No Notes Keyboard Music

Learning to play the piano is not easy. There are so many piano keys and so many fingers to co‐ordinate! Beginners like No Notes piano music because it is easy to understand and because it offers more rewarding musical and technical challenges than standard notation can. No Notes piano music rewards beginners’ practice efforts with music that family and friends will recognise and enjoy. And as they work out how to play No Notes pieces, beginners learn a variety of foundation keyboard skills including navigating the piano keyboard, reading music, playing without looking at fingers and thumbs, playing in time, developing even‐handedness, and playing musically.

An especially attractive and unusual feature of all No Notes piano music is that it can be played easily as duets by two (or more) absolute beginners (i.e. either as a duet or as a group keyboard session) which makes learning to play half as hard and twice as much fun! All songs also include many colourful and playful illustrations as well as the words, so beginners can enjoy singing songs as they play.

No Notes piano music is an original tablature (’tab’) notation that makes it easy for beginners to concentrate on ‘finding their fingers’ and playing musically. It incorporates several key features of standard piano music so No Notes graduates are not only motivated but also prepared to make the transition from No Notes piano tab to standard piano music.
