Description
Alfred's Basic Piano Library: Lesson Book 4
Alfred's Basic Piano Library: Lesson Book 4 continues the series with a carefully sequenced mix of reading, technique, rhythm, harmony and repertoire for developing pianists. Written by Willard A. Palmer, Morton Manus and Amanda Vick Lethco, it emphasises correct playing habits and interval-based note reading while introducing more advanced Level 4 concepts.
Develop More Advanced Piano Skills
Level 4 introduces tarantellas, eighth-note triplets, arpeggiated chords, triad inversions, parallel major scales, two-part writing, seventh chords and their inversions, sixteenth notes, dotted eighth notes and harmonic minor scales.
Coordinated with the Level 4 Library
The book is designed to work page by page with Alfred's Level 4 supplementary books, including Ear Training, Recital, Repertoire, Sight Reading, Technic and Theory, so students can reinforce each new concept from several angles.

Who Is It For?
Ideal for students progressing into Alfred Level 4 who are ready for more advanced rhythm, harmony, scale work and keyboard technique.
Our Take
Lesson Book 4 is an important step in the series because students begin handling more detailed rhythm and harmony while still following a very clear progression. It keeps the technical work connected to actual repertoire, which makes the new concepts easier to understand and apply.
