Introduction to Playing by Ear

US$40.00

Playing along with your favourite songs is one of the most fun and rewarding ways to learn piano! If you’re ready to transform the music you love into music you can play, this replay of my interactive webinar is the perfect next step. Join a community of learners as we explore the exciting world of playing by ear.

What to expect
We’ll start by covering the music fundamentals you’ll need to identify the key, chords, and rhythm of your favourite songs. These essential tools will help you avoid random trial-and-error so you can focus on making real music!

Then comes the best part: we’ll listen to music together and practice finding the notes and chords on the piano. Song selections were suggested by webinar attendees and include music by The Beatles, Fats Domino, and Mötley Crüe. You’ll follow along with the group’s questions and listening exercises, and maybe even discover a new favourite song or two!

Who is this webinar for?
This workshop is designed for piano beginners. To participate fully, you’ll need:

  • A basic understanding of the piano, including note names.

  • Some familiarity with reading notes in the treble clef (helpful, but not required)

  • Knowledge of simple rhythm patterns, like my favourite rhythm pattern for piano beginners, to make your chords sound musical right away!

If you’re new to piano or feel uncertain about these skills, don’t worry! You’ll still learn a lot by listening, observing, and discovering where to start your own journey of playing by ear.
