Interested In Learning How To Play Hymns By Ear On The Piano?

Sept. 28, 2009 - PRLog -- Learning to play hymns by ear is a rather satisfying way to approach learning piano, since the technical demand for playing most hymns is not at a high level. You will want to familiarize yourself with certain rudiments. Learning some basic chords on the piano is essential and the resource to go to is mentioned at the end of this post. There you will learn the fundamentals in a fashion that is not intimidating, and you'll have a lot of fun, too.

You can actually start to play hymns by ear once you have a few of these basic chords under your fingertips. For example, the very popular hymn "Amazing Grace" involves your just learning three major chords. Pianist Dave Longo, who can be contacted by going to the below link, says "The process of training the ear should be nothing less than a fun experience. You don't want to force your ears - you want to allow them to be receptive." Dave goes on to say, "That is why we refer to this journey as 'ear training' not 'ear straining' - keep it fun."

And, truly, Dave knows how to get you to do just that. Not only will you become equipped to play hymns by ear on the piano, you will learn a whole host of other great musical skills, including improvisation and more.

"Learning to play hymns by ear is a great start," says Dave. "It serves as a great way to ease into the process of playing music of all types. Aside from not being intimidating, it's quite satisfying because you get to see results rather quickly, especially under the right guidance."
