Studied piano from age 6 to age 16. My piano teacher made me do scales (2 octaves left and right hand together). She taught me correct finger position and technique. Then I learned music theory, which I hated but which allows me to see the general structure of a song much faster. Lastly, she had me playing all kinds of music, not just what I liked and not just what was easy. Biggest tip of all - practice EVERY WEEKDAY, even if only for 15 minutes, even when you don't feel like it. Plan to perform for someone, because performance will show you your weaknesses (other people will immediately notice). Cheers!

​@@aBachwardsfellow Bro, the level cautiousness XD. To me beginner is a person at the early stage of some kind of activity, so If they know what they are doing they are no longer perceived by me as a beginner. The first step for beginners though is to collect all the necessary information which includes fundamentals, best practices and pitfalls. Second step is to organize retrieved data in a modular form and take down each module by practicing regularly with the primary focus on finishing the module, rather then "mi practice 15 mins a day mi becom better". Practice isn't beneficial without knowledge unless you want to practice non-sense. Practice undoubtedly is necessary, but it works under certain circumstances that often aren't present in the context of "practice more" advise

​@@mykytamykulskyi4462 ok -- I understand. There are certainly numerous ways to approach learning how to play the piano -- including yours, as you so well presented above. I approach teaching somewhat differently with beginners, following more along the lines of Suzuki -- learning to play the piano and music by imitation. In my first lesson with a beginning student, I teach them the following: - proper orientation to the piano: seat height and distance from the keyboard, posture, and hand position - finger independence -- learning to play each finger correctly - each hand alone - C major root position triads -- broken and blocked, each hand alone, and hands together -- broken in one hand and blocked in the other, then switch - C major scale - one octave, each hand alone, They will then practice those things for the following week. So while they definitely "know what they are doing" with the assigned material, they are still -- to my thinking -- very much a beginner. Note, however, that they are already learning theory -- root position triads, and scales -- by playing them. This makes it much easier to begin the specific theory conversations about half steps, whole steps, and intervals later on since they have already been playing them and know them in that sense. It is entirely unnecessary to attempt to discuss these initially and only clutters up things and adds confusion. Following your description of a module -- " ... collect all the necessary information which includes fundamentals, best practices and pitfalls ... " .-- it would seem that I have constructed and organized the first module for them " ... organize ... in a modular form and take down each module by practicing regularly with the primary focus on finishing the module, rather then 'mi practice 15 mins a day mi becom better'. To my thinking, they have sufficient understanding of what we covered (i.e. a "module") to be able to practice it 15 minutes (or -- preferably two 15-minute sessions) each day. It does not seem necessary to me to have the student " ... collect all the necessary information which includes fundamentals, best practices and pitfalls ... " before beginning to practice. That is my job as a teacher. And the "modules" I construct are tailored to the abilities, needs, and preferences of each student, so again, it does not seem necessary to me to " ... collect all the necessary information which includes fundamentals, best practices and pitfalls ... " before beginning with lessons. My goal for the first week is to have them become as proficient as possible with that material -- and that's actually quite a bit for the first week. Assuming they acquire a fair proficiency with that material, I will build on it (i.e. the second "module") to have them play all root position triads in C major (i.e. C, d, e, F, G, a, b dim) - broken and blocked, each hand alone, and hands together -- broken in one hand and blocked in the other, then switch -- both with eyes open, and eyes closed), and the C major scale hands together, one octave, in contrary motion. Does that seem to make sense for a "beginner" to ' ... mi practice 15 mins a day mi becom better'. ?

Reading music 3 years ago was a slow, slow, grueling process. I learned to read music before I jumped into buying my first instrument, the piano keyboard. I learned to read using "See Sally run" books when I was in 1st grade. I learned to read music by just going slow and using, "see the music notes" (flash cards). Now, I play the guitar (8 weeks now) and the piano keyboard (3 years). I have a better understanding of the language and theory. My reading is much faster now and I no longer have to memorize a song to play it (I didn't say fast (smile)). Well, on the piano but I'm still a total newbie on the guitar so I'm back to real slow when it comes to playing (chuckles). I became one of Zach's superhuman followers due to Zach's inspiring wisdom, amicable presentations and total commitment to his audience. I highly recommend Zach's teaching methods. Thanks for being such a great coach.

Practice left hand first probably comes from the idea that is his you read music (bottom to top, stacking) and gives you foundation to build melody on top. Is prefer to say, practice most difficult part first. That will always take longer, whether left or right or a small section. Some pieces begin easy, and get more difficult, and ppl spend hours on the easy bits and lose hope when they get to the difficult stuff. Build the basics then use them. My 2 cents worth. 'Weak pinkie' applies to almost any fingers we not used to using in that way, so build up strength (in your whole arm, to move those fingers, while body, sitting correctly, etc) , use wrist rotation and hand arm weight and use the movement of your hands to guide you in the direction the music is going. All these little things take time to develope, but keep at it and you will be pleasantly surprised what you can achieve. Memorising chords or anything without a purpose is useless, it is far better to understand how each is made and constructed. Learn the basic building blocks of what a chord, then you apply the same method to everyone. Yes, there are things that come up more often than others. Learning construction of one that can be applied is easier and better than memorising 20 separate random chords. 😊 good luck ❤

@@koenignero Um, actually no King Nero, he's right (depending on the song). As a musician and music teacher I know that most pop songs are based on a formulaic structure of 4 main chords. Playing those 4 chords in the right order on a piano gives you the structure that all of Western harmony is based upon. You show your ignorance by comparing it to playing the drums by tapping your feet, or perhaps you are classically trained on piano, but know little about theory.

