If you want to be a real
pianist, a selection of
good piano books is really
a necessity. You can spend
as much time as you want
to practicing scales, but
it is simply not enough.
If all that you do is practice
your scales, you will probably
get bored with playing piano,
and when you get bored,
your playing will suffer.
Through using piano books
with songs that you like,
you can keep playing fun
and interesting, and that
is the most important thing
that there is, hands down,
to make you into a really
bang up musician.
There are many good piano
books available, no matter
what kind of music you are
into. From classical, to
jazz, to rock, to pop, and
everywhere in between, there
are books on piano available
for every genre. Personally,
I like to mix it up quite
a bit. I buy piano books
for all of the great classical
pieces, and then learn to
play the music, but sometimes
I want a change. It is good
to be able to play the songs
that your friends want to
hear. I mean, why be an
entertainer if you can not
entertain? So, I make sure
to buy piano books covering
all of the most popular
songs so that I can take
requests whenever I happen
to be entertaining. I even
own piano books filled with
songs that I don't even
much care for.
