Beginner Piano Solos Middle C Position Five-Finger format
This is a collection of 20 hymns and spirituals arranged for beginning piano students. These arrangements are formatted in the traditional five-finger style with the melody split between the hands and without key signatures. All 20 songs are written in Middle C Position where all notes are played singly centered around Middle C (diagrams are provided showing notes and finger placement).
No fingering is notated on the sheet music to encourage students to learn to read the notes instead of using the fingering numbers to play the song. Thus, this collection makes a great sight-reading book, especially if some of the songs are unfamiliar.
Some songs require playing the B-flat note in the left hand or the F-sharp note in the right hand. For the few songs that use one of these two black notes, the flats or sharps are displayed beside the note on the staff, not in the key signature (special diagrams are provided showing finger placement for the sharps and flats used).
These arrangements are perfect for introducing classic Christian songs to beginning pianists. They can be used as supplementary repertoire for first year piano students. Lyrics are included for sing-along enjoyment.
Song titles included in this collection: Always Cheerful Amazing Grace Count Your Blessings Crown Him with Many Crowns Footsteps of Jesus For the Beauty of the Earth Holy, Holy, Holy I Have Decided to Follow Jesus I Shall Not Be Moved I'm So Glad Jesus Lifted Me Jesus Shall Reign Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee Nearer, Still Nearer Peace Is Flowing Like a River Stand Up! Stand Up for Jesus! Sweet By and By There Is Joy in That Land This Little Light of Mine We Gather Together Whiter Than Snow

20 Easy Hymns and Spirituals, Book 2
I like the arrangements in the Middle C position for young beginner students to learn songs they know quickly. This helps them be encouraged to practice as well as play at their churches. I also like being able to purchase, download, and print without waiting on an order to arrive or leaving my house.
