This was great. I've had 2 music teachers as an adult who never focused on theory which made me feel lost. I've always been able to recognize & play notes individually (seeing the trees but not the forest), but never understanding how a piece of music is "built" or recognizing patterns. I have a feeling I need to learn my scales to understand patterns in the piece.

@PianoFromScratch 2 года назад

Yes it really helps you keep track of where the notes come from and how they ove around, gives you something to latch onto. Good luck!

I love the way the keyboard lit up the E major scale. That is exactly what I think needs to happen in your mind when playing a particular scale so that you can basically switch to any major scale in the other 11 keys, not to mention minor scales and others such as the melodic or harmonic minor and modes. Out of those 7 notes there are so many chords you can get which go beyond basic. Takes time and practice to get them under your fingers but well worth it. Great video.

hi.thanks for Excellent tips. i have question about speed of piano scales. How fast should we reach for scales ( i mean The highest tempo required for a piano scales for beginner levels grade 1 or 2 ) than learn the next scales?? . i figure out need a lot of time to reach 144 bpm eighth note for scales in level 1 or 2. sorry for bad english

@aprillroberts 3 года назад

Hi I’ve just brought a keyboard and wondered if you could tell me which order of your videos I need to learn from scratch ,thank you 👍

@PianoFromScratch 3 года назад

Hi April, it's tough to lay things out on youtube in the order you would, say on a course or in real life but if you're just getting started - The 'how to start playing' video covers some basic technique and exercises to get your fingers moving, then perhaps starting the C major scale would be a good next step to teach how how to start coordinating your hands together. Of course there's the videos on naming notes to tackle at the start if you haven't done that yet. Then you can perhaps start working through a couple more scales, looking at some of the chord playing and some theory on intervals and building chords to get going. Also, try and find some beginner material to actually start playing real music soon too! There's the alfred book a lot of self learners use and I put a review of that up too

@aprillroberts 3 года назад

@@PianoFromScratch Thank you so very much for replying so quickly ( I’m chomping at the bit to get started ) During this continued lockdown I’m determined and excited about learning to play. I’m very impressed with your way of teaching ( I don’t want to pick up any bad habitats) I’ll plough through your teachings Take care of yourself, stay safe and thank you for continued support 👍

@harinte6161 3 года назад

So the question that has been bothering me is if the major scale is the happy scale and in will sound basiclly the same on each key, cant I just make every song in the c major scale. Or to the other key bring out something else. I hope I made my self clear.

@PianoFromScratch 3 года назад

Good question. Playing in other keys affects the music because of the range of the notes and in turn the timbre and texture. If you play a song in C major and then move up a tone to D major, everything moves up together so the pattern sounds the same, yet everything is higher up. A particular song may sit nicer on certain instruments in a particular key (of course this is partly subjective too). Also, players sometimes have preferences of keys for certain kinds of music because of the above as well as the physicality of playing in certain keys - they may be more comfortable with what they can do in some keys. And a reason why you may need to change a key is if a singer can't sing high (or low) enough.

@harinte6161 3 года назад

@@PianoFromScratch Thank you for this answer. So really music is just a vibe and the more you try out for yourself youll realize what you lika and not. Keys, scales , chords rythm etc. At least this is what I am coming to understand in my piano learning. Love the videos.

@AwkwardFX Год назад

Should I learn to play scales with both hands or one hand at a time?

@PianoFromScratch Год назад

If you're a beginner, it's usually best to learn each hand separately before putting the together.

@theveryfirst Год назад

At last. Someone is explaining this for me.

@giftofthegab2888 4 года назад

Okay. I’m gonna go learn my scales now....

@PianoFromScratch 4 года назад

Haha. You don't have to learn them all straight away, just build up your bank of them over time alongside other things. I'll be doing some specific scale tutorials starting with C Major in the coming days so keep an eye out for that if you haven't started yet?
