Synopsis "Alfred's Basic Piano Prep Course Lesson Book, bk d de Morton Manus(Alfred Publishing co (Uk) Ltd)"

Alfred's Basic Prep Course, Levels A through F, was written to answer a demand for a course of piano study designed specifically for students who are five years old and up. This course offers a careful introduction of fundamentals, music that fits comfortably under the young student's normal hand span, plus constant reinforcement--all leading to results beyond those generated by other piano methods. After Lesson Book D, the student may progress to Prep Course, Lesson Book E or choose to go directly into the faster paced Level 2 of Alfred's Basic Piano Library. The complete Prep Course consists of six books (Levels A through F).

Willard A. Palmer was a distinguished American musician, educator, and author, primarily known for his contributions to the study and teaching of piano. He was born in 1917 and devoted much of his life to developing pedagogical methods that facilitated musical learning for both children and adults.

Along with his colleagues Morton Manus and Amanda Vick Lethco, Palmer co-created the famous "Alfred’s Basic Piano Library" series, one of the most widely used collections worldwide for piano teaching. This method, published by Alfred Music, is characterized by its progressive, accessible, and well-structured approach, combining technique, theory, and repertoire in a balanced way.

In addition to being an author, Palmer was a talented accordionist and composer. He also conducted significant studies on Baroque music, especially on ornamentation and performance on keyboard instruments, which led him to edit and publish academic versions of works by J.S. Bach and other composers.

His legacy endures in millions of students and teachers who have used his methods. Willard A. Palmer passed away in 1996, but his influence remains alive in the world of music education.
