I'm curious to know what other people's methods are for writing piano music. Like, what is your process? Personally, I arbitrarily play random keys in many different combinations until I have a few notes that agree with each other (i.e. sound beautiful). I then take this "part" of the song and repeat the process to make other parts. Then I chain them together, sometimes sacrificing certain notes to make the transitions into other parts seem more believable. And that's it.

@wmotamedi ha ha....I second this question with u,I thought I was the only person on earth that wrote songs on the piano this way but obviously now we are two.

Why is it that in the opening of the video, the c major chord is triad but going into the justin timberlake song the 3rd note is being expelled from the chord?

[GodOfRammingKilla]

i have to compose a music with all elements in 2 days homework ==" i dont "fcking" understand anything

[ZekeTheGr8]

great video,you made it a lot more easier to understand than most.thanks!

[stereo123]

so you can start in any chord you want and go to any other chord? You can do whatever you want as long as you stay in key?

[MJH09BWS]

@stereo123 yes.

[rookie3945]

IS IT THE SAME FOR C MINOR

[Radicdj]

yeah why just remove 3 and 7?

[HurricaneRocker007]

@Radicdj well remove the 7 chord because its a diminished which is kind of not a pop music chord

[pufixas]

@Radicdj

they sound bad

[deanc2000]

Why remove 3 and 7.
