AlfredAlfred's Basic Group Piano Course Book 2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Book 2 of Alfred's group piano course. For students continuing in an instructor-led class or keyboard lab, not for someone starting from zero alone.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Students already through Book 1 of the same course
- Teachers running a keyboard lab or group class
- Adults taking piano as a structured class
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Complete beginners with no prior piano — start at Book 1
- Self-teachers who want a step-by-step private-lesson method
- Anyone wanting songbook repertoire rather than course material
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Group piano course
Written for a room of students with an instructor. Exercises assume other people playing alongside you.
Detail 03
Alfred's Basic series
Shares terminology and sequencing with the rest of the Basic line, so it drops into an existing lesson plan.
Detail 04
Book only
No disc or backing audio. Practice is you and the keyboard, at whatever tempo the class sets.
Detail 05
$14.99
Consumable price. Writing fingerings and notes directly on the pages is the normal way to use it.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Guitar of the piano world: you need regular keyboard access to make progress
- 02Check you've finished Book 1 — this assumes that material
- 03Bought alone, the group exercises lose most of their point
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I teach myself with this?
You can work the material solo, but it's built for a class. A private-lesson method book will guide a self-teacher better.
02Do I need Book 1 first?
Yes. Book 2 continues a sequence and assumes the reading, rhythm, and hand-position work from Book 1.
03Does it include a CD or audio?
No. It's the printed book on its own.
04What keyboard do I need?
Any piano or keyboard you can practice on consistently. A weighted-key instrument matches what a class piano lab uses.
