Q. You know how, for example, if the key is in C major certain notes sound good together? Can you give me the notes that sound good together for all the keys? And also can you give me how to tell by the sharped and flatted notes which one is which key?
I'll take a website if you don't feel like explaining it. Thanks!
A. There are a lot of them.
They're known as chords, and this site shows a chart with many.
how easy is it to play the ukulele?
Q. i would like to self teach my self to play the ukulele, and i have already had 8 years of piano.
how hard would it be?
where could i get a used one thats desent?
also if a certin song is with one type of ukulele can it sound just as good with another?
A. Sarah B,
It's really easy to learn to play the ukulele. B/c you play the piano it'll be that much easier b/c you already have finger dexterity.
But, don't get a used ukulele, unless you know what you're looking for. You have to watch out for cracks in the body, warped neck, bad tuners, high frets, etc. Best to go with a new one b/c they're not all that expensive. Not like buying a piano. ;D Anyway, check out a Lanikai LU-21C or 21T. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/navigation/lanikai-ukuleles?N=100001+202826&Ntk=All&Ntt=ukulele&Nty=1 The concert or tenor will work well for you b/c the frets are wider and you're accustomed to stretching your fingers across the keys of a piano. A soprano will work b/c, like I said, you have the finger dexterity but I think you'll like a concert or tenor more. You won't have to cramp your fingers when chording and they also give you a fuller deeper tone b/c their body is bigger.
You can find lessons and chord charts all over the web. Here's a few of my fav.

Easy way to learn to play the piano for absolute beginners?
Q. I want to learn how to play the office theme, yet I know nothing about the piano. I can read music pretty well (I play Trumpet in 7th-8th grade band) Is there a site or video on Youtube that can teach me super slow and easy. I have tried some videos but I cannot tell because I have no clue where the keys are. Please help>
A. I think thereâs two options for you:
- Learn the chords for piano. Hereâs a good web sites for that: http://www.looknohands.com/chordhouse/piano/
http://www.8notes.com/piano_chord_chart/
- The other way itâs to use the MIDIs. MIDI itâs like a digital score. Hereâs the steps for that:
1- Search the WEB for the song you like to learn in http://www.midisite.co.uk/
2- Open the file in this software: âSweet Sixteen MIDI Sequencer 3.3.2â that you can download free in http://www.ronimusic.com/download.htm#DL_SWEET_16
3- After that, go to the âGridâ section and youâll see all the notes you need to play for that song displayed in a keyboard inside of the software. All you have to do its repeat the notes displayed.
I learn to play piano like this on my on. You should try it.
