Book 3 deals primarily with extended positions of the right hand, the introduction of the A minor and D minor keys and the development of technical skills such as the crossing under of the thumb. Triplets are introduced as well as 'fingered' A minor and D minor chords and much more.

Book 2 continues with 6ths, 7ths and octaves; eighth notes, dotted quarter notes and syncopated notes; sharps, flats and naturals; the keys of C, G and F Major; construction of the major scale, new 'fingered' chords and additional 'single-fingered' chords.

This method uses the great capabilities of the electronic keyboard to teach keyboard musicianship.
