The Rainbow Method: A Colorful Introduction to Staff Reading and Piano Playing - Paperback

by Ariel Nathanson Bolinja (Author), Anna Sziabowski (Illustrator)

The Rainbow Method: A Colorful Introduction to Staff Reading and Piano Playing (Primer-Level) is a piano method book that offers a fun, innovative, and visually engaging approach to musical staff reading. Using a color-coded system, each line and space of the musical staff is assigned a distinct color, while the notes themselves remain in traditional black and white. Coloring the line or space of the staff helps students identify the position of each note on the staff by focusing on its placement, not the color of the note. The goal of this method is to build confident readers who do not rely solely on color cues but instead understand how to navigate the staff through positional awareness and intervallic relationships. The Rainbow Method is designed for students of all ages and abilities, providing a joyful and accessible path to staff reading and piano playing.
