Hal Leonard Student Piano Library: Piano Lessons Book 1 w CD

From the very first lessons in Book 1, students are making music as theyexplore the piano keyboard through fun improvisation pieces called My O wn Song. The beginning of the book introduces finger numbers, the black-key and white-key groups, and basic rhythm patterns.

Directional reading is taught first by finger number, then by note name, and then byinterval (stop, skip, and repeat). Once the students are introduced to the staff, they learn reading guides Bass F and Treble G and read by interval in several different hand positions. This package includes a PianoLessons Book and CD featuring fully orchestrated audio AND General MIDI track accompaniments for every song, created by master arranger Phillip Keveren.
