SUZANNE CIANI-NEW AGE PIANO

I bought this book after hearing "Neverland" and being caught by the interesting melody. To my surprise, my favorite in the book turned out to be "Tuscany" and bitersweet, haunting melody that has enraptured me. Her music is very simple, very repetitious and predictable but still a good read and allows a pianist to infuse his or her own expression to the piece.

Opens The Heart Better Than Words

This book features some of my favorite melodies. I truly enjoy this music both as a listener and a musician. The music is easy to read and the arpegios, chords and melodies envelop me in a sense of joy and comfort. Soothing, relaxing and most of all, breathing with love. When I play the piano, these are the emotions I like to express. I've enjoyed every minute spent practicing and playing these songs.

Enjoyable to Play

I have found that the more I play these pieces, the more I love them. The music encompasses a wide variety of moods and a nice mix of styles. For the most part, the music is fairly easy to play and I appreciate the fingering designed for a smaller hand. It is well worth trying.

Wonderful Music

This book has a fine collection of really great sounding pieces. Ciani has a way of writing beautiful, relaxing songs that are fun and enjoyable to play. Any of these songs work well when that enevitable "oh you play piano, can you play me something" comes.
