Features: The purpose of writing this book is to enable teachers and students to engage in teaching and learning with joy and achieve the best learning results more quickly. This book continues the "step-by-step" approach from the previous volume. Considering the needs of modern beginners, the content of this volume is not limited to piano music. To allow young students to enjoy both appreciation and piano, examples from light operas, ballets, grand operas, oratorios, and songs have been selected and annotated. This maintains the slogan of this teaching material: "Each lesson has new content." It is necessary for the previous volume to mostly stay in the five-finger hand position, and this volume gradually expands the hand position. The main learning content includes: thumb passing under the palm and hand passing over the thumb, ledger lines, pedals, major scales and relative minor scales, major and parallel minor scales, hand extension, cadences, arpeggios, examples and string analysis of dominant seventh chords, vibrato, different touch techniques, and other lessons.
