(Faber Piano Adventures ). The Piano Adventures Technique & Performance
Book, with page-by-page correlations, is the essential companion to the
Lesson & Theory Book. The Technique & Performance Book combines two
essential elements of pianism: the student develops technical skill
through the application of "technique secrets"; engaging etudes and
performance pieces allow these techniques to be tools for musical
expression. This integration of technique and artistic performance, the
sequence of Technique Secrets through the levels, and a unique emphasis
on gesture that coordinates arm, wrist, and fingers make this series
especially powerful.
