Erstklassiges Klavier

The textbook "Erstklassiges Klavier" is specifically designed for children aged 5 to 6 who are taking their first steps in piano lessons. It is divided into four parts that offer a progressive learning structure. The first part includes duets for students and teachers as well as simple pieces that are learned using the note method. These songs are accompanied by simple texts to support the learning process. The second part promotes legato and hand independence, while introducing double and triple chords. The third part offers a collection of pieces that present the previously learned techniques in an advanced form. The final part contains didactic miniatures by various composers that stimulate the children's imagination. The author has composed many of the pieces herself and uses various musical styles to make the lessons varied. The book also includes exercises in sight-reading and improvisation, as well as basic scales and a musical glossary.
