If you've been a reader of this site at all then you know we're huge fans of the people over at HearAndPlay. Jermaine Griggs is truly a talented instructor. This course was the very first purchase I made from HearAndPlay.com and I've been a fan ever since. Their music and vocal programs are second-to-none in ease, quality and results.
The program is a 300-pg written book that goes over everything you need to know to start playing. What does that mean? That means when you're done, you'll be able to sit down at the keyboard and play a completely original, totally unique song on the spot, all by using your ear.
That's right... No written sheet music to worry about. No boring traditional songs to learn.
Just playing what you want - and making it sound amazing. That's why I love this program and highly recommend it to anyone (beginner or advanced player) looking to become a master at playing this instrument. And with a lifetime money back guarantee, you have absolutely nothing to lose by trying it out.
Trust me - you'll love this program.

This is a pretty popular piano lesson online and has been around for a while. Unlike HearAndPlay's option, this tutorial is based more on traditional concepts. That's not to say it isn't effective, because it very much is effective. It's great for beginners and intermediate students.
You'll learn traditional music theory, and about sight reading, etc. There isn't much of a focus on playing by ear alone, but if you're looking to learn to play the traditional way - this may be the course for you. There's a lot of great extras too like tutorial videos, audio files and games. And like HearAndPlay, there's a few pretty nice bonuses included when you purchase Rocket Piano.
What's more is you'll also get access to SongPond for 30 full days absolutely free. SongPond is a place where you can go to learn your favorite popular songs for free online. So, although it's not as fun as playing by ear, you get the chance to learn a lot of great music and still come away with a new mastery of the keyboard.
Try it out - you don't have anything to lose.
