The Time Thief: A time travelling piano adventure

By Susan Leigh

From the author of the popular piano book, 'Who Stole My Pizza?', is a fun time travelling adventure mystery for piano! Learn the tunes, solve the puzzles and crack the case in this 'guess who' style detective mystery. Can you stop 'The Time Thief' and work out their identity before they change history forever?! There are eight original piano tunes to learn including 'The Fifth Dimension', 'Pharaoh's Groove', and 'The Time Machine' with optional teacher duets. This fun mystery complements any method book and uses notes in different five finger positions around the piano. Each piece has some simple moving into different positions, the addition of sharps and flats, as well as hands together playing. It is perfect for beginner students who have been learning for a while and is equivalent to level 2A to early 2B of Faber's Piano Adventures. Search for hidden clues in the music theory puzzles. Follow the time machine and find your way through the 'Metronome Maze' in Beethoven's study, search for the 'Pharaoh's Clue' in Ancient Egypt, and untangle the wires in Tchaikovsky's 'Music Box'. Includes mazes, match ups, colouring puzzles, and much more. The puzzles cover music theory students might encounter at this level, such as time signatures of 2, 3 and 4 beats in a bar, simple note/rest values, numbered intervals, and whole/half steps (or tones and semitones). Questions vary from adding missing time signatures, musical maths, matching signs to meanings and more. This adventure also uses colourful images to tell the story. Each chapter reveals hints, clues and evidence to rule out one or more suspects and find the thief. The only way to catch 'The Time Thief' is with music theory knowledge!
