Synopsis

Excerpt from Piano Teaching

Some few of the ideas thus brought forward I have gleaned from writings on the subject; many have come from my teach~ ers and other friends in the profession; while the remainder have occurred as the fruit of my own labors. None of them, therefore, are advocated merely from a theoretical course of reasoning, but all have been tried in the furnace of actual experience, and have not been found wanting.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Realizing that there is an almost total lack of available and systematic literature to which I can refer them, I have attempted to supply this deficiency in the following pages. In doing so, I have constantly borne in mind actual questions which have been propounded to me concerning the subjects discussed. To these I have not attempted to give encyclopedic answers, but have simply suggested directions in which solutions may be discovered by the ingenuity of the teacher. Some few of the ideas thus brought forward I have gleaned from writings on the subject; many have come from my teachers and other friends in the profession; while the remainder have occurred as the fruit of my own labors. None of them, therefore, are advocated merely from a theoretical course of reasoning, but all have been tried in the furnace of actual experience, and have not been found wanting. I venture to hope, accordingly, that among the thoughts presented each piano teacher may discover something of stimulating power, and that those who are now piano students, or are seeking by themselves to keep in touch with modern methods and materials, may find an occasional help by the way. It is possible, also, that the book may be found useful by those conservatories and private teachers who are engaged in the laudable and much needed work of conducting training classes for future music teachers. Clarence G. Hamilton. Wellesley, Mass., June 9, 1910.

Excerpt from Piano Teaching: Its Principles and Problems

I am frequently asked by students who are starting out on their own account as piano teachers, or who have had some experience in some such work, for advice concerning knotty problems which they are encountering. Realizing that there is an almost total lack of available and systematic literature to which I can refer them, I have attempted to supply this deficiency in the following pages. In doing so, I have constantly borne in mind actual questions which have been propounded to me concerning the subjects discussed. To these I have not attempted to give encyclopedic answers, but have simply suggested directions in which solutions may be discovered by the ingenuity of the teacher.
