After The H Book Vol. 1

The AFTER THE 'H' Book volumes have been written in response to requests from teachers who have raised the question of what to do with students after they have finished the 'H' Book of the JOHN W. SCHAUM PIANO COURSE. They are in the nature of a Post-Graduate Course and are designed to widen the pupil's musical horizon and to expand his technical development beyond the 'H' Book degree of proficiency. However the student should not be give the impression that after completing these books he has arrived. He/She should know that the greatest pianists are eternal students and always are aspiring toward further self-improvement. Piano study is like life itself; it needs constant nourishment to thrive. These books supply musical vitamins that will enrich the pupil's pianistic ability. The material approximately Grade 6. Book II is approximately Grade 6 1/2.
