Programme Notes

This set of student piano pieces, along with an accompanying story by Karen Moonah, explores the wonderful world of the Loobies—a fictional group who live on an island called Loobienox. Piano students have the opportunity to discover music in a fun and engaging way, just as our Loobie friends do in the story.

As a composer and teacher, I believe that people connect with music that evokes emotion or tells a story. This is what Loobienox is all about! Young performers will be able to play short pieces about characters or events that they can also read about.

The Isle of Loobienox features pieces suitable for students at various levels (not necessarily in order of difficulty). The contrasting tempi, dynamics, and articulation make these pieces a useful tool for developing technique while ensuring that piano students have fun at the same time.
