A collection of Grade 3 & 4 pieces covering a variety of rhythms commonly encountered in the Boogie & Blues genre.

Saturday Night Boogie
An upbeat, fun to play Grade 3 piano boogie with swing (jazz) eighths over a walking bass. This boogie needs to be played in a relaxed manner with good rhythm and accents in the syncopated bars.

Rocking The Blues
This upbeat Grade 3 blues piece has an eighth note (quaver) LH walking bass pattern, with some staccato articulations in the RH. Eighth notes (quavers) should be played straight. 

Jitterbug Boogie
This lively Grade 3 boogie was inspired by the swing dancers of the early 20th C. LH provides a driving walking bass while the RH plays syncopated rhythms and piano stabs.

Train Ride Boogie
This Grade 3 boogie has a familiar, popular chugging train style LH. The RH plays
blues scale patterns and syncopated rhythms. Eighth notes (quavers) should be swung.

Boogie 1-4-5
A lively Grade 3 boogie rock focusing on Primary Triads in root position. This piece requires well coordinated hands, a neat staccato touch and quick chord changes. Eighth notes (quavers) are best played straight.

Boogie Train
A lively, fun to play Grade 4 piano boogie with a typical LH boogie bass. The LH bass is a common but difficult pattern requiring flexibility. Students should be able to span octaves comfortably before playing this piece.

1st Inversion Boogie
An upbeat Grade 3 piano boogie in the key of C Major. RH focuses on 1st inversion triads and is played over a steady walking bass. Attention to articulations and accents is needed to convey the jaunty character of this piece.

Chameleon Boogie
Inspired by the chameleons' unusual rocking movements when walking, this fairly lively Grade 3 boogie blues is based on a typical I IV V progression. Standard fingering for chromatic scales has been used for the turns. Eighth notes (quavers) should be lightly swung.

Jingle Bell Boogie
A lively, fun to play Grade 4 boogie arrangement of this popular Christmas carol. LH plays a fairly easy walking bass in the verse, before breaking into a well known boogie pattern for the chorus. LH needs to be relaxed, have flexibility and the ability to span the broken octaves comfortably.

By Matt Johnson. By Matt Johnson. Arranged by John D. Wattson. Contemporary,Instructional,Jazz,Multicultural,New Age,World. Score. 8 pages. Dolce & Nuit Productions #933008. Published by Dolce & Nuit Productions (A0.1348191).

This delicate and nuanced solo piano work expresses a melancholic yearning for reconnection with a heartfelt melody floating over a gently flowing rhythmic pattern. Playing the notes is not difficult, so pianists may interpret the music from their own emotional points of view. Most of the piece is in a slow 5/4 time, with a middle passage in 3/4, before returning to 5/4.

Performers should aim to evoke self-preservation clarity. Learning to let go of those we love and move on is a painful experience to journey through. Yet, letting go does not mean loving less.

The John D. Wattson Series showcases the music of Matt Johnson with abridged and accessible piano solo arrangements.
Contemporary lyrical and rhythmic repertoire for piano students of varying degrees.

Composed by Yvonne Johnson. Contemporary,Instructional. Score. 21 pages. Yvonne Johnson #1071993. Published by Yvonne Johnson (A0.1495476).

A collection of 6 lyrical and descriptive pieces mostly focusing on flowing arpeggios and broken chords. Performance notes have been included at the end of the book.

The Sandpipers
In Rondo form, this flowing Grade 3 study was inspired by the little sandpipers running and foraging along the shoreline. LH arpeggios are based on 4 chords only while the RH plays scale and broken chord patterns.

Moths
A lively and lyrical piano study inspired by the little moths fluttering around an outside light. In the key of C Minor, this piece focuses on primary triads. RH broken chords in root position and 2nd inversion are played against 2 octave arpeggios in the LH. 

Petit Oiseau (Little Bird)
Study in A Minor focusing on trill technique. Care should be taken to keep relaxed and not strain the 4th and 5th fingers. LH has a simple broken chord bass pattern to enable students to concentrate on an even RH trill.

Butterflies
Inspired by the beautiful butterflies that dance and flutter around the garden, this grade 3/4 study in broken chords and scale patterns should be played in a free, flowing manner. The given fingering is a suggested one only.

Longing
A gently flowing contemporary piece with LH arpeggios and some RH broken octave passages. This solo needs to be played freely and with much expression. Sensitive pedaling and a cantabile touch will help convey the mood of the piece.  

Quiet Reflection
Quiet Reflection is a flowing piano solo describing a moment of contemplation and reflection. This piece needs a cantabile touch and an imaginative, sensitive interpretation.

Composed by Yvonne Johnson. Instructional. Score. 16 pages. Yvonne Johnson #1069916. Published by Yvonne Johnson (A0.1493264).

A collection of pieces mostly focusing on staccato technique.

Happy Tappin'
A jaunty Level 3 study written to help students develop an easy chromatic technique. The RH plays short chromatic passages over an ostinato bass.

Jumping For Joy
A lively Grade 2 study in LH crossing RH. This piece requires agility, a neat staccato touch and legato pedal technique in the A Minor section. The 2nd finger is a better option for students getting their hands tangled in the last 4 bars.

Trick or Treatin'
A lively Level 3 study in toccata technique. Written with minimal movement out of position for either hand to help students focus on neat hand co-ordination. In the key of C Minor.

First Tango
A lively piano piece written to help students co-ordinate the Habanera rhythm. The 2 bar intro establishes the rhythmic pattern, which stays in a 5 finger position throughout the chord changes. There are sustained notes and rests in some LH bars to help students when the RH develops into broken chord and eighth note patterns. 

Toccatina Frolic
This very lively Grade 3 study in G Minor focuses on toccata technique. Quick position changes are made easier with both hands playing staccato throughout.
This piece should be played in a buoyant, playful manner.

The Barn Dance Rag
A lively Grade 2, square-dance inspired rag using easy hand positions and primary triads. RH plays in a C Major 5 finger position throughout. The LH 'down-up' articulations use C, G and F Major chords. This piece should be played in a happy, buoyant manner.
