Piano+2

Piano 2: For students that are taking the next level of piano with me or have had prior piano experience.

4/5/10 Welcome to Piano 2! We worked on refreshing our memory on the keyboards.

4/6/10 We did a lot of practicing today and worked at the keyboards playing the C Major Scale. We discussed whole steps and half steps and how you can put some whole steps and half steps together to make a Scale (WWHWWWH). Black Keys have two names (both a sharp # or a flat b). Which one you name it depends on the rest of the music. The scale worksheet below talks about half steps and half steps and more scales and a diagram of the black and white keys.
