Description

This captivating collection of 14 new Pacific Preludes from the creator of Microjazz invites you on a voyage of musical discovery. Inspired by traditional music from the shores of the world's largest ocean, each Prelude weaves together native themes from countries across the Pacific Rim, including Australia, Canada, China, Costa Rica, Japan, Peru, New Zealand, and the United States. Christopher Norton's characteristically innovative popular music styles give this rich and varied musical landscape a fresh, contemporary sound. Ideal for intermediate to advanced-level keyboard players, these pieces are perfect for the concert platform and provide excellent teaching material.

An accompanying CD features stylish demonstration performances of each Prelude by Iain Farrington, bringing this musical journey to life.
