The adult edition of the best-selling Piano Adventures series, designed from the ground up for grown-up learners. This All-in-One book covers lessons, technique, and theory in 16 structured units that take you from zero experience to reading and playing music in both hands with chord accompaniment.
Why Start Here
The Fabers’ approach stands out for its emphasis on playing recognizable music early. From the first units, you encounter arrangements of Amazing Grace, Danny Boy, Greensleeves, and The Entertainer. This makes practice sessions feel rewarding rather than repetitive. The method also introduces chord-symbol reading prominently, which is especially valuable if your goal is to play pop, jazz, or worship music rather than strictly classical pieces.
What to Expect
A 184-page course with 16 units, each building carefully on the previous one. Online audio and video support is included with the book, giving you demonstrations of how each piece should sound. The pace is measured and thorough, making this a strong choice for learners who want to feel fully confident at each stage.
