COURSE OF STUDY
The Course of Study is divided into Primary, Intermediate,
and Certificate. The object of the four-year course in piano
study is to give the student a complete knowledge of piano
literature composed by the greatest masters of the Classical,
Romantic, and Modern epochs of pianism.
The two principles of piano playing are presented from a
psychological as well as a musical point of view. The method
of imparting the technical principles of piano playing is drawn
from a careful study of the methods used by such teachers of
technique as Leschetizky, Mason, Virgil, and from the principles
of weight playing. Aside from keeping up the correct technical
att.'nmcnts throughout the different stages of the course of
study, certain requirements must be met for the completion of
each year's course. The requirements are given as follows:
