Faber Piano Adventures Primer Level Learning Library Pack - Lesson, Theory, Performance, and Technique & Artistry Books

There are a few methods that most piano teachers seem to use in teaching piano to children. Pretty much: Alfred's Piano Library, Faber's Piano Adventures, Bastian Piano Basic, and let's just throw in John Thompson's Modern Course. All offer music theory and technique with engaging material for kids to follow along. Actually, I learned piano before kindergarten and was taught differently. Now having my own kids extremely interested in piano and music, I wanted some consistent material that aligned with their interest, and Faber is working nicely with introducing a learning style that's appropriate to their skill level. I found Faber to be colorful, filled with illustrations and activities. The song variety covered a bit of everything. A lot more interesting than my classical teachings.Priced $33 at time of order and review, for the Primer set of 4. So $8.25 each, honestly.. Give it a try.Review of Faber Piano Adventures Primer Level Learning Library Pack - Lesson, Theory, Performance, and Technique & Artistry Books

My son's piano instructor asked us to get this set as he is just beginning piano lessons. The lessons are well written and fairly easy to follow along. Our instructor helped us understand how to move through them but over all they are great for the beginner level.

I highly recommend this set of books. I am learning to play piano pretty much on my own. I took one lesson just to get me started and have the option to go again on an as needed basis and other than that I am using these books. You can read the review I just posted for the primer level sight reading book by Faber for more information but I think these books are great. I purchased the primer level and level 1 which I will I have heard will take 8-12 months to get to level 1 but that is fine. I live a long way from piano lessons and these books once I had a starting point seem to be getting me along just great in the learning to play piano. I think it best to get the complete set along with the Christmas music and sight reading books. The Christmas book gives you something to boost your confidence as you can hear a song and recognize it and you are playing it, the sight reading is something you can read through at night and this 4 book set offers a base of additional information that I think builds a firmer learning foundation for playing the piano. I have no musical background whatsoever - all I knew was to dust the one I had and I love these books. I had one lesson and have since used only these books - I am 2 weeks into learning and I recognize quite a bit although I am trying to get my brain to make my fingers move a bit quicker but the connection of what fingers to move is not to fast yet! LOL Left hand really throws me but getting better.

As expected

This is the standard for most piano teachers I know, and it's very well suited for beginners, especially primary/elementary school age. The concepts are introduced slowly using common tunes, giving the students a good sense of accomplishment.

I wanted to teach my 6 year old son piano. We have already went through the Faber's My First Piano Adventures A, B, and C. I thought these Primer books had more detail and taught the concepts better. Please note that I am not a professional piano teacher and I just know some music (took some piano lessons when I was young). I wanted to find something to teach my son to see how he would do (before I commit to finding a piano teacher). I really like how the books teach proper posture, techniques, artistry, and different concepts. Very well rounded and complete. It was a slight hassle to have to flip through multiple books. But, well worth the effort. Fairly easy to follow. Going to buy the next level. Highly recommend this to others.

Brand new and was just as I expected. The piano Teacher was so glad they were easy for the kids to get.
