Why RIAM Books Matter
RIAM materials aren’t about shortcuts or gimmicks. They’re designed to build real musical understanding, step by step, in a way that sticks.
They help students:
- Learn to read music confidently
- Develop proper technique
- Build rhythm, timing and musical awareness
- Prepare for graded exams
- Progress with clarity
For teachers and parents, they offer structure and reassurance. For students, they provide clarity and momentum. That’s why RIAM books remain a cornerstone of music education across Ireland.
Let’s Get Reading – Where Music Literacy Begins
One of the most important arrivals in this delivery is the Let’s Get Reading series.
This range is designed specifically to tackle one of the biggest hurdles for beginners: learning to read music fluently. Rather than treating notation as an afterthought, these books make it the focus — gently, clearly and musically.
The Let’s Get Reading books are ideal for:
- Young beginners
- Adult learners starting from scratch
- Students who play by ear but want stronger reading skills
They break music reading into manageable steps, reinforcing confidence early and preventing the frustration that often causes learners to stall. If reading music feels mysterious or intimidating, this series makes it feel achievable — even enjoyable.

Music Workout – Build Skills Through Practice
The Music Workout series is all about consistency and improvement.
These books focus on strengthening the core skills every musician needs: rhythm, coordination, technique, and musical control. Think of them as a gym session for your playing, designed to complement lessons and repertoire rather than replace them.
They’re especially useful for:
- Students preparing for RIAM exams
- Learners who want more structured practice
- Teachers looking for reliable supplementary material
Short, focused exercises help turn practice time into real progress — exactly what most learners are craving.

2026 Piano Albums – Essential Repertoire for the Year Ahead

These albums are essential for students preparing for RIAM piano exams in 2026, offering carefully selected repertoire that balances musicality, technique and stylistic awareness. They’re not just exam tools; they’re collections of pieces that genuinely develop a player’s expression and confidence.
Whether you’re a student, teacher or parent planning ahead, having the correct RIAM 2026 piano books is crucial — and we’ve got them ready to go.
