Reviews

Functional Skills for Pianists offers teachers, for the first time, a textbook that includes enough examples for students to practice and develop the skills they need. - Courtney Crappell, University of Houston This is a singular resource that covers all keyboard skills, and it is appropriate for advanced pianists. - Sara Marie Ernst, University of South Carolina I find the comprehensive nature of this textbook compelling. The textbook aligns well with my curriculum for teaching functional skills to pianists, and it would be wonderful not to have my students juggling multiple resources and showing up to class with the wrong resource in hand. I am particularly excited about the inclusion of rudimentary instruction in realizing figured bass, which is a topic for which it is difficult to find good practice materials. - Brenda Wristen, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
