Alfred d'Auberge Piano Course: Recital Book 2: Piano Book

A collection of accessible, musically rewarding pieces that feel like natural extensions of daily technical work. Each piece gives students the chance to apply what they've learned in lessons to real musical expression, with repertoire scaled appropriately for early intermediate pianists.

Piano students working through Alfred d'Auberge's Lesson Book 2 curriculum who need a coordinated source of recital material and supplementary pieces. This book serves both learners who move through lessons at a faster pace and those who benefit from extended work on technical and musical skills before advancing.

• Assign pieces from this book as performance material once the corresponding lesson page has been covered in Lesson Book 2, ensuring students perform repertoire they know thoroughly.
• Use recital pieces to mark progress through the curriculum; performing a piece from this book makes the connection between daily practice and public musicianship concrete.
• Select pieces strategically based on your student's needs: those moving quickly through lessons can jump ahead to material in later sections, while students who benefit from extra time can repeat pieces at different tempos across weeks.

Organize recitals or studio performances by assigning one or two pieces from this book to each student once they've completed the corresponding material in Lesson Book 2. The coordinated design also works well for assigning supplementary practice pieces between lessons without adding separate purchases.

• Reading and performing the repertoire introduced through Lesson Book 2 curriculum
• Connecting technical practice to musical performance
• Building recital repertoire at an appropriate level
• Sight-reading and learning pieces independently with teacher guidance
