Abstract

"Inspired partly by watching my own sons' reaction to growing up in New Mexico, these intermediate piano solos were written for my younger students, but use a more sophisticated tonal/rhythmic language than many of their level. Pedal is not required for any of the pieces, and there is no dotted rhythm more complex than a dotted quarter note followed by an eighth."
