Students and teachers will continue to be inspired as they start this next level of Succeeding at the Piano. In addition to the fabulous music and all the concepts in level 2A, 2B includes new concepts such as: intervals of a sixth, finger crossings in preparation for one-octave major scales, C, G, D, A and F major scales and I-V7-I cadences, waltz bass, reading ledger lines below and above the staffs, legato pedaling, eighth rests and dynamics of pianissimo and fortissimo. The CD has both practice and performance tracks for many of the pieces which will help students learn and reinforce correct practice habits. The CD also provides students with an opportunity to play with a string quartet accompaniment recorded live in every unit!
