Innovative pianist/composer Anne Britt creates a memorable trip through canyons, island paradises, ancient rocky structures, magnificent waterfalls, and Amazon jungles in her new original piano solo book, "Departure." With twelve original pieces, "Departure" contains a musical adventure for every taste. Take a trip to a Cuban island paradise in the opening solo "Cayo Coco Island" with its exotic melody and rhythms. Or hop on for a wild ride on a southern Oregon mountain trail in "Eight Dollar Boogie" with its lively boogie woogie beat. Looking for an inspiring hike? "Temple of Aeolus" captures the majestic grandeur of reaching a summit with breathtaking views in all directions. Stop by "Little Niagara" with its bright, bounding melodies that evoke images of cascading water. "Erratic Rock" will shake your world with a feel that is just that - erratic! This piece incorporates fun and challenging rhythms and time signature changes that create unpredictable, yet exciting, patterns and movement. More of a homebody? The book concludes with a meditative piece titled "Journey of Remembrance," reminding us that not all trips worth taking have to be outside of our front door - sometimes the best journeys are those of remembrance. An adventurous delight for the intermediate to late intermediate pianist, "Departure" is a solo book that will keep you coming back for more.
