This was really helpful thanks, one song I'd like you to check out because I think you'd really like it, not necessarily for a tutorial. Amy Wadge - Faith's song. Thanks let me know what you think!

This is the best video I've found (and I've looked at many) that beginners can understand about piano accompaniment! Even though you make it easy to understand, it will take quite a bit of practice to be comfortable with all of the material!!!

[@reginapenner8566]

Hi! Thank you so much! This was exaclty what I was looking far, especially the 5th and 6th way. Cos everyone keeps saying something like " I just play anything, I just add something, very basic and easy" haha lol but if you are not familiar with it you cant play it too haha. Would love to see more accompaniment instructions like this!

[@dzu86]

Same here, glad i found this video. Can we have video talk about this more please?

[@ronsullivan132]

FINALLY, a video that show things in a concise and easy to follow manner. This is exactly at my level right now and is just the thing I have been searching for, for months now. Only one thing that would make the video even better would be to use the software that generates a second keyboard above the one being played, with the keys colored as they are being played. Now how about a video that is entry level like this one but demonstrates some chords that use one or two black keys? Thanks for the work you do making these videos!

[@BitesizePiano]

Glad it’s helped, though I’m afraid I’ll never use the light up keys. That’s not how anyone learns how to play the piano, and unfortunately it’s made self-taught pianists really reliant on it.

[@ronsullivan132]

@@BitesizePiano I am not a fan of the scrolling notes that come down at all, I just like to have a better view of just what is being played. But like everything, do it enough and it becomes second nature.

[@jezusowy6716]

A very useful lesson. Could you please do even deeper teaching on accompaniment and sort of breakdown and give examples that you use when you play. I mean the patterns you use. Let's say you play a 4/4 piece and you play with two fingers in the left hand at the beginning, which patterns do you use for the right hand. Then you play with three fingers in your left hand and what patterns do you use for your right hand. Because when I play, it turns out chaotic for me and everything blends together. I think this is the most difficult thing about playing the piano and syncopation. These changes every two or three bars so that it is not uniform, but rhythmic and coherent.

Looking for such kind of tutorial thanks for giving best insight infact.Excellent lesson a simplest one. I wish to see a color notes while pressing chords or notes would be more perfect for easy understanding. Thnks for beautiful lesson.

[@BitesizePiano]

I'm afraid the coloured drop down note things actually hinder your progress as people come too reliant on them instead of learning the notes...that technology would also cost me a lot of money to implement, and my tutorials are all completely free. The tutorial is very clear, and I instead utilise the top screen to put notes on instead of the lazy drop down things.

[@dalimsameer8032]

@@BitesizePiano I completely agree with what you said . There is a way to it if you connect midi with DAW it display color notes while doing screen recording ,or you need app it does not cost you that way at all. Keep on doing marvellous work ,well only hinders is without having such insightful lesson of yours .

[@BitesizePiano]

@@dalimsameer8032 thanks and I do know exactly how to do it, I just don't think my tutorials need it! There'd be a lot going on on the screen, and would take extra editing time that already takes me a while.

[@dalimsameer8032]

@@BitesizePianoYes ,extra editing time is a daunting and time consuming task indeed. Then i can say all your tutorial are colorful in creativity so drop down color is not necessary. But i will try to find a way for it with less editing.
