Product description
Power Up! - ten short entertaining pieces in a variety of styles for solo instrument and piano. The structured technical and musical challenges make these pieces ideal for the developing instrumentalist of around grade three to five standard, or simply as short concert items. The CD provided includes both demo and accompaniment tracks on an acoustic grand piano. It is particularly useful for home practice or for those instrumentalists who do not have an accompanist.
Cowles Colin (* 1940) is an English composer and music teacher. He studied at Trinity College of Music at Cambridge and London University. He worked as a pedagogue until 1980 and has since became a freelance composer and performer. He has coached and conducted many County Youth Bands, Symphony Orchestras and Jazz Orchestras, and has adjudicated at music festivals. His work is almost always inspired by the English countryside and he has written more than 400 compositions. Colin plays a wide variety of instruments and has a wonderful sense of humour, which is also reflected in his pieces.
