Price: $7.95
Contents: 11 Piano Solos, lyrics / 28 pages
Level: Beginner / 5-Finger

Chanukah Piano Solos for Kids includes 11 of the most beloved traditional songs associated with the Feast of Lights. Teachers will find that students quickly master these arrangements of familiar melodies, and that both students and parents appreciate the opportunity for this meaningful music to be incorporated into the piano lesson.

This edition, as all editions in the Piano Solos for Kids Series, features solo arrangements--complete lyrics are included in text form at the end of each piece, but not within the music itself.

Pieces appear in order of difficulty. This collection is intended to serve as a repertoire and reading supplement that correlates with Level 1 and Level 2 grades of standard piano methods, utilizing key signatures, rhythmic values (notes and rests) and editorial markings appropriate for beginning students during their first year or second year of study.
