Detailed tutorial with step by step instructions on how to play the bass line, chords and melody of “Cantaloupe Island” by Herbie Hancock. This has been a standard in jazz repertoire for many years. I highly recommend that all students who are interested in jazz learn this piece whenever they feel ready!
This arrangement is geared towards beginner piano players who already have a grasp on note names, finger numbers, and have played a few beginner pieces from the EASY PIANO TUTORIALS playlist.
Go at your own pace! Don't forget that you can click on the little gear icon to slow down the video. You can always pause and restart as many times as necessary. We all learn differently! :)
