Primer A: from the first lesson to legato and staccato
Primer B: from dynamics to scales and broken chords
Level 1: from hands-together to Elementary Level
Ms Roskell's book demonstrates that she has a profound understanding of the obstacle- technical, musical, physiological, or psychological-encountered by pianists of any age, and an ability to express that understanding in logical terms. I wish I had had access to her book when I was younger."
