Le Cours Primaire de Michael Aaron a été expressément dédié aux très jeunes enfants.
La gente écolière de 5 à 8 ans trouvera dans cette méthode tout ce qu?il lui faut pour partir sur le bon pied. La vaste expérience de l?auteur, acquise au cours de plusieurs années au contact de ce petit monde, lui a permis d?établir trois points essentiels requis pour la réussite dans leurs études, à savoir : La compréhension, la sympathie et l?encouragement. A la lumière de ces trois phares lumineux, l?auteur propose dans sa méthode le plan général que voici: Histoire des premiers éléments de la musique; Connaissance du rythme par le truchement du battement des mains et du comptage; Utilisant ce qu?on est convenu d?appeler le Do moyen comme point de départ, des diagrammes très simples permettent la découverte de nouvelles notes l?une après l?autre; Connaissance du mouvement mélodique propre à intéresser l?enfant; Des petits chants attrayants pour éveiller chez l?enfant le goût et le sens tonal. / Méthodes et pédagogie / Piano et instrument à clavier / Piano / VOLONTE
