Learn to Play the Piano - Lesson #2 - how scales are made

[lilmissmuah]

thax alot. i jus got a piano and im very lost. Could u plz tell me the significance of our left and right hand playing the piano??

[thepianochordbook]

@lilmissmuah Congrats on getting a piano! The piano is unique because it is one of the only instruments where you can play multiple parts at the same time. Typically our left hand plays the bass (low) notes and our right hand plays the treble (high) notes. I plan to discuss specifically what to do with each hand in a lesson very soon so keep an eye out for that. In the meantime, I would suggest that you begin by doing the same thing in both hands to build strength and dexterity.

[thepianochordbook]

@lilmissmuah For example, from this video you could work on finding scales in both your left & right hand equally. Also, from the next lesson on chords, you could work on finding chords from each scale using both your left & right hand equally. The muscles used to play chords & scales need to be developed & it takes time. So, be patient & in time you can work to play different things in each hand. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching & all the best to you in your musical endeavors!

[thepianochordbook]

@danielconde001 Great suggestion! I will make that lesson #8. Thanks!

[HolyNova1000]

After your finished with this series, you should do some songs, and teach us (:

[thepianochordbook]

@HolyNova1000 That is the plan! We'll get there eventually. Thanks for watching.

yea didint show the cords so i will say 10000000000000000 boos bye loser

[thepianochordbook]

@conorp099 There are no chords in this video because the focus is on how scales are made. If you would like to learn about chords I suggest you watch the next video, Lesson #3 - How chords are made.
