Pianist magazine Reviews

by Sam Waton

I would call this a ripoff, but I don't think it's their intention to take money for nothing; they just didn't bother to make it work, and then do nothing to fix it. The magazines don't download. One of the other reviews says it takes days; I admit I haven't waited that long, and don't plan to. I requested help a year or so ago and never got a response. Take the money and run appears to be the plan.

How dumb can an app be? This new version of the Pianist does not recognize that the previous version exists on the iPad nor any of the previous downloaded issues with all their media. So you have to download again and delete the previous versions separately! There are no instructions suggesting any other way! Pianist, you can do better!

After downloading Pianistmagazine , paid the subscription, Pianistmagazine doesn't open!!! What am I paying for? Wasted $38 bucks!!!

I downloaded it and when I tried to open it in newsstand all that came up was the word "Pianist" in black letters with a white background. I couldn't do anything so I'm not sure if it's something on my part or if something's wrong with the new version.

I like it once it is in my iPad, but the download speed per issue is dreadful. If I want to open an issue over the weekend, I better make sure to start downloading by Tuesday to make sure I have it by Saturday. And while the issue is being downloaded, forget using the iPad for anything else. I do not know if it is an Apple issue or a Pianist issue, but none of the other apps take this long to download, even when they are twice or thrice the size.

Slowest downloads of any app I’ve ever used. But if you can get it, the content is great.

Despite that hassle, I do wish they would offer a back-issue bundle purchase. I would buy them all (and then spend the rest of my life downloading, lol.

I love this mag|app, aimed at classical piano students at all levels. I no longer take "live: lessons, so I greatly enjoy lessons in this magazine.

I am an adult piano student. Discovering this magazine has been a real find. I enjoy this interactive magazine chockfull of helpful and entertaining articles on practice techniques, interesting interviews of accomplished pianists and music pieces for all levels with instructional guidance. Extremely well done!

I find each issue to contain a wide range of information - the tips and lessons are all very helpful, and the included sheet music always pleases.

I used to pick up a copy of Pianist at the book store. Now I get it on my iPad Pro. It is an awesome mag/app. Love the links and I watch a lot of their lessons on you tube. I'm a beginner-intermediate senior player. There is just enough levels spread for everyone.

I have enjoyed this digital magazine for several years and have found it to be a valuable resource. There is still material beyond my skill level, but it will thus continue to provide me material to use as I progress. Thanks to all the people who make this magazine possible!

Pianistmagazine is very stable. The magazine is inspiring and well written for pretty much all levels. Having the audio to listen to the scores is a really wonderful feature. I have no complaints at all and highly recommend it.

Wonderful magazine. Video lessons are excellent. full of scores. One of the main reasons to get Pianist magazine is to get and play the sheet music. Unfortunately, there is no way to print the scores from the iOs device. Unless you can read and play from an iPad,you might want to get the paper magazine instead. Of course, you can find many classical scores elsewhere.

It’s the only active magazine. It continues to inspire me and education is priceless, especially as an adult student.

by Mickeykes

Pianist is always inspiring, frequently just fun, and almost as educational as private lessons. Five stars.

If only Apple would include this magazine on their News+ app subscription. I would definitely keep my subscription, after the trial period.

by Stuart Wilder

This magazine has lots of great music for all abilities. I love that the subscription includes the ability to download back issues too

Pianistmagazine is incredible! I enjoy reading the articles but enjoy the teaching and new music at the back end of each issue, i highly recommend it for students and teachers.
