Book excerpt: Here is a complete harpsichord method for children and even all beginners! It was while teaching harpsichord in Education Action Zones (UK), or in Affirmative Action Areas (USA), that I noticed that a great effort still remained necessary to make the learning of this instrument accessible. The goal of this method is to favorize in a pleasant manner the learning and localization of the most commonly played notes, motor skills, as well as hand coordination and displacement by way of Basso Continuo, Diminutions, Articulations and Sight-reading. This project was born thanks to the pupils and their needs. It is the fruit of 12 years of planning and experimenting in real life situations. This approach parts from the standpoint that the beginning pupil has no previous musical knowledge. Volume 1 of 10 Here, we are starting from nothing. It is the ABC's of music. The basics of learning and localizing notes are laid down, as well as the first steps in touch, hand coordination and displacement, motor skills, and articulation. Volume 2 of 10 This volume is a transitory phase. It contains less pages, but there is more to do. We reinforce the skills acquired in Volume 1, and prepare the pupil to play more important pieces. We introduce the English virginalists and their ornamentation. The pupil is going to play pieces where each hand plays several notes. We begin a study of Major scales in historical fingerings, introduce historical exercises, and the concept of notes inégales. We also begin a study of Basso Continuo and Diminutions. Volume 3 of 10 We continue our study of Basso Continuo and Diminutions. We study selections from suites and introduce polyphony and the unmeasured prelude. Volume 4 of 10 This volume discusses J.S. Bach's fingering. The pieces are considerably longer. We continue our study of Articulations. The German, French, Italian, and English Schools are represented here. Volume 5 of 10 We complete our study of Diminutions and start a study of Ornamention from the period 1680-1750 and how to incorporate it in the repertoire. We introduce the Dutch School and study exercises Bach might have known. Contents Check out individual volumes for content description

Performance Practice notes are given when necessary.Volume 7 of 10This volume prepares the pupil for the repertoire that will be studied in Volume 8, which is a summa of diverse styles and historical information. In Volume 7, we continue our study of selections from the larger suites, play selections from the Wegweiser, an organ method Bach might have known, and meet the acquaintance of Domenico Scarlatti. The Localizing Notes exercises we had in Volumes 1 to 6 serve as a preparation for Sight-reading, and here are the first exercises.Volume 8 of 10In this volume, we treat more polyphony and counterpoint, study Early Italian Baroque fingerings, learn how to prepare an unmeasured prelude, approach Late Medieval repertoire, discuss the earliest fingerings, explain "musica ficta", approach the Spanish Renaissance, the English Virginalists, as well as the North German School, and learn an entire suite by Rameau.
