Flying Bird

This collection tells little stories on the piano, written for some very young pianists.  Each title sets a musical and technical challenge.  Individual pieces may be put together to tell a longer story.
The pieces are ordered progressively, with some requiring simple preliminary exercises.  Easy to start with (using grace notes, playing legato and staccato), they become gradually more demanding as different fingerings, pedal use, phrasing and dynamics are introduced. 
Articulation, phrasing and tempo markings in this edition represent one possible interpretation; they may be changed or varied at will.  The composer is delighted for her creative work to be developed further: titles presented in two versions give examples of this, showing that the bird can shimmer in different colours.
