A piano tutorial video I created of my favorite music from the anime K-On!. I learned the melodies of the songs by ear and played them at a slower speed for others to like and learn. Only one song of this set, Hesitation, did I use sheet music for reference. There are some mistakes but hey, no ones perfect. Credit to Josh Agarrado for the online sheet music, here is a link to his site: josh.agarrado.net Music played: Cagayake! Girls – 0:05 Don’t Say Lazy – 1:33 Fuwa Fuwa Time – 2:00 Brush and Ballpoint Pen – 3:23 Hesitation – 4:55 – Here is a link to the original OST www.youtube.com Ending music – SMW Fanfare Doing this series of piano melodies was a bit hard, many repeats and practice went into this video. Hesitation I wasn’t able to completely finish, as the bass line actually would change back and forth from being a bass clef to a treble clef. I know that my piano playing isn’t great, but it is an improvement from my first piano video (link below). I had determination to learn piano because I enjoyed playing pieces of music I could play by ear, and by taking a class at SFSU that counted for my GE, it was a two birds, one stone deal. If you feel that something is for you, go for it. I am proud to have taken that piano class and so now I can continue to do what I like to do, enjoy and play music. One more note: If you notice, my camera rig is directly in front of me. Its a digital camera that’s on a tripod. That’s why my fingering may look odd, its because my tripod is

Lesson #2 – How To Play Songs By Ear [Video Series]

 

This is lesson #2 to the video series of How to Play Songs by Ear. For those of you who are wondering where the 2nd part of lesson #1 is [the harmonic progression part], it is actually on its way. The video was all edited and finished… but my friend broke my usb… so… i don’t have the file anymore… and I have to remake it. It took a long time and it’s a bit tedious to do… so please just bear with me and I’ll get it out as soon as I can. On the other hand, I released this video first, because I thought it’s actually better for you guys to see this lesson before you watch part 2 of lesson 1. It will help with your understanding of major and minor keys, etc. So please enjoy and learn something! Stay tuned for more XD Order of songs: Background instrumental: My Dream [Piano Version] – Dia Knock – Dia In Bed – Ju Bora Cry Cry – Dia Wasteful Tears – Navi visit this website for sheets: mardi09.wordpress.com
