By David AngermanA Progressive Piano Method for the Christian Student by Joseph Martin, David Angerman, and Mark Hayes Keys for the Kingdom is a fully graded piano series designed especially for the Christian student. Through a stylistically diverse set of musical experiences, students will learn the foundations of good musicianship. Each lesson is carefully written to provide gradual progress. The graphic illustrations are designed to be fun and inspiring, as well as to reinforce the lesson. While learning the basic concepts of piano playing, the student is introduced to many styles of sacred music: the wealth of great hymnody, songs, and psalms of the church; as well as the great classics in piano literature that every student needs to excel in musical study. Also included in the series are Bible verses affirming spiritual values intended to motivate the student toward excellence at the keyboard.

Companion products include hymnbooks, contemporary Christian songbooks, theory/technique/improvisation books, performance books, seasonal books and duet books. These, along with planned future companion materials, will help support the student's learning quest. Each method book establishes a deliberate, but steady pace for the developing student. Principles of reading music, theory, technique, interpretation, and musicianship are explored. Calling on the combined teaching experience of over 40 years, the authors have fashioned new ways of teaching proven concepts. Great emphasis is placed on the beauty if the music, the lyrics, and the art, which accompanies individual songs. Each lesson also includes appropriate scripture references to help students discover the joy of worshipping and serving God through their own music.

I have been teaching for 22 yrs. This is my favorite series. It sets a very strong foundation for note reading and is not based on the number finger system or key positions. Each page focuses on one hand. One page for RH and the next page for LH. Therefore it sets a concrete foundation for the notes in the treble clef vs. the bass clef. It is not until the end of Level 1 that the students plays in the grand staff and begins reading both clefs at the same time. All my students who start in this series, are my best readers. The musical examples are beautiful and are tuneful. The teacher accompaniments make the beginner music sound professional and lyrical. Since the teacher accompaniments sound like real music and not just some type of add on, it helps the student be able to hear musical phrases and to see and hear where the music is headed. It also does not teach c position or F position etc.. It teaches the students to become solid readers
