John Thompson's Modern Course for the Piano: Second Grade - Book/CD Pack (John Thompson's Modern Course for the Piano Series) Review
I wouldn't use anything else. I went to the music store, looked through about 14 different kinds of beginner music teaching programs. Then I bought about 4 of them, and this was the clear winner by a mile. We're into the 3rd book and I'm very pleased. Teaches enough without being overwhelming. Songs are accessible to all ages, and my 8 year old is as engaged with the books as I am. We're both learning to play piano, and I suppose that's good enough for me! Oh - be sure and get the CDs if you are learning from scratch. Knowing how it's supposed to sound makes a big difference.
PS - Very occasionally I have to call my mom and ask her what the book means by something, as it assumes some more knowlege than I have. Having a person who knows how to play, that you can consult every once in a while, will make the process a breeze.

Customer Reviews
never too late to learn all the little things - jannaugle -
It is never to late to pick up these books we used as a child and study and learn ALL the things that keeps us from enjoying the piano.
I was too busy being a tom boy when I could have been studying and learning all the things that are on the "ground level".SO I never have learned to "enjoy" my piano.
Going back and reviewing the first grade book I had and then I was ready for the second grade.
At 63 I am getting more enjoyment from my piano. The "John Thompsom" series are recognized and promoted by most music teachers. The basics are tought so they can be learned. ( with just a little willingness from the student)
