Study in C major, Op. 190 No. 2

F.8 Five notes in C

Study Köhler Op. 190 No. 2 in the C five-finger position, reading its two treble-clef staves in whole and half notes. Try the damper pedal with a held note: press it with the note and lift it with the next. In A Second Voice, an original warm-up written for the Method, hold one line while the other begins its imitation. For Beyer’s alternative, play the pupil part with the app’s teacher.
