"I liked the heart-felt beginning and the end...but not the babble in between. The idea of the book described on the book jacket was better than the delivery."
"I remember after 250 pages, I was quite disappointed.
At age 50, Noah Adams spent $11,375 on a Steinway Grand (love to have one but definitly going to earn it!) which 12 months later he neither knows how to play. I don't understand what this book try to tell me. I can't seem to relate to any of his quest. Besides, what does one think he can achieve in merely 12 months?!
Don't we all want to make beautiful music?! It requires more than just the love of music. A good teacher, practice & practice and a ok piano will do. That's my experiece as an adult piano student.
And I believe music makeing is a lifelong quest..."
"Ah, seeing the current rating of this book saddens me. -_-; It doesn't however suprise me. "Pianos Lessons" is one of those books that speaks to specific type of reader: the kind that is going through the same thing OR someone like myself that loves the piano with the greatest of passions. I truly would give this book five stars for just the passage at the beginning of the book were he describes Traumerei so passionately.
This book is bound to be overlooked by most people, as it targets a very limited audience. Basically, if you don't have passion for the piano, this book won't touch you the way it has me or any of the other readers that rated it five stars. (It also might be daunting if you have a limited knowledge of Jazz, Blues or Classical Music.)
PLEASE: if you love the piano, read this piece! It is truly amazing."
