Zusatztext

This is an excellent two-volume curriculum that you can do alone or with a teacher. Logicvally organized, short lessons gently move from beginner to intermediate level, which is where most keyboard skills books start. The authors have kept the examples short, without omitting any steps. I highly recommend these new volumes for anyone seeking help in boosting their command of these keyboard basics.
