HANDS DOWN THE BEST CLASSICAL PIANO COURSE ONLINE

“Another awesome course from Robin. This is my third course from Robin on Piano. Loved the piano-for-all (still in progress) and the Erik Satie (finished 2 out of 3 pieces) and now this preludes from Bach enriching my musical journey. A very nicely and carefully created course content. To be honest, its little more than I required (as I’ve been consistently playing for over 10 months now) but I can understand a real beginner would need all the details/help which the instructor has covered in this course.

This is hands-down the best classical piano course online. I’m done with prelude-Cmajor for now and can’t wait for improve it before I jump into Cminor. Dear Robin, Thanks you sir… hope you keep on creating such courses covering classics…. and possibly some Chopin pieces (psst: Waltz in A minor).”

PACKED WITH USEFUL INFORMATION

“The instructor makes it so easy to play and remember the notes. You just have to put in the time to practice. This course is packed with useful information for how to go from sheet music to playing the prelude.”

Ali Ammari

THE COURSE WAS FANTASTIC!

“The course was fantastic! I was amazed at how many different materials provided and approaches provided to learning this piece. Not simply the sheet music, but cheat sheets and other tools to help me learn the piece. I have successfully memorized and completed the piece in around 2 weeks.”

Matt Beech

HIS STARTING POINT IS HOW HUMANS WORK

“Robin Hall’s approach is brilliant – his starting point is how humans work (whereas most people’s starting point is how *music* works) – and then draws on that understanding to design his lessons.

As a beginner, I can’t believe how quickly I’ve been able to learn piano with his method.”

Elizabeth Dozois

INFORMATIVE, SIMPLE AND FUN

“I’ve already learned using Robin’s First “Classics by Ear – Erik Satie” programme and cant fault his teaching style. Informative, simple and fun. Can’t wait for more!”

I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF THIS COURSE

“Robin Hall is an excellent piano teacher and I definelety recommend that you buy all of his piano courses because you will see outstanding results with your piano playing.Because of his exellect teaching, I can now play bach in C minor and major perfectly by ear!

I loved every minute of this course!”

YOU HAVE MADE THIS SO EASY

“You have made this so easy to play with the wonderful visuals and Instructions which I printed out to have at hand. At 74 years of age, I finally found a beautiful tune to be able to play because of you’re program. Brilliant. I’m almost up to the speed that you play at till working on that and the various volumes required to make this piece sound properly. I have purchased you”re other programs so I have much to do and much to look forward to. Fills my early mornings, my late nights. Robin, You have some very powerful and Brilliant teaching power. Thank You, Ginter”

Ginter Schatz

VERY CALM

“Very clear and easy to follow. Delivered slowly enough for me to “compute” think about what is being said and to touch the notes on my own piano. Very calm.”

Deirdre Fee

COULD NOT BE MORE PLEASED

“Finished the Prelude in C major. Could not be more pleased with this course. If you love the piano and are just beginning your journey, please try it. You will not be disappointed.”

Clyde Fisher

VERY EASY TO FOLLOW

“Excellent! Very easy to follow. After that course, I learned enough to take on my own some other pieces. I bought all your courses. Please!!!! Do course for Clair de lune”

Vesna Kotnik

VERY ENGAGING AND MOTIVATING

“Very engaging and motivating, inspirational and encouraging. Robin’s tuition – as with his broader course PIANO FOR ALL (which I also own and have gained much from) – is again superb! Quite simply piano tuition worth its weight in gold, but very modestly priced – a massive “bang for your buck”! Buy it and try it for yourself and you won’t be disappointed, I promise you; indeed you’ll be chomping at the bit to have a go and progress to the next level of your musical journey, discovery, and competence.

Thanks, Robin, keep up the good work – and keep bringing us more superb piano/music lessons in the near future, sir! :-)”

HAS INSPIRED ME TO LEARN MORE

“It was a good experience. First time in my life I can learn and complete a piece of music using the piano. Thank you Robin. This has inspired me to continue to learn more.

I thought it is impossible for me but with your structured programme and well paced instructions, it has helped me to journey through this and learn an interesting piece.”

Koh Tat Suan

EXCELLENT BREAKDOWN

“Excellent breakdown technique. This was an excellent match for me. I tend to want to jump ahead before I have mastered a section completely. This kept me on track and I could go back and work on any section I needed too work on.
I am 70 years old and memorization has become difficult but I was able to stay focused and work through each section at my own pace. I realize that this was not a complex piece but I will apply the technique to other songs. Thank you.”
