10 Expressive Piano Pieces to Color Your Days
Express yourself! No matter who you are or how you feel there is a piece to capture your mood. The Color Collection offers many opportunities to explore how music can express the way you feel. Gray Day is “for slow days when you wear your pajamas all day,” and Yellow Boots is “for friends who splash in puddles of sunshine together.” This book is fast becoming a favorite of studio recitals and music festivals.
As you explore the articulation, dynamics and key signatures in the pieces you will discover how music creates moods to express the way you feel. Music that inspires a love for the piano!
This collection is inspired by Patricia Godwin’s book I Feel Orange Today (Annick Press). It is a charming book that compares moods to colors, and how you feel on certain days. I recommend that you find this book. The poetry may help you understand how to express the music.

Reviews:
“…these intermediate level pieces are sure to grab the imagination of lots of piano students!” ~ Natalie Weber, Music Matters blog, CA
“…I love your color book and hope to be passing on my student copy to someone this fall… The other copy, I’m keeping for ME ME ME!” ~ Libby, VA
“Thank you, Rebekah, for your delightful, imaginative melodies that have captured the essence of the feelings expressed in my book ‘I Feel Orange Today’.” ~ Patricia Godwin (author), BC
“One of my students is learning your Blue Train in the [Canadian National Conservatory of Music’s] Making Tracks, and enjoying it immensely.” ~ Peggy L’Hoir, SK
“…the music arrived and I love it…. I particularly loved “White Drift”, as did some of my intermediate level players who really go for the touchy feely sound.” ~ Heather, ON
“I discovered your book at an APTA conference several years ago here in Alberta. When I introduced your book and played some of the pieces, [my student’s] lights went on and he is enthusiastically practicing the first 3 pieces in the book as preparation for the Grade 2 CNCM performance exam next June.” ~ Andrea, AB
