    About this ebook

    If you want to learn the exact theory and techniques you need to play the piano without boring or complicated lessons then keep on reading.

     

    Traditionally, piano lessons can be very boring and require a fixed time. Then many books are either too complex or boring. This often leaves people frustrated and feeling like giving up. 

     

    Instead of typical text-heavy books, this book explains the essentials in an easy to understand way. Plus it combines them with images to enhance the reader's understanding.

    Plus you will be saving money on private lessons and time on big, boring books. 

     

    Now is the time to start on your music journey.

We may be told that YouTube videos are the best place to begin, or that books provide more detail. However, books are too text-heavy, with not enough visual images and diagrams.
