Description

Class Experience

-Solfege in do-based major and la-based minor
-A healthy piano position and beginner friendly five-finger piano position
-Creativity and improvisation at the keyboard
-A few level-friendly Christmas songs from secular/cultural Christmas repertory
A piano or keyboard with (preferably) 60 keys, or 5 octaves. A weighted keyboard with pedals is preferred. A starter digital keyboard of at least one octave is the minimum requirement, although I encourage beginners to consider upgrading soon after beginning studies in such cases.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
25 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
Students may need help remembering to practice in order to get the full benefit of this class. Practice videos will be posted in the classroom of the songs we're working on to help guide new pianists through practicing piano.
Jingle Bells
Carol of the Bells
We Wish You a Merry Christmas
Other secular Christmas songs may be learned, depending on the level and interests of the group: Over the River and Through the Woods, Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer, Jolly Old St. Nicholas
