Racing Car

Beethoven Bear and Mozart Mouse want you to drive a racing car.

1. Pretend that you are in the driver’s seat as you sing Racing Car.

2. Sing again and play a glissando each time you say “zoom.” Honk your horn by tapping “beep, beep, beep” on black keys.

Use with page 9.

One of the pieces that the music friends heard on the piano recital in the city was a waltz by Johannes Brahms. It was one of Nannerl Mouse’s favorites!

Brahms was born in 1833 in Hamburg, Germany. His father played the string bass and began teaching Johannes piano when he was only five years old. He gave his first piano recital when he was 14 and played pieces by J. S. Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven. The next year he played one of his own pieces in a recital.

A friend introduced Brahms to Robert and Clara Schumann and they became life-long friends. Even though Brahms had many friends, he liked to spend his summers alone in the mountains where it was quiet.

Brahms often went on concert tours as both a pianist and a conductor. In addition to his works for orchestra, chorus, and piano, he wrote over 200 songs. One of these songs is the famous Brahms Lullaby that your parents may have sung when you were a baby, to help you go to sleep.

Draw or paste a picture of yourself next to Johannes Brahms in the Gallery of Famous Musicians.

Minor Scale ProAn Introduction to Minor Scales Beginning on White KeysBy Melody Bober, Gayle Kowalchyk & E. L. LancasterMinor Scale Pro, Book 1 introduces students to the seven white-key minor scales in a systematic way. Basics of building a natural minor scale are presented, first by learning the pattern of whole steps and half steps, and then relating each minor key to its relative major. Students then learn how to build harmonic minor and melodic minor scales from the natural minor. Minor Scale Pro, Book 2 introduces students to the five black-key minor scales in a systematic way. Optional teacher duets are included for both one-octave and two-octave scales in both volumes.

Minor Scale Basics

3. How do major and minor scales relate to each other?

Every major key has a relative minor key that has the same key signature. The relative minor begins on the 6th tone of the major scale. The relative minor of C major is, therefore, A minor.

Because the keys of C major and A minor have the same key signature (no sharps or flats), they are relatives.

The minor scale shown below is called the natural minor scale. It uses only notes that are found in the relative major scale.

2. How can I build a minor scale?

Any minor scale can be formed by following this sequence of whole and half steps: W H W W H W W.

C MAJOR SCALE

A MINOR SCALE

1. What is a minor scale?

A minor scale consists of eight notes following a specific sequence of whole and half steps. Each scale begins and ends on the keynote—the note that has the same name as the scale.

RainPhiladelphia Museum of Art

In Rain (1889), the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890)

captures the bleak mood of rain falling on the wheat fields of southern France, where he was living at the time. Van

Gogh’s distinctive use of brushstrokes and textures creates a unique mood in each of his paintings. In Rain, he uses diagonal

slashes of paint to create the rain. (Music: page 24)

Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer INeue Galerie, New York

The commissioned painting Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I (1903–1907) is a prime example of the “Byzantine” or “Golden” period of Austrian artist

Gustav Klimt (1862–1918). In this work, oil, silver, and gold leaf are used on canvas, and the shimmer of the gold creates a magical effect. The story of how

this painting made its way from Vienna to New York is captured in the movie Woman in Gold. (Music: page 26)

Character Pieces in Romantic StyleBy Martha Mier

Composers first began writing character pieces in the Romantic period as a personal, inward-looking form of musical expression, on a smaller scale than the sonatas of the Classical period. These new character pieces emulate this important art form from the Romantic period and are carefully graded for students at the late elementary to early advanced level. Some are bold in character, while others are lyrical and introspective.

Ride the River

Robert D. and Karen Vandall

The Colorado River flows as much as 6,000 feet below the canyon’s rim. The canyon was formed over millions of years by the river cutting through layers of stone and rock. Many people experience the Grand Canyon through whitewater rafting trips that offer a unique and spectacular way to view the canyon.

Help Us Help Other Music Teachers

The best advice comes from lived experience, and we want to hear about yours. As a piano teacher with first-hand experience teaching music remotely, we’d like to share your insights, tips, and expertise with other teachers in an effort to ensure the success of the greater music education community as we all approach a new school year filled

with uncertainty. Here are 3 ways you can help us help other music teachers:

Submit a BlogDo you have practical, step-by-step solutions for specific challenges teachers are facing right now? Did you create a virtual concert or recital at the end of the year? Do you have remote lesson ideas you’d like to share? We’d love to hear about it!

Even if you think you aren’t a blog author, that’s okay. Our editors can help!

Provide a TestimonialWhat helped make your remote teaching experience successful? What Alfred Music resources did you utilize that might be useful to other piano teachers? What did you learn about yourself and your students during the process? Do you have words of encouragement for other teachers as they embark on continued uncertainty?

Send a Quick TipHave a quick teaching tip, list of dos and don’ts, or a piece of advice for other teachers? Share with us, and we’ll share with our community of piano music educators.
