Elementary Repertoire
Fresh, lyrical, and confidence-building repertoire that develops fluency, phrasing, and expressive tone. Each piece offers musical depth in an approachable format students love to play.
This lyrical early-elementary duet is designed to strengthen early reading skills while inspiring musical expression. The student part reinforces essential staff landmarks—Middle C, Treble G, and Bass F—through flowing patterns and repeated motifs that promote fluency and confidence.

Equally effective as a solo, this piece offers both beauty and solid pedagogy in one graceful package.
Step into the sounds of the Middle Ages with Saltarello—a spirited, dance-like piano solo for mid to late elementary students. Brimming with rhythmic energy and medieval flair, this piece is as fun to play as it is to hear. Students will explore mixed articulations, pentascales, and triads, with just a touch of pedal to add shimmer. A lively recital piece that builds coordination, confidence, and excitement at the keys!
Inspired by the touching bond between a mother and daughter, “The Candle & the Hearth” captures the beauty of shared musical moments at the piano. In this piece, the mother is represented by the hearth—constant and grounding, the source of warmth and comfort in the home. The daughter is the candle—a smaller light, playful and bright, who will one day carry her glow out into the world.
Written for two elementary pianists, both parts are approachable and expressive, with each player taking turns with the melody. Flowing arpeggios and a clear, lyrical theme make it a rewarding piece to play together.
The Candle and the Hearth is well-suited for recitals, church services, or quiet moments at home between people who enjoy making music side by side.

It was inspired by the composer’s Alaskan Klee-Kai, Cinder.
