While teachers are not usually in a rush to nail down recital pieces for the little kids in their studio, getting an early start on your teens’ showstoppers is probably a good idea.
The difference between a good recital and a great recital is often well-practiced teens. Sure, everyone enjoys watching cute little preschoolers and, of course, their own children, but it is the older students that have the power to turn a recital into a show-stopping concert.
And, today, we have released just the music you need to stop any show!
For over three years people have been begging us to release this book. And with the release of its companion book last month (Guardians of Ballinmore) there was a resurgence in requests… teachers just had to have Guardians of Arranmore.
And… today’s the day you can get it!
New Release: Guardians of Arranmore – Teen Celtic Piano Solos
Today on Amazon, for the first time, we are releasing Guardians of Arranmore in print with many of your top favorite pieces expanded and made even more drool-worthy!
Guardians of Arranmore was one of our first big hits from PianoBookClub so we hold it near and dear to our hearts. We love seeing teens playing the tunes on YouTube and hearing back from teachers whose students just can’t get enough of it.
If you teach students who are fans of Twilight, The Hunger Games, The Maze Runner, The Fault In Our Stars, or anything deep, powerful and emotional, they are going to go crazy for this book.
Following an ancient legend in which a small band of mysterious youth protect the island of Arranmore from a vicious viking army, this book provides celtic-flavored character themes in each of the “white key” minor keys.
Inspire your teens with the legend, engage them with the original artwork, and then challenge them to learn all seven pieces in this book.
If you know your teens will go crazy for this book, head on over to Amazon and order your copy today. Oh… and there is a little surprise for all of you who have been asking for Guardians of Ballinmmore in print too 😉
What Teachers Have To Say About Our Guardians Series
Check out what teachers have been saying about The Guardians of Arranmore. When I re-read these reviews it makes me smile to know how many teachers play the Guardians music for their own personal enjoyment!
“I have just played your latest piano book – Guardians of Arranmore. I love, love, love this newest book. The music is so fabulous.”
“HOLY COW! I’ve never had a student get this excited over learning a piece, she LOVED it! She began to pick it up quickly and she kept repeating, “I love this, I LOVE this!”
“Your music has been such a great addition to my curriculum. My kids love it, and I’m having a lot of fun playing through this book!”
“The Guardians of Arranmore pieces are beautiful – I have played them every day since they arrived.”
“Both the teenagers and adults have really taken to the Guardians. It gives them such confidence to be able to play such lovely music.”
“My daughter liked the Guardians of Arranmore so much she has started writing a book about them. We will have to let you read it when she is done book 1. I think she is hoping to make it a trilogy.”
“Keeva’s Theme scored an ‘Outstanding Performance’ (in festival) and other teachers were very interested in this “new” music they heard!”
“My teens are all over this Guardians of Arranmore book. It’s almost comical. You definitely have your finger on what appeals to them. I’m grateful for that.”
Jen Wall says
Love the expanded versions! My book is ordered!
By the way I noticed when on Amazon that there is a third book – Castlemore – in this series. Did I miss it or is it still to come?
Andrea says
So glad you will enjoy the music! Guardians of Castlemore is coming soon! Stay tuned ☺️
Terry says
Is this series progressive, or are all three at about the same level?
Andrea says
Hi Terry – they are are at about the same level – Guardians of Arranmore is slightly easier 🙂
Barbara says
Just have to say, if you have teens in your studio, you HAVE to get this book! All my teen students love, love, love it! Oh so glad it’s out in hard copy…ordering mine today!
Barbara says
Hmm…went to Amazon but didn’t see the “surprise for those asking for Guardians of Ballinmmore in print.” I even put it in the search, but it’s not coming up. Am I missing something?? I wanted to order them together. Thought I should let you know in case there’s an Amazon glitch!
Andrea says
Hi Barbara! Thanks so much for your kind words! Ballinmore should pop up on Amazon at any time now – within hours we think! EDIT: It’s now up on Amazon 🙂
Barbara says
Whoo-Hoo! Thanks Andrea:)
Linda Hyland says
