NOT YER
GRANDMA’S
PIANO LESSONS…

Herbie Hancock, 1976

Let’s Rock!

Piano Adventures and beyond! This is a great series to get your kids' fingers landing on the right notes right away… Fun, easy step-by-step songs, with a dollop of sight-reading on the side.

And kids love it when I'm on the drums playing with them. No more old-school hovering over your shoulders—this is "playing in a band" on Day 1!

Is That Jazz I smell?

And now for something completely different… (For teens to adults) Ever wondered why certain groups of notes and chords sound cooler than others? Instead of blindly sight-reading music to get the "right" answer, we'll learn by ear-training and, yes, Music Theory… Let's unlock the keyboard and learn how to:

● Jam over any chord progression

● Modes vs scales

● Inversions & chord extensions

● Right & left-hand rhythms

● Negative harmony (what?)

Terry Gilliam, 1970
