Advices for learning Piano

Einführung in den Blues by Goulda Die Meisterung der folgenden Stufen macht dann den guten Bluesmusiker aus. Es wäre nur wünschenswert, wenn wir mehr systematische Seiten im Internet entdecken würden. Die Steigerung ist dann schon ein bisschen stark um als Laie mitzukommen, aber wir lassen uns davon inspirieren oder?
