After Church services, adults and children would always come to me and ask how to play the piano. Therefore, I decided to formulate a method of how to play the piano that does not require music theory. The method I created had to be as simple as possible in order to get the student playing the piano immediately. Many people are familiar with these basic colors. They are red, yellow, brown, orange, green, purple, white and black. In this book, we will explore many popular tunes with colors and symbols. You can play these tunes on any standard piano keyboard with the color piano chart. This method for playing the piano will spark interest in learning at any age. While doing this, we introduce the pupil to some educational fundamentals. This book is full of everyday pictures and colors. Once interest is accomplished then you can move to the next level in your piano study. This method is educational and fun and you will enjoy playing the piano by colors.

You don't have to wait until your child begins school to start learning the piano – preschoolers can learn too! Jingle bells, Itsy Bitsy Spider and Mary had a little lamb, are just some of the tunes your preschooler will learn to play using correct fingering for both hands, following a color/number system. The method is so simple, that piano teachers who have avoided teaching preschoolers in the past, no longer have to. With brightly colored notes, fun illustrations and lively accompaniment tracks, teachers love Piano In Color just as much as preschoolers do.Even parents with no musical knowledge will find that the Piano In Color books provide the information you need to introduce your preschooler to the piano. And some parents have even been known to start learning Piano In Color for themselves!

(Faber Piano Adventures ). Written for ages 5 and 6, My First Piano Adventure captures the child's playful spirit. Fun-filled songs, rhythm games and technique activities develop beginning keyboard skills. Three distinguishing features of the Lesson Book A make it unique and effective for the young 5-6 year old beginner. 1. A strong focus on technique embedded in the book through playful technique games, chants, and carefully-composed pieces that gently lead the child into pianistic motions. 2. An outstanding CD for the young student to listen, sing, tap, and play along with at the piano. The orchestrated songs on the CD feature children singing the lyrics, which has great appeal to the 5-6 year old beginner. The CD becomes a ready-made practice partner that guides the student and parent for all the pieces and activities in the books. 3. The fanciful art features five multi-cultural children who are also learning to play. These friends at the piano introduce basic rhythms, white key names, and a variety of white and black-key songs that span classical, folk, and blues. Young students will listen, sing, create, and play more musically with Nancy and Randall Faber s My First Piano Adventure, Lesson Book A. The Lesson Book introduces directional pre-reading, elementary music theory and technique with engaging songs, games, and creative discovery at the keyboard. Young students will enjoy the multi-cultural "friends at the piano" who introduce white-key names, basic rhythms, and a variety of songs which span classical, folk, and blues. Ear-training and eye-training are also part of the curriculum. The Fabers' instructional theory "ACE" - Analysis, Creativity, and Expression, guides the pedagogy of My First Piano Adventure. Analysis leads to understanding, creativity leads to self-discovery, and expression develops personal artistry. The CD for this book offers a unique listening experience with outstanding orchestrations and vocals. The recordings demonstrate a key principle of the course: when children listen, sing, tap, and move to their piano music, they play more musically. View Helpful Introductory Videos Here
