BOOKS

Mickey & Yaco’s Catchy Piano! logo – three black cats lifting a grand piano played by a green dog, with the series title.

As piano students and teachers, we grew tired of endlessly practicing dry, mechanical study pieces before finally reaching the joy of concert pieces by great composers.

​

So we were inspired to create a new kind of book — one that brings the essence of concert music into each lesson from the very beginning, progressing all the way to the advanced level. 

​

Concert pieces naturally connect listeners to musical energy, bringing joy and pleasure. All musical elements and necessary skills stem from that energy — so it's deeply valuable for students to experience it from the first lesson, allowing them to grow musically, naturally, and joyfully.

​

These books are entirely our own original creations; every piece is built from scratch to carry that musical energy and provide a fun, efficient, and inspiring learning experience.

​

The Secrets of the Catchy Piano! Series:

 

• A variety of musical styles – spark students’ musical awareness

• Vivid illustrations – boost fun and imagination

• Magazine-style design – opens a playful learning path

• Step-by-step skill-building – encourages joyful challenges

• Short pieces – build confidence through early success

​

The first edition was released in 2012. Our Second Edition Project, launched in 2022, is now bringing updated books to Amazon — with more coming soon!
