A piano course in 41 days
Play your first two-hand piece in 41 days.
Two books, one course. Fifteen to twenty minutes a day takes you from middle C to a real two-hand piece, and every exercise has a play-along video with the fingering shown on the keys.
The 41 days. Press a day.
Day 1Getting started: posture, hands and the keyboard
The books
Same 41 days. Pick your way in.
Both books teach exactly the same lessons and use the same practice room. One wraps them in a mystery you solve as you learn; the other is the course on its own.
The practice room
Every piece, three ways to practise it.
Watch the music move, see which finger plays each key, then slow it down or take one hand at a time.
Enter your book's access key
It's printed near the back of either book, under the answers. The "Watch and listen" box before Day 1 gives the page number. The same key works for both editions.
How to use the tracks
Listen, slow down, split, put together.
Play the piece at its natural speed first, so you know how it should sound. Songs have a soft chord accompaniment underneath.
About 70% speed, with one bar of clicks to count you in. Play along until it feels easy.
Two-hand pieces also come with right hand only and left hand only. The video plays one hand; you play the other.
Back to the slow version with both hands, then the full speed. Tick Repeat to loop a piece while you practise.
