Description

The Piano Town Compact Disc Accompaniments are an important motivational tool designed to enhance students’ home practice. Three compact discs contain accompaniments for nearly every exercise in the Lessons, Technic, and Performance books. There are two stereo accompaniment tracks for most pieces in each book. The first track is at a slower, practice tempo and includes a demonstration of the student piano part. The second track is at a faster tempo and features the accompaniment only, allowing the student to experience the joy of solo performance. For pieces with only one accompaniment track, a moderate tempo has been selected, and the student part is included.

Description

Using a simple step-by-step approach, this workbook is dedicated to helping students conquer reading, naming, and writing notes. Line notes and space notes are presented separately, alternating between the treble and bass clefs. All notes are then exercised on the grand staff. The final exercises of the book are dedicated to identifying notes in the context of harmonic thirds and triads. While part of the popular Piano Town method series, this volume can be studied to advantage with any traditional piano course.
