The award-winning Piano Time is a hugely successful series for all budding pianists, taking young pupils from their very first lesson up to around Grade 3 standard. Piano Time Accompaniments contains piano parts to accompany a selection of 40 pieces from Piano Time 1 (Third Edition). The varied accompaniments are ideal for a teacher, parent, or more advanced student, creating a fun duet that both supports the learner and encourages the skill of ensemble playing.
