dc.description.abstractThis thesis seeks to help the private piano instructor connect the teaching of repertoire with theoretical concepts. A specific aim of this project is to provide a guide for piano teachers to introduce music theory fundamentals during lessons, which I do through a series of objectives and activities I call Theory Takeaways. The main purpose of these takeaways is to help students build fluency in music theory fundamentals while learning repertoire. This type of preparation can help those who want to pursue an undergraduate degree in music to succeed on entrance exams often required by universities, in addition to preparing them for music theory at the college level. Preexisting theory method books place music theory as something apart from piano playing, creating a significant gap between music theory concepts and the repertoire being performed by the student. This project seeks to explore more correlations between piano playing and learning music theory.
