White Notes, Black Notes, Key Notes by Alan Ridout

These elementary pieces are based on an unusual idea: all the white-note modes are used, interspersed with pieces in modes derived for the black notes; and the final piece introduces an element of bitonality, with the left hand on the white notes and right hand on the black. The composer has also incorporated a number of different forms in order to further their instructional value.
"'Carefully composed, and systematically exploring single facets of technique at at time.. The layout is clear as can be, the fingering fully but economically indicated, there is scope for pedalling and shaping of melodic lines, and it is all within reach of a Grade 2 pupil.' Music Teacher"
