Welcome to the course on Circle of 5ths Level 3!
I’m so happy you’re here.
Welcome to the course on Circle of 5ths Level 3! I designed this course for anyone who wants to compose his/her first song using the Circle of 5ths.
You don’t need to know a lot of music theory to write your own song. Even a total beginner can do this.
What you need to know is that there is a musician inside you waiting for you to discover.
Maybe you have always thought that you are not musical Well, you are going to be in for a big surprise! You are going to learn NEW & EASY Tricks to create melodic lines using Pentatonic tones.
We are going to Rock with your first Solo!
Whether you play piano, the keyboard, guitar or ukulele, you are going to start improvising and creating melody lines for your solos.
It’s a dream for many people to be able to write their first song of their life!
This course will help musicians at all levels but for beginners, you can just stay in the Key of C.
In this course, you are going to use the Circle of 5ths to identify all the 12 Major Pentatonic Scales easily! You don't need to refer to any charts or look up any music scale books. The Circle is all you need!
You may ask: Why the Pentatonic tones?
Pentatonic melodies are easy to sing! There are no dissonant intervals between these pitches.
This is a scale that a lot of guitar players use to solo with and to improvise on.
Here’s the secret: For beginners to make music easily, to create solo lines that sound melodic, you need to avoid the 2 tones that clash in the scale. This is what this course is about!
You are going to play around with these 5 tones around, making them long and short, moving them up and down to put them into rhythm & musical phrases.
You are going to be so surprised how easy it is to write the first line of your solo using only these 5 tones.
Using these Pentatonic Tones, you can also create runs and fills that you can freely put into your music to wow you audience.
You will learn the rhythmic pattern of 4/4, 3/4 and 6/8
To add extra bonuses to the course, you will learn to play 5 songs that are written in Pentatonic Tones.
For the advanced musicians, you will learn to improvise over these songs in different Keys using different Pentatonic scales.
You don't need to be afraid of improvising anymore or be scared of playing lousy music because in the pentatonic scale, all the tones sound good with no clashes when you improvise them over a set of chord progressions.

Rosa is the Pastor and Church Pianist for a local community church in Hong Kong for over 30 years. She graduated from University of British Columbia and received her teaching certificate specializing in Chemistry and teaching English as a second language. She taught public schools in Canada for a couple of years and then went on to receive her Master's degree in Christian Theological Ministry at Ontario Theological Seminary in Toronto. She started full time ministry with her husband in 1989 and received intensive Pastoral Counselling and Discipleship Training at Christian Disciples Church. They were ordained to become church ministers as Pastors in 1996 in a local church in Tsuen Wan and have been ministering to this same congregation for more than 20 years now.
Over the years, she has gone on church missions to Mongolia, Sydney, Nepal, India and expedition trips to the Holy Lands: Israel, Greece and Turkey. Wherever she went, she found herself taking up the music ministry and became the church pianist for that church.
Many people at church have asked her to teach them to play piano. As a result of her passion in playing piano, she started developing piano courses initially for church pianists online since 2008. The piano courses are very unique because she was finally willing to share her Unique Piano Method: Color Chord Improvisation Method known as CCI. The CCI method works for all types of music: Gospel, Pop and Standards.
This Piano Method is easy, fun and creative that you learn to play piano not only from music score sheets, but to play chords from fake books and eventually to play by ear. Students all over the world have requested for courses to teach them play standards and popular songs. As a result she developed 3 Great Reharmonization Method courses for them to play from fake books and play by ear. The Dreamy Piano Techniques courses, especially the one on Autumn Leaves is her students favorite. She has a piano website at Learn Piano With Rosa where she continues to offer new courses to her students. She also holds piano workshops for her local students and train church pianists.
With her education and expertise in teaching, her students love her piano courses and found her piano lessons extremely easy and fun to play piano. They are highly motivated to play piano and playing piano had never been more fun and satisfying for them. You can read their testimonies on her website.
She is now an instructor at Udemy. Come and join her hundreds of students to play piano in a fun and creative way.
