I am not writing to offer up a copy of Eugene Gay's Method for sale,
but just to comment on his book. It is interesting that Book 1 of
the Gay Method never ventures out of the key of C major (it is not,
BTW, a short book!!!). How do teachers our there feel about
balancing the pursuit of perfection with fewer notes against the need
to know all the notes and explore many key signatures early on????
