鋼琴 1 級 - 第 6 部分

This course consists of 6 "traditional-style" piano lessons based on the book Faber Piano Adventures Level 1.  Each learner will need a copy of this book for the class. Throughout this course learners will focus on G position playing. Learners will be presented with visuals of the songs as well as a keyboard visual to facilitate understanding throughout the lesson. During each class, learners will review previous songs and terms, learn new songs, and demonstrate good piano playing technique. Learners will learn up to 5 songs throughout this course. 

Learners should practice between classes to improve their skills and prepare for class. 

Music theory in this course includes note G on the grand staff, G five-finger scale, G chords, accent mark and upbeat/pick-up note.

This course is designed to follow level 1, part 5 instruction and is the final course in this level.

While it is not required, individual playing will help learners receive positive feedback to facilitate progress. Learners are encouraged to respond positively when others play to facilitate a safe performance space.

Arranging your device to show your hands, keeping your video on during class and practicing between classes will optimize learning. Adjusting the settings in Zoom to "Original Sound for Musicians" "On" will ensure that Zoom does to suppress the music as noise. There may be additional settings to check before the start of class.

To assist with practicing between classes, video demonstrations of the songs may be posted in the Outschool classroom as well as music notes and audio play along tracks.
