Complete Levels 2 & 3 for the Later Beginner (Alfred's Basic Piano Library)

Needed the next upgrade for our daughter's music lessons, and I didn't feel like trapcing around from store to store to get her books. Where else to look? Why the store, of course! It arrived, lickety-split, and she was happily playing for her teacher in no time. Highly recommend this not only as a great lesson plan, but a great way to order!

I bought this on the recommendation of my piano teacher for my six year old grandson who is just beginning to take piano lessons. The illustrations are attractive; the songs seem appropriate to maintain the interest of small children as they are learning the pieces.

this book is great, good for younger players, like, ages 6 to 10 or even a little older. I thought I was getting a lesson book, with lots of little lines of music to have students practice. NOT SO, this is a Theory book, and it's all in the description, my bad for not reading it more carefully. It's full of worksheet type exercises, for students to take home with them from their lessons.

The book is much like the others with an emphasis on scales and theory, which is why I like this series. This book for some reason is not in color. That isn't a big deal, but since the others are it seems a little bland with all black and white pictures. There is a little too much emphasis on minor and my child is getting sick of gloomy sounding songs, but hopefully that will change soon.

Our piano teacher uses this series of books to teach our kids. Currently I have three using various levels. They work well, and sometimes I can find them a little bit cheaper on the store and it saves me a trip to the music store.
