Do you drummers feel that playing another instrument help you become a better drummer?

Q. For me, I fell like playing another instrument helps me understand chord changes and other aspects of music theory that I do not learn form playing drums.
Think about this more in the contexts of a song. Now that I play piano and drums I understand the song's structure more than just beats and fills.

A. It could, my favorite drummer knows Piano as well, not sure if it helped him but, he knows the Piano, but, i dont know what else to learn, i dont have the fingers for a guitar, but i like vocals, screaming though, but i suck at that too, i want to learn how to scream

Original Question

How do I change chords on the piano more smoothly?
Q. I've recently begun trying to learn the piano, and I've run into the problem that I can't change from chord to chord fast enough, especially when completely changing the hand arrangement. I was wondering if anyone had a technique to changing chords more smoothly?

A. In addition to using the pedal, as Wayne suggests, it'll help to know all inversions of your chords. There will always be an inversion of the next chord nearby to help with a smooth transition. For example: If you're playing C (C-E-G) and want to go to F (F-A-C), playing that F chord in second inversion puts it closer to the C chord (C-F-A). So now, the C stays the same, the E goes up one to F, the G goes up one to A. That's a simple example, but shows how knowing inversions will help with smooth chord changes.

Original Question

What piano chords make a good lullaby song?
Q. I am trying to write a song and am wondering if anyone knew chords that produced that sleepy wonderful sound. Thanks so much!

A. Well, you'd have to choose a scale first, a good scale would be G major or C major. In G major, whenever you play "C" or "F", you change the not to a sharp. Some chords you could use include G, B, D, or C, E, G (the most simple chord), but you should experiement different key combinations.

Good lullaby chords usually use three keys each spread out by one note.
