  1. ReneeRenee –

    Good book but came soggy??

    The book is good but for some reason it came soggy and oily on every page?? When you touch it it feels oily and it hasn’t dried out. This isn’t a big deal though, I like all the songs.

    Nice piano book

    I’ve been using the same kind of piano books and I am always pleased with the quality and ease of use.

    Great Teaching Tool

    I have used these books beginning at Level 1 for several of my daughter. We have enjoyed the style and ease and they have learned very well from them. Very recommended.

  6. Simple Mom –

    I would have like to see a bit more on syncopation

    Level 3A first half focuses mainly on rhythm knowledge and time signature of 3/8, 6/8, triplet. The second half introduces chromatic scale, D major scale, and 1 ocatave arpeggios and further explores ledger lines. This is the first level where the songs have a some meat to them and challenging spots for the average kid. I would have like to see a bit more on syncopation. But perhaps it will be further explored in higher levels.There is no CD for this level. But you can go to the piano adventure website for MIDI or REAL player for the songs.

    Good foundation for students.

    The Faber Piano Adventures are a good foundation for students, helping reinforce the basics in technique, performance, theory and musicianship. The lesson book works in conjunction with theory, technique and performance books, but be aware that you are buying the same editions. I’ve had it happen before when I have bought the 2nd edition of the lesson book, but not theory and therefore had the corresponding pages not match up. Music is printed in relatively big print which is great for student and teacher! Not always the most challenging method book if you have fast learners with talent and ability.

    NOT THE SECOND EDITION

    The description says second edition. The bag it came in said second edition, but it is NOT the second edition. It is copyright 1998, not 2013, with totally different songs. I got the sightreading book to go along with this, but the songs are not the same so it is not very useful. It is not worth returning, but I am very disappointed that they are still selling old books on Amazon without saying so. They should clearly state that this is not the second edition.

    Piano Adventures Series is Great!

    I have been teaching piano at the beginner and intermediate levels for ten years. I find the Faber & Faber Piano Adventures Lesson Book to be thorough with regard to well-rounded piano instruction. Their newer version duplicates some of the supplemental materials that I provide (i.e., pentachords, scales, I-IV-V chords), which my students learn far in advance of the book’s timeline. By the time most of my students complete level 2A, they have memorized all the major pentachords and scales and are working on the minor keys. Still, for under $8 per lesson book, this series is affordable and packed with songs that my students enjoy learning. I appreciate the massive efforts of Faber & Faber to make piano study fun and steadily progressive.

    Trust Faber for Fun Music!

    As a piano teacher, I’ve used lots of different piano books, and Piano Adventures are the best. There is a good mix of classical and fun pieces in level 3A.

    My daughter switched to Faber’s Level 1 books after starting …

    My daughter switched to Faber’s Level 1 books after starting out in Alfred’s. She has progressed quickly in the Faber books and they seem to be more of a “click” to her. She’s now entering 3A and is enjoying the new books immensely. We really appreciate the variety available at each level, including Popular Repertoire and Christmas songs. The Faber Theory is also more interesting than Notespeller, which is what she used instead for a couple years.

    Really Enjoying it even as an Adult.

    As an adult there are a lot of options for lesson books. I’ve now been through the first two Levels of Piano Adventures “Older Beginners”, after the 2nd Level of that series you are supposed to move onto 3A of this series. Which means that Older Beginners encompasses Primer, Level 1A, 1B, 2A and 2B. I was worried at first because the series is intended for a younger audience, but after trying a few other “Adult” Series this one has been the most comprehensive and understandable.I am working with a teacher as well, and of course that will change how things look.

    This is the recommended book that our piano teacher had us buy. The progression in the difficulty and learning of songs is good.

    Very good piano textbook

    My daughter has been using Faber series for a year. Very well organized and all the songs in the books are beautiful and fit to the right level. My daughter improved fast by using this textbook.

  31. Tami –

    I would recommend this book because it is fun!

    You get a nice selection of pieces in this series: some folk tunes, patriotic, classical. They are presented in an easy to learn format that is appealing to many ages. It uses a multi-key approach. I would recommend using Technic, Theory, books with this for lessons. The performance books are great also!I have used many piano books to teach my students over the years and this is one of my favorites. I very rarely have a student that isn’t interested in practicing the pieces in these books.

    Very nice!

    These Piano Adventure books are wonderful! They are bright and colorful and go in perfect steps for a young learner. My daughter has used many of these and is doing great with piano lessons! An added bonus is there is a certificate of completion in the back of each book so your child gets an “award certificate” when it is completed.

