But why are you speaking so fast?? 🙁
Thanks for the tutorial..can u talk slowly so we can follow.
hi i am having trouble again i play twinkle twinkle little star but the
problem is i dont know where will i put my fingers i know where will i put
but in what group what i mean is.. the key keep repeating in CDEFGABC then
another CDEFGABC again and again and so on that i mean my problem is what
group will will i put my fingers to be exact in sound forgive my english
and i cant explain well sorry i hope you will respondd
I understand. I would suggest that you start the song on middle C. Middle C
is the C closest to the center of the piano keyboard, a little more than 3
octaves up from the lowest note on the piano. If you start the song on
middle C it will be in a good register. The notes would be as follows
(right hand finger #’s in parenthesis) C(1) – C(1) – G(5) – G(5) – A(5) –
A(5) G(5), F(4) – F(4) – E(3) – E(3) – D(2) – D(2) – C(1), etc. I hope that
helps. Thanks for watching!
thanks for the reply 🙂 but how will i know if im gonna place my finger in
in C(5right) then next to F(4)
The note C should always be played using finger 1. When you put your right
hand thumb(1) on C and lay the rest of your fingers across the keyboard,
letting them fall naturally each on a key of their own, they should look
like this: C(1) – D(2) – E(3) – F(4) – G(5). Using this as your basic
position should help you finger the whole song. The only adjustment you
will need to make is when you reach with 5 to get to the A. Hope that
helps! Thanks for watching!

I understood everything so perfectly!!! Finally I can find someone who can
say such a big complicated thing into such simple words thank you so much!!
can u plz talk bit slowly… i can undrstand that four beat notes… bt i
couldnt get the beats subdivided into 1 & so on…. and that 8 beat and the
16 beat division????
This makes so much sense . Thank you
my home work from my piano teacher is to compose a short song using the 4
chords ive done that easily but i dont no how to write double beat chords i
need the first 1 & in G if that makes sense ? does any one no ????
Hello Jenn, I’d love to help you but I am not sure what you mean by double
beat chords. When you are notating a chord on a staff you stack the notes
on top of each other. This signifies that they occur at the same moment.
So, if you had a G chord that occurred on the “1” and the “&” of a measure,
it sounds like you are referring to eighth notes. That would be G, B, and D
stacked on top of each other, written two times and connected with a bar.
Hope that helps. Thanks for watching & God bless!
