The Accelerated Piano Adventures: For the Older Beginner series is the perfect introduction to piano for students who don't need the cutesy-cartoons that often pepper beginning piano instruction books. Each level has four books (each of which is sold-separately): Lesson, Theory, Technique & Artistry, and Performance. A piano method based on discovery, creativity and adventure through music, students will soon become acquainted with the great Classical musicians and plenty of additional enjoyable works.
< i>Accelerated Piano Adventures: For the Older Beginner Technique & Artistry Book 1 includes twelve units that are correlated with the Lesson Book 1 (Lesson Book pages are indicated in the lower right of the page), and provide additional exercises to strengthen students' technical skill and artistic performance abilities.
Students will learn to keep a rounded hand shape, use arm weight for efficient playing, keep a relaxed wrist, use a light thumb, and other tips; small warm-up pieces are given along with instructions to focus upon certain techniques. The Artistry Magic pages provide an opportunity for expressive playing.
64 pages, softcover. Non-reproducible; consumable workbook.
