Publisher's Synopsis
PianoForte is a creative method based on the principles of Kodály, Orff & Gordon who believed that 'sound should come before symbol'. The PianoForte Method combines these methods with traditional high quality piano teaching to provide students with a creative, progressive method that develops aural skills through Moveable Solfa.
Level 1 introduces students to the piano and Moveable Solfa through pre-notation pieces, singing, chants, and exercises.
