The Level A Bundle combines the Repertoire and Theory books of the Cadenza Piano Method into one complete starting point for new pianists. Together, the two books provide a modern, simplified take on traditional pre-reading—flexible enough for children, teens, or adults in private lessons and group settings.

The Repertoire book uses off-staff notation on black keys, with short, patterned pieces that introduce finger numbers, steady beat, and basic rhythms. Each piece is simple and approachable, building confidence from the very first lesson.

The Theory book reinforces these same concepts through written activities while adding frequent composition and improvisation prompts to encourage creativity.

Students will learn and reinforce:

• Hands and finger numbers

• Off-staff notation using black keys

• Quarter, half, dotted half, and whole notes and corresponding rests

• 4/4 and 3/4 time signatures

• Clefs, stem direction, bar lines, measures, double bar line, brace

• Skipping-finger technique

• Composition and improvisation on black keys

Each stage balances confidence-building repertoire with creative theory work, ensuring progress in technique, musicianship, and keyboard geography.

With this bundle, teachers gain a complete method sequence that works equally well in private or group settings for children, teens, or adults.

Level B of the Cadenza Piano Method builds on the foundation from Level A by introducing the white keys and the musical alphabet. Students progress into pentascales, arpeggios, and early hands-together playing, building both technique and keyboard geography before transitioning to the staff.

This level continues in a pre-reading format, using letter names and solfege syllables to establish fluency across the white keys. With a modern, simplified design, it works equally well for children, teens, and adults in private or group settings.

Students will learn:

• The musical alphabet

• Pentascales in C, G, Dm, and Am

• Arpeggios in C, G, F, Dm, Am, and Em

• Major and minor Solfege (Moveable Do)

• Hands together in parallel motion

• Dynamics: piano and forte

• Repeat signs and ties

Level C of the Cadenza Piano Method is the final step in the beginner journey, guiding students into confident reading on the grand staff. Beginning with middle C, students gradually expand to all lines and spaces of both treble and bass clef. Through intervallic reading, mnemonics, and steady reinforcement, they learn to connect notation to the keyboard without relying on fixed hand positions.

This level establishes the skills students need to leave pre-reading behind and move naturally into repertoire collections such as Imaginative Repertoire and beyond. With a focus on steps, skips, and early harmony, Level C provides a strong foundation for independent reading and expressive playing.

Students will learn:

• The grand staff

• Harmonic and melodic intervals: 2nds, 3rds, and 5ths

• All lines and spaces of treble and bass clef

• Mnemonics for lines and spaces

• Sharps and flats

• Moving hand positions (non-positional reading)

• Major and minor pentascales and triads: C, D, E, F, G, A
