Piano
playing concepts you'll cherish for a lifetime!
Hello!
Dave here. I invite you to grab a favorite beverage and "peek over my
shoulder" as
we explore this wonderful world of music and improvisation together : )
Throughout my musical life, many of the lessons that I have treasured
the most were
actually those times when I had the opportunity to peek over the
shoulder of a fellow pianist and
see what he or she was doing! Of course, when approached, they were
usually quite accommodating
and eager to share what they knew. These rare opportunities may have
lasted for 30 seconds or for
perhaps a few minutes, but when I left I knew I grasped on to something
that I never had the pleasure
and privilege of learning during any formal piano lesson that I
participated in. Let's face it... nothing
can replace those special little "aha!" moments...
Something I Want To Share
With You
I would like to let you in on one of the most powerful, creative
strategies available to the pianist who
is wanting to acquire that "special something" that allows an
improvising pianist to play through
two or three choruses of a tune like Skylark or Misty with the
tools and confidence to make
each of those choruses sound different in some respect. One might call
it the "secret" to
musical creativity, especially as it applies to embellishing those
favorite tunes.
Well, here it is is in a nutshell: (you really already know it)
If
you want to speak in a language freely and fluently,
you
must practice using elements of that language
over
and over in different contexts.
You've already done this.
You prove it each and every day.
You speak the elements of your language
in the form of words, phrases, sentences
in a free and creative fashion because
you
practiced using the elements of
your
language over and over in
different
contexts.
There you have it.
This is what you might consider to be the real "secret" to speaking via
your musical instrument
in a creative fashion - practice using the elements
over and over in different contexts.
This is this concept upon which
my creative piano learning programs is based.
Sneak Peeks is no exception.
Actually, we put things in a little higher gear here.
You'll be introduced to some unique ideas. You see, I also understand
an important fact
when it come to this kind of learning process: repeated exposure to unfamiliar
elements
makes them familiar. So this is an opportunity for
you to gain that kind of exposure.
The aim is, within the context of a session, to provide you with
helpful styling insights, tips,
and strategies for helping you to turn the heads of your friends whenever a
piano is available.
Sneak Peeks serve as either a perfect
compliment to ProProach
or perhaps will provide you
with the inspiration to begin that popular piano chord program. Either
way, what you get when
you purchase one of these sessions is an Audio Animation Video
displaying the keys on the
piano keyboard that I am playing along with, of course, my narration as
I play and demonstrate.
Learn In "Small Chews"
Within The Context Of Just 4 Measures
The content will include discussion within the context of about four
measures of a standard song
and a demonstration of various piano styling strategies including piano
chord voicing
options, professional insights, and perhaps you'll grasp on to some
pretty neat
"trade secrets" that you'll enjoy having at your command whenever your
personal musical style calls for it. With the context of the musical
excerpt,
we take a look at a few different tips/strategies a pro player might
consider using when either playing that tune from a fake book
or from memory. The idea is to expand your creative mind set
by displaying different approaches to that musical segment by using
elements of this musical language - specifically chords,
voicings,
scales, & melody - so that you become inspired to use these elements
over and over in
different contexts, including your favorite
songs, of course.
You can hear an excerpt of each session prior to making a
decision so that you
feel comfortable with your purchase. If you have any questions, simply
email me at:
info @ pianoamore.com and I will be happy to help in any
way that I possibly can. I do appreciate that you're here.

You're not alone.

"Dave,Your
video lesson 'My Romance' is
probably the best lesson I have ever
had (though only have a total of three
years of learning piano). I love the
way you approached it, using different
ways to tackle the first four bars.
I simply love it. I kept saying,
'Ya, Dave, show us more ways.'
And you do come up with more ways.
Keep up the good work."
