Listening and playing notes

These are notated scores rather than recordings. Expect the texture described by the complexity index: the easiest entries use block chords and a clear melody, while the index-1 and index-2 pieces add passing notes and independent lines. The collection runs to about 5 minutes, so most individual pieces are short. Check the scoring named on the file before printing. The complexity index is a rough proxy for notation density, not a formal grade.
