Education for Absolute Pitch
A New Way to Learn Piano

Education for Absolute Pitch is the instruction manual for the We Hear and Play piano method.  This handbook is designed to be easily understood by both teachers and parents.

Education for Absolute Pitch explains everything you need to know in order to begin working with the We Hear and Play system, including

- How to play the musical games, which are the core of We Hear and Play
- How to introduce a young child to piano technique
- Suggested lesson plans and teacher guidance
- Detailed instruction for each of the musical pieces in all three piano books

Colored ballsColored balls

These colored plastic balls are required to play the We Hear and Play ear training games.  Ear training games are an essential component of the We Hear and Play system.

It is possible to play the games with only one set of balls, but at least four sets are recommended.  Each additional set of balls increases your child's opportunities to invent and discover as they play the games.

The colored balls are made of a lightweight, non-toxic plastic, and are perfectly sized for a child's hands.

Colored stickers

The We Hear and Play system requires that the piano keys be marked with colored dots in each of these seven colors.  Four sets of 3/4" dots are enough to cover the main octaves of the piano keyboard.

These stickers are color-matched to the We Hear and Play piano system.

Although 3/4" sticky dots can be found at any office-supply stores, it is usually difficult to find brown, grey, and orange; furthermore, office-supply colors do not always correspond to those featured in We Hear and Play.  For greatest convenience and effectiveness, this set of stickers is recommended.