      JUST THE SNARE AND BASS DRUMS

      I know everyone says you should start here when learning to play drums. I’m not so sure. This book seems to have been written in 1987 for a kid in a marching band who has a music teacher working with him. I’m trying to learn my way around my new drum kit, but this book has nothing about coordination or technique with toms or cymbals. There seems to be almost no explanation at all of what’s going on – just a few pages of reference material then endless pages of sheet music to play the snare and bass drums with increasing complexity. I’m following the book, but without other resources like a real instructor and YouTube channels, this book won’t be much help. In fairness, it was written at a time well before people attempted to become self-taught at anything.

      A very good book for anyone taking drum lessons with a teacher.

      For the last 8 years my passion for music has grown so much that I have learned how to play (at least to some degree) numerous musical (Ukulele, Harmonica, Recorder, Flute, American drumming and hand drums, and many other percussion) instruments. Over the years I have taken many courses and purchased numerous books to improve my skill level.I just purchased this wonderful 80 page manual (Alfred’s drum Method book 1 by Sandy Feldstein and Dave Black) which is organized into 39 drum playing lessons. The introductory part of this volume covers the snare drum, getting ready to play, the bass drum, the cymbals and elements of music. The lessons cover a wide range of drum practice lessons but without a drum playing teacher it will not be easy to follow some of the material. They do have a Drum DVD available for purchase which no doubt will help in learning the lessons in the manual.If you are taking drum lessons this book will enhance your drum learning sessions.Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Chair/Seated tai Chi, Qigong and Yoga stretching for seniors and the physically challenged).

      Good practice drum and music for beginners

      My son can play most of the music he started drumming last year. He likes it and took it home to practice where his mom has a snare and high hat in the garage so I’d say he enjoys it more easily than a big set at times.

    16. MIKE OHEARN –

      I use this book often

      This is a great book for beginners to intermediate drummers. I use it with my students often. It does jump a litlle bit without explaing some of the notation changes, but overall, it’s still a great resource

    17. Seth Z –

      Get it, and don’t call me Sandy.

      Alfred is my best friend. That’s truth. I only wish I could Alfred in person, but I have recently discovered that Alfred is no longer with us. He apparently was a man named Sandy. I suppose I would forgo using my real name when writing a book about drum methods. “Sandy’s Drum Method”…. nope, it just doesn’t have the right sound (get it? .. right sound?)Anyway, the book is great for those wanting to learn the basics of reading snare drum sheet music. It won’t make you a master of the drum, but it is a step in the right direction. If you have a yearning to learn drumming, or just want to know why some music notes look so very weird, this book will help you in either case.

      Great beginner’s book

      A drumming teacher asked that we purchase this book. We have been using it for about 5 months.Like other Alfred books, the quality of the book is excellent. Staffs and notes are easy to read. The paper is thick and the book stays open well on a stand. We have packed it in suitcase and brought it with us on vacation to practice, and it holds up well.The lessons progress on a logical pace and is just right for the beginner. Sometimes our kids get frustrated easily. With this book, they are making progress and learning about rhythm very easily (there’s still griping about practice, trust me); it makes learning more fun. We practice one page daily and it takes about 20 minutes to do it a few times. Would definitely recommend it.

      One of the best of over 50 available snare drum books

      I’ve examined over 50 books on snare drum instruction and this is one of the top two. (Drum Method by William Schinstine & Fred Hoey is the other.) Good modern quality and sequence of material. 39 lessons and 23 solos. 2-line combination studies for each lesson (good for duets). Counts and sticking indicated in light gray. Nice illustrations for each new rudiment. Roll is introduced in Lesson 17, 5-stroke in Lesson 18, 9-stroke in Lesson 19, 13- and 17-stroke in Lesson 20, flam Lesson 27, drag in Lesson 34, ruff in Lesson 35. Minor nitpick is that you need to skip around to get rudiments in a better order. Also, it’s missing the single stroke rolls and paradiddles! Brief bass drum and cymbal technique. Great value for the money.

      My son has used similar drum books in the past. This is the book his teacher requested. My son says that it is very basic, so if you are looking for basic then this is a good book. However my son has been playing for a few years now and is bored with this book, so I don’t recommend it for experienced drummers.

      I’ve given drum lessons with various lesson books. This one is highly recommended. It has a lesson for each element so that beginners understand the element well before moving on. It doesn’t go too fast for beginners. I’m using this now for two new beginner drummers and it is ideal for them.

      Good resource for homeschool music class

      Easy to understand for the most part. Using this book as part of homeschool curriculum to teach my 9yr old son. With a little guidance from my college son who used this same book in elementary public school, my 9yr old is learning well! Alfred’s books are a great music resource for beginners on up!

      Small Notation

      Text and notation is way too small. Some explinations of notation in the Combination Excercises is missing.

