Now available as a book and CD edition. Pre-practice technical exercises for the Piano. The purpose of this book is to help develop strong hands and flexible fingers. The idea is to learn two or three exercises at a time, which should be played each day before practicing. Only when these are mastered should you add another. When all in the first group are mastered, the next group may be introduced. Many of these exercises may be transposed to different keys. The accompanying CD is a wonderful tool for enhancing these exercises with highly acclaimed midi-orchestrated backing tracks - learning becomes so much fun! Each track is split to enable the pupil to hear both Piano part and accompaniment is the balance is centred, the accompaniment without the Piano is the balance control is all the way to the left, and the Piano part alone if it is all the way to the right! An ideal accompaniment to practice. / Piano / 32 pages / niveau : Débutant / Partition + Cd

Description The John Thompson's Easiest Piano Course is designed to present the easiest possible approach to piano playing, complete with an amusing family of characters and illustrations to help emphasise the information being taught. Part one is devoted to developing fluency in reading by note, the biggest hurdle for most young children. The range is purposely limited. Only five notes up and five notes down from middle C are presented and time values do not go beyond crotchets. Each book of the course contains its own writing exercises, sight-reading drills, review work and later, technical studies. Accompaniments for teacher or parent are supplied with most of the examples.
