Resolve (Dawn Ivers) - Intermediate

A dynamic intermediate piano solo in G Major that begins timidly and grows in confidence and power, resolving on a peaceful, restful note.

I came up with this musical theme during a particularly frustrating month where I felt very tired and overwhelmed. I found myself playing it several times, and it sort of became my little rallying cry for pulling through that time and coming out on the other side having experienced some personal growth, and so the title became 'Resolve.'

All of Me (John Legend) - Early Intermediate

 This piece provides opportunities to practice syncopation as the melody follows Legend's vocal line, while the harmony stays on the beats. And true to the original 2013 recording, this arrangement is in Ab Major/F minor, and so provides good practice playing with 4 flats for early intermediate pianists. Add the damper pedal and enjoy!
