The River at the End of Day

Photo: The river is the photo is the great Mekong River which runs through much of South East Asia. The photo shows the Thai provincial town of Mukdahan, seen from the other side of the river in the small Laos town of Savannakhet. The small ferry boat is returning home at the end of the day.

This is a collection of ten very easy piano pieces, some of them consisting only of whole notes (semibreves) and quarter notes (crotchets). Click the "Look!" link to see a preview of the music, click the "Listen!" link to download an MP3 audio file of the music and click "Download music" to do just that. By the way, don't try to print out the preview of the music - it is just a small low-quality photo file to give you an idea of the music.

All the piano parts have been converted into high quality Adobe Acrobat files that you can print out. This is a free application and you can download your own copy of the software by clicking here.

NEW! Now you download a full-colour cover page, so that you make a professional-looking album.

    

Just print out all the pieces, with the pages back to back, then print out the cover on A4 photo paper. Click here to download the cover page. It is a high quality pdf file, so it may take a few minutes to download. Take the music pages and the cover to a local printing shop to have a spiral binder fitted (like the one shown above). They are very cheap and help to keep you music flat. If you want, you can get the shop to put a transparant film over the cover to keep it clean. Make sure you have all the pages in the correct order before binding!
