Nancy FaberPlayTime Piano Popular - Level 1, arr. by Nancy and Randall Faber | Beginner Piano Songbook with Easy Popular Hits for Kids and Students | Fun Piano Repertoire Sheet Music for Young Musicians

This book is full of fun songs. Every song is a joy to play. My daughter was excited again and again as she turned the pages and played through this collection of favorites. Everyone will love and enjoy playing these or hearing them. It is a great book of practice songs to review what has been learned in level one. This book will keep the kids interested in playing piano and make practice desirable!In this book you will find 3/4 and 4/4 time with quarter notes, half notes, dotted half notes, and eighth notes. There are some sharps and flats in some of the songs that make a wonderful introduction to accidentals in a way that is not frustrating. There are repeat signs, ties, staccato notes, and slurs, among several other dynamic marks used in these beginner songs. Some songs are in middle C position or C position, but most are a second or third off of these popular beginner hand positions. The various finger combinations really help develop the beginner's abilities and gets them out of staying in one position.

Very good for learning for both kids and grown ups

Who doesn't want an easy version of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" and "Puff the Magic Dragon", amongst others. Very nice tunes, very easy, about Level 1. Eight year old has been in piano one year and has enjoyed playing and singing these tunes. Fun to hear lots of favorites that almost anyone can play.

Muy didáctico, la profesora de piano o lo recomendo

My students love the songs and they start putting both hands together in this “ fun” book; however, the phrase marks are ominous to them. Also, the duet parts should come in a compilation for teachers only.

This book has simple renditions of popular songs.I like it. I wish there were some different collections of popular songsby these guys to choose from.(on the same level)

My beginning piano students love this series of books.

Looking to get into your first, basic level piano songs? This is the perfect place to start. This book provides reinforcement of basic rhythm and note reading and includes: ABCs, Do Re Mi, The Flintstones, Music Box Dancer, Puff the Magic Dragon, Rocky Top, Star Wars, Take Me Out to the Ballgame, and This Land Is Your Land. Nice softcover book, with high quality prints.
