FAQ
We have many videos which anyone can access free of charge on our standard YouTube channel
Here is the link to our Keyboard Academy Channel
We are planning a Patreon channel with lots more exclusive teaching content which will be available on a subscription basis. For £10.00 per month you will gain access to a host of additional educational content not available on our standard you tube site. We will also feature some very special guest presenters from time to time.
More and more people are using a tablet to display their music scores. With this in mind we can offer optional PDF downloads of the scores from our books. Contact us for details.
The 'Free Stuff' tab in our Webshop will from time to time offer free scores for you to download. These can either be printed or downloaded to your tablet.
All of our Books are appropriate for any arranger keyboard however a more recent model will hopefully offer the MP3 playback facility and more up to date accompaniment styles and sounds.
Our On-Line Lessons will be given via Zoom. You will need to download the Zoom app either on you Phone,Tablet or computer and ideally onto something which has a camera. We can assist with the downloading of Zoom if you have any issues.
Whilst you can participate without a camera it is much nicer if we can see each other throughout the lesson. For 1 on 1 Product sessions we would suggest that a camera is essential.
Yes, we are very happy to accommodate you for a single lesson. With all On-Line lessons it would help if we know what you require us to cover before hand so we do not waste valuable time during the lesson.
Once you have placed an order with us, we will then be able to email you when anything new is release. We would also advise you subscribe to our YouTube channel as you will receive a notification when a new video is uploaded. All new products will be announced on our YouTube channel.
Whilst you can simply buy the book on its own, we would highly recommend purchasing the MP3 files (keyboard permitting) as they will be a great help in learning the pieces especially the Original Scores. It is also both a great timing aid and great fun to play along with the Minus One tracks. You literally are playing with the 'Band'

Hi
I find your YouTube channel very professional and well put together.
It's done in a methodical, straightforward way and is invaluable in my development to become a better keyboard player
The book that I recently purchased is well laid out and professional put together.
Clear and concise and contains plenty of education and entertaining content.
The YouTube videos accompanying the songbook videos really well and give me a good indication of how to perform the sheet music
I look forward to future presentations and purchases from you.
Please feel free to quote anything I have written.
Best regards
Rob
'Thank you for emailing the books and MP3s, they are going to be a great help to me as I have always used the “Easiest Keyboard” books in the past and your books will stretch me a fair bit and teach me techniques I have so far shied away from. The MP3s and YouTube videos are excellent, what a brilliant idea you’ve had'.
We would only refer to you as Mr T from Leicestershire.
'Loving Paul's keyboard Academy features on the Pa5x. Just got a Pa5x so they are helping a great deal'.
"I had originally contacted the Keyboard Academy with request for lessons on this new acquisition of mine, an arranger.
I noticed they sold down-loadable books, at very good prices. I bought a couple and am working my way through ‘Chord Substitution’ just now.
I find it easy to read and they have basic versions of the well known tunes to start out with, following with more advanced arrangements.
It helps if you know some chord inversions but coupled with the MP3 downloads for each of the, it is a really great combination.
It really helps me get with the rhythms, I am very pleased with my purchases."
