For years I have been searching for a book that successfully explores the connection between performance and pedagogy in repertoire. Hats off to Rhoden who has finally filled that gap. -- Michelle Conda * Professor Emerita of Piano and Piano Pedagogy, University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, USA * Based on her years of experience, Rhoden has produced a comprehensive, practical guide for piano teachers to ensure that they traverse the wide-ranging intermediate level effectively. Her organization and attention to detail provides teachers with a clear pathway through the concepts that must be taught at the intermediate level. This book will be helpful for piano teachers and students of pedagogy and is a welcome addition to any piano teacher’s library. -- John Ellis * Professor of Music, Director of Graduate Studies in Piano Pedagogy, University of Michigan *
