"What other DVD's and downloads claim to provide these actually deliver, and more."
Dwight Parker
VA, USA

"Great product!!! I have been playing keyboard for about a year mostly self-taught and had got to the point where I was going nowhere. These DVDs are taking my playing to a new level already. The teaching is so simple and easy to understand whatever level you are at. You will be playing songs in days!"

Kazeem Adediran, London UK

"I bought the Intermediate keyboard course a few weeks ago and it has revolutionised my playing. My confidence has improved and I've developed skills that I never dreamt of. Brilliant in so many ways, very clear and has made such a difference to our worship.

Before I had to have the music in front of me, now I actually prefer to work with a chord chart - just what I had been looking for. Fantastic product - I would recommend any of the Musicademy DVDs to anyone!"

Vivien Palmer, Hadden Hall Baptist Church, Bermondsey London

"Musicademy is certainly making a name for themselves as a preeminent worship musician instructional group.....With the beginner's set, you could jump in without ever having touched the keys. The teacher walks you through chord-based playing instead of musical score. This makes it ideal for someone looking to get in quickly with all the tools they need for most church worship styles. The intermediate course is set up for the player who has some history with the piano and wants to build on that knowledge to give their playing a style that best serves worship.Also, someone who simply wants to take their playing to the next level will find the right tools here. With multiple camera andles and obvious experience in teaching music, the Worship Keyboards Course is another great release from Musicademy."

Worship Leader Magazine, July 2007

 "Musicademy totally Rocks! I got the Worship Keyboard dvd set for Christmas, and I LOVE it!!!  In the past I took piano lessons for 3 years, but I've learned things I never knew before! Thanks to everyone who helped make those dvds... its a great and FUN way to learn."  Kassie Armstrong, Tennessee USA

"The Beginners series is excellent, especially with the free downloads from the website of the music it is simple to follow and very thorough. I've picked up the techniques quite quickly, but it's great that I can go at my own pace and stop and start when I need to practice more on any lesson. The Interviews are helpful and inspiring. To learn that Matt Redman can't read music was a great encouragement to me, although I can read music I thought my theory and technical knowledge would be a hindrance, but if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me!" Rachel Fenuga, West Sussex UK

"I am really pleased with the beginners keys DVD, I am already leading worship using keyboard on a few songs as a result. It really is helping my guitar playing as well (a spin off I hadn’t necessarily expected). "

Don Littlejohn, Bracknell UK