      Great starter book for snare drum lessons

      It’s a classic. I appreciate that the book is slow and methodical (great for elementary school kids), and that they emphasize the counting of the beats/subdivisions. It is also written by percussionists (vs. other methods like “Essential Elements” — terrible organization for percussionists, although it’s good for the winds and brass) which I appreciate.

      Super duper standard

      I’ve used this book for years with many students. Now my own daughter is using it, too. Progression is a little fast ….wish there were more exercises before the concept moves on but still, a great text!

      Great way to start

      I bought this book to teach my 7 year old Grandson how to play. You can’t go wrong with Alfred’s methods for any instrument.The basics are explained easily and each lesson builds upon the other.You won’t regret playing the drums and learning how to play correctly.

      Love it. Great pacing and variety to keep students from getting bored. The solos mixed in with the repetition studies break up the monotony and keep the students thinking.

      Great book to learn from

      I got this for my son, it was recommended by his drum teacher. He loves this book he’s learning so much from it. Great beginners book! I would highly recommend this book.

        Great for beginners!

        Bought this for my 11 year old who plays electric guitar. At first I didn’t love that it wasn’t full songs but it’s great for his short attention span. It’s handy for short practice sessions and easy to learn from. Glad I bought it!

        Use for repetoire, don’t use for learning

        I’m a guitar teacher, so my review is biased towards music education. My view of this book is that it has good content – if you can already play some guitar and want to quickly expand your repertoire, this book fits the bill. It has a lot of great and recognizable riffs, and you’re likely to find something in here that you don’t already know and can learn quickly to add to your personal catalog. (Note, many of the “songs” are really just a couple of bars with the main riff, but it’s a good starting point to find songs you’d like to learn.) I use many of these riffs in my lessons. But, and this is a big but, the book leaves a lot to be desired as a “method”. It shows you how to play some things, but addresses virtually none of the why. This stems from – you guessed it – not teaching music, but teaching tabs instead. This leaves the depth of music in this book only surface deep – it’s like learning to read a book out loud, but not understanding what any of the words actually mean.So, I’m going to split the bill and give it 3 stars. If you are an intermediate or better guitar player, you will likely find some useful things in here and can use this book to teach yourself repertoire. But if you are a beginner, do yourself a favor and don’t start here – get yourself a book with an actual music method (I like Hal Leonard’s regular guitar method book) and a good teacher to go through it with. Learning to read music is an invaluable skill to have, and will lend itself to understanding what it is that you’re actually playing.

        this is good for the BEGINNER beginner

        This was good for me when I knew absolutely nothing about the guitar. Very short snippets to play and you can hear how it is supposed to sound w the tracks online but these snippets are so well known, you won’t need it

        Fun

        This book is a lot of fun to go through. I will admit however, it is not a part of my daily practice routine, but more a part of when I want to just get on the guitar and noodle. It has a lot of short riffs to it that are fairly simple, even for a beginner. For the price of the book, I definitely recommend it.

        Kindle Version has broken multimedia – But the content is good !

        Really good book BUT! Once I began reading it none of the audio clips would play in my Kindle apps. Not the Android, not the PC version.The audio clips worked fine when I was looking at the book sample before I purchased.Back to the content… Other than the audio clips not working for me… the rest of the content seems to be really good. Three Stars for the bad audio clips.

        Different from other HL guitar books!

        This book takes the beginner approach from their other books and turns it upside down. The “riffs” all start from the lowE string vs starting on the high E. The riffs are easy and mostly well known and fun for the student. The only problem is that they only learn the riffs and not the whole song. The images are all in “tab” orientation and look upside down in the book.

        Tab Method Warning!

        Get this. Better on computer or iPad as the music is embedded. If not the included CD has it all. Great way to learn and to learn short riffs.This should be a book anyone starting to play should get. The warning is you’ll wind up buying them all. :-)Fun way to learn.

        I am new to the guitar. The book walks you through it slowly. It’s a good way to start learning small parts of some popular songs you know.

        Recensione Hal Leonard Guitar Tab Method Book One

        The author takes us by the hand and guides us step by step through the fantastic world of music, in this case specifically centered on the instrument that, more or less, we all have, at least once, tried to play the guitar!Just an excellent job that the author did in preparing this manual. Inside, many tips, explanations and practical explanations on how to get started, well presented even for a neophyte like me. I was afraid in too difficult a reading and that it would discourage me, but the guide is gradual and helps to make progress starting from the basics.There are tips on how to choose the guitar, what it is made of, how to tune it, the posture to use while playing, scales, chords, etc … It also suggests some techniques for playing without a pick, to embellish the songs, to improvise, in short, a small bible to devour !!!!
