4.0 out of 5 stars Just the begining, May 17, 2005

By	TW (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews

This is just the first one-third of their Piano and Keyboard Method package. It covers the basics of rhythm and reading music. If you're serious about really learning in this manner, you should probably just get the Piano and Keyboard Method version right away. If you're just dabbling and need some help learning to keep time and read music, this is a great place to start (you'll need a MIDI keyboard to get the most out of it). But if you already have a good sence of rhythm and know the basics of reading music, this wont offer too much.
