man was a prodigy

system was called 'missing visual link' by Yuri Rozum - pianist and national artist of Russia

curriculum and software was endorsed by Moscow and Madrid conservatories

More then enough credits to consider the invention seriously.

I watched your video and all it promotes is YOUR software as you say(The missing link) What about children who don't have a PC or don't have the additional skills to use a pc? does that mean they cannot learn piano? You even use mozart in the software name. A man who NEVER used this program yet did very well without it. Your video suggests that piano tutors around world are trying to make money out of people and that is rubbish. Mozart would simply say practice makes perfect!

I placed the video as a responce and you may find it under the main video.

[lenkaolenka]

You may find an answer in one of my videos called 'What you have to SEE before you pay for music lessons'. It is a short video with a lot of valuable information for you as a teacher.

Yes i can honestly say that ALL of those children can now read music notation and play the piano with confidence.

ANY music teacher worth their weight in gold would tell you that the first lesson/lessons are crucial and they would never ever say ( the last lesson) because i myself as a musician for almost 30yrs know that music is such a VAST subject that you are ALWAYS learning so there is never a last lesson.

Why do underestimate a childs ability to learn the piano without this software?

[lenkaolenka]

For children and their parents, it should not be so important the first lesson. What about the last lesson?

Could you say honestly how many children of those from the full classrooms can ACTUALLY read music after 5 or more years of your music classes? Just taking a very simple, but not learned, song, like "Marry had a little lamb". Can any one just play it from the sheet? But not like in exams, spending on each note several minutes deciding if this note is actually the middle C or not.

[johnnyuk123]

I dissagree,

I teach full classrooms of children music.

The first lesson is always how to find your way around the piano ( without stickers or knowledge etc)

That very important lesson is taught from day one and the children understand clearly how to find any given note at the piano after one lesson.

[lenkaolenka]

To think that just explaining a student how to find a note name for each key is enough for a successful piano playing can be made either by a person who can very well read music and already forgot his own strugles, or by a person who do not play piano at all.

It is the same as to explain to a driver student where is the wheel, speed and break pedal, and think she is ready for a drive thru a city.

You need to train the skills of reading several notes and playing them in acceptable time span

[lenkaolenka]

Yes, it is one of the main differences betwen your (the current music teaching tradition view) and our method.

Teachers say - to teach children to read music is easy!

Why than the piano teaching has failed to teach most children how to read music? It easily can be proved.

That's the point that the visal connection between the music notes and piano keys is so complex that most student and even many musicians experience difficulties while reading after many years of study and playing.

I agree with you johnny, I started by writing notes on my keyboard like this and I was playing fine. The problem is when I got a piano and didn't want to write on it. I couldn't play anything, I had focused on the written notes and not the keys. I knew the note scale so I learned where A and C are located between which black keys. After that I knew all the notes without hesitation. I wish I had done that to begin with and hadn't written notes on the keyboard.
