My Miracle Piano: Musical Styles and Composers from 1894 to Present. Music Appreciation Katie B. Mckay

The purpose of this book is two-fold. One to introduce many of the musical styles and composers from 1894 to the present and increase an appreciation for music and the piano. This information is presented in a simple way that old and young will understand and enjoy. Second to share some of my story in how I came to own an antique piano which as of this writing is 119 years old. This story is from the piano's perspective about all his journeys. As the ivory keys tickle our ears piano's bring life, become our friend and lend miracles to our lives. Without music life would B flat. Developing a skill, such as learning to play the piano shapes and builds our character, self-worth and helps us be grateful for the finer things in life.
