Simply Music is a revolutionary, Australian-developed piano learning method that offers a breakthrough in music education. This remarkable approach has students of all ages playing great-sounding contemporary, classical, gospel, blues and accompaniment pieces - immediately - from their very first lessons! Simply Music is based on the premise that all human beings are naturally musical. In contrast to traditional methods, the Simply Music program uses an entirely new and far more natural approach, and focuses on the sheer fun of playing music. Reading-based programs, for the most part, require that students first learn to read music as the means of learning how to play. This ‘read first, play later’ approach is slow and frustrating, and far too many students never acquire the ability to play. In fact, many lose their desire to learn altogether. Beginning students, with no attention on having to read music, are free to relate directly to the piano, and within months easily and naturally begin to establish a ‘hands-on’ and personal ‘feeling’ for the instrument as they build a large repertoire, as well as develop the ability to play chords and modern accompaniments. After building a playlist of 30 to 50 pieces covering a broad range of musical styles, students go on to learn how to read music, their ability to play so well providing a powerful foundation for learning the more formal aspects of music education. Think of Simply Music as being like learning to talk. We all talked for years before we learned how to read and spell. Learning to play the piano before reading music is built on the same idea. Simply Music has also helped countless children and adults with different challenges and disabilities including autism, tourette's syndrome and those who are blind or visually impaired, and more.
