Jazzkids and Willie

OK I now have my mandate: To teach the kid to make beautiful music on the old black and whites. I also have my own hidden agenda: To be able to play a recognizable tune and not just a Joe Zawinul wah wah solo from Bitches Brew. Problem 1: I could not play a scale with the correct fingering even if someone held a gun to my head. Problem 2: I have no idea what to teach my kid. Solution: Piano Teacher. Problem: Zoe no want. Cost big money. The big bail out has not made it to my house yet. Solution 2: Online piano lessons as presented by me. What? I take a lesson and then give it to Zoe. Problem: There are now seemingly thousands of online piano courses. Piano Magic, Rocket Piano, The Sudnow Method, LearntoplaylikeHorowitzin8andhalfseconds.com So I do my due dilligence. Sudnow has been around for a long time but is not really for kids. Rocket Piano seems too inexpensive and anything called Rocket makes me nervous (I tried Rocket Spanish and usually fell asleep), Piano Magic seems OK but the web page seems to taking it's sales cues from a the herbal viagra, penis extension industry. So I am about to give up and dig up a piano teacher when I stumble upon jazzkids.com. More to come...