Me and a friend started learning piano about a month ago. I followed an app which has built me up from the basics and that, whilst he just watches "how to play" this videos. In the first couple of weeks I'm here playing When The Saints Go Marching In whilst he's sending me a video of him playing a Coldplay song. Fast forward to two weeks later where he's still googling songs and taking a day to learn it, but you can put any simple song in front of me and I can play it straight away. It was an eye opener for me what a tortoise and hare situation learning an instrument is.

first you have to learn the right hand, then the left and then all together so you memorize the parts well, and it's easier. But it is very important to PRACTICE with separate hands because if you do it with hands together, the 2 hands "merge" and the piece is easily forgotten. if we do it separately then the parts remain imprinted in our minds and we forget it after a long time.

Ok, not sure if this is a good reason for the Left hand-Right hand thing, but I'm left handed naturally and STRUGGLE adding the left in. My guess is that the left usually has less movement/changes to chords so its easier to learn? where as the Right has constant or multiple changes that are more difficult to master (usually the first place to start for beginners - like me), when compiling together it makes it alot more difficult.

I want to know the answer to ‘why you have to learn left hand before right hand’? Is it maybe to drill in the ‘beat’ first?
@beeankha
@beeankha 8 ай бұрын
You may be correct about the beat part. Since the right hand is doing the melody, you might drill in a bad habit accidentally (but if you use a metronome, maybe not). It could also be because the left-hand is essentially chords, it makes it easier to read/memorise the melody because the notes will be in the same chord/key (usually). Another reason might be this: as a right-handed person, I think learning the left-hand first makes it easier for when you go to do hands-together. My right hand learns faster than my left, so it makes sense to start with the harder hand first so it's easier to stay motivated. Maybe all these are good reasons to start with the left-hand first.
@becomeapianosuperhuman6765
@becomeapianosuperhuman6765 8 ай бұрын
That's part of it! When you get the left hand down it's easier to "fit in" the right hand to the left hand since it'll line up with the beat. The other thing is MOST students find the right hand to be easier (especially if they're right handed) so it's best to start with the left hand when you're more fresh

Cool info. Don't agree with most pop(ular) songs having 4 chords repeating, tho. Some do, sure. But some at least change the four chords for verse and chorus, or have a small bridge adding another chord a few times in the song. So yeah, while you can play the chorus of most pop songs with four chords, you cannot play most pop songs with four chords - the ones repeating one pattern over and over aren't the majority. They're becoming more numerous, tho.

@@suryakantbiswal5091 Here are some pieces that have the melody in the left hand: Chopin: Prelude op. 28 no. 6 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3jbonWNrcqql6s&ab_channel=AssociazioneMendelssohn Schumann : The Happy Farmer kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaXIdXx9rrBrgNU&ab_channel=ahang1001 Peter Maxwell Davies: Yesnaby Ground kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqOYgYiKmtZ4bdU&ab_channel=SirPeterMaxwellDavies-Topic Yesnaby Ground is different because even though the right hand has the main tune, the left hand accompaniment has its own tune as well See also C.P.E.

I need serious work on my left hand. I'm struggling to coordinate it. I know it varies for everyone but it'd be nice if you could put "reasonable" time span expectations in a video, for example "if you practice this over and over for 5 minutes a day it should come naturally in 2 months" or if you do this for an hour a day you should notice real progress in just a week". Is an hour a day too much practice on one particular exercise? Should I do 20 minutes in the morning, take a break, 20 minutes again after work? I feel like I'm that awkward pupil that just won't "get it"

It's definitely better to have several 15-20 minute sessions than one hour-long session, and to really focus on specific things in each session. So yes -- do 20 minutes in the morning, take a break, 20 minutes again after work, like that.

The thing about chords needed might apply to pop songs, but I would get bored pretty fast playing the same simple chords. I would think learning how chords are formed is an essential skill if you want to play something more complicated than the popular hit songs. The theory behind forming chords is simple and you can then throw you chord charts away. You don't even need to check jazz songs. I just checked my Beatles book and opened pages randomly and almost on every page there were 7th, sus, 6th or slash chords and I would think them as a pop band of their time. There are lots of other bands, but I thought Beatles was a good example since they have a lots of simple songs that people know.

Please DO NOT use the “over under” technique, it’s ironically a really bad habit. Yes, the notes you play with your pinkie may sound stronger, but you’ll notice that when you play notes with your wrist down, they sound heavier and you won’t be able to move your hand as quickly across the piano. You may not notice at first, but it will massively affect your playing later on. Instead, make sure to keep your wrist flat. You can practice this by playing scales (one octave will do) while balancing a small coin on your wrist. You should also play on the tips of your fingers; this strengthens the sound overall while maintaining your correct wrist posture. Speaking of posture, make sure to keep your back straight. When playing, your elbows should be pointing out to the sides, as if there’s someone annoying next to you and you’re ready to give them a good shove. This is because a lot of your movement is going to come from your elbows. When combining all these things, you will find that you will be able to easily play notes with your pinkie: your wrist and elbow should be doing most of the moving while maintaining a proper position. Make sure to stay on the tips of the fingers. It’s annoying, but it’s incredibly important. There are times when you will need to use the “under over” technique, but this is usually used when controlling dynamics (the volume). It is NOT for reaching notes with your pinkie. Happy playing!

If you would offer a normal monthly subscription for about $15 not more or $99.- year.. you would have much more clients instead to ask for almost 1000$ one time payment and webinars which repeats 1000 times to buy this. If you can’t offer a service für this condition, i may really think there is something wrong. Anyway good luck 🍀
