8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. just right for adult learningBy Jeanne VrolykGreat for adult learning. I practice 40 to 60 minutes 5 days a week and can already play some of my favorite songs reasonably well. Most of the books songs are more for practice and learning so I use another songbook I have. There is an adequate amount of music theory but it is basic....so in a couple of months I will find a piano teacher. Still. for those who just want to play the piano soon. this is a good book to do just that. I am 69 years old and have always wanted to play the piano. It is wonderful!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great BuyBy EeIkee 1920Excellent buy! Received item quickly.
