Musical Instruments

What books and software do you suggest to learn piano, reading scores, and music theory?

I try to learn playing the piano. I guess the first step is knowing how to read musical scores. I was wondering if there was software that allowed me learn notes computer keyboard. Then I was hoping to get some books to learn how to actually play the piano, music theory, and also reading scores. Thank you. I'm trying to learn to play the piano. I guess the first step is to understand how to read musical scores. I was wondering if there was software that will allow me to learn the notes of the computer keyboard. Then I was hoping to get books to learn how to actually play the piano, music theory, and also reading scores. Thank you. I should also mention that I have no access directly to a store (I have no car, a college campus) and was recommended for securities in the hope that I can order off Amazon or BN.

You're really better to take some piano lessons in person if possible. Any theory in the world will not help you if You can not link the notes to the keys and tones. Once you can get a good visual map that C or F # * looks * and * sounds * like the piano, then you can begin to see how it translates into a score. Once at this point, there are one million self-learning books and videos, and you can choose one that works best with a style LEARING you want.
