J. Curwen and Sons.
A most important addition to the large number of teaching manuals already published is the Child Pianist, divided into grades and steps, and combining in a thoughtful and systematic way a little theory and a little practice, never forcing a child, and never letting the head get in front of the hands or vice versâ. Accompanying these steps with their capital duets for pupil and teacher, by J. Kinross, written after the manner of Lebert and Stark’s book, we have a Teacher’s Guide to the Child Pianist, an assistance to young teachers, and an essential explanation to the exercises and method. We cannot too highly estimate the care and management displayed by Mrs. J. S. Curwen, the authoress of these valuable works.
