My friends like to hear me play cool music. Why not indeed. J.S. Bach taught his sons using the music of his time popular dances preludes and exercises by living composers. It would never have occurred to him to seek out pieces in styles and rhythms one hundred years old. He expected his boys to thrive in the musical world of their time.American Popular Piano has been developed on the same principles. Students working in this series will develop traditional pianistic and musical skills through music in contemporary popular styles; be motivated to practice by working on music that is familiar fun and that they can t wait to play; nurture their creativity and spontaneity through a user-friendly modular approach to improvisation; enjoy regular ensemble playing; and find pleasure in a lifelong relationship with music!Written entirely by Christopher Norton and Scott McBride Smith American Popular Piano is an educational piano course which comprises 44 books clearly divided into 11 difficulty levels.
