Michael Aaron Adult Piano Course

The Michael Aaron Adult Piano Course offers an adult approach to piano study with a mature selection of pieces that the adult student can play immediately.  Folk songs, arrangements of classical themes, and original solos by Michael Aaron are offered in abundance. Book One starts with a brief introduction to reading from the staff and the student is launched into reading pieces from the grand staff immediately, hands separately at first and then with hands sharing a one-note melody in middle C position. By the end of Book One, the student is playing intermediate-level pieces and has been exposed to C and G Major scales and positions; D, F, Bb, Eb Major; triads and inversions; and dominant-seventh chords. Book Two has the student progressing at the intermediate level and introduces major, minor, augmented and diminished triads; major and minor intervals; the chromatic scale; cadence chords; the minor scale; and arpeggios.
