Description:

If you've always had a yen to tickle the ivories but never had the time for lessons, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Playing the Piano and Electronic Keyboards is for you. Geared toward--you guessed it--the absolute beginner, this book takes you by the hand and leads you through a tour of the piano and its history, the anatomy of keyboard instruments, and music theory. The most abstruse aspects of playing the piano--reading music and understanding the role each hand plays--are clearly and cogently explained, with enough practice pieces to get you playing a few simple tunes in no time.

Like all books in this series, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Playing the Piano and Electronic Keyboards is written in light-hearted prose that helps make a difficult subject less daunting while still giving you everything you need to know to get started on the road to keyboard proficiency. It may not make you the next Van Cliburn, but who knows? Maybe you can give John Tesh a run for his money.
