Good for beginning adults,

This review is from: First Lessons in Bach - Book 1: Piano Solo (Paperback)
I played piano for my entire childhood and adolescence, but gave it up over ten years ago now. I am trying to teach myself how to play again, and this book has been a great re-introduction. The songs are simple and accessible, but not "mary had a little lamb" or "when the saints go marching in," which is what you'll find even in the alfred's adult beginner books...I'd even venture to say that some of the songs are quite beautiful. That said, the level is a bit more advanced than the Alfred's beginner books, so if it's your first go-round with piano, I might still start there.
I'm also trying to learn theory, and the simplicity of these songs makes them pretty easy to analyze - although the theory is not always that obvious for a beginner. I'd also recommend "Twenty Easy and Progressive Studies for the Piano", which is for a similar level, but the theory is more obvious, so you can go through and see why certain songs use certain notes. The songs aren't as nice, but they're still enjoyable to play and you don't feel like *such* an idiot when the downstairs neighbors hear you practicing. :)

wonderful collection of Bach studies,

This review is from: First Lessons in Bach - Book 1: Piano Solo (Paperback)
I went through this book with my teacher, its easy to read and the pieces are not very hard. If you've been through the Alfred's book 1, this should present a little challenge but manageable. It was fun to play I would recommend this book to someone who would like an introduction to
Bach.

This is a wonderful collection of easy pieces for a student, or just something you can pick up and home and play when you don't have a lot of time to practice.
