Keyboard lessons for Everybody

It’s very fascinating if you know how to play keyboards. So what do you expect if you enrol in a keyboard lesson?

First lesson is the building of foundation. This stage will prepare you with the keyboard playing proficiency. Studying the proper posture in playing the keyboard is a very important skill, and will help the student as he steps forward in studying how to play keyboard. It is imperative for the student that the fingers should remain curved and at all times should be relaxed.

The second stage is the basics in playing the keyboard. In the second state, proper note names will be discussed and the temporary “numbered fingers�? notes will have to be forgotten. Also, the basics of treble and bass staffs will be taught. Both of them are comprise of 5 lines, and with 4 spaces in between. Memorizing the keyboard keys that match to each note is a quite tough to do. Exercising for naming each key will make it simpler to remember.

In the thirds stage, different symbols in reading musical notes will be instructed to the student. The spotlights of the topic are legato, staccato, accent, crescendo, decrescendo, and other special symbols. Another vital point to be talked about in this lesson is the dynamics, which refers to the loudness or softness of the key piece to be played.

Learning the use of scales and intervals is the next lesson. Intervals are the intervals between keys on the keyboard. The range of intervals can be from the smallest, called the half step, to the largest gap called the octave. Intervals which are played to make both pitches simultaneously are called harmonic, while melodic intervals are those played one after the other.

The principal and the common chords are then discussed. Triad is the most common type of chord. On the other hand, the most basic chord in music is the major chord.

Mixing up. These are the chords taken from the parallel major or minor key. Modulation will be taught in this lesson, moving further from the traditional harmony towards the borrowed chords. However, these techniques will not be discussed deeply in this lesson, because it needs a more advanced knowledge in playing the keyboard.

In the final stage for the starter keyboard players, the rules of species one counterpoint will be discussed. Voice leading is another term for species one counterpoint.

The different kinds of motion like parallel, similar, oblique and contrary will also be discussed in this lesson.
