Brief Introduction

Feel the freedom and joy of making your own music! A quick, easy method, giving a solid foundation. Tried and tested!

Description

Enjoy the freedom of making music through:

Improvising.
Songwriting.
You can but you DON"T HAVE TO read music.
Very little study needed.
Its easy: A sort of "musical shorthand".
A technically solid musical foundation. At the same time as having creative fun you will also be learning thoroughly the nuts and bolts of music: using, what I call, the ENGINE of music: the different keys, (music's "coloring box"). With this solid, theoretical ground beneath you, you can grow as a musician in any direction, as far as you wish: classical, jazz, rock 'n roll, you name it...
For beginners and advanced musicians. There are even developed pianists who don't know how to improvise ... widen your horizons - welcome to my course.
Of the 24 keys, you can learn as many or as few as you like.
How the Course is structured:

I use, what I call a "4 Step Routine". This same routine is applied to each key.

Each section covers one key and is divided into 4 lectures, (the 4 steps):

The main part: scales, chords, and the first improvisation - in video form.
Step 1 in text and diagram form.
Improvising melody only, over a recording of my guitar backing.
A simple song you play and sing along with me on video.

This same format is used for each key: (section).

Requirements

Requirements
You can start from scratch. No previous knowledge is required. But advanced pianists, too, have gained from this unexpectedly simple approach to improvising.
You will need: an accoustic piano or an electric piano, (with touch sensitive keys) and, ideally, a sustain pedal.
An interest in expressing yourself through music.
Even if you have never played the piano before and you think you will never be able to - follow this course and the miracle WILL happen! - in the very first lesson! I've proved it over 25 years of teaching this method.
