Chord Quest Powerful Piano Lessons Level 1: Easy Keyboard Patterns for Beginner Kids (Meridee Winters Chord Quest)

It’s a piano exercise book. A teach-yourself-keyboard book. A piano-teacher’s-secret-weapon-book. A chord theory book. A comic book quest. Somehow, Chord Quest is all of these things – but above all, it's a book that uses music’s most universal patterns to have everyone sounding great. (Whether they read music or not.)

The future of learning keyboard and piano is here – AND it's simple, creative and fun! This book is the first of the Chord Quest Powerful Piano Lessons Series, and is a re-imagined reboot of Meridee's All Star Piano Patterns Series. (Students of those books can transition seamlessly to this series, as the levels correspond.) Chord Quest is designed specifically for grade school kids who are new beginners to piano. In fact, it's the same great teaching style and material from Meridee's Chord Crash Course Series – but for kids.

Beginning piano students—and their teachers and parents—face a universal problem: there’s often a long wait between when you start learning an instrument and when you can actually play music that sounds (and feels) good. With her trailblazing Chord Quest series, Meridee uses the universal power of patterns to have you playing and creating great music from day one, without reading a note. Best of all – it all happens along a fun-filled comic book quest complete with games, jokes, villains and creative activities. Where else could you play Pachelbel's Canon AND rescue zombified piano students from Professor Perfecto?
