5.0 out of 5 stars
Good, basic piano lessons,
This review is from: John W. Schaum Piano Course: C - The Purple Book (Leading to Mastery of the Instrument) (Paperback)
I learned from these books, along with the Thompson series. I have been teaching piano now for nearly 30 yrs. and have tried many other series, always coming back to the Schaum books. I find them to teach everything needed, having complete sets of workbooks as well as the lesson books and technic books. They move at the correct rate with songs my pupils enjoy overall. Other series I have tried or pupils have come with have been more frustrating- trying to move too fast for the students to learn well. The old adage "if it ain't broke don't fix it" works here. These worked years ago and they still do. Sometimes "new" isn't necessarily better.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A great series all around.,

This review is from: John W. Schaum Piano Course: C - The Purple Book (Leading to Mastery of the Instrument) (Paperback)
I learned on these books waaaay back in the early 1960s. They're still a great approach to learning. And now that I teach, I use the whole series - in addition to outside pieces as part of the transition away from them - to expose students to the wealth of music Classical composers gave us, many of which have no contemporary equivalents.
