Piano Method Book 1

English text only.Theory booklet included.Right from the first lessons with a pupil one must develop: - aural awareness: beauty of tone, rhythmic stability, expressiveness in musical phrasing.- attention to the techniques used to achieve good playing - posture, hand position, suppleness of wrist and arm.- the concentration necessary in all artistic disciplines. This method therefore involves: - exercises of a traditional type which allow good body and hand position to be achieved quickly. - pieces which develop musical awareness, knowledge of the keyboard and an understanding of different tonalities.
