AlbakiReads Editorial

A broad, activity-based foundation for beginning piano study

Elyse Mach’s ninth edition organizes early piano learning around a notably varied body of solo and ensemble material. Classical selections sit alongside folk, jazz, dance, and blues tunes, giving students multiple musical contexts in which to build keyboard skills. The book also extends beyond playing notated pieces: its exercises and repertoire create opportunities to improvise, transpose, harmonize, and devise accompaniments. With 720 pages of material, it functions as an expansive class-piano resource that connects technique and repertoire with practical creative work at the keyboard.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Beginning piano students in class-based instruction
  • Adult learners seeking varied introductory piano repertoire
  • Students interested in improvisation, transposition, and harmonization
