Little Peppers By Milne, Elissa

Little Peppers is the third book in a series of five by Elissa Milne, an Australian-based composer, teacher and writer. Each book is filled with fun jazz pieces that can be used both as pedagogical studies and as repertoire pieces. Little Peppers is around Grade 2 standard and each of the pieces has been written with the young pianist in mind, avoiding leaps that are difficult for small hands and incorporating relatively short, lighthearted pieces, and introduces a range of keys, rhythms and performance techniques. Technique is developed alongside musicality, helping young players to move towards grade exams and the other books in the series.
