I wrote this book because, as a piano teacher, I could not find just the right book to use to teach my students how to play piano by chord. I spent SO MUCH money on different methods, cds, books, etc., but still had to "work around" them to teach what I wanted. It took me 4 years, but it's finally completed and published through Lulu Press. Woo hoo! Here is a photo of a student who is now playing for his youth band at church because of what he has learned through Chord Piano Is Fun.The book moves quickly, and it's very easy to understand. I've taught several of people the information in this book who have taken piano lessons FOR YEARS and did not realize the reasons for some of the information they were taught to practice. One of my customers is an 83 year old lady who took piano lessons twice in her life, but never was able to play her favorite music. Now she can! She wrote one of the reviews of my book.
Piano teachers, use this book in addition to and along with your method books. I have found that in using this book with my students it gives them the foundation for learning even their classical music.
It does have some good stuff in it, if I might say so myself. I think my favorite things are the five ADDENDUMS at the end that provide a lot of great resources and ways to practice and learn.
Please check it out! Would love to know what you think!
