Colour Keys Piano ABC Book A

Inspired by the Colourstrings method the Colour Keys is an inspiring tutor designed for small beginners. The book also applies the ideas of Kodály in emphasizing the inner hearing skills through audio-visual means. New ideas are offered gradually, e.g. the coloured staff is constructed from a single-line staff to a five-line staff. A Little DO wandering on the keyboard suggests transposition. Transposing slip will guide transposition and functions in every key. A separate teacher's guide (coming soon) offers pedagogical information and illustrates the story of Little DO's trip to the Musicland. The book also includes supporting material, e.s. a coloured slip to be placed behind the keys.
