A beautifully illustrated collection of six early-grade piano pieces, each inspired by a major classical style and introduced by a cast of whimsical vegetables. With music by Kristina Arakelyan, artwork by Rosie Brooks and guidance from Sir Edward Elgarlic, this book nurtures stylistic understanding and musical imagination from the beginning.
Discover the rich flavours of classical music through The Musical Vegetable Patch, a vibrant collection of six early-grade piano pieces by acclaimed composer Kristina Arakelyan. Each piece is styled after a key musical era and presented by a charming vegetable character, making the journey both educational and delightfully imaginative.
The book is brought to life by Rosie Brooks’ exquisite hand-painted ink and watercolour illustrations, creating a warmly engaging world that young pianists will want to return to again and again.
Guided throughout by the moustachioed maestro Sir Edward Elgarlic, players are encouraged to listen, explore and grow into confident musicians. A bonus QR code provides an extra downloadable piece to continue the adventure at home.
