Description

The Exploring Piano Classics series combines engaging performance pieces with insightful technical studies, offering a comprehensive learning experience for students. Each level features a Repertoire book accompanied by a CD and a Technique book, both of which are conveniently correlated page by page. When utilized together, these resources provide students with a profound understanding of musical artistry, performance techniques, and the essential skills required for proficient piano playing. The Technique books present a well-structured program focused on technical growth, incorporating fundamental keyboard patterns such as five-finger patterns, scales, chords, cadences, and arpeggios in both major and minor keys, all of which are reflected in the Repertoire books. Additionally, they include exercises, etudes, and vital technical drills to help students master each piece, along with practical suggestions for effective practice.
