"Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course, Level 3, further develops the highly effective "all-in-one" concept introduced in Levels 1 and 2. Lesson pages that teach the fundamentals of music are reinforced by Theory and Solo pages to provide a thorough musical education. Within one course, an adult beginner can learn all that is needed to perform successfully. Lesson pages are designed to provide a basic course of instruction that teaches all the concepts and fundamentals needed to perform. Theory pages give students an added understanding of music which cannot be taught in any other way. Every concept and principle introduced in the Lesson pages is reinforced. Scales and chord progressions in several keys are reviewed and specific technical challenges are drilled. Solo pages offer a variety of styles through which students can enjoy what they've learned. All-time favorites include pop, jazz, folk and classical selections which reinforce the concepts taught in the lesson and theory pages. At the completion of this course, the student will have learned to play some of the most popular songs ever written while gaining a thorough understanding of the basic concepts of music." --
