Synopsis

Piano Teaching: Its Principles And Problems is a book written by Clarence Grant Hamilton in 1910. The book is a comprehensive guide to teaching piano, covering a wide range of topics related to piano pedagogy. It discusses the principles of piano teaching, including the importance of technique, ear training, and sight-reading. It also addresses common problems that piano teachers may encounter, such as dealing with difficult students, motivating students to practice, and selecting appropriate repertoire.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of piano teaching. The first chapter provides an overview of the principles of piano teaching, while the second chapter discusses the importance of technique and how to teach it effectively. The third chapter focuses on ear training, while the fourth chapter covers sight-reading.The later chapters of the book deal with more advanced topics, such as teaching interpretation and expression, selecting repertoire, and preparing students for performance. There are also chapters on teaching children and dealing with adult students, as well as a chapter on the business aspects of piano teaching.Overall, Piano Teaching: Its Principles And Problems is a valuable resource for piano teachers of all levels. It provides practical advice and strategies for teaching piano effectively, and it remains a classic text in the field of piano pedagogy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

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.
