Carroll, Walter - Forest Fantasies

Forest Fantasies was inspired by the reading of Edmund Spencer's poems of elfin lore and is of one of the most famous works by brilliant children's composer Walter Carroll, the Beatrix Potter of learner piano music, whose use of music, poetry and art in his now classic albums have appealed to successive generations of children. As a result they are still widely used on exam syllabi and by teachers around the world a century after they were written. This volume contains nine pieces designed to develop the players phrasing and pedalling technique. Suggested grade 3.
