Synopsis

Very simple approach to playing a keyboard using just 10 keys for your 10 fingers. All keyboards, including pianos, have just 12 black and white keys that keep repeating higher and higher like a stairway going from floor to floor. We take away the black keys and have just 7 white keys left. Their names are A,B,C,D,E,F,G. These white keys keep repeating higher and higher in that same order. We keep it simple. We use the favorite keys C,D,E,F,G. One group for the 5 left hand fingers and one group for the 5 right hand fingers. This whole book uses just these keys. You will be learning to read music, count timing and playing songs right away. 10 fingers for 10 keys. A great beginner book for discovering your inner musician.
