The Many Benefits of Online Keyboard Lessons

If you’ve always wanted to play the keyboard, but never had the time or the money, you’ll be really interested in a new trend in lessons.

Online keyboard lessons are a great way to combine the convenience of the Internet with your goal of learning the keyboard. They are also less expensive and more user friendly than traditional lessons.

There are many benefits to online keyboard lessons. First of all, they cater to busy adults. What working adult has time to go to weekly lessons after work? Or the energy for that matter?

A weekly lesson out of the home can be a downright pain if you are a busy person, as most of us are. Arranging transportation and scheduling a set time each week are near to impossible, especially if you have a family. For these reasons most people just give up on their dream of learning the keyboard.

They offer you freedom to work when you want to. If you can squeeze in a lesson each week, great! If not, you can do them as you need to. The lessons work around your schedule, not the other way around.

Skipping a lesson is no big deal. Unless you choose to, you will not be under the instruction of a live human. The system that provides the lessons won’t mind if you have to take off a few weeks.

You can also work ahead if you want. If there is a concept or exercise that comes very easy to you, you can work on the next portion right away. You don’t have to pace yourself to a teacher’s schedule. You can work as fast as you want to.

Similarly, if you are having trouble on a specific section, you can repeat it as many times as you need to. Your lessons are totally at your own pace and your skill level increases when you want it to.

Online lessons are not only convenient but they are affordable as well! In person lessons can cost up to $50 for an hour session. Multiply that by weekly lessons and you are shelling out $200 a month.

The average rate for online programs is $20 per month or just a flat-fee of about 99 buck for an entire multimedia course. Some cost more, others cost less. But regardless, you are paying much less on a monthly basis than you do for in person lessons.

When you combine the ease of use and low price its no wonder that learning the keyboard online is so popular.

Easy guitar lesson

Major Chord Progression and Minor Chord Progression

The teacher may open the lesson by selecting well known and simple songs for students to play. The students must then write down important chord sequences found within the given song. Each student must possess firm knowledge of the name of each chords and how to fret them. Preliminary lessons on how to fret basic chords, will help facilitate learning.

After repeating the exercise with several other chord sequences, the teacher may encourage the students to analyse the data and look for patterns.

After a discussion and some prompting to help students to discover the answer for themselves, the teacher may explain that the key to a chord sequences is the name of the chord that begins the sequence. In each case, six important chords will be found within each key, three of which are major, and the other three minor.

Chords Found Within Major Keys

The chords found in each row below will always fit together, regardless of the order, but the opening chord, known as the “tonic” or “keynote chord,” denotes the name of the key. For example, in the first row shown, a chord sequence that begins with A major, may contain any of the chords within the same row in any order: Bm, Cm, D, E Fm and Am itself. Some of these chords need not necessarily be used. The result will be a chord progression that fits together well. The same applies to the chords found in the other major key chords.

Playing the electric guitar with easy guitar lessons online can be a breeze if you manage to find the right mentor. With tons of options from beginner guitar courses to guitar lesson DVD, the Internet has made easy guitar lessons online a reality. Most electric guitar players start on their guitar journey with the glorious stardom of their admired bands and guitarists. You stand in front of the mirror playing the air guitar, imitation your guitar idols. This may not be that far achieving the dream is you pick the right easy guitar lesson.

While very glamorous, playing the guitar is not as tough as it used to be because of all the new and creative teaching methods that guitar teachers utilize. While many of your guitar gods play the guitar flawlessly now, many started with traditional lessons that built the foundation. Many of the guitar gods like John Mayer and Jimi Hendrik have expended many years of their time to perfecting their guitar playing. For a start, go online and find an easy guitar lesson course or perhaps a guitar lesson DVD.

After you learnt how to play notes, chords and the rest, here are a few practice tips you can use to bring your skills up to the next level:

Master famous riffs

There are tons of very simple, but impressive sounding electric guitar riffs out there. These are great way to put your basic skills into use and develop it into something a little more advanced. A few very good guitar riffs for beginners are “Smoke On The Water” by Deep Purple, “Johnny B. Goode” by Chuck Berry and “Proud Mary” by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Practice them until you are familiar with them but at the same time, do not get too hooked up with playing them too much. Always make it a point to play a greater variety of songs to expand your skills.

Learn tons of chords!

