I've played piano for three months (practicing scales, arpeggios, triads and pieces) and there's problem I have not mentioned here, especially when I'm trying picking a melody: what fingers I should use for a certain note, especially if there are jumps and big intervals. I wonder if it's something I will able to do with time and practice or if there are exercises or things to do in order to understand what fingers use in every situation.
My casio keyboard doesn't sound like that of yours, there is a significant sound difference between my and yours(yes, it is of relatively low price). Can u or anyone pls help me out telling what might be the reason behind this anomaly? Thankful for the help
Thats amazing! Love your yt channel everyone else just puts up like half a video and then like make you go to their website that u have to subscribe to, paying like 1.99 a week...
@@PianoteOfficial Hi Lisa, after seeing how easy you made piano accompaniment, I don't think I've ever subscribed faster! Does Pianote have a guitar equivalent & would you have any recommendations for vocal & guitar lessons. I want to become a Music Therapist & knowing how to sing, play piano & guitar proficiently is required. With a focus on (A.I.M) accompaniment, improv & modulation. Any advice would be great!
I'm a new player (learned a little as a kid) but just starting to get into it. (I really want to play classical pieces lol) I'm on my first week learning self-taught and I'm so glad I found this channel. Lots of good stuff and just love the how kind she is. Perfect youtube teacher. Not like a lot of other channels I've seen. Her energy is just so soothing lol.
Your enthusiasm is infectious! Watching Painote videos is a sure-fire way to get my backside off the sofa and sit myself in front of a musical keyboard instead of a laptop one!
I find e, b and E on sheet music are my go for notes. It was so comforting to see you fluff your left hand on those exercises. I feel that there's hope for me yet. Thanks for all the great videos. (I'm one who can't remember tunes but then I'm 67 so have a bit of an excuse)
Lisa, you are SO good at taking a challenging process (learning to play piano) and breaking it down into entertaining, easy to follow steps. You’re an awesome teacher!!
Thank you for this very helpful advice . I have always played the piano by reading the music but hesitated to jam up with friends and make music as I believed I’d never be able to play by ear. Listening to you and watching ur videos have made me feel more motivated and confident that I can do it .
another tip for rhythm that I've used a lot is taking it away from the piano- use the metronome and instead of playing (which will intitially present an extra layer of challenge) clap. find some rhythms in a random book and set a metronome you feel comfortable with and fire away. you can learn to recognise the rhythms on sheet music while understanding the different timings in a more practical sense. even if you don't use a book and just decide to clap once per beat or twice or four times it is still a useful exercise and it takes away that added layer of coordinating your hands to play as well as taking in/practising rhythm :)
Another super super video get up and go yah. Cell phones do take to much time and what did i learn NOTHING. So that time instead i learn something new on my piano. Thank you so much. GOD BLESS keep safe and healthy to you and the great staff.
Great lesson!👌 I love the way it cover a lot of the things that can cause problems.🤔🤔 I have to agree with with Lisa because when you became a member it a whole new level of learning. 🙌 Its like having your own private piano teachers and a library of songs and lessons at your finger tips 24/7. The structure and step by step lessons and how you can commute with Pianote is "Priceless" and the cost will make you😊.
I love the part about having fun with scales and playing them all different ways, it forever shall be so. Thanks for reminding us to mind our reason for playing and to enjoy it!
I was so happy to hear you mention how to experiment to play songs by ear. That's the exact technique I use when I don't feel like sheet music (which is always).
I love playing around on my new piano. I want to take lessons but this video helped me a great deal on things I can focus on as sometimes my practice time is not helping me progress.
playing guitar for some time now im really used to playing melodies and lines in my left hand and right was usually the rhythm the groove. learning piano is completely backwards and i find i actually have a RIGHT HAND PROBLEM. it be cool to get a beginner piano player that plays guitar and maybe go over how he could over come some of the obstacles
We don't have a good place in our kitchen to keep our microwave, so our microwave is in our living room (which is actually convenient for popcorn at movie time) near our piano, so when I go to microwave something (even if it's a super quick 30 seconds just melting butter for a recipe or something) I go and play my scales on the piano if I haven't that day (I have a system*), or if it's longer like a minute or two I'll sit down and start to play a song. :) *I practice the C and C# scales on Monday, D and D# on Tuesday, E and F on Wednesday, Thursday F# and G, Friday G# and A, Saturday A# and B, and Sunday I do them all again. I started doing Major scales for a while before they become like second nature, and now I practice natural minor scales. Once that become second nature I'll probably move on to melodic and then harmonic minor, followed by blues scales (and boy am I looking forward to those!!! XD)
I started out playing by ear. I first learned to play the melody of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star by ear when I was 4 and I was so proud of myself, lol. My dad taught me how to chords when I was around 10 or 11, I think (teaching me about triads and how they're notated when they're written as "Cm7" or something) and then I went and learned to play tons of Disney songs and other songs. I started out by playing a few from a broadway fakebook he'd gotten me and played Part of Your World, and after that I taught myself how to play tons of other Disney songs. I would figure out the notes by ear and then figure out what chords sounded good there. Eventually I got to be good enough that now I can figure things out way faster because at this point I can often sort of intuitively know what chord comes next, which is super nice.
I do those left hand excercises include reverse the rolls with each hand. It is a very interesting sound to say the least.. it's hard/ challenging as what. But starting with the basics she showed is key.
yep..my brain is conbobulated too David Bisson. Started learning piano (online) at 64 after learning to play trumpet 50 years ago. (Sooo easy was that compared to this two handed, brain split in two experience!!). Persisting is a challenge, and i do need to ask myself WHY often. I still dont know really, but this learning is a real eye opener.
