A Rulebook for Arguments
A Rulebook for Arguments

Review:I'm currently working on collecting some pieces of writing, hopefully to be placed in a book. I didn't begin this book with the idea that it would contribute to this project, but it ended up being an invaluable compliment to the book on writing I was reading at the same time.

These books are flooding the market. Read more

An Innovative Method Enhanced With Audio and Midi Files for Practice and Performance (Alfred's Group Piano for Adults)

Review:The perfect 1st year group piano textbook. It should be bound differently, as others have suggested, but a quick trip to staples fixes that. I love the balance between new concepts, sightreading, repertoire. Read more
