REVIEW at PIANODAO.COM
BY COMPOSER
In writing these pieces I have tried to capture images and ideas and present them musically, in a way that is clear and easy to grasp right from the start. Each piece has its own individual character, atmosphere and sound world. Every volume gives players the opportunity to engage with the full expressive range of the piano. I have included some pedal markings at specific points, but generally the pedal can be used as freely as each player wants. The message behind the Sound Sketches series is very simple – enjoy the music and make it your own; it’s waiting to be discovered.

Murray McLachlan, International Piano Magazine –
I find it hard to over-praise this accessible and vibrantly conceived selection. What is special here is that Lynch succeeds triumphantly in realising his noble ambition of writing relatively easy music that has substance…”
PIano Teacher –
These ‘sound images’ are evoked through strong melodic ideas which hide their technical challenges within a sense of the delight that can be had from conjuring music from the keyboard. Pieces to be enjoyed, and performed!
Music Teacher Magazine –
Short exquisitely drawn sketches…these are lovely to play and would be enjoyed by any pupil.
