and Chopin. As with all of the books in Succeeding with the Masters, Dr. Marlais presents each work within the context of its social and historical time. Valuable practice strategies for each piece help teachers guide their students in developing the correct technique and musical style. Just listen to your students take off when they realize that they can play pieces by the greatest composers who have ever lived. Students want to succeed, and when they succeed with the masters they know that they have done something special. There is no better motivator!
