DESCRIPTION:
Not Exactly, but Good Enough I Guess Piano Teacher Girl I love the Showcase Series, but this book fell slightly flat for me. The pieces are not exactly on the "jazz" line. But, it's very simple and easy for beginning students. I would compare the pieces to ones you might find in lesson books. Not a lot to them, and extremely short. However, it's material I will definitely use as I have many students who love variety and don't want to alwyas play what everyone else has played before.
Various meters, tempos; C Major; alternating hands melodies; fixed position; Reading range: middle of the keyboard range; Treble and bass staff lines and spaces; 12 pieces: Bass Guitar Blues * Bass Guitar Rock * Blues Parade * Follow The Leader * Imitation * Jazz Time * Love Theme For A TV Series * A Minor Effort * Smooth Groove * Take A Rest * Tick Tock The Jazz Clock * Triple Play. Bill Boyd works his usual magic with these simple, yet truly jazzy little solos for the young beginner. (Educational Piano Library). Each piece has a catchy title
