Piano de nivel intermedio inicial - Clase en grupos reducidos - Nivel T

Please note: This class picks up where Early Intermediate Piano Level S leaves off. 

Prospective students should be familiar with major and minor triads/scales and one-octave arpeggios. 

Sight reading music is essential to this class so prospective students should be comfortable with reading music in the Level 4 Piano Adventures series (material from Level S). 

In this class, students will explore the circle of 5ths, cadences and three minor scale forms. Students will use octaves, arpeggios and develop phrasing in pieces by Clementi and other composers. 

Please note: We will be using Piano Adventures Lesson Book Level 5 (2nd Edition) for this class. It is a required text for the class.
