A. A piano or a keyboard and some motivation.Oh, and some knowledge about the piano keyboard. If you're not familiar with the basics of the piano such as the piano keys names look up for it in the beginner piano course.
Are you now familiar with the piano keys names? Then let's go!
What's a chord really?
A Chord is a combination of at least three notes which gives us an impression of a sound.
The chords are named after the big letters of the ABC. The different Letters state the basic note of the chord and according to the symbles next to it we can tell which we should press in order to produce that specific chord we're looking for.
When we play a sequence of chords we play the HARMONY of the whole song.Later on, after we'll learn to form different chords we will talk about the rules of harmony. Or in other words, how each chord is related to the other.
In our lessons we're going to learn about chords in two levels. The intuitive level and the theoretical level.
In the intuitive level we will try to form the chords by ear according to the nature of their sounds.
In the theoretical level we will see how the chords are built in a logical manner.
Combining these two aspects is the real and ultimate way to learn to play piano chords.
In the basic piano chord lessons we're going to cover four main chord types. We'll begin with the Major Chords. Then we'll learn about the minor chords. Afterward we'll discuss the diminished chords and finally we'll talk about the augmented Chords When we're through with that we'll learn to createChord Inversions and we'll end-up with learning to read and play slash chords.
How long does it take to learn piano grade 1?
Q. I started piano four days ago, im learning by myself through internet, im learning music theory and started sheet reading practice, and i have mastered Hanon exercises 1 y 2 doing 3 hours a day.
A. Hi,
To be honest, itâs hard to get a specific time frame. Iâve had lots of students over the years and each one learns at different speeds. You need to consider these factors:
Skill Level â You need to know your skill level so you can start or continue at the proper level.
Personal Musical Aptitude â A music teacher can help you determine your skill level and aptitude.
Your Age â Learning to play the piano is easier and faster for a 12 year old than for a 35 year old. Patience and persistence can overcome many obstacles, but be realistic about your expectations.
Time Available â You need to plan a regular schedule for practice time. 20 or 30 minutes of practice five times a week is better than a single 3 hour session on Saturdays.
Realistic Goals â The amount of time you practice and a consistent schedule will determine your improvement more than anything else.
One of the drawbacks of learning on your own, without good guidance is that you tend to develop bad habits without even knowing it. The more you practice this way, the harder it will be to correct those bad habits.
If you canât afford a private teacher, then you MUST get a good course, that itâs well organized and with a step-by-step program in order to avoid developing bad habits.
A few months ago, I was reading in a keyboard magazine about a piano method with great reviews. It's a complete piano method that covers different types of music and itâs for beginners and advanced students. The price is less than the cost of one month of private lessons.
In case you're interested, thereâs some more information in the link below and also a link to a site with lots of information for beginners. Even a free e-mail course and a chord chart.
I need answer from piano teacher on how to teach a 4 year old to play piano?
Q. I'm planning to teach my daughter piano. I don't know what book to use and method? She knows all the letters, but does't read yet. Even though I play piano for years, I never had any experience to teach. I need advice on material that I need to use and method. thanks in advance!
A. If there is someone in town who is good at teaching preschool music, go for it.
See if there is someone licensed in Kindermusik.
That's a curriculum which makes music a fun and gregarious activity for preschoolers.
If that works, then you can invest in a violin if there is also a Suzuki teacher in the area.
The most important variables are patience and creativity on the part of the adult.
Here are some ideas which I have used with preschoolers:
â manipulating wooden cut-out notes
I start with quarter notes and eighth-note couplets only.
That's plenty enough for a preschool beginner.
â manipulating oversize notes
After teaching the child a song, give the child a set of cards and see if he or she can arrange them in the correct order.
I start with songs using only so and mi.
In Lois Choksy's books, there is a compilation of such songs.
That's plenty enough for a preschool beginner.

â melodic dictation
Hum so mi so so and ask the child to play it.
With only so and mi, this activity can last longer than you might expect.
If you limit the activity to 4/4 measures using only quarter notes, that gives you 16 possible rhythms.
If you add in eighth note couplets, that brings it up to 256.
Preschoolers sometimes like to reciprocate.
If the child wants to dictate measures to you, I hope you don't mind.
â measure search game
With the score for the song in front of you, play one measure from the song and ask the child to identify.
If the child wants to reverse roles, don't take it personally.
In fact, that's good, because the game lasts twice as long that way.
â rhythmic dictation
"Show me quart quart eighth-eighth quart."
Again, if the child wants to turn the tables, I hope you will be a good sport.
â transposing
Show the child where the two notes are for the two-note songs in all 12 keys.
This may bore the dickens out of an adult, but preschoolers love it.
â card games
Make a card deck consisting of 2 cards for each of the 16 possible 4/4 rhythms using quarter notes and eighth-note couplets. If that's too much to handle, use only a few cards out of the deck.
At first, a preschooler might not understand any card game except the memory game, but after a while, he or she can understand old maid and go fish.

â ostinatos
An ostinato can be very simple.
While you sing or play a bichordal song, such as Mary Had a Little Lamb or Skip to My Lou, the child can repeat the fifth note of the scale.
If the child enjoys it the first time, do it 11 more times in all the other keys.
There have been compositions written for exactly this purpose. Exploring the Piano by Alexander Tcherepnin is a good one.

â anything involving permutations
I once worked with a 3-year-old using a set of bells and a chord organ.
While I played the bells and she played the chord organ, I chanted the child's name on all 12 major chords and all 12 minor chords.
Then she asked me to do the same thing on the words "Mommy" and "Daddy."
Then she asked me to trade instruments and we performed the whole ritual all over again.
If anyone ever tells you that "preschoolers have a 5-minute attention span," remind them that the number 5 can be multiplied.
If you have at least 12 different activities, the child can last for a whole hour.
I know because I've been there and done that.
