Description:

Most students love to use the pitchbender. Sadly, in the most keyboard books, pitch bending isn’t used. With this book you will learn to use the bender. Not sometimes, no a lot. With 10 composed songs you’ll use the bender to make the music (the songs have been written in normal music notation (only some new signs are introduced for pitch bending), this making it possible to practise the songs at home even without having a bender).

This book is for students and players with experienced level!
