Salsa Piano Resources<\/h1>\n\t

Salsa Piano Lesson Books<\/h2>\n\t

These are all the books I have found online about learning salsa piano. I started off by buying Salsa Piano – The Complete Guide<\/a>. I think that is a good start, it’s fairly short and comes with online access to examples. I’ve learned that Salsa Piano is usually studied in the context of a band setting, and the band revolves around clave patterns. So backing tracks and audio examples are an important learning asset in the Salsa genre.<\/p>\n

After I’m done working through Salsa Piano – The Complete Guide<\/a> I plan to dig into Beyond Salsa Piano Book Series<\/a>\u00a0by Kevin Moore. Beyond Salsa<\/em> is an extensive library of books for learning salsa music on various instruments.<\/p>\nSalsa Piano – The Complete Guide<\/a>
