This book is a compilation of well-loved baba nyonya songs, reintroduced in simplified arrangements. The aim is to encourage young pianists to look for rhythmic patterns and styles, to play with awareness and to use visualisation, in order to bring the music to life. Simple ornamentations are added, together with theoretical questions, to help the pianist make a theory/practical connection.
