Play Book Release Party

You're Invited!

To a party celebrating the release of Play Book, music book and CD

Sunday June 17, 2012 7:00pm
hosted by Carroll Ann Bottino
at her Pacem Music Studio
62 Sherburne Road South, Lexington, MA

 

We'll start the party right after the Pacem June concert, around 7pm

What's this all about?

Play Book is a new a collection of piano pieces for beginning to advanced students by Pamela J. Marshall and Pacem piano students. Back in 2007, I did a composing and improvising workshop with the piano students of Carroll Ann Bottino. I wrote a special piece for each student, and several students wrote pieces too. I've collected them in a book, which I've just published, and I made a recording too, on the lovely piano at Middlesex Community College.

Now we're gathering to celebrate and I hope you can join us!

What will happen?

We'll eat some sweets, play some music from Play Book, improvise around the piano.

We'll be online too, tweeting with hashtag #playbookmusic, and commenting on Pam's Elusive Music blog. Get the music ahead of time and post your own performance of a Play Book piece!
