A Method Based in Solfa
PianoForte
is a creative method based on the principles of Kodály, Orff & Gordon who believed that '
sound should come before symbol
'.
The PianoForte Method
combines these methods with traditional high quality piano teaching to provide students with a creative, progressive method that develops aural skills through Moveable Solfa.
