To honor my grandmother Claudia Ruddock-Vincent the concert pianist, her grandfather Theodore Dehon Ruddock the music professor, and my many other musical influences, I offer this book to do my part to keep the music alive. The Italian performance instructions all have English translations included, and are organized into a helpful glossary at the end of the book that includes page numbers of uses of the terms. Piano techniques are the main focus of this work, but chords, guitar notation, percussion and vocal arrangements have been added to allow for small ensembles. Play with your friends and family! If grandma taps along, show her the percussion diagram maybe! Still, all pieces stand alone perfectly well as solo performances.
