• many short, characterful pieces to sight-read, in a range of approachable musical styles
• warm-up and technical exercises, to establish basic hand shapes and fi nger patterns within each key
• simple improvisation exercises in which students can explore musical ideas and familiarize themselves further with the ‘feel’ of each key
• longer solo pieces and some duets and trios, for additional sight-reading practice or to learn quickly and play through for fun
