10 Original Solos for the Elementary Pianist Portraying Musical Visits Around the World

These 10 elementary solos display the excellent writing style and attention to detail that many teachers have come to expect from Martha Mier. Students will experience culture from around the world as they are guided on a musical tour through Spain, England, Australia, Mexico, Japan, and the United States.

“Ms. Mier consistently provides students and teachers with interesting music that is fun to play, interesting to listen to, and helps develop musicality.”- Progressions
