Friday Freebie: Music and Apps


I've been using this app with my grandson before school starts up again. I'll be sharing this one with piano students. Be sure and check this one out.

Teach-your-kindergartener-music-theory-with-kinderbach-ipad-app




Learn about Finale SongBook here. I'm just starting to play with this but a blogger friend and piano teacher has lots of experience with this App. Read about it here.

Are you looking for free sheet music? Here's a few for this week:

Free Sheet Music: Can-Can

Defying Gravity

William Tell Overture

Broken Chords

In many styles of music including Country, it is common to play the bottom note of the chord, followed by the upper notes of the chord and keep alternating between them. This is known as a broken chord style of playing.

C Chord played in the l.h. would be C then play EG together.

Once you're comfortable playing C as a broken chord, try moving between the chords C, F, and G.

C Chord: C, then EG

F Chord: C, then FA

G Chord: B, then DG

Then end with CEG/ C

Just starting up, brand new is Jazz Intensive Training Center.

Friday Freebie: Sheet Music For Piano





(Piano) Zhi You Qing Yong Zai / 只有情永在 {Free Piano Score Download} 

This Cantonese song, sung by Jacky Cheung & Cally Kwong, has a very beautiful melody.

The young girl that is playing this piano song has her own website, candy6jan.weebly.com

You can get sheet music for the piano at her piano blog here and here. It's easy to fill out the forms and get a free account to download files.

I want to thank so many wonderful people for writing in their requests to me for piano music and chords, how to learn the piano, using both hands at the piano and classical music, plus worship songs requests. It's always nice to read comments. Thanks for taking the time to talk.

I'll try to get to your notes when possible but in the meantime, stay tuned for upcoming guest posts.

Four Videos for Free on Playing Piano By Ear (and More)

(de) Klavier, Tastatur; (en) piano, keys.Image via Wikipedia


Jermaine Griggs, the founder of http://www.hearandplay.com is reintroducing his great music resource offers, that is piano dvds, once again. I wrote a post awhile back on these excellent resources and if you missed it, here it is again:
http://ladydpiano.blogspot.com/2009/11/musician-transformation-collection.html

You can also see Jermaine and Sarah Grigg's new addition. Stop by his blog:

VIDEO LESSON #1 - “Finding the key to any song”
If you ask any ear-musician, this skill will be at the center
If you can’t determine what key a song is being performed in just by listening, you’ll have many problems down the road (at least when it comes to playing by EAR in situations where you need to “think on your feet.”)
This is the most “intuitive” of all the skills and knowledge you’ll attain. It’s not like reading sheet music where you look at the grand staff and determine what key the piece is in by the number of flats or sharps that appear at the beginning of the music.
YOU DON’T HAVE MUSIC IN FRONT OF YOU.
No reference.
Just your ear.
This video will make it plain… Note: If you really like what I talked about, I have an 80-minute course that covers finding the key to any song. You can find it here.

VIDEO LESSON #2 - “The KEY to getting to the next level in your piano”
This next lesson reveals a very important STRATEGY you MUST have as an ear-musician.
Again, if you’re reading sheet music, this probably isn’t emphasized as much… but when it comes to playing by ear, “NUMBERS” rule.
And your ability to know your numbers “inside” and “out” will determine how far you get… and how fast you get there.
If you have no idea what I’m talking about, check out the next lesson below. There is also a 28-pg report that goes along with it.
(You may also find my “core fundamentals” courses helpful)

VIDEO LESSON #3 - “The SECRET to playing ANY and EVERY chord you want in SECONDS”
This next lesson will take you even further…
It borrows a very familiar concept from the car industry (popularized by Henry Ford in the early 1900’s) and adapts it to music!
It’s the very next logical step in the process and you’ll get it laid out for you plainly in this video…
(there is a 14 page report included at the bottom of the video)
If this topic interests you, then you may like my “hear & play chords” series.
RESOURCE: Click here to download the free 14-pg report that goes along with this video lesson.

VIDEO LESSON #4 - “The MISSING PIECE OF THE PUZZLE to playing almost any song out there”
This last video could arguably be the MOST IMPORTANT part when it comes to learning real songs and understanding just how closely related songs are (yes… all songs follow the same general patterns and principles — this video will reveal all of this to you…)
There’s also a 12-pg report that goes along with it…
RESOURCE: Click here to download the free 12-pg report that goes along with this video lesson.
(If you’re into gospel music, GospelKeys 202 really breaks down the idea of “patterns.” 70 to 80% of songs have the same common movements in them. This course is revolutionary in that it breaks down all these patterns and covers the “how,” “what,” and “why.” Click here for more information)

All the best,
