This is a course that takes away the stress of reading music or studying the theory of it. It is maintained that the mark of a good musician is actually to respond in his aural senses to music sound and is able to play it on an instrument. This is what the course is about. This course follows on from the beginners course - Playing Piano by Ear. The individual is guided and taught to play and enjoy without reading or examination.This course includes the correct identification of different keyboards and how they function, this is mainly the electric and acoustic pianos and the use of their pedals. Correct finger position and sitting position with dictation on the white keys to be played by learners at their first lesson is included. Content does include playing of two major scales of C and G majors to enhance technical ability on the instrument. Songs to be learnt: Eastenders introductory song, The British National Anthem, Annie's song. Songs suggested by learners who are keen to learn may be accommodated. Content of this course may involve effectively playing the hands separately and attempting to bring it together in certain songs. Learners in building confidence in themselves, will be encouraged in an informal atmosphere to perform in front of other learners. Positive comments from other learners will be encouraged, thus giving a boost to help them to be bold to play infront of their friends. As a form of duet with the aim of enriching sound at a fuller scale, the tutor will be accompanying learners as they play in class concerts.
