Carle
Hodson's
Popular Piano Playing by Chord
This method is available in four volumes. By applying
the instructions given in this method, the person with little
or no musical knowledge can play favorite songs in only a few
lessons.
|
Book One teaches the basic chords, and gives
the student a foundation in music chording. In this book, only
waltz rhythm is taught.
|
 |
Students progressing from Volume One will find Volume
Two as interesting and as constructive. Because popular songs
are continually changing, this method has been compiled to include
many standard compositions. This book introduces the 4/4 tempo. |
|
Volume Three should prove interesing to the
student who is familiar with chords as taught in previous volumes.
Volume Three teaches the application of harmonies in the right
hand, and the use and application of those harmonies in popular
songs. |
The
fourth volume is a continuation of the first three books. Book
four deals mainly with ideas and effects used in popular piano
playing today. |