Very helpful! While reading if I say the note in my head, I get completely lost. If I just look at it, I hit they note almost automatically. I thought you had to know every note name while playing not just the which key to hit.
What if i dont want toread music..ijust want to learn all my scales and chords to write songs.. :) so far thats what ive done..learned everything on my own..i still get upset about how my left hand does not want follow myright hand..kinda does ita own thi g especially when it comes to rythms..lol..luckily recording my songs in a daw like FL studio or Studio one 5..fixes those mistakes..i can also use a piano roll to kinda lay down chords and patterns....but lately i want to stop cheating and do it all by playing both hands instead of skipping my left hand and adding it in in my daw like i played both hands....grrrr..but this helps a lot..ur aweaome..i already learned a lot..
Technical problems To stay concentrated, To not be out of rithme, To play and sing simultanusly, To find the best key level that fits your voice, Some men sing better in female key. Some wimen sing better in male key. Besides improvisation its hard to get a good song on the piano. 🤗
I love your content, high quality, very clear. thank you so much, I've understood a lot of things I hadn't yet (and I probably understood why I stopped playing at 15...) BACK TO IT NOW!!
Thanks for this. After watching I realized I have very few problem areas, just gotta keep practicing. However, I really need to train my ear. I can make some amazing chords, progressions and melodies but playing a song by ear is really challenging for me. Any extra advice? :)
Lol all i do is the “free time” from 4:00. I love piano but I should be waaay better after 25 years playing. Thanks for the motivation to practice some new stuff!
You guys are just so generous with your free content, and also so low pressure about subscribing to the paid lessons. So, let me just say the paid subscription is SUCH great value, please everyone check it out!! I can honestly say I’m learning so much already and I only signed up 3 weeks ago! Thanks for everything Pianote, you’re AWESOME!! 👏 👏 ❤️
I would like to tell you what my situation is at the piano since your the only one on youtube that understands this instrument. You explain like a teacher. So if you want to I can explain my problem that really makes me so sad and stop continue the piano. Thanks.
2:44 Is me all the way. Trying to deal with my stupid phone while learning something. Driving me up the wall. The Bride saying what the F , was hilarious.
Could you do a video on how to play chords evenly so they don't sound arpeggiated? (Particularly chords with black key on the top/bottom notes, like Eb and Ab major) Also, a tutorial on how to play tremolos could be nice. Thanks for the tips :)
Thank you Lisa! Again you’re giving us great advices! I was doing great with my practice since the pandemic started because I had so much free time for it. But at the beginning of January I got Covid. I was sick for a good 2 weeks. I was constantly exhausted so I didn’t practice. I feel like I have so many things that I have to catch up with.. It’s stressing me. I feel like that I forgot everything that I’ve learned :(
Sorry to hear you were sick! But we've got lots of time to get back to it! Take it easy and don't push too hard to fast! We'll be here to play over and over again!
Great video! I want to develop my playing by ear a bit more, i can find the melody quite easy but the next part wich is finding chords to the melody and making it sound good where I struggle A LOT! Like twinkle twinkle, how do i add cool chords to it? Thank you for being an awesome teacher!
I wanna know how you solve the issue when some fingers not playing a chord become all stiff and tense, it can be very difficult keeping all fingers relaxed when playing.
you always need to be stretching! before and during a practice! it will make all the difference for your playing and capability--- just like playing sports!
Wow love your training videos, you so cheerful and if you make a little hic-up you laugh it make it so much fun! At the moment I am writing one song a day! BUT! now I need to put some music to just two I have selected, I have a keyboard that plays and records many many many instruments for the back ground leaving me to play over these! I play manly cords or single notes in my left hand and cord and cord variations and two to three notes in my right hand not to fast though. what I find hard is I can produce a lovely sound BUT I can't always remember the same pattern ( I know practice) but playing a lovely sound as you go then I forgot how I did that. AHhhhh best wishes ken xxx
Loved this video, thankyou !...I am a new player since lockdown but pleased to say with your help only I have managed to play all the leadsheets, improvising and playing some quite involved stuff i.e. Einaudi quite well ..chuffed !.. One thing I am struggling with, especially with some classical pieces is the time signature ..I understand the 2/4 , 3/4, 4/4, 6/8 BUT I picked a couple of pieces out with 6/4 and 12/8 how on earth do you count - hope this isnt a stupid question for your more experienced players. I would love a short video on time signatures ...Thanks again for helping me accomplish a childhood dream and am 60 years old now :-) Oh, and the havent got time to practice , I am the home cook too..so put the potatoes on to boil for 20 mins..there you go..20 mins practice time..sorted ..:--)
Thank you for the vid!! :D It do help and I'm now eyeing the time and staring at my piano, thinking of when I'm going to practice 😂 I always struggle with being motivated and being interested about piano, cos u see it always needs hardwork and significant energy put into it and u have to do your scales, brush up techniques etc to be able to play songs or pieces. My technique isn't really good so I always feel that I can't play anything I like because my hands are too small, technique not good etc etc :( I struggle to play in front of others and even practicing when my family members are around (because they'll judge, esp my mom :') ) Additionally, I'm a perfectionist. If I make any mistakes when I practice and not get it right, I get frustrated because I can't play the way I like and lose motivation aft that :'( I'm a piano music college student, and I had come a long way because deep down I do want to play songs, pieces or soundtracks that I like. But those things....like scared to play/practice when somebody's around, technique not good, fear of making mistakes always holds me back :') I hope I'll overcome this inertia and be able to play any songs that I like~
At times she goes on too fast for beginners! She helps semi advance people , it doesn't work as well for beginners... She needs to SLOW down naming EACH chord or keynote played .. Zach Evans is a great teacher ;! He NEVER rushes anything step by step!!!
I think playing computer games with my left hand on the keyboard made my left hand strong. I actually feel more in control with my left over my right, even tho im right handed.

