Piano Abc's - Level One: Beginning at the Beginning Beverly Grace Joy

This beginning piano method appeals to piano beginners of all ages. It uses an easily understood, innovative, and logical approach to note reading and rhythm. Beginning piano students, adults and teen piano beginners as well as children who start lessons with the cutting-edge Piano ABC's beginning piano method, learn quickly to read logically and with confidence, so they generally accomplish in one book that which might require multiple books from many of the current traditional piano beginner methods. Subsequent levels of the Piano ABC's beginner piano method continue to facilitate a faster pace for understanding musical concepts and for well-coordinated playing when compared to the pacing of many of the most popular beginning piano methods. Learning to read notes (letter names) is very simple and intuitive. Rhythmic instruction integrates physical and intellectual activities, as well as the writing of proportional graphic symbols to help students grasp metrical and rhythmic concepts with profound understanding. Attractive, original compositions in diverse styles and modes have been created with the student in mind (parents have commented that they do not tire of listening to these pieces); and the engaging illustrations by François Arnaud will stimulate students' artistic imaginations. Teen and "tween" students especially love François Arnaud's creative, inspired art work; and younger students come to lessons having drawn their own versions of these musical birds, ducks, chickens, etc. The several ?streams? of music theory and pedagogical categories introduced in the Piano ABC's Level One beginner piano method are continued and expanded in all other levels throughout. This is an original, unique, patented, beginner piano method endorsed by nationally- and internationally-acclaimed piano pedagogues. The lay-out of pages for these books have a clean, ordered appearance and are not cluttered as is the case with so many of the currently popular beginner piano methods. Rather, the organized and clearly presented lessons are easily understood visually and conceptually by both teacher and student.
