HL Writes:”Alaska's resident composer Lynda Lybeck-Robinson vivdly portrays dramatic and impressive scenes of Alaska life in these eight intermediate level piano solos. Perfect for a big recital splash, the variety of styles and pianistic challenges deliver a bonus by sounding much more difficult than they are to play. Great motivation for developing pianists! Pieces include: Aurora Borealis • Gold Miner's Lullaby • Hungry Sea • Iditarod • Raven Play • Russian Holiday • Summer Bay Love • Williwaw (NFMC 2014-2016 Festival Bulletin selection).”

HL writes: “In the Bering Sea's Aleutian Islands, “williwaw” describes the funnels of spray that whip upward from the whitecaps in a sudden violent wind. Alaskan composer Lynda Lybeck-Robinson captures this energy in a perfectly choreographed sound picture for piano. “
