Watch me play piano
The Watch Me Play series has been developed for young children as a music teaching aid for use by teachers in a lesson and even parents in a home-schooling environment. In addition to playing, it includes such activities as hidden pictures, coloring, tracing, matching, connect-the-dots and fill in the blanks.
Bastien Piano Party Book B
This method was written specifically for young children age 4 and up, a wonderful time for expanding a child's interest in music!
Students begin in Book A by playing songs with black key groups all over the keyboard, followed by playing songs with individual black keys.
By the end of Book D the child's fluency at the keyboard encompasses reading and playing five-finger melodies in all twelve keys.
This series includes three books--PIANO PARTY, THEORY & EAR TRAINING PARTY, PERFORMANCE PARTY-at four progressive levels.
The combination of these three books provides a comprehensive introduction to music and playing the piano. A variety of supplemental books are also available for each level of this series. Visit www.kjos.com to learn more.

Top 10 Classical Favourites
There are a number of outstanding classical masterpieces that we love to hear again and again. Much of this music is not written for piano, and a lot of the repertoire composed expressly for piano is technically challenging. Now, with the intermediate-throughlate-intermediate-level arrangements in Top 10 Classical Favorites, some of the world's favorite piano, orchestral and operatic masterpieces are right at your fingertips. This collection includes music by nine celebrated composers from all musical style periods- Pachelbel, J. S. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Puccini, Debussy, Joplin and Rachmaninoff.
These arrangements can be played simply for your own enjoyment, at informal gatherings, and are perfect for recitals. I hope you find as much pleasure in performing these pieces as I did in arranging them for you.

24 Easy Studies For Left Hand Piano/ Czerny Studies for Left Hand Piano
Czerny's Op. 718 is a set of 24 studies that emphasize training of the left hand. The work is not a collection of left hand solo studies as one might guess from the title, though it focuses on the dexterity of the left hand. The studies include the following types of technique: scales, double thirds, full (four-note) chords, arpeggios, skips, melody and accompaniment in the left-hand part, turns, staccato 16ths, passing of the second finger over the first, fast repeated notes with changing fingers, an exercise to strengthen the fourth and fifth fingers, grace notes and octaves.
Op. 718 and the School of the Left Hand (Schule der linken Hand), Op. 399, are Czerny's only two opus numbers devoted exclusively to developing the left hand.
