Piano Method Madness
Piano Method Madness is a podcast that focuses on getting former piano players back to playing the piano. The show discusses problems many piano students come across after learning a few songs or basic piano theory. The dilemma of deciding what to do or which musical genre to learn next often leaves students with a stuck in the mud feeling. Piano Method Madness helps piano students to move forward with their decision making process by reviewing popular piano method books. Users can then acquire a copy of the piano method book being discussed to play along with the show's narrator. The narrator explains where complications exists and how students can overcome them.
