Where can I listen to piano chords on the computer?

Q. For example, the computer plays a chord, and then I try to name all the notes in the chord. Is there a software/online program that's like this?

A. http://www.mhhe.com/et7

On this site, you can see ear training exercises and download the mp3's so that you can practice with them. Some of the earlier exercises may not be what you are looking for, but scroll through and you should find some with chords. Even if the exercise isn't meant specifically for you to name each note of the chord, there are several which play chords for you. And the chords are written out in the PDF's (that you can download) so you can check your answers.

Hope this helps you!!! :)

How to turn piano music sheet into guitar tab?
Q. is it possible? on the piano music sheet there are two measures which im guessing one is for one hand and the bottom one is for the other hand but how can i make this work into tablature for guitar?

A. I would download Guitar Pro, preferably version 5.

It's a little time consuming but you can put the notes in the staff and then view it so you can view the tablature. You can print it and have only the TAB appear on the sheet.

hope that helps, message me if you're confused.

you can also insert chords for guitar.

Original Question

Is there a way to make normal piano sheet music into finger picking guitar tab?
Q. I want to play a song that I only have piano sheet music for. I want to play it by myself on my guitar and just playing the melody on one string at a time I was wondering if there is a way for me to put some bass notes and stuff in to make a nice finger picking song. So is there a way?

A. Yes you can!

The first question that comes to mind is do you know the notes and where they are located on your fret board?

Such as the the 2 spots you can play your middle C?

A good understanding of the different scale patterns and correspoding modes will help also. This will help you maintain a clean counterpoint and stay in "position" for the melody (would not recomend a one string approach for the melody)

Also remember that piano music is actually and octave below what guitar notes are written. So keep that in mind -- example the middle C on piano music is actually the high C (the C on the 3rd line of the staff).

Another thing to look for when transposing piano to puitar is to remember that the piano uses alot more notes (you have 10 fingers for the piano but only 5 for your fret board) so keep a look out for unnecessary passing tones or added notes to the basic chords (your add4, sus's, b13's, #9's) that is more piano oriented and those are usually passing tones that sound good with a piano but horrible on a guitar.

Just focus on the melody then look at the bass line of the piano score to find out the best bass notes to use. Try to stick with the root notes at first but you can look into using the counterpoint rythym to add the 7ths etc of the chords.

Time consuming but definately fun!

You can also try downloading Power Tab. It will allow you to place the notes (both melody and bass lines) in standard notation form (point and click) and it will show a tabbed version as you enter in the information. Also hs a MIDI capable playback so you can get an idea if what you are writing "sounds" correct.

good luck!
