Book 1 is for students of all ages, beginners and transfers. Students learn keyboard performance, improvisation, and audiation skills while they begin to acquire a music pattern vocabulary. Transfer students become acquainted with singing, moving and chanting activities that help them learn how to play by ear, improvise, and arrange music. Initially, game-like pieces introduce rhythm/meter concepts, ensemble playing, and technical skills. Students become familiar with the whole range of the keyboard. The beginning pieces have teacher duet parts that are in different tonalities. These duet parts are simplifed for student performance. The pieces use both separated and connected styles of playing and use contrasting dynamics. Following the introductory pieces, most of the performance pieces in Music Moves for Piano are from our rich folk song heritage. Students learn to play in duple and triple meters and in major and minor tonalities. Students develop the left hand by playing the folk songs with each hand alone. Accompaniments are added when a student feels comfortable coordinating two hands. Teachers and students are encouraged to adapt the suggested accompaniments to the physical capability of the student. G Major, F Major, F-sharp Major, C Major and A Minor are introduced in Book 1. Pattern instruction includes duple and triple meter macrobeat, microbeat, and division rhythm patterns and major and minor tonic and dominant tonal patterns. Improvisation is the cornerstone of this audiation-based approach. Improvisation activities are included on the opening unit pages of the student books as well as in the Teacher's Lesson Plans book. The online audio files include performances of the music,rhythm and tonal and patterns for students to echo, and songs to sing.
Book 1 introduces folksongs in the major keyalities of G, F, and C. Students play folksong melodies with each hand alone and learn to transpose.Ratings + Reviews

Innovador y bastante prctico
No he entrado en profundidad en el libro pero si que he ledo sobre la MLT y aunque nos resulte nuevo a los espaoles, lo veo totalmente imprescindible para una buena educacin musical. Basado en odo y creatividad.

Music Moves for Piano
This is the very piano method I have been searching for since I graduated college as a music teacher! It is the ONLY rote-before-note method out there with such a beautiful integration of whole person musicality. No longer do I drill notes, remind students about steady beat til I'm blue in the face, or teach musically illogical pieces that are insensibly difficult and dissatisfying for playing. Instead my students are moving to rhythms, soaking up all kinds of patterns, learning to sing in tune, creating and improvising from day one. They engage a variety of musical styles, keys, modes, meters from very early on. I do admit that it requires a fair bit of teacher planning before each lesson, and I do draw a lot from my college education (not for the faint of heart). However, if you are up for the initial challenge as a teacher, you will not be disappointed!! You and your students will have fun learning to be better musicians together! Here's to research-based, student-proven method!
