Facing the music

This weekend, Max and I took a road trip up to Normandy to pick up my early birthday present, a piano keyboard! It may be 10 years since my last lesson (not including several ill-fated years of clarinet) but I’m determined to pick it up again. After a couple days of practicing, it’s become painfully clear that I need to practice playing with the left hand and reading music. I’ve printed out some covers of popular music, but most of it is still beyond my ability, so Max has been recruited to participate in ‘Heart and Soul’ duets for now.

Any suggestions for beginner/intermediate piano music or excercises would be appreciated!
