Cornick: Style Collection Waltz Time Crafted

Play with style using Mike Cornick’s Style Collection. This selection of waltzes has been arranged for the middle-grade pianist to play and enjoy and includes pieces from a wide range of sources. No longer are waltzes composed only for the ballroom and many included here have become all-time favourites through the media of stage and film. Pieces such as Moon River, Skaters’ Waltz, I Feel Pretty, the Waltz from Sleeping Beauty and A Time for us are just a few examples from this collection. The CD provides the option of playing along as part of an ensemble which is both confidence-building and fun, while the demonstration tracks for listening are not only inspiring but hugely entertaining.

• Favourite pieces in a variety of waltz styles from Schubert’s Longing to Shostakovich’s Jazz Waltz arranged for the intermediate-level pianist

• An enjoyable and rewarding way to become acquainted with a variety of styles and extend your pianistic skills

• Play along in your own ensemble using the CD minus-one tracks – a pleasure on your own and when entertaining others
