A Perfect 10; Book 1; is a collection of piano solos designed to promote musical excellence for the elementary-level pianist. Melody has chosen a favorite teaching piece from the four stylistic periods---Baroque; Classical; Romantic; and Contemporary---and written six original pieces in Jazz; Blues; Ragtime; Latin; Ballad; and Showstopper styles. These 10 solos provide students with technical challenges as well as expressive opportunities for musical growth in mood; rhythm; melody; harmony; form; articulation; and dynamics. Students do not have to be an Olympic hopeful to achieve a perfect "10;" but they might feel like one as they practice and perform these selections! Titles:* Blue Shoes Blues* Dance* Got Those Monday Blues* March in C Major* March G Major* Ragtime Fun* Spanish Nights* Springtime* Study* Trampoline Tricks* Wishing Well Waltz
