A beginner piano class for our youngest players in Grade Kindergarten - 1

The class for bigger students in Grades K-1.

Three distinguishing features of the Lesson Book A make it unique and effective for the young 5-6 year old beginner. 1. A strong focus on technique embedded in the book through playful technique games, chants, and carefully-composed pieces that gently lead the child into pianistic motions. 2. An outstanding CD for the young student to listen, sing, tap, and play along with at the piano. The orchestrated songs on the CD feature children singing the lyrics, which has great appeal to the 5-6 year old beginner. The CD becomes a ready-made practice partner that guides the student and parent for all the pieces and activities. 3. The fanciful art features five children who are also learning to play. These friends at the piano introduce basic rhythms, white key names, and a variety of white and black-key songs that span classical, folk, and blues.

Young students will listen, sing, create, and play more musically with Nancy and Randall Faber’s My First Piano Adventure, Lesson Book A.
