What better way to start the new Piano Tunes year than with some little tunes to get those fingers moving! Here’s the first of 3 sets of exercises, made a little more fun with some contemporary sounds thrown in here and there. I’ve categorised them as Grade 2 but more advanced players would benefit from this kind of workout too.

This is a popular Latvian lullaby. A mother and father gather forest fruits and honey for their baby, or 'bear cub'. The left hand is simple in sound but takes some practice technically.

I'm desperate to get out in the garden and get planting a new area. But there's still frost in the forecast, so I have to be patient, and make up little tunes about it instead!

Welcome back! I’ve fallen off the piano stool a bit these last few weeks so these are perfect for getting the fingers working again. – and they sound good too! Happy New Year.
Falling off the stool? Take more water with it Jenny! Good to be back though! x
