A must-have supplemental tool for all beginning piano students
Notebusters was created by an experienced music teacher who was dissatisfied with the lack of note reading practice in typical music theory books. Without properly learning how to sight-read, students can stagnate and lose motivation. Our workbooks address this gap with months of note-reading exercises that help music students quickly identify notes.
80 note-reading exercises broken into 4 sections that get progressively harder
Each one-minute exercise in Notebusters: Beginner Piano contains 25 notes for the student to identify. Every section includes clear instructions and an easily accessible answer key. After every five exercises, students are challenged to play the notes from that day’s exercise on the piano. Notebusters’ workbooks also contain a brief overview of the most common note-reading methods. After completing the workbook, students will have identified 2,000 music notes. Sample exercises from the workbook are shown below:
