The Spanish-language Piano tutor series continues. This book introduces the Piano student to a range of new musical disciplines and theory details including:

• Intervals - fourths and fifths
• Dynamics - pianissimo
• Accidentals - sharps flats and naturals
• ABA (Ternary) form and the ritard

The third book in the Hal Leonard Student Piano Library 'Piano Technique' series builds upon skills learned in Piano Technique Books 1 and 2, adding six Major and minor five-finger positions, extended hand positions, and introducing moving from one position to another. Warm-ups and Musical Fitness Plans introduce each new skill, and Etudes follow that use the new skill musically. The exercises in this book are carefully correlated to the music in Piano Lessons Book 3 of the HLSPL, and continue to emphasize our message that 'the music makes the difference!' A corresponding CD and GM accompaniment disk are available. Each Warm-up and Etude has a corresponding, fully orchestrated accompaniment arranged by method author Phillip Keveren.

Piano Technique Book 2, the second book in the Hal Leonard Student Piano Library Piano Technique series, continues to focus on exercises and etudes to build musical skills. The book's user-friendly layout features Party Cat as a fellow student-in-training. Musical fitness plans and warm-ups are included for each etude in the book.
