The Goal Of Rocket Piano
According the author of Rocket
Piano*, Ruth Searle, “you'll discover how to read music, how to
improvise, how to play Jazz and Gospel, and how to play with the magic and "feel" of a professional. We
designed Rocket Piano to be the easiest system to learn to play the piano available anywhere.”
Who Will Benefit Most From The Rocket Piano Lesson Course?
This Piano Course is designed for beginners through intermediate
players.
What Kind of Piano Does This Course Require?
The Rocket Piano
lessons are designed for both acoustic pianos and electric keyboards. 
About The Instructor Ruth Searle
In her own words: “I am classically trained …. in Solo Piano and have more
than 15 years experience playing. While Classical piano is my specialty I also have extensive experience
performing Jazz, Pop, Blues, Rock, and Gospel.”
“I spent three years studying music and graduated with a Bachelor of Media Arts majoring in
Commercial Music. I also received an Australasian Award for Composition.” Rocket

The Negatives
Downloadable lesson
The programs used to be frustrating to download, organize and quickly
retrieve the bits of audio and video as needed. This has been brilliantly fixed with special free download
management software that does all of the file organizing for you. Just click on a video or audio button in
the ebook and it pops to the foreground. Nice Job Rocket Piano.
The final and only significant weakness of Rocket
Piano is that
it is a written program with audio and video enhancements instead of an
all-video program. They have, however, done a masterful job of enhancing each written lesson with well
produced photos, diagrams, audio, video and play-along jam tracks.
The Positives
- The Price is a bargain at
$39.95
- The volume and selection of lessons is good.
- The author/ instructor Ruth Searle does a nice job.
- The bonus software items are genuinely useful and worth the $39.95 by
themselves.
- The quality of the audio and video snippets are excellent.
The Cost Analysis
The Price is $39.95 and includes
all of the items mentioned above.
Rocket Piano Lessons with Ruth Searle contains the equivalent of 6 months to a year of
lessons if you were to space them out as if you were taking lessons from a local piano teacher. A local instructor
typically will charge anywhere from $20 to $50 USD per weekly lesson. Your minimum cost, ( not including materials
), at only $20 per lesson for 6 to 12 months would be approximately $520 to $1040 USD .
The choice comes down to Rocket
Piano at $39.95 USD or a local instructor at
$520.
Support

support. A well used forum with piano related questions and answers is also available. Every Rocket
Piano member is entitled to lifetime updates of
the software and lessons.
Guarantee

full refund of the purchase price.
The Bottom Line
My top recommendations always lean towards instrumental music lesson
programs that are all-video. They generally offer a clearer method of communicating lots of subtle
information. Having said that, I feel that Rocket
Piano is the absolute Best partial audio and
video enhanced, written lessons I have ever seen. At only $39.95 it is also
the least expensive one.
Rocket Piano is perfect for someone that does not wish to spend $150- $200 for an
all-video program. It is an excellent, complete, professional, low-cost way to get started with learning to play
piano. For these reasons, I recommend, with out hesitation, the Rocket
Piano lesson
program.
