What our customer's say!

"LET'S RETHINK THIS, FOLKS!", I have been teaching piano to children and adult beginners for five years now. At first I picked up this "classic" for my young beginners, ages 4-7.
Experience has taught me that this method is tedious, slow and CONFUSING. Too much information is thrown at the learners in the first three written pages. Too little actual playing is done from the get-go.

At an estate sale I found an old, out-of-print book that helped me to re-think ALL of the current piano methods. Beginners should be taught on a single treble staff until they master most of the notes. The non-dominant hand should be used equally or MORE than the dominant hand.

As the child learns to read notes, then music can be written on a double treble staff. Once melody and chords are mastered in both hands you can introduce the bass staff using the same technique.

After the pupil has mastered all of the above then the GRAND STAFF should be introduced.

Unfortunately, I have not found ANY published method using this method, so I handwrite music for my pupils. Maybe I'LL have to publish my own! LOL.







"Guests can pick up this book from your piano and start learning to play!", I keep this book and its sequel on my piano. Recently a friend came over with her 4 year-old daughter and started playing the lessons in the book. The two of them were able to make significant progress in about 30 minutes.

I am using the activities to jump start my toddler's music exposure. She enjoys the cover, and the notes are simple enough to engage her. She is learning timing and correspondence between tone and piano key, and I am using the time to fine-tune my own understanding of piano playing.

Overall, this book is a very good companion for your piano if you want to give guests and children the opportunity to play your piano and learn even with no previous lessons.

"Good for a young learner", I've been teaching my 5-year-old to play and she has progressed quickly using this book. I've been playing since I was 4 myself, but I haven't taught music to anyone. This has been easy to use and I like that it comes with accompaniments to each piece that I can play with her. It references a CD, but mine didn't come with one.

"Great for young beginners", I love it. Students learn the notes one-by-one in songs with duet accompaniment. There are work pages to do along with songs to play. The book is colorful and fun to look at. The progression moves along slowly so that each concept is learned; while at the same time students are playing songs each week and feeling much success. I like it a lot better then the old Thompson series.

"excellent", I used these books when I was a kid. I bought this one for my daughter to help her learn the piano. It is very well put together and kid friendly.
