About this title

Synopsis

TV host Regis Philbin did it. NPR "RM" commentator Noah Adams did it. King Kong heroine Fay Wray did it. They all learned to play the piano as adults and opened up a world of music and personal fulfillment.

As more and more people today are seeking creative and satisfying ways to defuse the tensions of modern life, they are discovering that learning to play the piano is an ideal way to achieve their goal. In "When I Sit Down to Play", Joan St. James helps readers begin the journey toward making music.

Whether starting from scratch or resuming lessons after being away from music for a long time, readers will find out.
-- How to find a teacher who can train your fingers...and reach your heart
-- Where to get videos and books...if you want to learn on your own
-- Why practice makes perfect...and brings you the most relaxing time of your day
-- How to find an instrument to fit your needs and budget...should you go acoustic or digital?
-- What you need to do to write and arrange a song...it all may start in the shower
-- Where you can play for others...for fun or profit.