One very often misunderstanding of the basics is that chords are just boring fundamentals. It is true that chords are one of the first things you will learn when you pick up the guitar but they are extensive and is the building block for other techniques down the road. Make sure you command mastery over as many of them as possible.

Piano Music – How to Begin and End a Piece

How do you begin a piece of music? That’s a question I’m often asked. The answer I usually give is that you begin as soon as you start playing – that is, if you’re trying to “compose” something, the piece begins the moment it has energy and is something you want to capture. If it’s an improvisation, the piece begins the moment you set your fingers on the keys and hit the first note. It’s like free flow writing and writing a chapter to a novel.

The writer can both improvise and enjoy the process or can structure the ideas more – or, as I like to do, combine both procedures into one. I start out by improvising – always. Then, if I want to memorialize a musical idea, I write down the first two bars of melody along with the chord(s) I’m playing. I throw this on a chart and voila – the idea remains fresh until I want to either expand on it, or ignore it completely.

If the idea is a rhythm pattern I write down (Left hand = whatever the pattern is) so I can remember it later. I never stop improvising though because that would stop the flow and who knows what could come out of it. Don’t forget that an improvisation is a piece of music in and of itself. There is really no need to impose structure on something as beautiful and organic as spontaneous expression. In fact, these spur of the moment fantasies are often more inspiring than any contrived composition. There is something more alive to them because there IS more life to them.

Endings pose another problem, namely the problem of when to stop playing. For improvisation, the answer is when energy (inspiration) starts to wane down. That’s a good time to bring your music to an end. You’ll know when this is happening when you become bored. That’s the sign it’s time to stop.

Composition is a different story. The form of the piece already dictates when you should stop. For example, an ABA form tells you to play the A section once or twice, go to B, back to A then bring the piece to an end. Of course the amount of repetition and contrast is a personal decision but the form establishes both beginning and ending. It’s a nice safe way to say that yes, I have a piece of music here. Now, improvisations can have form as well. The big difference is that you don’t consciously think about putting the music into a predefined shape.

But for some unknown reason, most improvisations do have symmetry – that is they take on a form of their own. I don’t know if this is because of human beings innate rhythm (heartbeat) or what.

Even Zen flute music, which may be the most freely inspired improvisation style around has some structure. You can hear it in the phrases. Beginnings and endings. Don’t worry too much about them. What’s important is where you are emotionally while you play. Become aware of that and all your problems are solved.

Piano Journeys – Create Your Own Unique Music!

Have you ever marveled at how artists can quickly
sketch out a beautiful landscape scene and convert it into a
full-fledged painting? I have and I’ve always been jealous of their
ability to do so.

I’ve often wondered why music couldn’t be more
like this. Of course composers know how to go about creating a complete
piece of music, but I didn’t want to spend years learning theory and
harmonic analysis. I didn’t want to study form and compositional
technique. Not because I was lazy or unmotivated but because there had
to be a simpler way of taking what I felt inside and turning it into a
piano improvisation or composition.

Fortunately for me, I
discovered my own unique method for quickly creating what I love to
create and that is New Age piano music.

A few chords and a Key to
play in are all I needed to begin quickly creating my own unique piano
journeys. You see the problem most aspiring composers have is that they
think they need to learn everything that was ever written about how to
compose music. This isn’t necessary and only serves to delay the
experience of jumping in the water and trying it first hand.

My
method is really simple – improvise first and let the music tell you
where it wants to go. That is, let go and allow the music to flow
through you. I ALWAYS START WITH IMPROVISASTION because this is where
the raw creative energy is. If something strikes me as particularly
nice, I’ll draw out 8-bars on a sheet of paper. It doesn’t have to be
notation paper either. I just use a blank composition journal I bought
at a Borders bookstore to do this.

After the 8-bars is drawn,
I’ll write in the first 2-bars of the melody to remember the initial
idea. I then use the chords from the Key I’m working in to complete
this small 8-bar section. Working within 8-bar sections is, I think,
the best way a beginner can actually complete a musical phrase. It’s a
very attainable goal and works very well.

Rocket Piano – Why it Stands Out From the Rest

There are so many different home study courses for piano players but the one product that truly stands out is Rocket Piano. Catering to piano players across all levels,this is a piano course that is within the reach of complete beginners, while providing tips and techniques for the experienced players as well. The 3 main reasons why Rocket Piano has succeeded where many others have struggled is down to its simplicity, great value and a credible money back guarantee.

