 Do you have students that don’t celebrate Christmas, or those that prefer not to play religious music this time of year?
If you are like me, you are probably looking for ways to be sensitive to these students and their families, but also to make sure they feel included in your seasonal studio events. Luckily there are lots of great options for seasonal pieces that are secular in nature! Read on for a selection of my favorite seasonal, non-religious musical options for students at a variety of levels.  I am so excited to share my newest collection, now available in hardcopy and digital format!
"Rhapsodies and Reveries" features 11 evocative, early intermediate piano solos. From sweeping lyrical solos to fiery rhapsodic showcase solos, these emotion-filled pieces will appeal to students of all ages. Read on to see a few of my favorite pieces from the new collection!  Looking for fresh holiday music?
A few of my favorite arrangements from the "Medley Magic" and "A Rockin' Christmas" collections are now available as singles! Unlimited studio licenses for these pieces are also on sale for $5 for a limited time. Read on for more details about these unique holiday arrangements!  It was an exciting week here in the Ricker household, as we celebrated not one, but two birthdays!
Before we kick off a weekend of birthday fun, I wanted to share a free lead sheet activity that is a "must-have" for your studio. "Happy Birthday" is a song that I think every student should be able to play on command, and today I am sharing a lead sheet in an easy-to-sing key that can be customized for students at any level. Interested? Click "read more" to get your free copy of the "Happy Birthday" lead sheet! |
