John Thompson's Modern Course For The Piano, The First Grade Book

John Thompson has created a method book that approaches playing the piano in a more "modern" way. The series focuses on musicality early on. While the students are learning the notes, rhythms, and patterns, they are also learning about phrasing, musical form, tempo, shading, and other musical style skills. This series provides a clear and complete foundation in the study of the piano that enables the student to think and feel musically.
 
"The First Grade Book" covers all the basics for the beginning student. They will learn about phrases, patterns, finger positions, chords, scales, and much more. To help keep the focus on musicality, many of the pieces in this book are written in the five-finger position. This will also help with transposing the works down the road. If you have a beginner who is excited to play piano, this is just the method for you. They will learn the musical skills properly, and also have fun. "John Thompson's Modern Course For The Piano, The First Grade Book - Piano Method" weighs 10.56 oz.
