The Soft Mozart piano teaching method makes the piano learning as natural, comfortably gradual and entertaining as possible. It involves students in intensive music practice from the very start, sparing them from dull lectures and long explanations. Avoiding months of abstract memorizing, it gives any beginner the enjoyment of reading and playing well-known music pieces from the first lesson. Original exercises, disguised in the form of fun computer games, develop skills required for the proficient music score reading and piano playing. With the help of the Soft Mozart software, school children and adults can easily learn difficult songs, while 3-5 years old children start playing piano and reading the music score long before they learn the alphabet!
The method is based on the original teaching technique developed by Hellene Hiner and has been successfully used to teach piano to children in the Ukraine and more recently - in the US. It assures the development of a solid musical background for beginners and offers a powerful way for advanced students to further improve and enhance their skills. Enhanced and implemented in the form of piano learning software by Valeriy Koukhtiev, this method has been used to teach piano to a spectrum of students ranging from two-year-old children to adult beginners in music studios and schools in the USA, Canada, Spain, Russia, Costa Rica and other countries. The method succeeds to attract any student and to provide him with extensive music practice which is the key for a student's fast progress.
