The Repertoire Book

For Level One of The Contemporary Piano Method

Containing repertoire for Level One (A and B) of the Contemporary Piano Method, this book presents simple two part arrangements, or chordal accompaniments for many well-known pieces, ranging from folk melodies to much loved classics through to the Twelve Bar blues tunes and Margaret's original piece 'Arabian Rock'.

The arrangements and technical exercises (Dexter-Flexers) are specially designed to allow the fingers of both hands to remain on the keyboard so that the interval reading method can be fostered. Too many rests disturb the reading process for beginners, so it is better for the reading process to use a legato touch which allows students to feel their position on the keys.

The Repertoire Book Cover
  • Tunes allow students to consolidate the direction concepts introduced in the Junior Primer and Level One A, and are suitable for transposition.
  • Extra pages for easy rhythm training using colour and clap graphics.
  • Pictorial Patterns for scales to aid in transposition to all keys.

  • Proportional note-spacing and timing diagrams throughout.
This book may be used on its own or in conjunction with Book One of the Contemporary Piano Method, providing supplementary material in the key areas covered by the Methods. It provides both original reading and technical material and arrangements of popular and Classical pieces.
This edition contains extra pages for easy rhythm training, using the colour and clap graphics and the Pictorial Patterns for the scales to aid in transposition to all keys.
