Features: The purpose of writing this book is to enable teachers and students to engage in teaching and learning happily and achieve the best learning results more quickly. This book continues the "step-by-step" approach of the previous volume. Considering the needs of modern beginners, the content of the second volume is not limited to piano music. To allow young students to enjoy both appreciation and piano playing, examples from light opera, ballet, grand opera, oratorio, and songs have been selected and annotated. This adheres to the slogan of this teaching material: "Every lesson has new content." It is necessary for most of the previous volume to remain in the five-finger position, but this volume gradually expands the hand position. The main learning content includes: the thumb passing under the palm and the hand passing over the thumb, adding lines, pedals, scales of major keys and their relative minor keys, enharmonic minor keys, hand extension, cadences, arpeggios, examples and string analysis of dominant seventh chords, trills, different types of touch, and other lessons.
