This unique audio-visual course provides all the guidance and information you need not only to learn how to play the piano or any other keyboard instrument, but also to master the mysteries of associated technology, such as MIDI programming and sequencing, digital sampling and computer hard-disk recording. The accompanying 74-minute CD provides an instant reference for each lesson as you develop your command of the piano keyboard, music theory and different musical styles, from classical, pop, jazz to programming modern dance styles like techno, garage and drum'n'bass.
Remarkable because it covers synthesizers as well as more traditional keyboards like pianos. Replete with the history of keyboard devices, musicians, music theory and so on it lives up to its moniker of being complete and is a welcome modern departure from the usual stuffiness of most piano books which read like they were written in 1800. Nice production values too.
