Book Reviews of John Thompson's Modern Course for the Piano: First Grade Book
Book Review: Still the best after all these years
Summary: 5 Stars
My aunt used the Thompson books, I used the Thompson books, my grandmother [a piano teacher] used the Thompson books. I, a piano teacher, use Thompson books. WHY? They advance appropriately, one doesn't have to buy a zillion other books to go with them [and constantly be running to the music store to buy supplemental books---see Faber and Faber, for example; and Faber is a very good, modern series. But Costly Costly Costly to get all the parts.] Thompson has it all in one place. It doesn't have a ton of theory, though, and a wise teacher will supplement Thompson for that. Not only are the pieces interesting and challenging, they can be colored! Yes! We all know how many music students tend to be artistic, so you've got even happier students! I have to say, though, that if you're looking for something with a slower and [sorry to say] "dumbed down" approach, Thompson is NOT for you. It does work well for adults, but the Faber adult books are more specific to adult learners, and I prefer them for that student population. Long Live John Thompson Books!
