Excerpt from Burrowes Piano Primer, Containing the Rudiments of Music Adapted for Either Private Tuition or Teaching in Classes, Together With a Guide to Practice
The conciseness and clarity of burrowes' primer (it is, rather, a. Catechism), together with its convenient size and low price, have given it a large sphere of usefulness. Approximately a million copies have been sold, and the little book is in the most active use.
The present edition is based on the many previous editions; but while there are many changes, corrections, and additions in this new edition, the editor has been careful to preserve the original text and contents as far as possible. It is still Burrowes' Primer; it is still a Piano Primer.

Excerpt from Burrowes Piano Primer, Containing the Rudiments of Music Adapted for Either Private Tuition or Teaching in Classes, Together With a Guide to Practice
The rapid sale of this little work, and the flattering approbation which has been bestowed upon it by many of the most eminent professors, have given great satisfaction to the author. In presenting another edition to the musical world, he begs to repeat that it is not intended to interfere with the mode of instruction which any teacher has already adopted, but is to be used either in private tuition or teaching in classes, in addition to the regular lessons already in use.
The author thinks it necessary to repeat that he does not offer this book as containing anything new; yet he hopes it will be found useful in explaining the rudiments, and thereby enabling the teacher to devote more time to other important branches of music.
The following remarks, although certainly superfluous to instructors in general, he hopes will not be thought intrusive.
The principle object of every teacher should be to make his pupils thoroughly comprehend one question before they proceed to another; for this purpose each one should be provided with a music slate or blank music paper upon which, after explanation, the teacher should write an exercise drawn from the questions or the Appendix, leaving the blanks to be filled up by the pupils.
Every exercise should be repeated, and the form of it varied, until it can be done without a mistake, and until the pupil is able to give an example upon the instrument, or answer any question, whether proposed in the regular order or otherwise. This will be attended with a little trouble to the instructor in the first instance only, as the author recommends that the learners of the second chapter should be teachers of h.e first; and this should be done at a distant part of the room in which the instructor is giving his lessons at the piano, that he may, by way of keeping up the attention of the scholars, occasionally inspect their examples; and it is recommended that an examination of the whole school or class should take place at stated periods.
It may perhaps be necessary to say a few words in favor of teaching in classes.
