Piano Music by Women Composers, Book 1 (Upper Elementary to Lower Intermediate Level)

When editor Immanuela Gruenberg set out to compile these collections, she searched for the following: beautiful, interesting compositions that students will love playing, teachers love teaching, and audiences will appreciate while showcasing as many female composers as possible. Book 1 features 40 upper elementary to early intermediate level pieces and Book 2 features 30 intermediate to upper intermediate level pieces from a total of 21 women composers. Books include short bios about each composer as well as a preface by the editor.
