Piano Adventures 4: Caspian Sea and Balance

This lesson plan includes activities and tips for playing "Caspian Sea" in Piano Adventures 4 TECHNIQUE Book. 

Listen to the melody sing over the soft left-hand patterns in Caspian Sea.  

Use a paintbrush stroke for the left hand 1-5-10 patterns to avoid tension and release the left-hand eighth notes after the first beat of most measures instead of trying to hold out all 3 notes.
