The Best Piano Books for Beginners
Hello!
Today I’ll walk you through some of my favorite method books and collections for someone just starting out – this is the mere tip of the iceberg, but it’s more than enough to get you going.
This post also ties into the video Finding Level-Appropriate Sheet Music, so be sure to watch that one for more information.
Thanks for watching!
