A note from the composer:
“This updated edition of Through the Windowpane contains a set of solos based on poems by Robert Louis Stevenson. The pieces in this collection have been written for early-level pianists, giving them the opportunity to experience the wonderful rainbow of sound colors they can create at the piano.
All the pieces in Through the Windowpane feature a keyboard range of three to four octaves. The challenges in each piece are limited to specific technical and musical concepts necessary for successfully making the transition from beginning method books to classical repertoire. It will be of great benefit for students to listen to the audio recordings that accompany this edition to deepen understanding and encourage growth as musicians. The ultimate goal is to make these pieces sound like the poems. Above all, focus on the exciting experience of making music at the piano!”
