More about this title

About the Composer: Helen Marlais

Helen Marlais is a prolific composer whose works have become staples in piano education. Her writing combines strong pedagogical instincts with genuine musical substance, creating pieces that challenge students without overwhelming them.

Why we love this

This collection brings together curated solos that showcase real variety in sound and style, keeping late elementary and early intermediate students engaged across multiple lessons and recitals. The included teaching and practice guide from Yeeseon Kwon transforms these pieces into teaching opportunities, not just performance vehicles.

What to expect

Approachable yet imaginative, these pieces invite discovery without demanding perfection on first read. You'll find textures that surprise, melodies that sing naturally under the hands, and harmonic language that feels fresh without alienating younger players.

Who it's for

Late elementary and early intermediate piano students ready to explore a range of contemporary and classical-inspired styles. Teachers seeking a curated collection of accessible but musically substantive solos for lesson work, technique building, and recital programming.

How to get the most out of it

  • Use the recommended teaching and practice guide to identify technical focus areas before assigning each piece, so students know what they're building toward musically.
  • Work through the variety of styles in sequence across a term; shifting between contrasting musical characters keeps practice sessions fresh and reveals different aspects of each student's musicianship.
  • Listen actively to the pieces yourself before introducing them; your own engagement with the musical content will shape how seriously students approach these compositions.

How to use it

Scatter selections throughout the year as your students progress; the varied styles mean you can program these pieces strategically across recitals and studio events to balance technical growth with musical interest. The collection's internal breadth also supports lesson differentiation when multiple students are working at similar technical levels.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading varied rhythmic patterns in single and mixed meters
  • Interpreting style markings and performance indications
  • Balancing melody and accompaniment textures
  • Navigating key signatures across major and minor tonalities
  • Controlling dynamics and tone color at the keyboard
  • Building confidence with contemporary harmonic language
