In this piano lesson you will learn to read easy keyboard tablature. Piano tab notation is easy to read even if you do not know how to read sheet music. You will also learn to play an easy piano version of Fur Elise.

To know how to read and play piano sheet music is a great asset. It is worth developing this skill as you have a nearly unlimited amount of piano sheet music titles to play.

When you try to learn piano sheet music I suggest that you take time to learn just a few notes at a time. Learn the placement of the notes on the sheet music staff and also where to play them on your piano.

Meanwhile you can learn to read the easier piano tab notation.

Piano tabs or keyboard tablature is an easy way to learn melodies and other types of piano music. We will use a common way to describe how you are to play the keys on your piano.

Sheet music notation shows the notes to play but not how to play them on your instrument. Tablature on the other hand shows the keys to play on your piano.

To read the piano tabs you have to learn the note names of the white keys on your piano. First we will take a look at the note c at the middle of the piano keyboard. It is called middle c or sometimes c4.

Add me on Facebook: www.facebook.com This is a video that covers the very basic things you need to know when you are going to read sheet music. Its based on visual examples and my explanations, and some audio -samples. If something is unclear, you have to pause to look extra at the pictures, rewind to listen extra times. When it comes to this kind of theory, you just have to take it slow. Cause going to fast makes you miss important things. To pause and rewind is especially important since this video Had to be Maximum 10minutes. So some things are explained very fast. Any questions? Please make them in the comment-section, also please help each other out if you have an answer to someones question :) Hope it helps. Im planning 2 more instructional-videos covering some FAQ’s and Major Scales. Those will be filmed at the piano. Take Care Thomas #96 – Most Viewed (Today) – Howto & Style – Poland
