Alfred's Basic Piano Library Lesson Book, Bk 1A: Book & CD

This book is the PERFECT introduction to piano. If you are a teacher, a parent or wanting to learn yourself, this is a great book to introduce yourself to playing. I am a teacher and have enjoyed watching my littles succeed while using this book

An excellent book for beginner who want to learn to play the piano.

This Beginner piano book is the best place to start to teach your children to play the piano. I am not a teacher, but a piano player myself so I chose this book and the accompanying theory book because it is easy to understand and follow for an adult or child. My son is 11 years old and had no prior musical experience. I read through each lesson with him and used the theory book 1A noted for each lesson. Without much help, he was able to practice on our keyboard. Once he was proficient with one lesson, he would move on to the next. I appreciate the clear direction this book/series gives and highly recommend it to anyone wanting to start their journey of playing the piano.

My kid likes it

My 11 year old daughter just started piano lessons and this is the book she uses at school. It's simple and easy to follow

Nice size and seems geared toward kids. The book does not include the CD even though it advertises it does. I already knew that from other reviews, though. The first page shows you how to sit and how to number your fingers off, also shows where middle C is on your piano. The first large part of the book teaches the black keys. I had hoped it would teach the white first. I think this book will be a great addition, and really help our 9 year old learn. She will for sure need someone to help with some of the directions. Which, is what i would expect. But, just saying that, so you know what to expect when buying it. I plan to look into other series of teaching books as well. 4 stars for not coming with cd and correctly describing the books content.

This piano book was recommended from my child music school. I like this book as it explain in great detail all basic concepts about piano.

Our piano teacher told us to buy this book for my son to start piano lessons. I can see why she chose it. It is a great way to start and gives the child some recognizable songs very early on. It assumes you have zero piano experience and then starts you off on the black keys only. Then it moves you on to the white keys. The illustrations are also nice a cheery. It comes with a CD to play along with (to fill in the music as the child plays the simple melody). We haven't tried it yet so I'm not sure if my son could handle it. But it seems fun and he is excited to try it.

Il libro e arivato in tempo, non ha sofferto durante il trasporto. Ho comprato in torno a 13 fino adesso, ho anche la variante kindle e anche quella con CD. E il meglio che posso consigliare per i miei allievi, e per qualsiasi persona che vuole imparare a suonare il pianoforte partendo da 0. E in inglese,quindi magari questo potrebbe non essere il massimo per chi non parla questa lingua.

Perfect.

Very useful for my daughter's first piano lesson

👍🏻

This is a very decent piano method. I used it to teach my daughter and I think that she maintained interest a lot longer than she would have without this method. 5 stars!
