Description

This course consists of 12 videos that will teach you how to play Mozart's Rondo Alla Turca (Turkish March) in its entirety. 

Rondo Alla Turca is a great song choice for beginner to intermediate players for the following reasons:

  • Although I don't consider Rondo Alla Turca a piece for beginners, it is not too difficult. It's a great piece to learn for piano students that are transitioning from the beginner to intermediate level.

  • Even if you can only practice for a few minutes each day, you can learn the Rondo Alla Turca in just a few months.

  • This is one of Mozart's most well-known piano pieces.

This course is broken into 12 videos.

Here are some of the reasons why you would want to choose this course over other courses that teach the same song:

  • There are no prerequisites for this course. This course will teach you how to play Rondo Alla Turca even if you have NEVER touched a piano.

  • The video is filmed from directly overhead, making it very easy to see exactly which notes need to be hit.

  • The panning and zooming during the video make it very easy to follow exactly where your fingers need to be placed.

  • The emphasis is on learning to play the song. You will not be overburdened with theory.

Ideally, it's best if you learn the song on a piano, but a keyboard can also be used. If you use a keyboard, it will sound best if you have a pedal.

At the end of this course, you will be able to play Rondo Alla Turca in its entirety. And with some practice, you will be able to play the song flawlessly.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to play Rondo Alla Turca on the piano
