Thanks for that roseamelia. Just so happens I am on the lookout for easy tunes with pedal changing exercises to have a go at as I've only done one with my teacher. Will see if I can copy it out in the morning (local time here 2105), if not could u email it to me if that is ok??

You think it's neat to Thal?

not to be rude but I don't think It would be necessary send to you. What you could do is copy it down on a piece of paper and follow it. Make sure not to make any mistakes do it with a pencil so you can erase any mistakes. That's what I do. Is that OK with you?

Yeah fine. maybe Pianostreet should have it in their members library for learners!

There is a website where you can print off music manuscript in any key sig, time sig, or stave formation that I came across before I gave up playing piano last time, and it's all totally free - but I cannot remember the name of it...

Used Google to locate it, it's called blanksheetmusic.net

Sorry roseamelia, but I haven't had chance to do Raisins and Almonds. It's been homework and all the grade 3 scales and arpeggios, plus a bit of laundry.

Poems of Ecstasy – Scriabin’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
