Celebrate Piano!

Piano Book Lesson & Musician.2A

Celebrate Piano! is a comprehensive and carefully paced piano method designed to provide students with a foundation of understanding, experiences, and skills that will guide them as they discover the joy of music. Students experience a wide range of repertoire, including classical and contemporary selections as well as folksongs. An emphasis upon reading and artistic development gives students of Celebrate Piano! the foundation they need to progress in their study of piano literature.  Every "Lesson and Musicianship" book incorporates repertoire, technique, reading, theory, rhythm, aural skills, and creative skills in a comprehensive approach. "Lesson and Musicianship" Book 1A includes a total of six gradually progressing units.  The first two units orient the beginner to the black keys with pre-staff tunes. In Unit 3, the student is introduced to the five-line staff, line and space notes, and steps. Clefs are not presented until "Lesson and Musicianship" Book 1B. Instead, the student is pointed to a starting note by a keyboard chart and one letter name on each staff. Thus, students experience playing on the wide range of the keyboard and are not wedded to particular hand positions. Unit 4 introduces the grand staff, harmonic and melodic 2nds.  The interval of a third is not introduced until Unit 5.  Unit 6 combines 2nds and 3rds in melodies and introduces dotted half and whole notes. Besides plenty of original, child-friendly tunes by the authors, every unit offers many creative exercises in rhythm, singing, aural skills, note recognition and theory. Practice Plans are frequently included, challenging the student to be thoughtful and productive during practice sessions. "Lesson and Musicianship" Book 1B continues where Book 1A leaves off and covers the concepts of staccato, time signatures, treble and bass clefs, landmark notes, rests, ledger lines, ties, and accidentals.

Level 4, the final level in the Celebrate Piano series, offers solid, pedagogically-sound learning at the intermediate level.  Carefully written and selected pieces are offered in each of the six units. New concepts include syncopation; Major scales in tetrachords; chord inversions; pentatonic and whole-tone scales; binary form; relative, natural, and harmonic minor scales and much more.  As in all Lesson and Musicianship books in this series, repertoire, technique, theory, ear-training and creativity/composition are all included in one book.

Write and Listen Workbook No. 2

Celebrate Piano continues with Level 3, providing the piano student with a solid foundation at the early intermediate level.  Each of the six units offers several new pieces including folk songs, original classical selections and pieces by the authors.  New concepts include tonic, subdominant and dominant chords; minor 5-finger patterns; Major, minor and perfect intervals; 6/8 and 9/8 time signatures and more. Colorful, animated pictures abound, setting a happy, child-friendly tone to this and every book in the series.

Piano Book Lesson & Musician. 3

Keyboard Musicianship provides the materials necessary to develop well-rounded musicianship in adult pianists in group instruction. It allows the student to read well, play in many keys, harmonize folk and popular melodies, play by ear, improvise, compose, and notate music with skill. The eight chapters and appendices of Book One reflect a typical first year college piano curriculum for music majors who are not pianists. Most often the first four chapters are covered in the first semester and the second four in the second semester. The book is organized in a sequential manner, enabling understanding and skills to unfold in a logical way. As new musical elements are introduced, they are reinforced by a variety of keyboard activities. Evaluation of progress is assisted with suggested quiz topics that appear at the end of each chapter. The eight chapters and appendices of Book 2 provide more than ample work for the second year of college group study. It starts with a review of harmony and structures encountered in earlier study and moves quickly to new elements. Both books include a play along CD containing both audio tracks and embedded Standard MIDI Files.

Keyboard Musicianship: Piano for Adults

Piano Book & CD Book One & CD

Creative Piano Teaching

Book

This book is designed to assist elementary and intermediate-level keyboard students in learning basic melodic and harmonic keyboard patterns. Patterns include major and minor pentachords in all keys, scales built in tetrachords in all keys, major and minor triads in arpeggio form, various basic chord progressions, blues scale patterns, and the blues chord progression. Essential Melodic and Harmonic Patterns also contains jazz comping (chord accompaniment patterns) techniques and helpful suggestions regarding melodic improvisation. Such activities encourage creativity and ear development. All melodic and harmonic patterns are completely notated for the student. However, the goal is to have students eventually internalize each pattern. When patterns are learned and become second nature, students will become more secure players. They will recognize familiar melodic and harmonic shapes. Such recognition will benefit skills in sight reading, analysis, transposition, and even improvisation. Included is a  CD with both audio and General MIDI File accompaniment tracks.
