[pmugarura]

thats hilarious! No, i did not intentionally try to sound like "ask a ninja". That's my natural accent... maybe he tried to sound like me! LOL

Hey how come you play octave right hand and not a regular chord?

[pmugarura]

what do you mean?

[SpiffaJ]

Like at 1:05 where u say you'll use the key of C, you play a C octave with an E in the middle. As opposed to the standard 1-3-5 of C-E-G. Why? I'm a beginner btw lol

[pmugarura]

you are right in your understanding of the basic construct of a chord using the triad format - C-E-G. When I add the C-note up top (C-E-G-C), it is usually to "open" up the chord. It still IS a regular chord because even though it is 4 notes instead of 3, they are all notes that make up the triad chord C major.

So you can play the c-major chord several ways

C-E-G-C or

E-G-C-E or even

G-C-E-G

In all three cases, the notes that make up the chord C major are the same. Hope that helps!

I've just bought a keyboard and this is a brilliant first lesson. I'm hooked already.

God bless you for this video. Youtube can sure be a great learning tool sometimes!

Thanx! I'm gonna do my best. Finally I know what I exactly want to learn. I'm a christian in Amsterdam.

[elpher11]

You teaching how to play keyboard or just spreading Jesus crap???

[kikeamsterdam]

Still not able to let my other hand play another rythm, it's sooooo hard. How much time does it takes to get some control? (i'm trying it now for a week, when i am not behind the piano i make the rytme(s) on the desk.

Anyway i love this course in rytme, thank you so much.

Hi! I'm a pianist too, but I'm quite inflexible, I follow scores most of the time and I'm playing in my worship band but not really improving. I'm fine with the rhythm, but I wonder how you figure out notes to press! I mean like, I always play C-E-G-C, and I see you play many different notes! Thanks for the vid, learning a lot from it. You're good :) God bless!
