The Waterman/Harewood Piano Series series
The publication of the Waterman/Harewood Series in 1967 launched Faber Music's educational list and firmly established its reputation in the market. Piano Lessons Book 1 was one of the first 'modern' piano tutors, written by Fanny Waterman and Marion Harewood, daughter of the musicologist and Schoenberg pupil, Erwin Stein. Their piano tutor series Me and my piano, published in 1989, is now a best-seller in Faber Music's educational list; combined sales of their publications will soon reach two million copies.
Piano for Pleasure follows Piano Progress (by the same authors) in providing a graded sequence of pieces by master composers from Bach to Bartok.
Here is an enjoyable, varied repertoire for the pianist who has mastered a basic technique. Alongside the solo pieces there are duets, which will provide a welcome opportunity for players to enjoy making music with others.
