Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course -- Play Piano Now!, Bk 1: Lesson * Theory * Sight Reading * Technic (an Easy Beginning Method for Busy Adults), CombPaperback, 1 August 2000

Play Piano Now! is for busy adults whose practice time is limited, and for adults without previous musical training. It is a slower-paced method that uses the same conceptual core of our original Adult Piano Course, but with several very important added features: more gradual introduction of music fundamentals, more pages of reinforcement and a greater emphasis on sight-reading exercises, one of the most important skills needed to ensure long-term enjoyment of the piano. Includes specially marked written exercises that can be completed away from the keyboard. The comb binding creates a lay-flat book that is perfect for study and performance.
