This intensive subject will explore keyboard repertoire with special reference to music for solo piano, from the eighteenth century to the present day.
Repertoire at all levels of difficulty and representing all major styles, including some contemporary styles, will be covered. The study of this repertoire will provide a direct link to studio practice for keyboard teachers in relation to selection of works for varied student needs.
Students will develop an enhanced awareness of the development of keyboard instruments, performance practice, and elements of keyboard pedagogy.
Enrolment will be open to all students, but the subject will be chiefly of benefit to keyboard players.

- demonstrate a capacity to think critically and independently;
- demonstrate respect for the views of others while engaging in informed debate;
