Place your hands in the Travelling Along The Prairie position and get ready to improvise anew piece titled Orange Horizon.

1. Practice playing this repeated accompaniment (ostinato) with your L.H.

3. When you are ready to end your piece, rest your R.H. and let the L.H. accompaniment continue. Gradually fade away by playing softer and softer, slower and slower.

2. After you can play the accompaniment easily, improvise a R.H. melody with the notes D E G A. Try playing your melody one octave higher.

One way to create a piece is to trade phrases between yourhands, playing first one hand and then the other. Make upyour own piece using the following notes in both hands:

1. As you listen to the accompaniment to A Little Latin, play along as your R.H. asks a musical question and your L.H. answers back.

2. As your teacher plays the 12-bar blues accompaniment below, make up your own melody using the same notes in question and answer phrases between the hands.

PIANO LESSONS BOOK 1

From the very first lessons in Book 1, students are makingmusic as they explore the piano keyboard through funimprovisation pieces called My Own Song. The beginning of the book introduces finger numbers, the black-key andwhite-key groups, and basic rhythm patterns.

Directional reading is taught first by finger number, then by note name, and then by interval (step, skip, and repeat). Once the students are introduced to the staff, they learnreading guides Bass F and Treble G and read by interval in several different hand positions.
