ISBN Graded Keyboard Musicianship Book 1

There have been many keyboard musicianship tutors over the years and here now is one for the 21st century. The areas covered are not new â the core skills of figured bass score-reading harmonizing transposing and improvising remain as ever. But the language used the examples chosen and above all the structure of each book are imaginatively rethought. The eight levels corresponding to ABRSM grades and therefore ranging from pre-grade 1 to pre-diploma havefive lessons in each and each lesson includes the five skills - presented in an integrated way. So as each key is introduced the transposing and harmonizing examples utilize these leading at the end of each lesson to improvising exercises derived from the preceding tasks. The structure makes the bookssuitable for private as well as directed study and either used alongside conventional organ or piano lessons or as an intensive keyboard musicianship course.