Simplicity

Rocket Piano was made for beginners and can be used by young children as well. It teaches piano in a foolproof, step-by step manner. There are video instructions and demonstrations to help those with no experience learn how to play the piano. Because the instructions are so easy to follow, it helps to take away the initial fear of learning too. Simple games are created to inject a welcome dose of fun into learning, differing this course from the monotonous, old fashioned way of learning music.

Value for Money

The basic package comes at a very cheap $39.95. Compare that to paying around $40 an hour for a group piano class, or $100 an hour for a private instructor, Rocket Piano easily represents the best value for money. There are people who easily spend $5,000 on 50 hours of private instructor but still cannot get any good with the piano, simply because they require more time to learn compared to other people. With the course, for a small investment of $39.95 (you should invest in yourself, because if you don’t who will?), you will have all the materials you ever need to learn at your own free time.

Money Back Guarantee

The music schools do not refund you if you enrolled for their lessons and did not get to the level you wanted to. The same goes for other online piano courses that thank you for your purchase, and consider themselves free from all responsibilities with your musical education. This is especially attractive in that it offers a 60 days, no question asked, full money back guarantee. It is as good as offering you a free trial and only pay when you are satisfied. Having surveyed the marketplace, I have yet to find another piano course that can better this offer.

There is a reason why Rocket Piano has more than 20,000 happy customers who gladly endorse the product. Rocket Piano has simplified and systemized piano learning into small steps that anyone can follow. If you still find it hard to learn piano this way, at least you know that with Rocket Piano, you are making a risk free investment because you will still be entitled to a complete refund.

Play the Piano in Three Easy Steps

If you have been thinking about taking piano lessons then you should know that it can be accomplished in three easy steps. You can learn to play the piano and start playing songs by learning the notes, the scales and the chords. You only need to learn a few of these before you can actually start playing a song, and the more you learn, the more complicated songs you’ll be able to play.

Learning how to play the notes on the piano needs to be done in two steps. You need to know what all the keys are called on the piano itself and where they are located. The next thing you need to know is how to read sheet music. You will need to know what all the notes on the paper mean so that you can play them on the piano. This can be accomplished very quickly because there is a definite pattern to the whole thing. It is usually quite easy once you get the hang of it, and you will see progress very quickly.

Once you are able to understand how to read a small amount of sheet music you can begin practicing a few scales. These scales will help you learn how to position your fingers correctly when you play the paino. It will also teach you how to make your fingers flow gracefully from one note to another. As you keep practicing your scales you will build up speed and confidence and be able to make those scales sound absolutely beautiful.

The next thing you need to learn is how to make a chord. Chords involve playing more than one note at the same time to make a distinctive sound. You need to know your notes so that you can play chords. Piano chords make a piece of music sound harmonious, and once you start playing them you will get a real feel for the music you are creating. It can be tricky at first to get the chords right, and get your fingers playing the notes at the same time, when you are first starting to play the paino. Practice will make it perfect, and practice will make it seem easy in the end.

These three simple steps to lead you towards playing beautiful music. Once you grasp the basics of these three techniques everything else will seem very simple. You will be able to play more complicated music pieces as you go along, and feel confident as you play them. Find a simple course that will teach you these basics in a simple step-by-step process, and time will fly and you will be able to play the piano like an expert in no time at all.

How I Researched the Top Courses on How to Play the Piano

Are you like me? Are you trying to learn how to play the piano too? I think I’ve reviewed all of the top courses on how to play the piano out there and I’ve learned some things in the process.

First of all, you have to decide a few things. Will you find and hire a personal instructor? Have you considered just how expensive this will be? Also, what about personalities? Have you ever had another instructor, in school perhaps, where your personalities just seemed to clash? What about time? Will you be able to dedicate a routine amount of time to meet with your instructor ( and where will you meet)? At the end of the day, this option didn’t make sense for me. What about you?

So then I started looking online and literally searched for the top courses on how to play the piano. I found several interesting websites. Some of them looked like they were built in the 90′s, and some where beautifully constructed. In short order, I was able to narrow down my search to only a few websites.

