Download or read book Etudes for Piano Teachers written by Stewart Gordon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1995-02-23 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as musical etudes focus on the development of skills and address the technical problems encountered in keyboard literature, the "etudes" in Stewart Gordon's new book also focus on ideas which prepare piano teachers for meeting the problems encountered in piano performing and teaching. This major new collection on the piano teacher's art opens with an assessment of the role of the piano teacher, and goes on to explore various types of students and the challenge each presents: the moderately talented, but ambitious, student; the late beginner; the unusually gifted. Drawing on thirty years of teaching and performing, Gordon then bring fresh ideas to bear on the often-discussed areas of inner-hearing, pulse regulation, improvisation, sight-reading, and collaborative music making. There are sections on performance procedures, memorizing, pedalling, and historical performance practices; a carefully-balanced consideration of the role of the piano student and teacher; and realistic looks at the problems facing the profession today, the dynamics of a performing career, and the stages through which musicians' careers often pass. Designed to open up new avenues of inquiry, to provoke discussion and creative thinking, and to challenge and motivate students, these essays will be vital reading for all serious piano students and teachers.

Download or read book Introducing Etudes for Building Piano Technique Book 1 written by Isabel Bowen and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-13 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *This publication is perfect bound and has a glued spine. BOOK 1: LATE ELEMENTARY TO EARLY INTERMEDIATE. Introducing Etudes is a three-book series of studies specially designed to help students learn technique as effectively as possible. Students face a number of common technical challenges during their development as pianists. Usually, young pianists have to learn pieces from several books of etudes just to cover the basics. The pieces in this series have been carefully selected to include the best of those traditional studies, and every piece is conveniently and strategically matched to the technical challenge it was meant to teach. These pieces are arranged in order of difficulty for students from the late elementary level to the late intermediate level. In addition, the three-book series features eight original compositions by Ward Bowen written specifically to add new artistic repertoire to this genre. For convenience, a listing of technical challenges on page 3 provides a helpful resource for teachers to find the studies that are most appropriate to meet the unique needs of each student. As studies can be useful for many different purposes, they are listed by their most prominent functions. Teachers can use the studies for their primary purpose or use them creatively for added practice on a variety of techniques. This collection can be used by teachers and students to help lay a strong technical foundation for the study of repertoire. By covering the common technical challenges and introducing students to important etudes, the books are also a useful complement to any method. Contents: F. Beyer: Etude Op. 101, No. 18, C.

Download or read book The Tyranny of Tradition in Piano Teaching written by Walter Ponce and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strict traditions of piano teaching have remained entrenched for generations. The dominant influence of Muzio Clementi (1752-1832), the first composer-pedagogue of the instrument, brought about an explosion of autocratic instruction and bizarre teaching systems, exemplified in the mind-numbing drills of Hanon's "The Virtuoso Pianist." These practices--considered absurd or abusive by many--persist today at all levels of piano education. This book critically examines two centuries of teaching methods and encourages instructors to do away with traditions that disconnect mental and creative skills.
