Reading by interval is a musical, logical, and successful approach to music reading. Use this book to supplement a beginning method, or as a new way to help improve already existing reading skills. Each unit presents a simple approach to learning by providing experiences in each of these areas:

• Exploring - discover intervals on the keyboard
• Writing - see how intervals are expressed in staff notation
• Playing - understand how intervals correlate to the fingers of the hand
• Reading - practice intervals with short reading examples
• Creating - compose and improvise using intervals
• Repertoire - discover how newly learned intervals appear in the repertoire

Students of any age, with or without the guidance of a teacher, will benefit from the activities in this book and the reading process it demonstrates using folk tunes, classic repertoire, and original compositions.
