The CD, played by Allan Alexander, gives the musician the advantage of being able to hear how these songs can be played and will make the learning process easier. This is a high quality Digital recording (DDD). In addition to helping the player become familiar with the music, it will also be a source of listening pleasure.

I started writing music because I bought almost everything that was available and I was still looking for things to play, so I started trying to write some. I threw a lot of music away, but every once in a while I would get it right and I couldn’t stop playing it. Those are the tunes that I kept. From a composer’s point of view, the pieces in this collection are some of my favorite, along with the Venezuelan Waltzes, but then I tend to get excited easily. I think “Danza Ritmico 10” is one of the finest pieces I have written, and every time I come back to “A Summer’s Waltz” I fall in love with it all over again. “Dance from a Different Land” was one of the first pieces I wrote, and as with most things I write, when I come back to it, I scratch my head and wonder how I did it. My golden rule is that if I have to ask myself if it’s good, it’s not. If I’m not excited about playing it, no one else will be.
