How to Stylize a Song, Part 3: Arpeggios

Part 3 of 3: Composer Suzannah Doyle shows how to create arpeggios of chords in both hands on piano to create soft, flowing styles of music (common in Celtic or New Age styles). Part 1 (previous video) shows how to think in chords in both hands and use rhythmic contrast to create a song's feel, and Part 2 (previous video) demonstrates how to create cool bass lines by thinking chords in both hands. Great for beginners learning how to make piano chord playing sound relaxed and natural!

All of these apply to any chord you play, and gives you tools to start creating different styles and feels in your piano playing. These ideas are built on those presented in Piano Dreams: The Movie by Suzannah Doyle & Lyris Cooper.

Thankyou very much. I have no musical background at all but I'm trying to produce Hard Trance music. I am trying to learn myself about chord progressions and how write melodies etc,. After endless searching I finaly came across this video which taught me more in 6 mins than what others have tried to do in 6 months. Thanks again. I owe you big time!!!

[SuzDoyleMusic]

@xXStevieGillenXx That's awesome! In my opinion, practical music theory is much simpler than people think. That's why I LOVE making these videos. Let me know how your Trance music goes -- would love to hear it! Best regards, Suz

Doyal is the bomb!! She is a genius, and I thank her for these great piano videos. Learned more in 60 minutes than in 3 years of lessons.
