Expanding rhythm, style and creativity for developing pianists.
Piano Lessons – Book 3 with Audio and MIDI Access builds on earlier foundations with a stronger focus on rhythm, tonal awareness and musical independence. Students are introduced to eighth notes in 4/4 and 2/4 time, as well as swing eighths, broadening their rhythmic control and stylistic range.
A varied selection of folk, jazz, classical and contemporary pieces keeps lessons engaging while reinforcing new concepts. In the second half of the book, students explore relative and parallel major and minor five-finger patterns, developing a deeper understanding of key relationships. Guided improvisation exercises encourage creativity and help students compose their own simple pieces.
This package includes the Piano Lessons Book and enhanced audio access. The included disc works in standard CD players and also provides MIDI files for Windows and Mac users.
