Don Macdonald’s ‘When the Earth Stands Still’, is, in my view, one of the most beautiful and exquisite pieces of music ever written, and captures so wonderfully everything about this season; the time and place of this moment.

Review: The Piano Player, Wintertide Collection - David Barton Music The Wintertide Collection from Faber Music offers a lovely mixture of wintry pieces for the intermediate pianist.

There is a good mixture of pieces in the @fabermusic.bsky.social ‘Wintertide’ volume of ‘The Piano Player’ collection, which will especially please those who don’t want to be too weighed down by Christmas music this season.

Has anyone here used the free version of Microsoft Teams for online music lessons? Trying to figure out how to optimise the audio settings.

This is the first piano book I wrote! It’s a fun detective mystery for young beginners. Learn the tunes, solve the theory puzzles and follow the colourful comic based story. Focuses on the notes BAG in the bass clef (plus CDE in treble)
