FOREWORD: A NEW approach to piano study Why the reader may well ask. Hasnt the old approach produced hundreds and thousands of excellent pianists True, for such successful students, usually professional musicians, no change is necessary but for the others, less fortunate, the legions of lay musicians, playing the piano can acquire a new meaning. Formerly the non-professional pianist had the same mission as the virtuoso to share his musicianship with an audience. And usually he was just as eager for publicity. He labored many hours over technical exercises and spent years building a reper toire of pieces carefully prepared for performance.
