Following the very successful piano method published in two volumes between 1958 and 1962 the three-volume European Piano Method represents a new textbook which takes into account the development of modern piano pedagogy.7 Winning Features of the Emonts Method:1 Songs from many European countries2 Pupils begin to play without music notation3 Improvisation and playing on the black keys4 Development of listening skills and aural awareness5 Simple and logical learning structure6 Lots of duets7 Attractive full-colour illustrationsVolume 2While the first volume of The European Piano Method introduces the basic principles of playing the piano Volume 2 is concerned with extendingtechnical and musical training. The course begins with the theme of 'Phrasing and Articulation'. This is followed by a series of pieces arranged systematically to give practice of playing in different keys (3 sharps to 3 flats) and so to improve reading skills and increase familiarity with the keyboard. Together with major and minor scales the corresponding cadences are introduced which can be varied in many different playing styles. Parallel to this there is granded practice material for playing scales and to develop 'Velocity and Even Playing'. In this way students gradually reach a technical standart that allows 'artistic' work on expression and musical interpretation to begin. This development of musicianship starts with the use of pedal and an introduction to cantabile which will be taken further in Volume 3.Again playing by ear inventing accompaniements experimenting with timbres and chords and composing little pieces should constantly supplement lessons. In the appendix of Volume 2 the author offers some idea though he has consciously left much to the individual approach of the teacher.

Tutor book for descant (soprno) recorder (with baroque fingering style)-This method for children aged 6+ has been devised in such a way that in addition to playing the recorder the children also learn the major basics of music theory how to read and write music as well as how to listen and improvise. Breathing and tonguing techniques are taught consistently wrapped in games to liven up the lessons. From the very beginning the method uses Baroque fingering which in contrast to German fingering guarantees a much better intonation. Range of notes from c1 - d2 no chromatic semitones. Consistent work on breathing and tone production. Development of rhythmic confidence in dealing with the note values (crotchet minim dotted minim semibreve quaver).

Following the very successful piano method published in two volumes between 1958 and 1962 the three-volume European Piano Method represents a new textbook which takes into account the development of modern piano pedagogy.7 Winning Features of the Emonts Method:1 Songs from many European countries2 Pupils begin to play without music notation3 Improvisation and playing on the black keys4 Development of listening skills and aural awareness5 Simple and logical learning structure6 Lots of duets7 Attractive full-colour illustrationsVolume 3The third volume of The European Piano Method is not strictly speaking a piano method but rather a collection of meterial and suggestions forthe advanced tution of now slightly older players.The author has therefore concentrated on selecting pieces from the vast wealth of the piano repertoire and grouping them according to specific structural criteria. With this approach technical aspects (playing chord thirds sixths and other intervals) go hand in hand with musical themes (expressive touch extending rhythmic awareness cantabile playing with pedal). These developmental processes should suffuse each other: in the technical procedures on the one hand control over quality of tone clarity and articulation should not falter; the pieces from the piano repertoire on the other hand should gain creative power through everincreasing technical skills.The appendix of Volume 3 contains further 'yellow pages' with ideas for improvisation. the subjects are: Ostinato Bass Patterns Song Accompaniement Completing Melodies Improvising over Chord Progressions Seventh Chords Introduction to Jazz Harmony.
