This easy step-by-step method emphasizes correct playing habits and note reading through interval recognition.

Lesson Book Level 1A begins by teaching basic keyboard topography and fluent recognition of white key names in relation to black keys.
It focuses on simple rhythms and prepares students for intervallic reading with entertaining songs that focus on "same," "stepping up" and "stepping down."
It then introduces lines and space notes in treble and bass clefs, melodic and harmonic intervals of 2nds, 3rds, 4ths and 5ths, and graduates to reading on the grand staff.
It also introduces the flat and sharp signs.

This course is most effective when used under the direction of a piano teacher or experienced musician.
