In 1801 the ten-year-old Carl Czerny impressed Ludwig van Beethoven in a performance of Beethoven's Pathétique Sonata. At the age of 15 he had launched a career as a piano teacher. Czerny was chosen by Beethoven not only to give the first performance of his First Piano Concerto, and the Vienna premiere of his Fifth Piano Concerto but also to teach his nephew Carl. It is impossible to understate Czerny's importance as a teacher and his many educational works for pianists at all stages are as important today as when they were first produced. The First Tutor is aimed at begginer pianists, and carefully builds the fundamentals of technique. This classic Edition Peters publication is used by teachers and students across the world. It is beautifully bound and printed on cream paper with weight, opacity and grain direction optimal for music publications.