One thing I noticed right away is that online courses are much less expensive than hiring a private instructor! And of course, much more convenient for my lifestyle. But I wasn’t sure which programs worked?

I decided my selection criteria would center around these big 3 necessities:

First, the course must have a Step-by-Step, systematic approach. One where each step builds upon the one before. That keeps me from going crazy! Too much info at once and it’s analysis paralysis!

Second, the course must have Video! For me, it helps so much to be able to visualize the subject being taught. Or in this case, be able to follow along on the keyboard myself while watching the movement performed in front of me.

And third, the course must have a 100% Risk-Free Guarantee. I needed that security of knowing I wasn’t getting stuck with something that just wouldn’t work for me.

Now some other items that helped me research the top courses on how to play the piano were (in no particular order) I wanted to learn quickly, at least be able to perform (maybe even show off a little!) in a short amount of time. I wanted to be able to play the electric keyboard as well as the traditional piano. Also, I wanted to eventually play by ear, or just sit down and improvise with friends.

One more thing I recommend you look for, which I discovered by accident, is a course that offers some kind of free mini-course, or sample of some kind. This is a great way to get to know your “instructor” before you invest in their program. I noticed that the top website “survivors” of my research all had a sign-up form on their website, where many of the websites I dismissed earlier did not.

These are just some of the things I would recommend you consider when comparing the top courses on how to play the piano. For even more details, check out my Lens below!

Why You Should Teach Your Child to Play Piano

There is nothing more mentally stimulating then being able to teach your child to play piano or any musical instrument. There are so many benefits to teaching them to play. There are studies that have found that children have benefited emotionally, physically and intellectually by learning to play an instrument, and more specifically the piano.

Playing the piano creates an emotional outlet for the child. No matter what the child is feeling, he is able to let it out through his music. If he is happy you will hear it in his music and if he is sad you will hear it as well. Anger may come through as a loud banging noise that sounds horrendous, but even this is good therapy for the child. You can consider the piano to be an emotional counselor for your child.

Piano lessons are also very good for your child physically. Your child will have to sit in a straight upright position for the duration of his lessons and has nothing to lean back on. This will be a reminder to him of good posture positions and may discourage him from slouching. He will also have to use his arms and fingers, and if you think that this is not exercise, then think again. The first time practicing the piano will show you how many muscles you have in your hand and fingers and you may feel very sore until you have played the piano a some more. The child will not be able to fidget during his lessons, and just having to stay still and let his fingers, hands and arms do the playing is an exercise for the child. Remember, just because something looks simple does not mean it is. Especially at different age levels.

Piano lessons will also raise your child spiritually. Children have very deep thoughts and emotional experiences that we as adults can never understand. Creating music will create a bond between the child and the piano that will hit him very deeply. Many people that play the piano talk about the value of discipline, hard work and schedule structure when they discuss the piano, but these are really secondary to the spiritual uplifting your child will experience as you teach your child to play piano.

You can teach your child to play piano at home. You do not need to go out and get a fancy instructor that will end up doing the same things that you can do. All you really need to do is download a course geared towards adults and children and you will be able to teach your child right away. By following the course outline and methods you can give your child the gift of piano music for many years to come. Take a look at some great courses that can help your child get all of the benefits listed above and many more.

Here i get you back to playing music even if you think you’ve lost it, and have begun to give up on how to play piano despite years of lesson.

It is always better to keep practicing regularly and choose your beginner piano lessons in such a way so that the complexity of the lessons increases gradually.

You should ideally be starting with some finger exercises for a few minutes, then revise the lessons which you recently learned and then move on to learn new lessons / songs. You should be able to manage all these in a 30 min slot, which is something you should be able to devote for a practice session.

Initially, you will need to plan your easy piano lessons so that you can grasp the important topics, some of which are listed below; each of these lessons build up on the earlier lessons.

Notes on piano – Getting started with the Basics
Staff, Clef, and Ledger lines – How the notes are written
Treble clef Notes
Bass clef Notes
Accidentals – Learn the Sharps and Flats
Learn about Arpeggios
Note Types / Rests – The duration of the various types
Whole Notes, Half Notes, Crotchet, Quaver, Semi-Quavers

Knowing the above topics and to be able to use them in your playing should be on your agenda for the first few months. These are the easy piano lessons which you should plan to learn at the earliest.
