    Morty Manus is president of Alfred Music Publishing Co., Inc. When Morty joined the company, he had recently received a business degree from City College of New York. As a clarinetist and pianist, he saw the need for quality music education publications. Drawing upon his musical experiences, Morty oversaw the development of instructional publications for accordion, guitar, piano, and drums; performance music for band, orchestra, chorus, and music theory.

    Morty is the author and editor of numerous Alfred titles, including Alfred’s Basic Guitar Course, Alfred's Basic Piano Library, Alfred’s Adult Piano Course, and Essentials of Music Theory. In 2008, he received an honorary doctorate degree in music from the VanderCook College of Music in Chicago for “having made a significant contribution to the music education profession as evidenced by his outstanding creative achievements, scholarship and leadership.”

    Morty met his wife Iris when she was working for Alfred on Saturdays. Iris has worked on a full-time basis for Alfred since the late 1960s, and maintains the position of executive producer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, dont bother with the CD
Reviewed in Australia on 10 May 2020

Great book that is getting me started well on the piano. Will last me some time, although I am wanting to supplement with some easy stuff to help with sight reading too. Found the CD has too much backing music on for me to clearly hear the Piano, I much prefer to use you tube vids to check I'm playing it correctly. Would highly recommend the book for adults taking up the piano for the first time.
