Secrets of the Pros Piano Lesson Podcast

I have been playing and teaching piano for many years.

It is always interesting to get ideas on what playing the piano really is. Many people I come in contact with are under the impression that playing the piano means reading music.

Reading music is a form of communication. In other words, if there is a song I want you to learn, one of the ways to get this tune to you is to write the music out and give it to you. Other ways of communicating this new song idea to you are giving you a CD or tape, as well as just sitting down and teaching it to you.

Playing, on the other hand, is actually learning your instrument. This requires a lot of creativity and exploration. Watching other pianists or keyboardists perform, learning tunes by ear, learning all of the theory you can, and just researching all you can about the piano or keyboard are ways to improve your playing.

There are many other ways also. You are only limited by your imagination.

My new podcast is going to be a series of piano lessons that deal with all aspects of professional playing.

This podcast will be for all levels from the absolute beginner to the pro. New episodes should be coming out frequently so please be sure to subscribe.

The first episode deals with finding and identifying the notes on the piano and learning three basic chords.

Other episodes coming will deal with learning chords, bass lines, playing in different keys, and much more.
