Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A very basic no-frills does what it has to do reference book Comment: Upon buying this book, I wanted to learn chords and scales so that I could begin to play improv piano. Unfortunately, the book was very simple. Each page is dedicated to one key (ie. C, C7, D, ect.) And really doesn't give any sense of how the chords work together. Currently, I'm still using it to memorize the chords and maybe in the long run it'll pay off, but it felt a bit too separated for me. As music seems to always work best when certain chords compliment each other, showing you a connection in your head has always been most successful at teaching me. This doesn't do that for me. In conclusion, buy this book if you want a reference guide for finger placement for a chord you know. Don't buy it if you are interested in learning chords for the first time. Customer Rating: Summary: Great book from the Piano Guy Comment: If you want to quickly learn to play the piano, watch Scott Houston tv show on pbs "The Piano Guy". Well, this book is just as great teaching you the chords and techniques too. Customer Rating: Summary: C hord book Comment: It's a complete book of chords. I'll be using it forever and as long as I play piano I'll need it.

Customer Rating: Summary: instant sacale and chord guide for keyboards Comment: This is a great book for popular piano. It explains all different kinds of chords without a bunch of difficult theory. If you just want to learn to play from a fake book, get this book and get going! If you want to be a classical pianist, better hire a piano teacher. More Reviews
