The Compositions series
Graham Lyons has compiled all the best material from his previous volumes, written lots of new pieces, and included a backing CD. The CDs are also available separately. This collection combines the best elements of many styles of music: Rock, Dance, Classic, Romantic, Jazz, Boogie, Folk. Inspired and crafted pieces to excite the players and make them want to practise.
The piano accompaniments are available on the companion CD (printable in pdf format) OR in a separate piano accompaniment book (selected titles only). Also on the CD: 'extras' which include ensemble arrangements in pdf format to print out.
Each of the 30 pieces in this book is unique and unforgettable. This upgraded edition now includes a backing CD with quick reference track list printed on a card.
N.B. - Useful Music regret that some of the CDs accompanying the books are proving difficult to read on a computer. To address this problem, we have provided links to those individual piano accompaniments that are required for ABRSM and Trinity/Guildhall examinations from this page (see links on the right - Adobe PDF Files). Alternatively, the complete piano accompaniments and all the 'extras' on the CD can be downloaded from the Spartan Press website.
