This is the definitive work on consummate piano teaching. Edited by world-renowned piano pedagogue Denes Agay, this comprehensive volume covers a wide-range of musical styles and concepts, coaching processes, and teaching materials.
As well as exploring every possible technical aspect of teaching piano, the book contains a great deal of commonsense advice on communicating with pupils, encouraging good behaviour, and establishing a genuinely creative teacher/pupil relationship.
Topics include: instilling performance and keyboard skills, teaching both young children and adult beginners, designing teaching programs for handicapped students, giving group piano classes, and organising and presenting recitals.
