Suzuki Piano School
The New International Edition of Suzuki Piano School, Volume 1 includes French, German and Spanish translations as well as a newly recorded CD performed by internationally renowned recording artist Seizo Azuma. Now the book and CD can be purchased together or separately. While the music selections in Volume 1 remain the same as the earlier edition, the spacious new engraving with minimal editing generally keeps only one piece per page. Instruction material in many pieces from Volume 1 has been removed in lieu of right-hand studies at the top of the page and left-hand studies at the bottom. Tempo markings are now included on many pieces. Titles include: "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" Variations (Shinichi Suzuki); Lightly Row (German Folk Song); The Honeybee (Bohemian Folk Song); Cuckoo (German Folk Song) ; French Children's Song (French Folk Song); London Bridge (English Folk Song); Mary Had a Little Lamb (American Nursery Song); Go Tell Aunt Rhody (Folk Song); Au Clair de la Lune (J. B. Lully); Long, Long Ago (T. H. Bayly); Little Playmates (F. X. Chwatal); Chant Arabe (Anonymous); Allegretto 1 (C. Czerny); Goodbye to Winter (Folk Song); Allegretto 2 (C. Czerny); Christmas-Day Secrets (T. Dutton); Allegro (S. Suzuki) and Musette (Anonymous).
