Welcome to the wonderful world of Mother Goose - a world of nursery rhymes, songs, jingles, riddles, lullabies and love songs. From this timeless collection, we have selected eleven not too familiar Mother Goose rhymes (plus one original rhyme) and have set them to music that can be played by a second year piano student. We hope these songs will inspire the young pianist, teach him something of our English heritage, and provide countless hours of pleasure. In Volume 1 of this series, you will meet - A boy who goes to bed half-dressed A much disliked professor A reverend whose own sermon puts him to sleep A vendor selling hot pease Two men who settle a dispute in a most emphatic manner A couple arguing on the eve of their wedding A not too clever owl A worldly philosopher The loveliest of towns A little boy and a little girl doing who knows what in an alley A robin doing his thing Open up the pages and let the magic begin - These and other songs can be heard on www.behindthecupboard.com.
