The inspiration for this book comes from 'works of art on themes of mindfulness, meditation and reflection' and the result is twelve lovely melodies! They are all mostly gentle with flowing accompaniments and appealing harmonies so even the Spanish Dance has a rather laid-back feel. 'Just a Perfect Day' is especially good with its swing rhythms and relaxed outlook - real feel-good music! The digital download is easy to use and there is even a pull-out sheet of the images which could be used as a visual guide to help with understanding the title, or if you're very adventurous, as a starting point for some improvisation or composition. This book works on many levels and is great for those 'between grades' or 'let's play something different' moments. Everyone will love it!
