This book is a good quick read. You can finish the book in a couple hours. This book is for persons that have tried to learn piano, but have since given up. It's a refreshing take on piano instruction. This book would've gotten 5 stars had it not been for a couple of errors spotted in musical notation. Novice piano players should give it a try.
Simple and quick read for the absolute beginner. Will get you started on the most essential concepts and has three small pieces of music in standard notation and English commentary.
Explained very simply and complete. Thank you for putting this together. I only wish I could find a book to show me how to play piano music on a guitar.
