Reviews
After having taught thousands of students at our conservatory of music, we can say that this book has singlehandedly saved more students at the primer level than any other book. We call it our “student saver” book.We did find that the book is not in order of difficulty, which poses problems in teaching with it unless you pay a lot of attention to what notes, exactly, are used in each song. There are also some songs that are easier than others to teach because of patterns in the melodies.We recommend this order:1) Zoom zoom Witch’s Broom2) Pterodactyls3) Theme and Variations4) Hello to the Drums5) Banappeal (We rewrite the lyrics to be Banana Peel)6) Pony Express7) Chugging Choo Choo8) Eternally MusicThe rest of the songs/pieces aren’t as popular so we usually skip them. We always write words for kids that are more creative or who sing.Kids who finish this book, along with primer theory and technique/artistry, are allowed to move into the level 1 books when they finish. This provides for a fun and smooth transition to the next level.
