About this ebook
This book of pieces aims to establish good practice and provide an early introduction to the essential skill of sight-reading. In Part 1 the basic keys of C, G, F and D major and A and D minor are explored while keeping the movement limited to steps, skips and repeated notes in a 5-note range. In Part 2 students are encouraged to identify the key for themselves. Accidentals, dotted notes, simple ties and syncopations occur in the exercises. Intervals of 4ths and 5ths are also included.
