In the last New Release Club shipment from FJH there was a flier announcing a new piano method by Helen Marlais that will be available in March, 2010. I am thrilled! Helen Marlais’ books are all fabulous and I can’t wait to see what this new method is like! The two cover illustrations portrayed on the flier are very attractive; I especially love that they include a whole group of kids sitting around the piano, participating in the musical experience. If you are interested in receiving a complimentary copy when it is released, just sign up on this page of the FJH website.
What I’m even more excited about, though, is that Dr. Marlais will be showcasing the method at its official launch at the MTNA conference in Albuquerque! She was in our local area a couple of years ago for a workshop and is an incredibly engaging and personable presenter. So, her workshop will definitely be at the top of my list!
When will the rest of the series “Succeeding at the Piano” be released. This is an exciting adventure at the piano, and listening to the CD is so helpful. My students will absolutely love this music and presentation of music. It is quite refreshing and exciting.
