Earth and Sky, Book 4

Intermediate

The journey into nature continues with this collection that engages the senses and allows students to experience the universe in an imaginative way. Every pianistic piece is rewarding and the styles are so varied: Sunshine in the Glen has a lush melody; Rockasaurus has a cool, rock beat; A Star for Finnian has a wee hint of Celtic flavor in G mixlolydian mode; Stirring Volcano is a sleeping volcano beginning to stir; The Rains of Autumn is Impressionistic and introspective; and you can see/feel the shimmering light bounce off the water in Sunset on the Lake. This is Mary Leaf at her best!
