Category: Piano & Keyboard
Description: Another factor in developing good piano (more...) fingering skills involves being able to play without always relying on looking at your fingers. In fact, in order to read music notation (which we won't be doing right now), your eyes will constantly be focused away from your hands. So what we're going to do here today is learn my own 'simplified' method of sight-reading. And there's only so much we can cover in this brief video lesson. So for complete details check out the online version of this piano exercise: http://www.get-piano-lessons.com/beginner-lessons-for-piano.html (less)

Category: Piano & Keyboard
Description: As they say with any exercise, it's 'No (more...) Pain No Gain'. And piano exercises are no different. So now we'll step it up a notch by practicing one more 15-note finger pattern both forward and backwards. Next, it's time to take the training wheels off and add a little speed and more notes with my very own 'Finger Jujitsu' invention! Don't worry, it's just a very tricky piano fingering chart that I like to call: 'The Tongue Twister'. Don't rush this lesson coz it's a little harder than it looks!

Description: If you're left-handed, this next piano (more...) lesson should be a breeze! Now that we've played our first five piano notes using our right hand, it's time to learn the NEXT five notes you should learn on the piano using your left hand. Still nothing too fancy at this point, although I did feel a slight urge to begin the lesson with one of my favorite Chopin tunes.

Get Piano Lesson 6 (Part One) Left Hand Finger Patterns
Produced By:

Category: Piano & Keyboard
Description: When it comes to piano playing, it's (more...) important to make sure your left hand is getting just as much practice as your right hand. The reason for this is because the right hand usually takes the lead and performs most of the work in many piano compositions. This can leave your left hand with alot less practice than your right hand. But in lesson six, we're not going to allow that to happen! We've got plenty of finger exercises to practice and perform with our left hand. And as they say, practice makes perfect, so we're going to play these exercises both forward and backwards to make sure we're getting a good work out!
