"How To Quickly And Easily Learn The Secrets To Playing Professional Piano Chords Without Spending $1000's Of Dollars And Countless Months On Piano Lessons"
Dear Fellow Piano-Lover,
Did you ever wish you could just push a button or listen to a subliminal tape and inject years of piano playing skills into your brain? Well, guess what?!
You can't! ;-)
BUT...
You CAN take a few shortcuts and learn to play professional-sounding piano faster than you ever thought possible. How could I make a bold claim like that? Let me explain...
The piano teaching "establishment" has been around for hundreds of years, and although there are new technology and teaching methods, the basic approach hasn't changed all that much. Why?
Maybe people are afraid to change.
Maybe they think it's somehow required that you go through years of lessons, exercises, scales, blah, blah, blah before you should be allowed to sound good on the piano.
BALONEY!
If all you want to do is make songs sound REALLY GOOD on the piano, with professional chords and smooth chord progressions, why in the world should you have to wait years, if you could learn to do it in a week or two...
...or even a DAY.
Yes, I said a DAY.
"But All I Want To Do Is Play My Favorite Songs!"
Have you looked at any of the latest foreign language courses available these days?
If not, you should. Why?
Most of the good ones use a kind of immersion approach to learning the language - they just start talking in the new language and teaching you words and phrases as you go.
That way, you start speaking and understanding as quickly as possible.
Think about it...you don't need 937 grammatical rules to ask "Which way is the toilet?" in Spanish!
I believe the same should be true of piano. So, what does that mean?
Look, if you could take one simple song, with a few really nice chord progressions, and learn to make that one song sound really good, with rich-sounding chords and a jazzy chord substitution or two...
...AND you learned how and why you use chords in a certain way...
...AND you could use that song and the chords and techniques you learned as the foundation for learning 100's more tunes...
...wouldn't you be interested in learning how to do that as quickly as possible?
That's exactly why I wrote this brand new guide...
My goal is to have you playing beautiful, professional piano chords as quickly as possible, but not by memorizing hundreds of different chords first. I use the immersion method...
I cover the most basic chords first - and only the ones you need to learn one song that we study - then we dive right into applying those chords to that one song. But don't worry...
I use VERY LITTLE MUSIC NOTATION in this guide. The most you'll have to learn to do is read a melody on the treble clef in the key of C.
That's it for the dots and lines and weird music notation. Well, not entirely...
We will talk about chord names and chord notation, but the goal is to go right from the chord symbol to playing it on the keyboard. After all...
That's what's most important, right?!
The Most Practical Piano Course You May Ever Own
Perhaps you've heard of this type of music before...
It's called a lead sheet, and it's what most professional pianists use at one time or another.
By sticking with just one song - one lead sheet - in "Professional Piano Chords For Everyday Pianists," you will learn a handful of professional chords, alterations, and substitutions. But that's not all...
You'll also learn how to apply the same techniques to other songs you may learn.
I can honestly say I've managed to pack 6-18 months worth of piano lessons into one 60+ page guide, but in a very focused way, a practical way.
So, Who The Heck Is This Piano Chord Guy?
But why should you listen to me anyway?
My name is Bill Romer, and I've been playing piano since I was about 5 years old - making that over 35 years now.
For the first 15 or 20 years, I mostly sightread music, but then I started to feel very confined and controlled by piano sheet music, so I decided to study jazz piano, which opened up a whole new world for me - not just in my playing, but in the piano jobs I could play, and the people I met.
Since that time, I've played for ballet classes, country club dinners, festivals, church services, private parties, community theatre, and most recently, dueling piano bars. I've also taught both adults and children in traditional lessons and popular piano workshops.
I love popular piano music, and I like for my playing to sound professional, without sounding too "out there" or avant garde, if you know what I mean.
Anyway, all that is just to say that I LOVE playing piano, and most people tell me it shows.
I've done my best to bring that love and passion to my piano chord guide, and I'd be honored if you would allow me to share it with you.
Here are just a few of the things you'll learn in "Professional Piano Chords For Everyday Pianists": - The absolute fastest way to learn any new chord, so you can play it the instant you see the chord symbol.
- The single 3-chord progression found in 70-90% of all popular music that just might change the way you listen to and play music on the piano forever.
- The very special chord that can open the doors to a whole new world of piano playing (it did for me) - and exactly how and when to use it.
- Exactly where to play chords on the keyboard so they sound the best - not too muddy, and not too thin, but just right.
- A VERY simple method for adding bass notes to your beautiful new chords - it may look overly simple, but it can make your playing sound like a true professional in no time.
- Advanced practice suggestions for you over-achievers out there (you know who you are!) - take your playing to the next level fast without paying for months of lessons!
- How to play a chord progression so that it sounds good - it's called voice leading, and it is one of the secrets to professional-sounding piano that very few people learn how to do properly - except for you!
- Alterations and substitutions for the basic chords that give exciting new "flavors" to virtually any song you play.
