Piano Mix 1 - Blackwell, ed.

Description

The repertoire in Piano Mix 1, compiled and edited by David Blackwell for ABRSM, 2015, reflects the type of music in the ABRSM Piano syllabuses: the pieces are mostly at Grade 1 standard, helping pianists progress to Grade 2 towards the end of the book. Every arrangement is enjoyable to play because it fits well under the pianist's hands while remaining faithful to the original work. Arrangements by Quintus Benziger, David & Kathy Blackwell, Alan Bullard, Peter Gritton, Nikki Iles, Nancy Litten, Anne Marshall, Christopher Norton, Robert Pell & Martin White.
