The Music Tree: Student's Book, Time to Begin

Subtitle :

A Plan for Musical Growth at the Piano

Introduction :

Time to Begin is the foundational cornerstone of the Music Tree series, offering a unique and highly effective approach to beginning piano instruction. Developed by legendary pedagogues Frances Clark, Louise Goss, and Sam Holland, this method is designed to lead the student through a natural and logical discovery of music at the keyboard.

Product Features :

Strongly Recommended: This book utilizes an off-staff notation approach that focuses on melodic direction and intervals before transitioning to the Grand Staff. It provides a comprehensive curriculum that integrates rhythm, technic, and creative work into every lesson. With 72 pages of pedagogical excellence, it is a proven method for building musical independence in young beginners.

Performance Tips :

• Focus on Direction: In the early off-staff units, help students recognize the physical feeling of moving 'up' and 'down' the keyboard to match the visual direction of the notes.
• Interval Recognition: Emphasize the distance between notes (steps and skips) to build a solid foundation for fluent reading before letter names are introduced.
• Rhythmic Integrity: Use the dedicated rhythm program to ensure students are feeling a steady pulse through physical movement or vocalization.
• Creative Ownership: Encourage students to explore the 'creative work' sections to help them feel like they are making their own music from the very first lesson.

About the Composer :

Frances Clark and Louise Goss were pioneers in piano pedagogy and the co-founders of the New School for Music Study. Sam Holland is a renowned educator and author who continued their legacy of child-centered, research-based piano instruction.

鋼琴之樹：準備出發 (Student's Book, Time to Begin)

副標題 :

鋼琴音樂成長計畫

內容簡介 :

《準備出發》（Time to Begin）是著名鋼琴教材《鋼琴之樹》（Music Tree）系列的基石，為鋼琴初學者提供了一套獨特且高效的學習方法。由教育大師佛蘭西斯·克拉克、路易絲·高斯與山姆·荷蘭共同編寫，引導學生透過自然的探索過程，從認識鍵盤方位到發現大譜表。

產品特點 :

重點推薦：本書採用非五線譜記譜法（Off-staff notation）啟蒙，讓學生在接觸複雜的譜表前，先掌握音符的方向感與音程概念。課程設計完整涵蓋了節奏、技巧與創意發想，全書 72 頁內容經過精密的教學邏輯編排，是培養初學者音樂獨立性的卓越教材。

演奏提示 :

• 強調方向感：在非五線譜單元中，引導學生體會手部在鍵盤上「向上」與「向下」移動的感覺，以對應譜面上的視覺方向。
• 音程辨識：著重於音符間的距離（級進與跳進），在學習音名前先建立紮實的識譜基礎。
• 節奏訓練：利用書中的節奏計畫，確保學生透過身體律動或口說節奏來感受穩定的拍律。
• 創意啟發：鼓勵學生完成「創意工作」部分，讓他們從第一堂課開始就體驗「創作自己音樂」的成就感。

作曲家介紹 :
