Tanner, Mark: Tall Stories for Short Pianists. Easy Solos and Duets

Tall Stories for Short Pianists is an album of a dozen approachable piano solos, along with 5 duets (for student and teacher), pitched at the younger pianist. Each piece connects with a tale or story (some will be more immediately familiar than others), while the level of difficulty starts at ABRSM Prep Test/Trinity College Inital, with a couple nudging Grade 3. While in some cases the technical and reading difficulties have been kept to a minimum, other pieces include hand-position changes, hand-crossing, isolated high/low notes or brief chromatic features, in order to widen the interest. The intrepid pianist is warmly invited to take up a commanding presence at the piano (or keyboard) and perform with authority!
