I Love You, Lord

It's a beautiful thing, to worship the Lord. You know, it just changes you somehow. I've played with the worship team for so many years and have watched people just stand right where they are, with hands lifted up, and begin to worship their God. It truly is a beautiful thing. But I can't help but wonder if perhaps I'm being changed also, as I watch them worship the King of Kings.

Here's an old song, quite simple in lyrics and meter. It was written in 1978, I Love You, Lord.

Do you remember this one and have you had the opportunity to play it in your ministry? I think sometimes singing a simple song acapella can be so powerful, too. Here's a resource you may be interested in. I have a couple of Fake Books in my library. Do you use them?

You can see the entire review at turtleandrobot.wordpress.com

Are you familiar with the song Giant Steps? The raindrops provide the tempo, the box is the foundation and the snowflake is the harmony. Oh, and the kitten is the melody. It's a picture book for ages 4 and up. The reviews are 4/5 stars.

So, I will say this a million times over... I highly recommend and endorse Mr. Willie Myette for Jazz instructions. You can find him at http://www.jazzpianolessons.com/ No, I am not an affiliate partner and yes, I used to be one of his students and am familiar with his lessons and products. I watch his videos on YouTube when I have the time (after all, I am a grandma of 5) and I think he is the best Jazz teacher online. So, if you like Jazz, please take the time and watch his style.

This hardcover book is about Florence Mills artistic life in New York. The book received 4/5 stars.

Harlem's Little Blackbird So, Jermaine Griggs over at Hear and Play has made available a music resource for the vocal artists called Vocals. I believe it's a 10 Disc system of learning.

I Have A Dream with Daria

Here it is MLK Day and I'm just getting around to posting today! You see, our 5th grandchild was born on the 19th and there has been much rejoicing in the land! Mommy and baby are doing fine, so now everyone is just catching up on their sleep. Hopefully, I'll be back to my blogging schedule and teaching the children when they return to school. I hope you have been successful with your piano practice, as well.

How To Play All Things New

Cover of All Things New

Steven Curtis Chapman wrote the words and music in 2004 to All Things New. He's such a great artist. For more information, read his bio here. I found these chords online and in the second chord chart, I have the sheet music. Play it joyfully with 4/4 time signature.

And He that sat upon the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” (Rev. 21:5)

But there's a morning coming, when old things will all pass away 
And everyone will see

And everyone will see

The intro has 5 measures of dotted quarter notes, followed by quick eighth notes.

Then there's tons of broken octave work.

C/E

Fsus2

Dm7(add4)

Bb6/9

So, throughout the song there's a few chords you need to know. Sometimes the inversion changes.
These chords aren't in any particular order.

C = CGC/GCG
C = C/GCE
C = C/EGC
C5 = C/CG
C5 = C/CGC
C/E = EE/GCG
Csus2 = C/CDG
Csus2 = C/GCD
Fsus2 = FCF/CDG
Fsus2 = F/GCE
Fsus2 = F/FGC
Am7 = A/EGC
Am7 = A/GCE
Am7 = A/GCDE
Am = A/ACE
Bbsus2 = Bb/FBbC
Bbsus2 = Bb/BbCEF
G5 = G/GD

So, when you play "You introduced your glory", it goes like this:

C/GC
C/GD
C/GE
C/GF

It's such a beautiful song.

How To Play Triplets Against Eighth Notes

India Eighth notes and rest (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Beginner's Corner

Each quarter note can be divided into two equal eighth notes or four equal sixteenth notes.

Sometimes composers want to put three equal notes into a quarter note. This is called a triplet. Triplets are three equal notes that fit into the amount of time usually takne up by one quarter note or two eighth notes.

Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata has many triplets in one measure of music.

Try this clapping exercise:
1. Turn on the metronome to a slow beat, quarter note = 60.
2. Clap just the beat.
3. Listen and feel the beat in your head.
4. Then clap 3 times for each tick of the metronome.
5. Triplets all need to be the same length. Say a 3-syllable word like straw-ber-ry or can-ta-loupe as you clap. Each part of the word is part of the triplet.

Intermediate Corner

How To Play Triplets Against Eighth Notes

Have you seen music where one hand has triplets while the other plays eighth notes? This can be a bit tricky at first. It is a bit like patting your head and rubbing your tummy. You are doing two different things at once.

The trick to playing two notes in one hand against three notes in the other is that none of the notes within the beat will line up together; except for the first note.

In one hand you'll have to fit two equal notes into each beat, while the other will have to fit three equal notes in the same amount of time. It may sound like the two hands are not exactly in-synch or together.

Follow These Steps

1. First clap triplets and eighths. Work until you can change easily from one to the other. Use a metronome to check that you have a steady beat. Feel how the groups of two and three fit into the beat.

2. Play a scale with a metronome. Play eighth notes going up (1 eighth to a note of the scale) and triplets coming down. Then switch and play triplets going up and eighths coming down.

3. Play each hand's part separately. Switch back and forth between the two like you did with the clapping.

4. Divide the beat into six equal parts. The eighth notes will fall on the first and third beats of the six. The triplets will be played on the first, third, and fifth note in the group of six. As a result the second eighth note comes right after the second triplet. At first, you might have to count to six each time you play both hands, placing each eighth note and each triplet in the correct spot. This will get easier with time and practice, and soon you will start hearing where each note falls within the beat, without having to work so hard.
