Description

In response to requests from educators, master arranger Dan Coates has developed a new piano library specifically designed for students. Each volume of the Dan Coates Popular Piano Library features arrangements that are appropriately leveled, along with guidance on phrasing, pedaling, and fingering. This collection allows both students and teachers to delve into the engaging realm of popular music, while simultaneously reinforcing the concepts covered in their lessons.

The library includes a variety of well-known titles such as "The Aba-Daba Honeymoon," "Barney Google," "Be My Little Baby Bumblebee," "Cheeseburger in Paradise," and "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor on the Bedpost Overnight?" Other selections feature "Doodle Doo Doo," "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh!," "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini," "Jeepers Creepers," "Little Sir Echo," and "When Banana Skins Are Falling (I'll Come Sliding Back to You)."
