Students are finding the Theory Books in Alfred's Premier Piano
Course not only fun to do but very helpful in reinforcing new
materials introduced in the Lesson Book. The Learning Links
included in the Theory Book relate to learning more about important
subjects found in the music and lyrics in the Lesson Book making
for a more rounded education. Continued from previous Theory Books
are Fun Zones, Now Hear This (ear training), and Now Play This
(sight reading exercises) which add additional reinforcement to
written theory.
Warm, lyrical, cantabile melodies and rich harmonic structures are
found in this expressive series.
The knowledge of note reading, intervals, rhythm, music symbols and
terms, and the ability to listen are essential to the development
of a strong foundation for the piano student. This THEORY book was
written to help provide this foundation by giving students
reinforcement of the concepts presented in the LESSONS book of the
DAVID CARR GLOVER METHOD FOR PIANO. As the students advance in
their ability to play the piano, the THEORY book will help give
them a better understanding of the music they are performing. The
pages are designed to be interesting and fun for the students in
order to spark their enthusiasm and increase their motivation.
