Piano book for a Clarinet player

on: October 12, 2005, 05:54:42 PM

Hello guys,

Great site! My wife who used to play Clarinet in High School band now wants to learn how to play the Piano. She has never played the Piano before, is there a good book you guys can recommend for her to start off with?

Hi and welcome.
Rather than recommend a specific book, I would strongly recommend that she find a teacher who will work with adult beginners. Already being able to read music from playing clarinet (at least treble clef) will help.
Good luck!
