1.Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the BrainMusicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain
from Picador USA
Price: $13.24

Customer Review:
Oliver Sacks is my new favorite author. His writing style is like a conversation with an old friend. A recent PBS program included his case histories of a few very interestingly musical people. This book continues from there, with personal experiences tied together with analysis of brain function... more info

2.Adult All-In-One Course: Lesson-Theory-Technic: Level 1Adult All-In-One Course: Lesson-Theory-Technic: Level 1
from Alfred Publishing Company
Price: $9.34

Customer Review:
As someone who has no musical experience and not wanting to commit to hiring a teacher, I was looking for an approachable self-teaching guide. This book, so far (about 1/3 of the way into it), is that.
I recommend it highly.

from Alfred Publishing Company
Price: $6.75

Customer Review:
I'm most of the way through this piano course and found it very well done! I'm learning on my own and the progression is perfect - just enough to learn and just enough practice pieces to start nailing down what they've taught. Only thing I haven't enjoyed yet is the blues/jazz pieces pp 107-108 -... more info

from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $6.00

Customer Review:
This book is truly one-of-a-kind. I sat, rivited, reading page-after-page about pianos, the people who play, repair, and worship them. I was delightfully engrossed by minutiae. This book has no real story, but the characters, intertwined with their pianos, are thrillingly alive and compelling.... more info

The writer Ben Fong-Torres makes the difference in this book about the Grateful Dead. To date there have been dozens of books written about the band. This one is very special and different.

9.The Jazz Ear: Conversations over MusicThe Jazz Ear: Conversations over Music
from Times Books
Price: $7.59

Customer Review:
Normally when we think about musicians and "their music", we think about the music that they write, perform, and record. But author Ben Ratliff (jazz critic for the New York Times) decided to ask a different question. What do these musicians listen to and find influential? What are they thinking and... more info

10.Progressive Steps to Syncopation for the Modern Drummer (Ted Reed)Progressive Steps to Syncopation for the Modern Drummer (Ted Reed)
from Alfred Publishing Company
Price: $4.35

Customer Review:
or maybe I'm being unfair ... but I first used Syncopation back when I first took drum lessons (1965 or so) ... and I remembered many of the instruction beats to the point where I entered my 4th or 5th childhood at age 52 and bought the book again (and there they were -- 1 e & a, etc.). Between... more info
