I would like to thank you very much. This Book has left a very nice memory related to my childhood. It was one of the books I looked at from our family bookcase. Years later when I went to see my family I looked at the edition published in 1967 and felt as if I found my childhood friend. Thank you for your effort I'm sure it will encourage many people to at least deal with music as a starter. I had firstly read it while I was playing an organ now I started to take piano lessons and found my childhood friend to teach me things I wanted to remember. I think it is like a bible to people dealing with music. I would like to advice this book to everyone. Just buy one and keep it in a place you can easily reach.
