I love this one in comparison to Alfred. So nice font, lovely selection of music, nice progression. Easy to use and learn.

I’m an intermediate pianist and people sometimes ask, “how are you able to understand this music?” I bought this book as a guide to help teach some curious listeners the basics of piano theory.
I chose the accelerated lesson book instead of the adult all-in-one because it is more organized and slower paced. It is slow enough to help someone retain all the information accumulated but fast paced enough to keep a student engaged. This book is also very classical focused. I also like that it is designed for older beginners or adults instead of young beginners.
I think this would be an exceptional book for an older beginner pianist with a tutor/teacher. I don’t know how well it would do as a self-learning piano book.

It’s a good book… I kinda was looking for more of a step by step lesson plan that would have me with some solid basics by the time I got to the end… instead this isn’t as rigid as that… it’s like “here’s how you read notes on a staff, and here’s a simple song to play” and yes, that’s definitely a good lesson, but there’s no way I could be a master of that lesson after completing the lesson, so just have to repeat and repeat over and over the same really simple boring lesson before feeling really comfortable with moving forward… and really, I’m more interested in being able to play a song from memory that reading sheet music as I play… so Synthesia is really a better tool for me that I have more fun with and gets me the results I want. While this is a great starting foundation, the foundation is based on the old style sheet music which is kinda like teaching someone to read an analogue clock… sure it’s nice and all, but it’s not necessary, and at the end of the day I have no progress towards playing in front of other people, just progress towards a good traditional solid foundation.

Este es un muy buen método para trabajar con adolescentes y preadolescentes que inician desde cero el estudio del piano. Lo empleo con mis alumnos y da buenos resultados. Sin embargo, no es un remedio mágico: es muy exigente en la lectura de notas y ritmos, al tener un enfoque metodológico, la dificultad aumenta gradualmente. Las piezas requieren de cierta musicalidad tanto del maestro como del alumno, y en muchas ocasiones es necesario tocarlas con bastante velocidad para encontrarles sentido. Una de sus mayores virtudes es que no utiliza siempre una misma posición sobre las teclas. Pudiendo estar en Do mayor, Sol mayor, La menor, o ser modales. La principal desventaja que encuentro a este libro es que es que al haber sido diseñado para alumnos anglosajones, utiliza piezas tradicionales del repertorio estadounidense (Oh Susannah, Amazing Grace, La marcha de los santos, Camptown Races), que en nuestra realidad latinoamericana tienen poco o ningún sentido porque los alumnos pocas veces las reconocen, por lo que hay que darles contexto. Lo recomiendo bastante.