Hi, what advice can you give for someone that deals with different finger numbers above the notes?
I love it that even Lisa makes mistakes, and she allows us to see her mistakes.
you have to be unafraid at the piano! take chances, make mistakes... get messy!
Thanks Lisa, you sure know how to motivate
I see this, and am now much more forgiving of myself when I strike errors. ☺️
Pianote is like my own customized piano teacher
That’s exactly what we aim for :)

You go! I played for a year when i was nine, and started again January 2020. Im getting really good! Just practice everyday 😊 good luck!
How goes it ?
I've spent so many sleepless nights on the piano. Everytime it begins with "I'd just practice 5 min only"........ and ends with "f.. nooo it's dawn".
That sounds like a good problem to me :)
I sit down to play a bit and then realize that suddenly it’s 4 a.m
Thank you team Pianote for building my confidence in learning and playing piano.Thank you Lisa may God bless you more
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I learned so many step from Pianote,, thank you pianote for your teaching us how to played the piano 👏👏👏👏
You are very welcome!

Thank you Lisa! You have such an amazing way of teaching. 💖
Too funny! 19:25 is still cracking me up! Like, WTF. Great lesson, again. I like your tip on inversions (a third and fourth on first inversion).
Those who played some other instruments before the Piano like the Guitar, Banjo - they have a more comfortable left hand than right hand.
Nah I'm fine
I love this and I love Pianote - I am a loyal member and have learned sooo much. Lisa and company are fabulous. Thank you!
I love the part about having fun with scales and playing them all different ways, it forever shall be so. Thanks for reminding us to mind our reason for playing and to enjoy it!
The sketch at 19:07 had me in tears 😂 fantastic video
These are amazingly smart tips! Thanks heaps Lisa! Cheers!
Thanks for the advice, I feel identified with "sitting on the bench" issue
Lisa, you are (really) what I call a good teacher ! Funny and serious , at the same time ! That's great !
we are so so so lucky to have her!
You have motivated me a lot with these advices. Thank you! 😘
I was so happy to hear you mention how to experiment to play songs by ear. That's the exact technique I use when I don't feel like sheet music (which is always).
Thank you! Great explanation of inversions and how to consider them!

