The Skyward Solos, V. U. Level X: Jack and the Beanstalk in G Major and E Minor for Intermediate Piano (Andrea and Trevor Dow's Very Useful Piano Library)

Perfect for 1. Later elementary-level piano students who are ready for something mature-sounding, contemporary , and not out of reach. 2. Advancing pianist-teens whose busy lives have them stressed—this music is accessible, playable without requiring tons of practice, and with undercurrents of excitement to interest them. In short, a relief from difficult contest pieces!These songs spur the imagination as they follow a storyline, and offer the student time to gain ownership of certain patterns in certain keys. Best? They’re FUN! I look forward to more of these in more keys. The Cinderella Solos focus on C and A minor. This one on G and E minor. What’ll be next????

My students enjoys this book so much! If your looking for something to keep your teen students interested this is it!

Andrea Dow always creates music that makes my life as a piano teacher easier. Students love the sound of these pieces & I love that they are learning technic without boring traditional technic pieces. You can never go wrong with her music.

I am loving this modern fairytale theme and creative ways to have students immersing themselves in the keys of G Major and E Minor. The music has a wonderful storytelling quality and so many skill building aspects!

The creativity, variety and musicality continues with this V.U.Library resource for Intermediate Level playing in G Major and em. These pieces are sure to be intriguing and develop expression articulating this newest storyline.
