The Truth About Rocket Piano

By Velma Germany

Playing the piano used to be so boring. I know because I tried doing so. And it wasn't just boring, sometimes it was intimidating. My very own piano experience was so. I could just picture how my old piano teacher used to carry with her a stick as thick as my thumb which she would use to tap the keys that I missed.

Rocket Piano is the newest online piano course devised by Ruth Searle. Searle is a professional pianist who has earned national acclaim in her native New Zealand.
