New Method For The Piano Forte.
BY CHARLES GROBE.
Opus 1100.
Price, 82 50 nelt.
Bound in Cloth, 3 00 nett.
A good instruction book lor the Piano has
long been wanting, and Mr Chari.es Grobu
has performed the labor, in getting this one
up in the moat admirable \unil suti-/.ictory man
ner. It will prove itsell one of the most
valuable guides in the instructiuti of the art
of playining on the Piano.
Considering the author's well known ca
pacity, and long and unremitliiug devotion
to the task of elementary teaching, we have
strong reason to hope that the public are
now to he furnished with a thorough, sys
tematic, progressive, and entertaining meth
od for the Piano.
We can confidently recommend it to
leathers and pupils as better adapted to tho
purpeses of elementary instruction than any
others with which we are acquainted.
The plan pursued in this work is substan
tially ibe same as that developed in Ollen
droff's method of teaching languages. It
commences with the simplest elements.—
The progress made will be gradual, so that
every step will be perfectly inteligtble. and
be rendered of positive value to tho pupil.—
Every difficulty is met with single, and, af
ter thorough analysis, overcome by practice.
This method will, undoubtedly, provide
teachers witn a welt digested, progressive,
and enterlaitig plan by which a sound and
correct knowledge of the art of playing the
piano may be acquired with comparatively
little labor, and in so short a space ol time
as will almost seem incredible to those who
have confined themselves to some of the te
dious systems heretofore in use.
This work contains ten ongraved figures,
illustrating tho different positions of the
hands ami fingers ; and also a likeness of
the author.
Its typographical accuracy and appear
ance have never been equalled in any mu
sical work that has heretofore been issued,
from the press in this or any other couttt^H
Copies will be sent by mail, free of pHH
age, on the receipt ol the marked price.
