Success in All Keys by Eric Allen

 

The new Success in All Keys series of books offer an innovative approach to teaching and learning all key signatures.

Traditional etude and method books combine difficult key signatures with other challenges such as advanced rhythms, extremes in range, accidentals and ornamentation. With this level of complexity, learning to play in all keys frustrates students and their teachers. With a singular focus on key signatures, learning to play in all keys becomes achievable, not intimidating.
