Piano Color Play: It's Sooo Easy

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.

Diane M. Davis is an anointed Musician, Songwriter, Poet and Music Teacher. When I was eight years old, my mother Creola McCoy taught me how to play the piano by ear. In 6th grade, I joined the band under the direction of Mr. Willie Cooper for seven years. In those years, I played the Flutophone, Trumpet, and French horn. When I finished high school, I started taking private piano lessons from Mrs. Barbara Wright. She said, "Diane, you are going to write a book". I smiled and believed in my heart. My grandchildren played the songs on the piano with little assistance. Jeremiah stated, "it's a great idea" and he worked on getting the book published. This method is educational and fun and you will enjoy playing the piano by colors. Diane McCoy Davis is married to Rev. Dr. John L.
