Composed by Quentin Walston. This edition: pdf. 20th Century, 21st Century, Contemporary, Instructional, Jazz. Score. 1 pages. This Is Jazz #1202710. Published by This Is Jazz (A0.1634748).Purple Lights is a lyrical and evocative piano solo for mid-level beginners that beautifully captures the quiet wonder of nighttime travel—like watching city lights blur past from the back seat of a car. This introspective piece invites young pianists to explore expressive playing and musical imagery, making it a standout addition to any recital or teaching repertoire.
A recurring rhythmic motif ties the melody together, providing an excellent opportunity for students to solidify their understanding of ties and eighth notes in a musical, memorable way. The use of modal harmony adds depth and a gentle sense of mystery, leading to a satisfying and thoughtful conclusion.
With its expressive mood, accessible technique, and storytelling potential, Purple Lights is perfect for students developing their musical sensitivity and rhythmic confidence.
Purple Lights is composed by Quentin Walston, jazz pianist, composer, and founder of This Is Jazz, a jazz appreciation and education company.
