Piano Teachers’ Clinic Monday, August 13, 2012
On Friday morning, August 10, local piano teachers congregated at Stanton’s for a clinic led by Jennifer Linn from Hal Leonard. She presented her newly released Journey Through the Classics series.
This is a set of four books arranged by level of difficulty to be used to present original piano literature to students. These pieces were written by piano composers/teachers for their own students. They span a range of time from Pachelbel’s “Sarabande”, to Jennifer Linn’s own “Classic Minuet”. A lot of careful thought has gone into this series of delightful books, and they can be easily used alongside the student’s piano method to introduce the classics from the easiest compositions to the intermediate masterworks, such as “Fur Elise” and “Spinning Song”.
