Reviews

In my college piano class I went through the first book and was pleased with the format and progression of the content. It WAS beneficial to be taking music theory at the same time so the explanations in the piano book were understandable. I'm not sure they would have been easily grasped otherwise. Student book 2 is a continuation of the same format, but naturally moves into more advanced exercises such as score reading. Overall, this program was fun and challenging for me as a new piano student, but it does need outside instruction from a piano teacher as opposed to being a "self-teaching" text (which is was not intended to be).
