Ben Crosland

Magic Beans!

28 Sketches for Adventurous Beginners' is the subtitle of this magical new collection, by British composer Ben Crosland. These short pieces start off very easy, fusing serious pedagogical elements with moments of humour and imaginative flair. As they venture further into the score, teachers and students will find slightly more advanced repertoire, which should keep them inspired as they progress through Grade 1 and towards Grade 2 (UK examination levels). The score, as with all the collections designed by Ben Crosland, is aimed to last at least one year in the hands of the interested student, rather than be used for one or two works of the collection.

The score is illustrated by Maggie Lewinowicz.
