Ep 5: RCM Celebration Series Spotlight: Three Contemporary Pieces for Intermediate Students
The "Celebration Series" of repertoire books published by the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto have been a longtime favorite source of mine for discovering new pieces by living composers. Updated every seven years, I always find fresh pieces that eventually become old favorites. This week, I highlight three options for intermediate students from the level four, five, and six books- Peter Rudzik’s whimsical Happy Grasshopper, Nkeiru Okoye’s beautifully atmospheric Dusk, and the energetic Running for the Bus by Alexina Louie.
Truly Astounding Animals, by Paul Rudzik
African Sketches, by Nkeiru Okoye
Small Beautiful Things: For Piano, by Alexina Louie
