Piano Adventures - Sightreading Book - Level 1 Paperback – January 1, 2012

I teach my beginner children out of the primer & level 1 books. They are very logical & linear, helping the learner to have a very well-rounded understanding of music theory & technique with a good balance of practice & application for enjoyment & growth.

[Reviewing Level 1 Sightreading Book Faber Piano Adventures (Paperback)] As a piano teacher, I find this an excellent resource for students who need a little extra work on Level 1 reading. Through repetition and gradual challenging, the student learns to recognize notes and patterns intuitively. My students all have gained confidence and skill.Note: it should not be used as a replacement for the Lesson, Theory, Performance, Technique or other repertoire books. I have only used it during lessons - assigning it may be tricky because the pieces aren't "fun" - they are very helpful, though, especially when I offer coaching and reminders to keep the student focused.

LOVE this book!!! I have been taking piano lessons for YEARS but still could not sight read. This book is helping be tremendoulsly. I have already ordered level 2 and I am still working on level one!

Readable

Reputable training book at a great price!

Great addition to the other Piano Adventure books. My children have made leaps and bounds of progress since starting this series. One daughter struggled reading music, and this book has already made a difference after only a few weeks.

My little one has been using the Piano Adventures - Sightreading Book - Level 1 for piano lessons, as recommended by the piano teacher. The book itself serves its purpose well, aiding in sightreading skills development.While it arrived on time, I do wish the packaging had been better, as the book arrived slightly bent. Nevertheless, it hasn't affected its usability.

We use what my daughter's piano teacher recommends as part of her weekly lesson. The binding is weak though so you may have to tell younger students to be gentle with it. Nothing wrong with the book..
