Super Studies Volume 1
12 Elementary Pieces for Piano
Printed book — ships from Canada
Super Studies, Volume 1 is a collection of imaginative elementary piano studies by Jen Smith Lanthier and Ian Green, created for early-level pianists who are ready to build strong technical foundations through music that feels expressive and rewarding to play. This collection aims to help elementary pianists develop solid technique, expressive playing, and confidence at the keyboard from the start.
Each of the 12 studies focuses on core pianistic skills—such as hand coordination, five-finger patterns, articulation contrasts, dynamic control, steady rhythm, and developing finger independence—while still being super fun to play! The aim of this collection is to nurture confident technique from the very beginning, making practice feel purposeful, musical, and achievable.
Written for approximately Levels 1–2, Super Studies, Volume 1 works beautifully as:
• Early technical repertoire that builds foundational skills
• Supplementary pieces alongside method books
• Preparatory studies that support long-term technical growth
• Musical selections suitable for recitals and informal performances
