I currently teach piano and guitar in Chico, California. My fascination for piano began a few years ago when I completely restored and tuned my 1901 Ivers & Pond upright piano. I absolutely love the sound of that piano but found myself frustrated because I could not produce the beautiful music, I know it was worthy of. Piano Tab was first created as a tool to help me learn to play a Bach Prelude on the piano. I am basically a guitar player that wants to also play piano. As a teacher of guitar and beginning piano, I appreciate and understand the value of reading music as well as playing by ear and with over 50 years' experience involved with music, I know that reading the grand staff of piano notation is difficult and slow for most musicians. Because this method of reading piano music works so well for me, it became my mission to share it to the world and music community to enjoy.
