ONLINE -one night workshop

Have you ever wanted to learn the piano but couldn’t find the time?

In just a few hours, you can learn enough secrets of the trade to give you years of musical enjoyment. Learn to play piano the way professionals do—using chords. Since this class is being held online using Zoom, you will be able to sit at your piano or keyboard at home and take this course with no pressure at all. And since the class includes an online book and online follow-up video lessons, you will be able to continue your practice and study on your own. An optional online question/answer session and a recording of the class are included as well. The course is partly lecture/demonstration and partly hands-on instruction. Topics include: how chords work in a song, how to get more out of sheet music by reading less of it, how to form the three main types of chords, how to handle different keys and time signatures, how to avoid “counting,” and how to simplify over 12,000 complex chords. Class limited to 15 students.
