5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect tool to learn the piano, February 5, 2010

This review is from: Bastien Piano Basics Level 1 Piano WP201 (Paperback)
My wife and I are in our late twenties / early thirties. My wife is an accomplished musician (concert violist). My experience with any musical instrument has always been through the store window. We wanted to learn something new and I always wanted to play the piano. We purchased a very nice keyboard and then this book found it's way into our home. We both have used this book for approx 4 months and can honestly say we are both very pleased. The book has easy to follow steps. It truly takes you through the process one step at a time. The pages are clear and it folds nicely on a music stand.

The other pro to this book is that you don't need to buy anything more than what you want. There are a million different piano instruction books out there. The reason this one tips the scales is that Bastien piano books come in a range of types. They offer piano books on Technic, Theory, Performance, and Sight Reading. All of which are offered at the various levels (Primer - Lvl 4). Bastien Piano Basics Set (Piano, Theory, Performance, Technic, Level 1, 4 Book Set)

My wife already knows a lot about music theory. Again, my previous knowledge was that music had theory to it. I'm interested in the theory and technic end of things. My wife is more interested in the performance side of the piano. Again, this series of books provides the information side by side with the other books. This way you can follow along across the various types of lessons.

While you don't need any of the other books to play the piano, they are available. This is a very big bonus and the reason we choose to stay with Bastien Piano Books.

Overall, we couldn't be happier with them and plan on one day having our children use the books.
