Overview

THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC INSTRUCTION GUIDE is PERFECT FOR ALL LEVELS AND AGE GROUPS AS WELL AS GENERAL CLASSROOM TEACHERS OR MUSIC TEACHERS. Complete with everything you need to know about the piano from charts to the history of music, THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC INSTRUCTION GUIDE is a thorough teaching guide for students learning the fundamentals of music, as well as a guide that supplements material already used by budding musicians. According to Rutger s University graduate Ms. DuBose-Smith, I first conceived this book while writing my Master s Thesis, Learning How to Play Jazz Piano from the Beginner s Point of View. I later began teaching and developed my book even more in order to give you EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO BECOME EXPERT PIANO PLAYERS. THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC INSTRUCTION GUIDE serves as a foundation for a formal music education and a diverse music experience for music students of all levels and ages. THE MOST THOROUGH GUIDE EVER WRITTEN IS A MUST HAVE FOR ANYONE WHO EVER THOUGHT ABOUT PLAYING THE PIANO. THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC INSTRUCTION GUIDE is broken up into 4 Logical Sections made up into specific lessons followed by a review in the forms of Questions, Music, Listening Exercises, Musical Puzzles, African American and European American Music History.
