This course continues the work begun in Keyboard I. Emphasis is on strength and positioning; coordination of the hands is more highly developed and stressed. In addition, it expands sightreading of simple two-part pieces for the piano and introduces chord symbol interpretation using 3-note shell voicing. Students harmonize melodies using broken chords and hand position changes; perform piano music using inversions and arpeggiated figures; and perform short ensemble pieces and longer solos from a piano score.
