Hey students, Just wanted to let you know that there is a Spring Sale going on right now for the courses over on my website www.pianolessonsontheweb.com . You can learn much more about piano, music theory, ear training and anything else you need to become a well rounded musician. You can use code "youtube" during checkout for an additional 15% off!
Enjoying your videos a lot. When it comes to Intervals, here is how I quickly identify if the interval is odd or even…I use, reverse images, for example, a third, EG or FA look nice and even, because they are stacked the same, therefore they are ODD…….CD or FG are odd (not line/line or space/space), therefore they are EVEN. I know this sounds weird, but when I see two notes line to line or space to space, they are “evenly” stacked, therefore they are ODD, and of course the opposite….seeing notes stacked on lines and spaces, looks odd and therefore EVEN. Please don’t thank me for confusing you.
Do you know of any method or exercises to practice sight reading (or at least "fast reading")? I can read, i.e. I know the notes, signatures, keys, symbols, etc... but almost as if I could only read "word by word" of a text, and not a sentence or a paragraph on the spot (and that makes me a "functional illiterate" in music). Most of the time it's easier and faster for me to pick the chords/notes by ear (if I do have the music recorded); and to read it just to check if I picked them right or if I'm not picking a particular sound. But I know this is quite of a flaw...
Very Interesting your explanation Never thought this way, looking your counting way, at 15:28 you label the notes C E C E E (e=3rd, C is on same space as first C is it a C the Same?) or is it a G which is 4th from the 2nd E? Then you have an E which is a 3rd from C but on the staff it looks a 4th, which should be an F? Just looking at your drawing and interpreting off your explanation, am I right or wrong, if I am wrong please tell me where I have misunderstood please?
Hi, I have a question for you. I'm self-styled CLASSICAL piano player. Now, in the classical piano universe they hold the opinion, that you ONLY KNOW a piece(Chopin, Mendelssohn, Rachmaninov whatever) if you are able TO WRITE THE SCORE DOWN......NOTE FOR NOTE WITH ALL THE ACCIDENTALS, PAUSES etc...I'M NOT KIDDING!!! Now, I'm absolutely NOT against this philosophy....BUT...what AI most certainly will NOT do, is to grab a pen and a blanket music sheet and start writing a score down. And so my question is: IS THERE A SITE ON THE INTERNET WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO WRITE AN PRACTICE WITH BLANKET SHEETS(kind a like a game noh). Cause in that case, I'm more than willing to follow this suggestion and start practicing ALL my pieces.....BUT AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER.........NO WAY!!!!!
Attention Students! I highly recommend you check out this lesson next. It is the PERFECT lesson to watch after this one. (Mistakes You are Making Reading Music) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zV6mG9NcQR8.htmlsi=oUv2gKMoLslowFGx
Glad I took the time...well worth watching. I was trying to play music the other day that had notes below the treble clef that looked like two whole note C's and I wasn't sure what the note(s) would be. I guessed I assumed that any notes other than D, C & B would just be placed within the bass clef.
Hi, great video you play a piece of music with finger numbers. What is the name of the piece of music and where can I find a PDF? Book or sheet music of it. Thanks
