Explore the differences between piano, organ, and keyboard, including acoustic versus electric sound sources and the keyboard's all-encompassing capabilities.
Explore piano terminologies by comparing keyboard sizes (88, 76, 61 keys) and the differences between weighted, half-weighted, and non-weighted keys, including their impact on feel and versatility.
Practice notes identification on the piano, moving up and down by tones and semitones to identify the next note, with sharps and flats like c sharp and e flat.
Develop foundational piano finger strength through progressive exercises that double as ear training, from simple left hand patterns to full scale practice in key of C, with optional advanced drills.
Advance your foundation with part two of the finger exercises, encouraging patient practice, ear training, and hands-together work in the key of C to improve finger strength and coordination.
Develop ear training through notes identification exercises using tonic solfa in key of C, learning to hear and identify do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti and the major scale.
Practice tonic sol-fa by using the tonic sol-fa dough as a reference note to reach random pitches, reinforcing pitch awareness and building a solid piano foundation.
Take on the final chord identification exercise for the 1-6-2-5-1 progression, applying the same method used for the 1-4-5 progression, wrapping up these exercises until the next chapter.
