Hidden within all of the 10 innovative piano solos in each volume are scales---sometimes ascending, sometimes descending---in one or both hands. What makes each book "Not Just Another Scale Book," however, is the accompanying CD that features wonderfully orchestrated background tracks. Book 1 features pieces written in both major and minor keys up to two sharps or flats. Book 2 has pieces written in major and minor keys using three to seven sharps. The pieces in Book 3 are written in major and minor keys using three to seven flats.

The pieces in this series are long-time favorites that have appeal for pianists of all ages. Very carefully correlated to standard piano method levels, each book contains arrangements that are musically appropriate to that level. The arrangements are teacher friendly, even for the teacher who is reluctant to add pop music to the curriculum. And the series is student friendly -- there will be willing practice! Titles: * Begin the Beguine * Evergreen * I Only Have Eyes for You * Stairway to Heaven * 'S Wonderful * Star Wars (Main Title) * Tea for Two * Theme from A Summer Place * The Thorn Birds (Main Theme) * The Wind Beneath My Wings * Your Smiling Face.
