Features: In this book, we have provided concise annotations on the genre characteristics of some works, the authors' lives and creative features, as well as teaching requirements for piano performance. We aim to closely integrate the teaching of basic music theory, the understanding and expression of musical imagery, and piano playing techniques from the beginning of piano teaching. This will enable students to achieve a solid and comprehensive improvement and development in their musical qualities and professional level. Regarding etudes, since works such as those by Béla Bartók and Carl Czerny have already been published as piano etudes in China, this tutorial has selected exercises from those works while also incorporating a significant number of practical etudes written by other piano educators. This is done to make the book more practical and to ensure more comprehensive technical training. Some piano pieces in this book can be used as accompaniment for songs. This selection is tailored to the needs of students in teacher training institutions who require learning chord accompaniment. For such pieces, lyrics are often provided at the end. Additionally, teachers can select more and richer accompaniment materials from systematic vocal textbooks.
