Show Notes and Links

Thanks for joining Charlene Shelzi Jarvis and me as we share some repertoire that’s worth repeating, worth recycling over and over again in your studio. This is not just any list, this list guarantees pieces that are kid-tested and teacher-approved.

We set a time for 20 minutes and split our conversation into three brief episodes for a little extra convenience for you.

As promised, sign up below for the downloadable PDF that features the title, playing level, links to videos of each piece so you can listen to them and links to purchase the sheet music.

A huge shout out to Charlene for sharing her portion of the list. She rocks. It’s obvious that her students are lucky to have her.
