Description

Are you a guitarist who wants to learn the piano? (This course is for guitarists only. In this course, I teach piano in the most beneficial possible way to guitarists). If you are not a guitarist, this course is not for you. The piano will offer INNUMERABLE benefits to ANY musicians, and it will make you a WAY BETTER guitarist that you will EVER be! Trust me, because that's exactly what happened to me. I have been practicing guitar seriously for YEARS, and I was learning a lot. But then I started learning the piano, and my guitar playing level shot through the roof.

Sounds like fluff, but it's not. I never teach anything I have not learned really well, myself.

Do you want to learn powerful music theory through the piano that most guitarists will NEVER understand?  Do you want to be in TOTAL CONTROL about all your musical activities, whether it's playing in a band or writing and performing your solos and pieces, or performing standard repertory, or ANY combination of all this?

Do you want to learn to be a fearless guitarist?

There's a lot more to music theory than learning some boring bits in a confused and haphazard manner from most guitar players, and forgetting it. Most of them learn it ineffectively, and even more of them teach it ineffectively.

We will learn powerful music theory at the piano, which, ironically, will be a HUGE boost for your guitar playing. The guitar fretboard makes no visual sense, and it’s tuning, even less. But the piano keyboard fixes all these problems.

I will guide you step-by-step. I will tell you not only exactly what to do, and how to do it, but also what to AVOID doing. These are mistakes that only guitarists will make. As I happen to be BOTH a guitarist and a pianist, I am in a very unique position to know every do's and do not's about the piano, as related to guitarists. A pianist doesn't know all this other stuff about the guitar, but I do, which means I can tailor-made learning at the piano, for the guitarist, and pick and choose what are the things that will serve them best as musicians.

At the end of this course you will have learned powerful music theory that will seriously BOOST your musicianship on guitar.

Let's start today. Don't wait. Let me guide you through the secrets of this beautiful and fascinating instrument: the piano.
