Great for very young students February 27, 2008

I bought this book and also the workbook and discovery book for my niece who is four years old. I am a piano teacher, and normally tell parents to wait until their child is at least in kindergarden before beggining piano lessons, but my sister-in-law begged me to start her daughter earlier. I was already teaching her older sister, so I thought I would give this mehtod a try. The lessons proceed very slowly, and are very basic, perfect for a four year old with a short attention span. The lesson book moves at a slow pace introducing basic concepts such as steady beat, higher/lower, finger numbers, quarter note rhythms and rests through whole notes and rests, measuers, times signatures, groupings of black keys, and white notes one at a time. There are duet parts for the teacher to play with every student lesson. Each lesson begins with a continuation of a story begun on page one. One concept is introduced at a time. There are coloring activities in the lesson book as well as in the workbook to reinforce the concepts. The discovery book has songs for the teacher to play, while the student performs movements which reinforce concepts from the lesson. The book moves a slow pace while keeping the student interested and learning. I am very impressed with this method and have ordered level 2 for my neice who is about to complete level 1.

This is a great 'teach it to your child yourself' book even if you're not a pianist. As a piano teacher, I recommend it to parents/aunts/uncles/grandparents who want to expose a young child to playing the piano or keyboard. The story of Mozart Mouse and Beethoven Bear makes the lessons even more interesting - keeps the student's attention longer.
I like it. (Rebecca is 4 yrs old) October 14, 2005

I like it so much that I like to play it again. My favourite song in this book is 'Haydn's Symphony'.
I like it so much it's my music book ofcourse. I like all the animals best because they learn me music so much. I can't even kiss them because they are in my music book. Mummy might get me the animals for christmas!
Music for Little Mozarts Review December 23, 2008

I'm a piano teacher and have been using this method ever since it came out. Although this method moves very slowly students quickly "catch up" after finishing the series and move to another method. My middle school students are playing early advanced literature in middle school! They just flew thru the method I used with them after Music for Little Mozarts. Waiting to begin lessons when a child turns seven almost seems too late. Most are quite eager to learn and play. Parents should capitalize on this wonderful time in their child's life. It's really a joy for the parents and this teacher to see!

I think this book and its series is fun for little children. It does move a little slow, but that works fine for average children. If your child is really quick, though, I would consider another series.
