**Please Note - This class is NOT for beginning piano students. To make the most of this class, students should be at a basic level of piano playing, and have the following prerequisites: - know the notes on the piano - know what sharps and flats are - can read treble clef notes from C-C - can play with both hands. **If you are unsure if your student has these prerequisites, please message me before registering.** Let’s take piano playing to the next level! This class will teach the basics of piano chording, and playing a song with a chord chart. Instead of playing a song only by reading the notes, students will learn how to play the basic chords for a song. They will also learn how to harmonize a melody with their own chords. For a quick introduction to this method, you may want to check out my other one time course first, “Chording Fast Track- Twinkle Twinkle”. This course is an extension of that one time class, but is not a requirement to join this course. **To make the most of this class, students should be at a basic level of piano playing, knowing the notes on the piano, what sharps and flats are, can read treble clef notes from C-C, and can play with both hands.
