Learning piano can be a fun and rewarding hobby, and with the right resources, you can teach yourself to play. While books alone can't replace a teacher or practice, they can be a great companion to learning ¹. Here are some top recommendations for piano books that can help you get started: - *_Alfred's Basic Piano Library_*: A classic and comprehensive series that covers the basics of piano playing, including theory, technique, and repertoire. - *_Mel Bay's Piano Method_*: A well-structured and easy-to-follow method that focuses on building a strong foundation in piano playing. - *_Hanon: The Virtuoso Pianist_*: A timeless classic that focuses on finger exercises and technique, helping you build strength, dexterity, and control. These books are highly recommended by piano enthusiasts and teachers, and can be a great starting point for your piano journey ². However, keep in mind that learning piano requires practice, patience, and persistence. Supplement your learning with online resources, videos, and practice exercises to get the most out of these books. Which one of these books resonates with you, or do you have any specific preferences or goals for learning piano? read less
