Crimson Maple is a collection of 9 intermediate piano solos in a variety of styles. The programmatic Campers’ Lullaby weaves a tale about a pesky mosquito while the Railroad Blues provides a fun jazz work. Students, teachers and performers will play cover to cover finding recreational and performance works. The following works from Crimson Maple are now recommended repertoire for Conservatory Canada’s Contemporary Idioms program: Railroad Blues – Level 4; Lonely Day – Level 5; February Blessing – Level 7.
