Description

Composed at the elementary level, Through the Windowpane is a collection of seven engaging piano solos.

A note from the composer:

“Through the Windowpane is a prequel to A Child’s Garden of Verses, my first set of solos based on poems by Robert Louis Stevenson. The playing level of this new collection is easier than the first book. The pieces have been written for the early level pianists, giving them the opportunity to experience and experiment with the wonderful rainbow of sound colors they can create at the piano.

All the pieces in Through the Windowpane feature a keyboard range of at least three to four octaves. I have tried to limit the challenges in each piece to specific technical and musical concepts necessary for successfully making the transition from the beginning method book to early classical repertoire. Pedal markings can be adjusted to suit the student’s ability: more pedal may be added with appropriate teacher guidance.”

Chee-Hwa Tan has a passion for nurturing the art and love of music making in pianists of all ages and levels. Her compositions encourage students to explore and express sound images at the piano while developing specific technical skills necessary for artistic playing.

Currently the Head of Piano Pedagogy at the University of Denver Lamont School of Music, Ms. Tan teaches both graduate and undergraduate piano pedagogy. She is a specialist in curriculum development for pre-college piano and class piano teaching and has served on the piano pedagogy faculties at the Oberlin Conservatory and Southern Methodist University. Over the years, her students have distinguished themselves as performers, teachers, and life long music makers.
