Preludes and Postludes

The Easiest Piano Course gives students and teachers an especially easy and fun approach to learning to play the piano. This is a comprehensive step-by-step course designed to suit the needs of all children beginning the piano. Throughout the entire method, new concepts are presented clearly and are supported by fun, child-focused tunes that are either composed or arranged by the author, with musicality in mind! Parts One through Four include work sheet pages which encourage the review of new information and concepts. The clear and straightforward layout makes learning more fun and ideal for parent participation. Part One has students reading from the grand staff immediately, one note at a time, in middle C position throughout. Harmony of one or two notes is occasionally added in the second half of the book. Very simple arrangements of popular children's songs such as Mary Had a Little Lamb, Old MacDonald, and Yankee Doodle are included as well as originals by the author.

John Thompson's Easiest Piano Course

Piano Book Part 1

The First Grade Book is recommended for students who already have an elementary-level knowledge of the piano keyboard, note names, and reading from the grand staff. It begins with Music Land, an eight measure piece in C major position which has a melody of half notes in the right hand and harmony of half and whole notes in the left. Phrasing, articulation and form are emphasized from the beginning. Students move from the elementary to the intermediate level as they learn such concepts as accidentals, half and whole steps, syncopation, chords in inversions, the C Major scale and pieces in the following keys: C, G, D, A, E, F, Bb, Eb, Ab Major. Hand positions vary widely depending on what key you're in. This First Grade Book includes folk tunes, originals and arrangements of classics by the author. Finger numbers are provided liberally, for every new note, in every piece of this book.

Teaching Little Fingers to Play

The pieces in this three volume set are written for piano students of intermediate level. The composer-teacher believes that every student's musical education should include experiences in a variety of popular stylings, including jazz, as a serious and recurring phase of his studies. The student should be encouraged, too, to deviate from the written notes with his own improvisations if he desires, for spontaneity is an essential ingredient of the jazz idiom.
