The Rocket Piano Online Course Could Be The Answer For You If...

You're thinking of learning the piano, or you just want to brush up on a few techniques.

I heard some good comments lately about an online piano course called ‘The Rocket Piano’. So I decided to check it out.

This simple-to-follow method is designed for the complete beginner and will teach you how to play piano step-by-step. A lot of students that attend our music school started out with this course.

The Rocket Piano will teach you how to:

• Learn to play virtually any song you hear
• Read music
• Adapt your playing style for classical, jazz, blues, rock, pop or gospel music
• Recognize chords
• Play with the correct techniques
• Train your musical ear
• Perform the trickiest of piano skills
• Play with rhythm

When you have mastered the above, you will be able to play most popular songs or even compose your own music.

If you're not sure you've got a talent for playing the piano, it's a good idea to try out ‘The Rocket Piano’ method before committing to a full course of lessons with a private teacher or in a Music School.

P.S. After hearing so many good reviews about ‘The Rocket Piano’ course, and after reading through it and thoroughly testing out the whole thing myself, I am confident of recommending it to the ukpianos.co.uk community. I know there are lots of you out there that want to either learn the piano from scratch, or re-learn the basics. I have to say that it is the best online piano course I have ever seen and give it my full backing.

P.P.S. The Rocket Piano course offers a risk-free 60 day refund policy. So if it does not live up to your expectations you can get a 100% refund.

About Graham Howard - The ukpianos.co.uk editor

I like to regard myself as a very competent pianist. I passed grade 8 when I was 21 and attended Music College for three years. But, even I managed to learn a thing or two from this course. The information I found most useful was the section about hand position and fingering. I tried this out and already my sight reading has improved!

Questions

Dear Graham
Sorry for not contacting you earlier but I have had visitors for the last 2
weeks.

I played the piano when I was 16 but haven't played since. I am now 67!!!!My
husband passed away so I thought I would begin again. I have a Roland HP 1-6
It has a computer in it and I have managed to get my head into gear and I
can recognize notes within my left-hand and right-hand octaves but beyond
that I haven't a clue.Have you anything that will help me?

I have printed off your lessons and read through and different things you
described is slowly bringing it all back to me.

Thankyou for your help.

The best thing you could possibly do that will improve
your piano playing the most is to buy the Rocket Piano
Course by Ruth Searle...

I think it is around £20 - but WELL worth it.

This course is packed full of lessons, tips and advice and
is well over 100 pages.

hi graham ; ruths piano course sounds interesting ;but would her course take me to a graded exam level ie 1 to 8; if so who would listen to me playing at exam time or do i still need a tutor, mick

Reply/ Hi Mick

Ruth's course covers all the basics of learning piano.
It is not geared towards a particular piano exam.

If you want to take a grade exam, you will need a tutor.
Your tutor will tell you which pieces and scales you have
to play in the exam. There is also aural and rhythm tests.

Hi Graham,
 
I haven't yet started out on the Rocket Piano as I'm still working through some Schaum and fitting in my clarinet practice around trying to get my head around two staffs!! However, I am really enjoying giving it a go. for some reason it is playing havoc with my clarinet fingering - which is quite bizarre since I have never had a problem in the past three years with scales, arpeggios etc....I 'm not quite sure that my brain can cope with doing the two at once, but I'm determined to persevere!!
 
thanks
Graham

Reply/ Hi Graham

I have no idea why practicing piano interferes with
your clarinet playing...

Could it be that playing piano is something new and
your fingers just need adjust to it?

I think you will get used to it and you will be fine.

I like your positive attitude. The only way to progress
your piano playing is to play every day (if possible) and
as you say, keep persevering -- NEVER give up!

Yours Pianistically,
Graham Howard

I tried to look at the rocket piano site - but my internet security does not like the site. I can reluctantly get around this but he offer of download lessons for $39.95 comes up as $59.95 when I go through the clickbank system and I'm worried that this is all a bit suspicious as there are no contact details for Ruth or indications that the rocket piano site is a valid DNS site. Indeed the resonse mail I got for "free" lessons is from "The Piano Guy" in California and everything is linked with a "GetResponse" email marketing service.
 
Can you personally vouch for Ruth Searle and that the whole thing is not just a way to scam bank or credit card details, give low value for money products or a way to spam please?
 
I have been heartened by finding your site and am looking to upgrade from Keyboard to Digital piano - I would be interested in doing so via your site. However, I am also very wary of Internet transactions and the potential to get ripped off or end up with thousands of Junk emails
 
Some reassurance from you would help greatly.

The Rocket Piano course is DEFINITELY NOT a scam. I have been recommending this course for over 2 years now and actually purchased it myself.

It is 100% legitimate.

I think the reason it mentions the Piano Guy is that originally it was written by Ashley Southam. Ashley then passed the course over to Ruth.

Also... Don't worry about Get Response. They are also a legitimate email company that Rocket Piano uses to deliver their email. They have been around for years.

I hope this puts your mind at rest... Let me know if you have any more concerns.

Hi Graham got a reply from Hear Play thanks for shaking them up,still think Rocket Piano course is good  course.Also they are quick with there  replies when you email them which is good means the suport is still there.I must admit I have practice more with this course than i used to when i went to music lessons ,I think its due to the way its laid out and also being able to go back and listen to the lesson played over again you know what they are supposed to sound like .When you go to music lessons coming home you forget how the pieces sounded (well I do ) Thanks again

Learning to play the piano is like learning how to speak a language.

If you were learning French, for instance, you would need to listen and speak it, and the more you speak - the more you imitate native speakers, the more fluent you'd become.

The same is true if you want to learn to play the piano. The more you listen and play in time with professional pianists, the more professional you will become. That partly explains how Ruth Searle developed Rocket Piano - the Ultimate Piano Learning Kit.

Originally Ruth created three books which contain step-by-step lessons, including numerous sound files, taking people on a journey from beginner to advanced in their piano playing skill, by fast-tracking their piano playing, while covering every aspect involved in learning to play piano.

Hi Graham
 
We also purchased Rocket Piano as per your recommendation at the 50% sale price (even though I thought the offer may be a gimmick, at £10 who can afford not to try it!!!). I was impressed with the amount of content for such low outlay - great value for money.
 
With the aid of my son's Grade 1 books (before obtaining the Rocket Piano), I have already learned to play 2 simple tunes (Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and Frere Jacques), and am eager to progress. It's a great feeling even being able to play such a tiny bit, and look forward to slowly improving. Thanks for your help and advice via your website. Just what I needed to kick me off in progressing my (and my family's) new interest. (My son is primarily learning to play violin at school, and is improving quickly.)
 
Thanks

I was looking at mr ronmusic from rocket piano but on trying to email ronmusic it came back with an error “email not valid” and I have emailed rocket piano 3 days ago and had no reply. Did you personally check out this course and do they still exist? I could do with a beginners and onward course, not professional. I have tried music teachers but they tend to stick to what goes with exams.

Hi Charles

I have sent an email to my friend John at Rocket Piano letting him know the problems you have had. He should be in touch with you shortly. I have personally checked out this course. I bought it myself last year and went through and tested each page. It is the best piano course I have ever seen BY FAR.
