Knack Piano for Everyone is a self-instruction book for beginners to intermediates, fully illustrated with full-color photographs and musical notation. The book will teach readers everything a beginner should know about the instrument itself—the parts, different kinds of pianos, care for pianos—and then provide the basics of reading piano music and playing. Download play-along audio tracks at knackbooks.com/piano.
The book will include:
* An explanation of how the piano works.
* An exploration of the instrument, sitting correctly, playing all over the keyboard on
the black keys.
* Finding familiar tunes on the piano.
* Music notation, where it comes from, directions (up and down) on the keyboard and
on the music page.
Lessons will be geared toward achievable results for the reader without any prior knowledge of music, but also contain sidebars on various styles and techniques for the more advanced reader. By the end of the book, the reader will be able to play some basic songs, including some that will be provided in the Appendix.
