Volume 1, Beginning

These sound files are to give you an idea of the pieces in the anthology. They aren't all perfect, but they're free! The pianist on the Vol. 1 recordings is William Wingfield, except for The Marionettes and Dance of the Gnomes, which were played by Amanda Arrington.. The recording volume level is quite low on these, so earphones are a good idea.

Volume 1 piano accompaniment files for download

These files are provided for free to help in practice (and for fun!) To tweak tempos, I recommend "The Amazing Slow-Downer" (​www.ronimusic.com/) or some similar program. Pianist is Alicia Willard.

Volume 2, Intermediate 1
