Teresa Young's arrangement of Marina Diamandis' gorgeous The State of Dreaming came about as most of hers do, because a talented piano student wanted to play it as a piano solo. Enjoy interpreting your version of this beautiful song.

Marina's in-your-face rant appeals powerfully to girls and women intent on not swallowing pop-culture's perfectionist koolaid. So it deserves a solo piano version with equal attitude. Teresa Young's arrangement, requested by an excellent teen pianist, is a just-right stretch for players with advanced intermediate skills. Try it as a pop recital piece!
