About this arrangement

Piano Tutor SKU: ST.B806 Composed by Jeffrey Whitton. Books & Study Scores. Sheet music. Stainer & Bell Ltd. #B806. Published by Stainer & Bell Ltd. (ST.B806). ISBN 9780852498064.The book is intended for piano students who have reached Grade V and then need help with the organisation of their practice rather than simply repetitive playing of scales and pieces. Imaginatively presented, the author writes of physical and psychological preparation; practice by analysis; the development of a secure memory; how to approach sight-reading; practising scales, exercises and pieces by identifying problem areas; and preparation for performance. Whatever techniques you are taught to use, this book is an immensely useful aid to making practice pleasurable rather than dull, never mindless and always a stimulating voyage of discovery.
