Alfred's Basic Piano Library

Alfred’s Basic Piano Library Solo Book . Level 6 P iano

Selected and Edited by E. L. Lancaster & Morton Manus

This new series answers the often expressed need for a variety of supplementary material in many different popular styles. What could be more fun for a young student than to play the music that everybody knows and loves? The remarkable part of this new Top Hits series is that soon after beginning piano study, young students can play attractive versions of the best-known music of today. This book is correlated page-by-page with Lesson Book 6 of Alfredʼs Basic Piano Library; pieces should be assigned based on the instructions in the upper-right corner of each title page of Top Hits. Since the melodies and rhythms of popular music do not always lend themselves to precise grading, you may find that these pieces are sometimes a little more difficult than the corresponding pages in the Lesson Book. The teacherʼs judgment is the most important factor in deciding when to begin each title. When the books in the Top Hits series are assigned in conjunction with the Lesson Books, these appealing pieces reinforce new concepts as they are introduced. In addition, the motivation the music provides could not be better. The emotional satisfaction students receive from mastering each popular song increases their enthu- siasm to begin the next one. With the popular music available in the Top Hits series (Levels 1A, 1B, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), the use of all seven books will significantly increase student interest in piano study to successively higher levels.
