If you had asked me what songs were in my head last August, I would have sheepishly said that it was tunes sung by Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Train…just to name a few. Now lest I lose my diehard classical music friends in disinterest, let me encourage you to ask just about any of your students if they know who these people are. I’ll bet their eyes will immediately light up as they ask if you have any of their pieces they can play.
I know this book is going to be popular with my students, and I’ll bet yours will be begging to play from it too! The new book is called Contemporary Pop Hits and it includes the following pieces:
- All the Right Moves (Ryan Tedder)
- Baby (Justin Bieber)
- Breakout (Miley Cyrus)
- Hey, Soul Sister (Train)
- Love Story (Taylor Swift)
- Lovebug (Jonas Brothers)
- When I Look at You (Miley Cyrus)
I hope you’ll find this a useful book of arrangements to supplement your core curriculum and motivate your students to continue studying so that they can play all kinds of music that they love!
This book looks great. Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Thanks so much Wendy – I’ll but it today as you are SO right 🙂
