Piano Basics and Music Theory #1 | Keyboard Layout and Note Names
A journey of 1,000 km begins with a single step, just as the path to piano mastery begins with the fundamentals and theoretical knowledge.
I'm pleased to present my free course on Christian piano fundamentals and music theory, which I created so that each of you can understand the concepts behind my other song analysis video lessons and pave the way to playing the piano independently.
In this course, we'll discuss topics such as: keyboard structure and note names; intervals; scales; tonality; harmony and chords; and degrees. We'll also look at how all this theoretical knowledge is applied in practice.
I recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn to play and compose songs on the piano, to participate in a band, and even to those who play other instruments.
In this lesson, we'll discuss:
1. The location of notes on the keyboard.
2. The verbal and letter notations of notes.
3. Name the black notes depending on the key.
