The 30 pieces contained within this tutorial are aimed exclusively at piano beginners. All pieces are easy to play and will enable you to rapidly gain substantial experience in piano playing and, since they are adapted versions of real musical pieces, you will at no time lose your pleasure of playing. In order not to overwhelm you, the level of difficulty of the pieces to be performed increases progressively, allowing you to work in a fluent and coherent manner. The piano pieces put together in this tutorial will also allow you to discover musical styles which are totally different from one another, forming a large panorama of contemporary and classic music. You will get a tasteof popular music, jazz, ragtime, blues and rock. So you can rest assured, there’s something for everyone in here(!) The CD attached to the book will make your study even more enjoyable. Every musical piece appears twice: the first time for demonstration purposes (with the piano) and the second in the form of a backing track (without the piano), in order to give you the opportunity to play the piano and enjoy the accompaniment of other musicians.

The Belgian composer Nicholas Lens presents extremely varied etudes, exercises and simple phrases with wonderfully telling titles from poetry and everyday world for children and adults. For the most part the studies are tonal and simple and have no constructed line. They are not based on any educational concept but leave the musical dramatization to the pupils and teachers: 'Notes and rhythms are just notes and rhythms, they do not have that many rules, they do not have any pretension, they are just tools for you to use to express what you want to share'.
