Description

This studio-licensed pre-staff Halloween piano sheet music collection includes 10 original pre-reading solos for beginning piano students. Click here for the elementary version.

The collection from start to finish follows a child’s experiences throughout the Halloween season, from finding the perfect costume to carving pumpkins, trick-or-treating, attending a Halloween party, learning a new dance, enjoying Halloween candy, and finally going to sleep after a long and fun-filled Halloween.

This piano book introduces students to various styles, including Boogie and Blues. It is designed to provide a solid foundation for beginning piano students while offering a fun, Halloween-themed learning experience throughout the month of October.

The entire collection can be performed by one student or a group of students in the order presented in the book, or any of your choosing. The pieces can also be performed individually.

Teach Beginners to Play Musically with 3 Music Rules

I firmly believe that all students are musical.

Even if they don’t know how to play musically at first, they can be taught how to play musically.

We just need to provide them with the necessary information and tools at their level in ways that are easy for them to understand and use.

To help my beginners play musically from the very beginning, I introduce them to 3 Music Rules.

You can learn more about these rules and download a set of free posters by reading 3 Simple Rules to Help Your Piano Students Play Musically.
