(Schott). The Classical Piano Method is ideal for adults and young
people looking to learn the piano from scratch, or for those returning
to the piano after a substantial break from playing. You will learn
traditional, classic technique, and will be introduced to interesting,
varied and well-known classical pieces right from the outset. The method
is friendly and is carefully designed to progress in small manageable
steps, beginning with simple fingering patterns and exercises, moving
onto some of the most beautiful melodies and pieces from the baroque,
classical and romantic eras. This repertoire collection provides extra
pieces explicitly linked to the levels of progression found in Method
Book 2, providing a wider range of beautiful pieces for the solo
pianist. The pieces are drawn mainly from the classical repertoire, and
also include a number of folk and contemporary pieces in interesting and
varied arrangements.
