Federation Trios

Who it's for

• Piano teachers introducing ensemble playing to young students
• Private instructors seeking collaborative recital pieces for motivated groups
• Studio directors building three-hand piano arrangements into studio events

What's inside

• Grand Trios for Piano series by Melody Bober in five books (Early Elementary through Intermediate)
• Works by Vandall, Clark, Grill, Alexander, and other composers for one piano, six hands
• Sheet music and PDF digital downloads across Early Elementary to Intermediate levels
• Pieces suitable for recitals, with some seasonal selections

Things to consider

Match the book level to your students' current abilities: Bober's Book 1 works best for first-time ensemble players, while Books 4 and 5 suit intermediate pianists ready for more complex coordination. Sheet copies are essential since each performer needs their own part, so consider how many trios you plan to coach before ordering. These pieces work well for recitals because the arrangement keeps all three players on one bench, requiring minimal stage space and creating an engaging visual moment for audiences.
