by Ashkan Mashhour, Gail Gebhart

Play what you see, see what you play, play it like it is. VISUAL PIANO. For other books in the series, excerpts, or questions, - pelemeleworks.com - VISUAL PIANO connects the dots between the music staff and the piano keyboard, so you don’t have to. In fact, it does away with the music staff completely! The notes to play are presented right at your fingertips on keyboard diagrams . They come in different pieces of left and right hand fingerings, note names, intervals, and key fills. Reading music is not required. The book can function as a standalone reference or as a complement to any piano method. The Pentatonic & Symmetrical Scales book presents the Pentatonic, the Blues, and a number of Symmetrical scales in all twelve keys. Each scale is shown in one- and two-octave forms. A generic four-octave pattern rounds out the diagrams. Get started with scales right away, or hone in on a specific aspect of scales like intervals or fingerings, all that in plain sight.
