Intervallic Reading Series
The Intervallic Reading Series provides supplemental repertoire that
allows students from all backgrounds and methods to benefit from
playing interesting pieces which emphasize intervallic reading. This
early elementary/elementary version of Be
A Star! provides practice strategies
that focus on blocking, interval reading, finger placement, as well
as directional reading-encouraging students to learn to read
intervals and patterns in music, instead of reading note by note. |

Late Elementary
The
Intervallic Reading Series
provides supplemental repertoire that allows students from all
backgrounds and methods to benefit from playing interesting pieces
which emphasize intervallic reading. This Late Elementary addition
encourages students to read intervals and patterns in the music
rather than reading note by note. Because the pieces are based on
patterns, reading the music will sound impressive without being too
terribly difficult. Also includes beginning practice strategies at
the top of each piece for further learning. |

Early Intermediate / Mid-Intermediate
In
Book 3,
the early intermediate to mid-intermediate piano student will further
their understanding of compositional forms, chords, phrases,
intervals, and patterns within a piece of music. Following Helen
Marlais' carefully crafted practice strategies, the students'
awareness and ability to identify and label these forms, chords, and
intervals, allows them to gain the freedom to read a piece of music
as a unified whole rather than several small parts. |

Early Elementary/Elementary
This book is part of the Intervallic
Reading Series that focuses on reading
intervals and patterns rather than note by note. Along with playing
on the white keys, students will also play pieces on black keys
utilizing a giant flat sign. This giant flat sign indicates that all
notes on the staff are to be played as flats (on the black keys). A
pencil icon at the top of each page highlights a beginning practice
strategy such as blocking, identifying, and circling intervals. At
the end of the book, there is an interval review where the student
identifies which piece the interval examples are found in. |
