Level 3 is for graduates of Level 2 or Older Beginner Level 2 and builds directly on the knowledge from Levels 1 and 2.  Level 3, an advanced beginner piano book, completes our concentrated study of treble clef notes by teaching up to ledger note B above the treble staff, in addition to reviewing the entire bass staff. Level 3 also encompasses whole/half steps; melodic interval studies; chord studies including root position chords, inversions, broken chords, I to V7 chord changes; how to build a scale; key signatures; parallel scales; 6/8 compound rhythm; 6/4 time signature; ottava; anacrusis; introduction to classics including sonata form; and note stem/flag rules. Major and harmonic minor scales/cadences and a glossary are included at the front of the book.

(Level 3 is exactly the same material as the previously printed Level 3A and Level 3B of The Mayron Cole Piano Method.)
