I’m delighted to announce the release of my new piano pedagogy book, The Ultimate Guide To Piano Chords, co-written with Ruth Alberici and Lona Kozik.
With this book we aim to revolutionise the way students learn music theory — it should be beautiful and fun! Students will play music theory at the piano. It is an experience, not a boring worksheet. It’s actually like an adventure! And students not only really enjoy it, but they gain a much deeper understanding of what they’re doing.
