Cooper's Cafe (for Piano Solo)
 

Cooper's Cafe is a jazzy piece for piano of short duration. The recurring triplet motif moves it along at a moderate swing tempo. It is Elementary to Intermediate in difficulty. The soundbite plays the complete piece. The piece is based on the opening music of John Bartlett's second musical, which is set in a West London cafe and deals with the busy interactions of customers, their loves, lives and intrigue. On the surface all appears normal, but an undercurrent of sinister proportions threatens the calm.
