Playing and singing at the same time isn't doing two separate things! It's doing one thing. The best way to learn and get good at something is to approach it in bite sized chunks. One song at a time. Using this method you get to be able to perform a complete song whilst you are learning. It's enjoyable straight away and you get results. In this course you will learn how to play the chords and the melody of Let it Be. And you will learn how to use your voice (singing or humming the song) to bring the two together. How this course works is: I teach you the simple chords and the melody (both singing and playing) I show you what to practice I break the chords down note by note for beginners (but if you already have some experience you can skip these lectures) I give you simple excercises/patterns to practice (for both hands) Before you know it, you will be singing and playing the song. Chords and Melody. It's simple. You don't have to be a great singer to put a great song across. You don't have to be great Singer and player to get to the heart of a song, to ‘speak’ the lyric and to touch people with its essence. It's all about Melody, Rhythm and Love . Oh… and practice!!

This course is offered in Russian with the closed captions in English. The purpose of this technique is to quickly teach you to improvise and create beautiful tunes on the go and without learning musical notation! You will sit down at the piano and transfer your thoughts and feelings to the keyboard, and our specially designed formula will guide you into it. About the formula This formula was created to save energy and time at the initial stage of studying the piano playing. After all, not everyone wants to thoroughly study musical notation, and not everyone masters in the end, but there is a desire to play the instrument. The motto of this formula is “Right here right now”, as using the formula provides you with a great opportunity to get melodies with accompaniment without knowing notes (using a certain schematic formula) in the shortest possible time. This formula is based on good knowledge of the theory of music, and then adapted to the perception of an individual who has no musical education. It is designed as schemes of particular keys, they are easy to find on the piano keyboard and remember how to use them­­­­­­­! Using this ”formula” you will quickly learn how to play and improvise on the piano!
