Description
Alfred's Basic Piano Library: Lesson Book 3
Alfred's Basic Piano Library: Lesson Book 3 continues Alfred's step-by-step piano method with a carefully sequenced mix of reading, rhythm, technique, harmony and repertoire. Written by Willard A. Palmer, Morton Manus and Amanda Vick Lethco, Level 3 builds stronger keyboard fluency while introducing more advanced pedal, scale and chord concepts.
New Level 3 Concepts
Lesson Book 3 introduces overlapping pedal, 3/8 and 6/8 time signatures, and the primary triads in major and minor keys. Students also develop passing one under two and one under three, major scales in contrary motion, the chromatic scale and minor scale work.
Coordinated with the Level 3 Library
The course is designed so supplementary books can reinforce each new idea as it appears. Level 3 coordinates with companion titles covering theory, technic, ear training, sight reading, notespelling, recital repertoire and more.

Our Take
Lesson Book 3 is a useful step up because the technique and theory become more substantial without losing the clear progression that makes Alfred's Basic easy to teach from. The companion-book structure also makes it simple to reinforce any area that needs extra work.
