Inspired by the Colourstrings method the Colour Keys Piano ABC is an inspiring tutor designed for small beginners. The book also applies the ideas of Kodály in emphasizing the inner hearing skills through audio-visual means. New ideas are offered gradually, e.g. the coloured staff is constructed from a single-line staff to a five-line staff. The book also includes supporting material, e.g. a coloured slip to be placed behind the keys.

Excellent Kodaly-based method
I absolutely love this method. I've been using the old version of Colour Keys, and this is a major improvement in a multitude of ways. It moves at a slower pace, setting the child up very well in a well-rounded technically and musically. Two-handed playing is encouraged from very early on. The child is also encouraged to clap/sing with words/sing with solfege everything before playing, helping internalise the pieces thouroughly.You MUST have an understanding of the Kodaly method before considering using it, as it is completely different to your average, traditional piano method! Get Kodaly training before attempting to use it.I would also recommend purchasing the teacher's manual for it, available through the publisher's website.
