Lemoine Tharaud V./ Szabados A.v. - Allegro In Tempo + CD

Summary of This Method

Designed to accompany the 2nd year of musical learning, this musical awakening method continues the work started in the first year by consolidating the fundamentals: active listening, sense of rhythm, sound identification, and first notions of musical reading. The approach remains resolutely playful to maintain attention and encourage the desire to practice, both in class and at home.

Throughout the pages, the child progresses through games, mazes, hands-on activities, and cut-out cards. These varied materials transform learning into accessible challenges while working on essential skills: concentration, coordination, pitch recognition, and the gradual construction of musical vocabulary. The sound puzzles invite careful listening, comparison, identification, and description of what is heard.

The included CD plays a central role: lively and performed by children, it offers a natural approach to music through imitation, singing, pulse, and movement. This "Score + CD" format allows for varied sessions, establishes solid auditory references, and encourages participation, especially in collective musical awakening activities.

A major new feature of this volume: the introduction of Music History. Without burdening the progression, the method offers a first exploration of major stages and styles to give meaning to listening and awaken musical culture. An excellent choice for teachers, music schools, and families seeking a lively, structured method rich in activities.