I do those left hand excercises include reverse the rolls with each hand. It is a very interesting sound to say the least.. it's hard/ challenging as what. But starting with the basics she showed is key.
If I could also find a channel like yours but for singing, my life would be solved 💕
same, if you mean technique lol
It's called Singeo
I love your teaching
Love from Thailand !!!!!
Much appreciation to you teacher 🔥
My top problem: watching tutorials instead of practice!
This is so great, thank you!
I’ve started playing the piano at the age of 68 and coordinating my left and right hands really conbobulates my brain .
yep..my brain is conbobulated too David Bisson. Started learning piano (online) at 64 after learning to play trumpet 50 years ago. (Sooo easy was that compared to this two handed, brain split in two experience!!). Persisting is a challenge, and i do need to ask myself WHY often. I still dont know really, but this learning is a real eye opener.
Thank you, Liza, for sharing this awesome and fun video. This video is going to be véry helpful to me. ❤😊
Very helpful! While reading if I say the note in my head, I get completely lost. If I just look at it, I hit they note almost automatically. I thought you had to know every note name while playing not just the which key to hit.
Very well done videos, content, editing, presentation, and more. Nice job, thank you!
Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!
What if i dont want toread music..ijust want to learn all my scales and chords to write songs.. :) so far thats what ive done..learned everything on my own..i still get upset about how my left hand does not want follow myright hand..kinda does ita own thi g especially when it comes to rythms..lol..luckily recording my songs in a daw like FL studio or Studio one 5..fixes those mistakes..i can also use a piano roll to kinda lay down chords and patterns....but lately i want to stop cheating and do it all by playing both hands instead of skipping my left hand and adding it in in my daw like i played both hands....grrrr..but this helps a lot..ur aweaome..i already learned a lot..
Technical problems
To stay concentrated,
To not be out of rithme,
To play and sing simultanusly,
To find the best key level that fits your voice,
Some men sing better in female key.
Some wimen sing better in male key.
Besides improvisation its hard to get a good song on the piano. 🤗
Make tenor, female alto
I love your content, high quality, very clear. thank you so much, I've understood a lot of things I hadn't yet (and I probably understood why I stopped playing at 15...) BACK TO IT NOW!!

✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️
Awesome!

Sorry to hear you were sick! But we've got lots of time to get back to it! Take it easy and don't push too hard to fast! We'll be here to play over and over again!
What is the grand piao that you are using?
what about tensions specially in wrist?
What amazing video. it helps a lot thank you so much.
Thanks for a Great video ,you' re an inspiration
Great video! I want to develop my playing by ear a bit more, i can find the melody quite easy but the next part wich is finding chords to the melody and making it sound good where I struggle A LOT! Like twinkle twinkle, how do i add cool chords to it? Thank you for being an awesome teacher!
I love your videos Pianote
we love you watching them!!
Do suspended chords work on inversions though?
yes they do! takes a littttle more work to bend your brain around the changing positions though!
Many thanks for this it’s been very helpful - motivational
Glad to hear it!
I cant find the part 3 of "how to read notes" please help me. Coz i have seen so much unseen pattern in some music sheets ..
I wanna know how you solve the issue when some fingers not playing a chord become all stiff and tense, it can be very difficult keeping all fingers relaxed when playing.
you always need to be stretching! before and during a practice! it will make all the difference for your playing and capability--- just like playing sports!

How'd you get that virtual piano with the red notes? Is it an app? A website? I'm dying to know
Merci beaucoup for this, Pianote team.
Do you have a Quebec channel also? Eh?
Thanks how can I read stuff notation
Thank you for the vid!! :D It do help and I'm now eyeing the time and staring at my piano, thinking of when I'm going to practice 😂
I always struggle with being motivated and being interested about piano, cos u see it always needs hardwork and significant energy put into it and u have to do your scales, brush up techniques etc to be able to play songs or pieces. My technique isn't really good so I always feel that I can't play anything I like because my hands are too small, technique not good etc etc :( I struggle to play in front of others and even practicing when my family members are around (because they'll judge, esp my mom :') )
Additionally, I'm a perfectionist. If I make any mistakes when I practice and not get it right, I get frustrated because I can't play the way I like and lose motivation aft that :'(
I'm a piano music college student, and I had come a long way because deep down I do want to play songs, pieces or soundtracks that I like. But those things....like scared to play/practice when somebody's around, technique not good, fear of making mistakes always holds me back :') I hope I'll overcome this inertia and be able to play any songs that I like~
I like the cat in the video by the way.Really funny😂😂😂😂😺😺
At times she goes on too fast for beginners! She helps semi advance people , it doesn't work as well for beginners... She needs to SLOW down naming EACH chord or keynote played .. Zach Evans is a great teacher ;! He NEVER rushes anything step by step!!!
I have a problem with "nervous finger," i.e. the tendency to unintentionally hit a note more than once...
Awesome
I think playing computer games with my left hand on the keyboard made my left hand strong. I actually feel more in control with my left over my right, even tho im right handed.
I love 2 Lisa's in this whole world, and one of them is you, without a doubt! ❤love yah!
glad to make the list!
I have 3 buttons in the middle is not working and high
