In this episode, find 20+ emotive teen piano repertoire picks that appeal to older or adult students, complete with play-through demos.
Teen and adult students require extra repertoire planning, because you're not often teaching from a method book, but finding specific pieces that appeal to their unique tastes. They often gravitate toward darker, moodier, rich, chordal-based music with repetitive lines.
We'll look at themes from movies and popular new-age style composers, from Yiruma to Einaudi, in this episode, (and save you some time playing through them all yourself!)
