Category Description for Teach Yourself to Play _______ Series
This series is designed for beginning musicians. Each book starts right at the beginning, introducing the instrument and proper finger positions. Students then learn notes, rhythms, important chords, music reading, intervals, symbols, scales, and other musical concepts related to the instrument they are learning. This step-by-step approach uses songs which allow students to practice what they're learning. Things start out simple, and progress in difficulty as the student moves ahead. To enable students to hear the exercises and songs played properly, a CD is available which contains all the music from the book. This way, students can listen or even play along with the music. Another wonderful addition to the program is the CD-ROM, which uses the same approach as the book. It teaches all of the same lessons and concepts, allows you to hear the music via the computer, and even has an interactive song player so you can see the music played, change the tempo or audio levels, or record as you play. - Melissa
