Q. Is there some sort of system to learning piano chords or is it all just memorization?
A. There's a system behind all chords, not just piano chords. Get a book on harmony and music theory to find out about it, because its too big a subjeect to discuss here.
Any suggestions on good books to help a beginner learn Piano Chords?
Q. Ok, got a nice Keyboard, picked up "Piano for Dummies" but rather than learn and play individual notes
I heard you can learn and play Piano Chords like you would on a guitar instead of all individual notes, . If I don't have any success playing individual notes can someone suggest a good book that shows you how to play Piano chords? Thanks in advance
A. Hey....lame as it may sound....a good way to learn piano is to get a hymn book....whether you're religious or not... If you can work your way through a hymn book you can learn piano. That is how I taught myself. I started when I was like 12 and went from there to playing very advanced pieces...
Now I even compose my own music. Hymn books are usually pretty simple but they are also very varied. Give one a try! You could probably find one second-hand at a thrift store somewhere for only a dollar or two!
Good luck!
Is there an easy way to learn piano chords by ear?
Q. Is there an easy way to learn piano chords by ear? how should i go about doing this
A. If you know where "middle C" is, then place your right thumb on middle C. Think of your thumb as Finger #1, then your pointer finger as #2, etc.
Then play Fingers 1, 3, & 5 together. There's your C chord.
Now try placing your thumb on an F, then a G, with the same 3 fingers.
Good way to start.
And the best way to play by ear: if it sounds wrong, keep trying different notes until it sounds correct.
