READ PIANO MUSIC IN 1 DAY: READING MUSIC & PLAYING PIANO
By Preston Hoffman
Two beginner-friendly music guides come together in one practical volume designed to introduce sheet-music reading and foundational piano skills. Preston Hoffman breaks unfamiliar musical language into approachable lessons, guiding readers from understanding notation to finding notes, chords, scales, and rhythms on the keyboard.
This 138-page collection is written for first-time players and self-taught musicians seeking a clear place to begin. Seven guided exercises in each section encourage readers to learn through small, manageable steps and continue developing their skills through regular practice.
