Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course

For Christmas one of the things I got was a learning-to-play-piano book that is intended for Adults. The difference between the kids' primer I was using and this is much greater than I would have thought. The kids' primer I had already nearly exhausted, although I had only scarcely begun to look at chords. This book, within the first few pages, already has me playing melodic and harmonic seconds, thirds, fourths, and fifths. I think the fourths and fifths are not perfect, since at this point I am still using almost exclusively the white keys, but nonetheless, it's still significant progress over the single CEG cord the other book taught me. And it's a much thicker book, ninety some pages. And it explains things better.

I'm really gonna get somewhere with this one.
