Review: About the book:

This book offers a way for adults to learn or relearn piano playing in a comfortable musically rewarding setting. This method is designed for individuals whose time is limited, therefore it makes efficient use of time. The development of music reading and playing abilities is gradual but thorough. The book uses a hand-position approach together with solfege, counting and singing, which create a symbiotic natural way of learning, similar to European schools. Playing through this book is easy and fun, and at the same time it develops all the necessary piano skills and techniques. CD accompaniment is available from www.pianoforadults.com.
