Imagine the student’s sound unfurling like a warm pastry: over twelve months we will marry Piano Adventures repertoire with medieval sacred and secular textures — Hildegard’s chant, chansons de geste, Minnesinger melodies — and a daily technique diet drawn from Hanon‑Faber and the Scale & Chord Books. Months 1–3: core posture, gestures, and Hanon‑Faber warm‑ups layered over Level 1 scales; Months 4–6: phrase shaping, modal reading of chant, Level 2 scales and simple minnesang arrangements; Months 7–9: contrapuntal awareness, embellished chansons, improvisation over medieval modes with Scale & Chord Book Level 3; Months 10–12: performance polish, contextual program notes, and a recital blending sacred chant and secular songs. Pedagogically this fosters expressive performance, aural literacy, historical understanding, and compositional thinking. Use Hanon‑Faber to perfect healthy movement and the Scale & Chord books to internalise patterns and harmony — they are complementary. Assessment aligns with ACARA v9 Music: Making (performance & technique), Responding (aural and analytical), and Understanding (musicology and context), with formative check‑ins each term and a capstone recital. Gentle weekly pacing — three technique sessions, two repertoire sessions, one improvisation/ear‑training session — will season steady progress and keep study delectable. I will provide termly rubrics and reflective prompts to sustain curiosity and craft.
