Reviews
This series was recommended to me by my piano teacher for one of my STUDENTS who is a teenager. I love that theory, technique, performance , and lesson materials are all in one book. Much simpler for students to keep up with and use than having four or five books and constantly flipping from one to the other. Also appreciate that these books develop the left hand for chording (block chords, arpeggios, etc) while still including linear accompaniment styles. And, it contains really good solo pieces.
