Reading Keyboard Music:coll.class Piano

As a beginning piano method, Reading Keyboard Music: College Class Piano, is the most effective approach to teaching the fundamental skill of note reading. It is unique because it teaches note reading by using Place Specific Names which relate visual and tactile patterns on the keyboard to patterns on the staff. By using Place Specific Names, the number of mental steps required to master note placement is reduced. The study of visual relationships between staff and keyboard patterns allows note placement to be easily taught. This approach has been proven significantly faster than using rhymes and gimmicks to memorize note placement. This is an effective way for anyone to learn the placement of notes on the keyboard. If English is not the student's native language, this is an essential way to acquire this information. Reading Keyboard Music: College Class Piano: Comprehensive Approach meets the standards of university level music programs. It emphasizes the uniquely effective reading approach through keyboard orientation, reading practice, and literature. It also stresses the develop-ment of musical skills through theory, technique, harmony, and improvisation. A Companion Packet of worksheets and take home tests is included.
