Reviews
I really enjoyed this software. It was exactly what I needed to refresh what I had learned as a child and I was able to play better and more quickly than I had ever been able to before. I too, as a previous reviewer wrote, was worried that the box showed a prior version of Windows as a minimum requirement. I have windows 10 and it works perfectly. It also worked on a previous computer that was using Windows 8. Best money I ever spent on piano instruction.
