Udemy Children/Adult Easy Introduction to Piano

Udemy Children/Adult Easy Introduction to Piano

Delighted to share with you my experience and introduction to the piano, and weird and wonderful world of music. I hope this will be the start of a life long love affair that will no doubt infuriate you at times, but will also give you many hours of enjoyment. I start from the very start (with middle C on the piano) and assume absolutely no prior experience of the piano.

This may be good for those playing before and need an elementary course to cover the basics and get you back on track. All material is shown on screen as we play for you to follow and play along. Be sure to master each level before moving to the next. By the end of the course you will be able to read the ten notes of each finger, with thumbs on middle C (from F below middle C to G above middle C), and have a good foundation in reading music, including note pitches, values and rests. For younger children learning (maybe 8 and under) I would recommend an adult supervising, and perhaps learning too. Adults and teenagers will go through the sessions faster, but with busy schedules are too often short on time, so its important to be purposeful with regular practice. It doesn't need to be long - just 10/15mins a day at this stage. As with all things - practice makes perfect!!!!
