I never received the book. There should be a way to notify the customer when the package should arrive without the customer having to keep reviewing the email. The mail deliver did not leave a note that he was leaving the package elsewhere. I wanted the product.

This book has a very wide variety of piano chords, and is easy enough for a beginner to learn from and understand.
Rating: 5 / 5
This is an excellent pictorial reference of the many piano chords. I havn’t seen other chord books to compare it against but the author did an excellent job. One significant short coming of this, or any chord “book” is that you have to flip through the pages to see the chords. A wall chart, or other one-page quick reference would be an excellent complement to this text. Also, a musician learning chords would greatly benefit from spiral type binding to fold the book back while also reading the chords from the sheet music.

This book is a major disappointment. It failed to show chords for the left hand.
It does show treble and bass clefs, but only displays the chords for the right hand. I can’t imagine why the author failed to show the left hand chords on the bass clefs in the images.
I need the left hand’s chords for my keyboard. That’s why I ordered the book.
Fortunately I bought it from Amazon and Amazon provided me with a postage-paid return label for full credit.

I purchased this book because it was the most complete book of keyboard chords that I could find. The chords for each note are ordered in an intuitive way. This book has every chord that I have ever tried to find. There is a chart in the front section that shows alternate names or symbols. That is, the chart shows that 13 may also be shown as 7(add13) or 7(add6).
One thing I particularly like about the book is the simple, uncluttered, and easy to read presentation. The pictures of each chord are large enough to see easily. While they do present 78 chords for every note, there are only 8 chords per page. This book measures about 12″ by 9″. It’s very handy to open the book to the page I need. While I’m playing, I can quickly glance over to see the chord one more time.
I have found this book to be highly useful and recommend it to anyone looking for a keyboard chord book.
