  • Fantastic
I’ve tried a few methods to learn piano. So far, this has been helping me significantly with my finger placement on the keyboard as well as slowly progressing me into learning sheet music. With no prior experience of any kind, this has helped me quite a bit. Still working my way through the book and trying to master each page before I move forward. Trying to get all that muscle memory. Once it moves to sheet music and it clicks a lightbulb goes off and it makes reading music so much better. Thoroughly enjoying this thank you ... show more

  • Good beginner book
I bought this for a student who loves to play by ear. Trying to encourage them to learn techniques along with music in order to expand their ability.

  • Finally Know What I’m Doing!
I got this book because my mom was going to give away her keyboard and I took it to my house even though I’ve had no formal lessons. I can read music and play some very basic songs, but with no sense of what I’m actually doing. This book starts at the very beginning and I’ve taken the time to read through every word and watch every video even if it’s something I already know. I’m a little more than halfway through and already feel way more knowledgeable and skilled. I never understood how pianists could play all those notes with just 10 fingers, and figured my hands were too small to ever do it, but I was wrong! There is an art to finger placement, and this book teaches and guides it. The pace of the book is great, it gradually gets more complex, and in an order that makes sense to me. One piece of advice I have for anyone who gets this book is PRACTICE! Sure, I can sloppily get through some of the songs with no metronome, but I won’t move on until I feel like I have perfected a piece, timing and all. I practice every day, and can feel the muscles in my hands learning. Often, I tell myself I’ll practice for 20 minutes, and the next thing I know and hour+ has passed. ... show more

  • Great book for adult learners
This book is great for Adults learning piano. What I like best is the author’s selection of music you learn to play. There is another book, Alfred’s Basic Adult Piano Course, that often gets lauded as the better teaching book. In many ways I agree, especially in learning to play by recognizing intervals. Ferrante’s book gives you the fingering throughout, where as Alfred’s teaches you without that and he teaches you more theory, which is better for learning in the long run. And if you don’t mind playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Merrily We Roll Along then go for that book. Ferrante’s book, on the other hand, gives you more inspirational and satisfying songs to play. Yes, they are harder to learn in the beginning, but worth it. Ideally, I recommend getting both books. I go back and forth between the two often. Especially when I get tired of playing kiddy songs. ... show more

  • It’s just okay…
I played piano when I was younger and wanted to get okback into it. This book has some good teaching points lacks teaching notes. I’d prefer a book that has notes with the letters then lets you try without the letters to help your music reading. This shows the letters throughout. I want my brain to learn by sight not with the notes. Also my husband is a great musician and says a few of the songs don’t sound right. I even noticed that one song has a note missing. Going to try a different beginners book. ... show more
