2.0 out of 5 stars Piano for Pleasure: A Basic Course for Adults, January 24, 2009
This review is from: Piano for Pleasure: A Basic Course for Adults (with CD-ROM) (Plastic Comb)
I used this text for both a beginning and intermediate piano course at my college. This book is by far the worst piano book I've ever used. Too many WORTHLESS exercises and tedious 'rhythm drills.' Most of the songs in the text are mediocre at best, while also incredibly boring to listen to. One such subpar song is the piece "One Four Seven." I think it was one of the author's original pieces, but its dreadful. I gave the book 2 stars only because of the massive amount of information packed into this one book. All-in-all I think you can do much better in a beginning piano book. A better book, for an adult learning to play piano, is Alfred's Adult All-In-One Piano course. It progresses at a decent pace. By the time your finished with volume 1, of Alfred's Adult Piano Course, you'll be able to play simple melodies and be able to harmonize them.

In case your wondering about my background, I'm a college music student pursuing a BM in Music Composition.
