Piano is the main lesson book in the Bastien Piano Basics course. The carefully graded, logical learning sequence assures steady, continual progress. Original music by the Bastiens includes a stimulating mixture of pop, folk, classical, and contemporary styles. Full-color illustrations throughout entertain and reinforce musical concepts along the way. The gradual multi-key approach takes students through all 12 keys -- 3 in each of Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4. Each page is carefully correlated page-by-page with Theory, Performance,andTechnic. All in all, a dynamic way to introduce students to the marvelous world of music! Level 2 presents binary and ternary form, one-octave scales with tetrachords identified, intervals of 6th and 7th, primary chords, triads and inversions, 6/8 time, and the keys of D, A, and E.

James Bastien was an influential American pedagogue and composer, specialized in piano teaching. Alongside his wife Jane Smisor Bastien, he developed an accessible approach to musical education, combining theory, technique, and repertoire in a progressive method. His publications have been widely used in academies and by private teachers, facilitating the learning of students of all ages.

Among his most recognized works is Bastien Piano Basics (1985), a series of books structured in levels that have served as a foundation for piano teaching worldwide. He also co-wrote The Older Beginner Piano Course (1977), aimed at adults beginning their musical training. These works, within the educational-musical genre, have had a lasting impact on the training of pianists.
