All of the arrangements in this book are fairly simple and have been arranged in a way that a fair degree of harmony can be heard even with just two notes, making them satisfying and fun to play.

In this short book you will find condensed and simplified versions of the Hanon piano finger exercises 1 - 30 as well as the major, harmonic minor and melodic minor scales in every key (two octaves).What is Hanon?The 'Hanon Virtuoso Pianist' is a collection of piano finger exercises designed to give equal strength, agility and flexibility to all five fingers of both hands. Written by Charles-Louis Hanon in the 1800s, these exercises without doubt have become one of the most widely used techniques by today's pianists. In my opinion these are the best finger exercises available.One really great thing about these exercises is that they are applicable to both absolute beginners and advanced players alike, particularly as the reading ability required is minimal. Whatever your ability, these exercises will help improve your technique and finger strength.So why do I need this book?The whole point is to make it easy to read and to reduce page turns - less is more! In the full version the first 30 exercises take up fifty pages whereas here there are three exercises per page for the first 20, then two per page for the next 10, reducing the fifty pages to just twelve. I initially produced this for my own use only but figured that others may like to take advantage of what I've done.Does this mean that the print is just smaller?No, not at all. If you are familiar with these exercises you will know that they are repeated patterns which ascend and descend for two octaves diatonically.To condense and simplify them and consequently eliminate an enormous amount of page turns I have shown: the all-important fingering on the first pattern (as per the original); then the repeated second pattern; then 'changeover' patterns between ascending and descending - which are sometimes slightly different; then finally the last pattern of each exercise which again is often very slightly different.All of the exercises can be heard if required in the pdf version (a free link is given at the end of the book).

The object of this book has been to produce a collection of original pieces (composed by the author) which are both easy and satisfying to play. I hope I've succeeded. I certainly enjoy playing all of them. The 16 original compositions in this collection range from moderately easy to intermediate, but certainly not difficult. Although I have indicated this in the overview they are not featured in any particular order of how difficult they are. In relation to the Associated Board grades, I would rate these pieces at between grades 1 to 5. All except one have been written with a 'chord line' so that they can alternatively be played easily using an electronic keyboard with auto accompaniment. Additionally, many of the pieces can be played on a four or five octave keyboard. Listen Before you Buy. All of the pieces can be heard in the link in the free preview of this book, please listen to these before purchasing - if you don't like them you'll not have to bother buying it!But I think you'll like them!

"e;This is a great book for beginner's, and also useful for more advanced players who want to increase their theory knowledge and improve their playing approach to the keyboard. It starts by giving the best set of fingering exercises and playing approach to the piano/keyboard that I have seen (and I've checked out many other books). It then fills you in on music notation, theory, chord construction and fingering, chord sequences and scale and arpeggio sequences, all done in both standard notation and keyboard fingering display. It includes a complete dictionary of scales and chords in standard notation and keyboard fingering view. Also included are 10 song lessons in standard notation, each with performance notes. The author, Martin Woodward, even includes a free download of a PDF version, which allows you to both print it and enlarge the diagrams for easier viewing while playing. The PDF accessibility is a great feature and should be offered by all ePub books. Highly Recommended"e; - Bob S Amazon CA

You'll love this 'charming' little book which is packed full of hidden gems and contains a seriously important message. It's been described as being like Alice in Wonderland with Zen sutras and is both thought provoking and entertaining at the same time. Don't be misled by the fact that the characters are clowns, monkeys and bears etc., this is simply to make it more fun to read - but the underlying message which is present even in the idiotic parts is certainly no joke. Throughout much of the story there are several quotations from "A Course in Miracles". If this story does nothing more than encourage you to read the above, then its purpose will have been achieved. But you may also want to look further into the "Conscious Connected Breathing" (Rebirthing) technique which Bonjo the Clown is taught herein - you'd be wise to do so. This can be mastered quickly and easily with life changing results not in 5 or 10 years, but NOW!
