| Article Title :: Five steps to embellishing a song at the piano |
| |
|
You love playing the piano but are increasingly frustrated with
only being able to reproduce what is in front of you. No sheet
music, no play. Oh you only have it in the key of Eb? Well sorry
I can't play that. Does this sound like you?
Several years ago I could only play exactly from the piano sheet
music in front of me. If I looked up from the music for a
fraction of time I lost my place. I was only comfortable in the
keys of C, F, and G. Sometimes D and Bb. But I longed to play
and smile at the congregation in my church. Or check the worship
leader to see if he was going to add another stanza. Then I
started to learn Pachelbel Canon in D. Ever heard it? A study on
the D scale. It opened (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Why all the fuss about Chord Piano? |
| |
|
As I've said in a previous article, Chords are the easiest way
to play and the simplest way to embellish your playing.
If you have no illusions of grandeur and you just want to play
your favorite songs on the piano or accompany your friends, even
your church, chord piano is probably the solution for you.
Chords are three or more notes played together. Chords are also
very mathematical, but don't worry. Those of you that are not
comfortable with math will relax with the knowledge that it is
not necessary to be proficient in the math to excel at chord
piano.
Chord Progressions, or sequence of chords, are part of what give
certain styles of music their peculiarities. And what help y (read full article) |

| |
|
More music fans than ever are looking to download music
online.
However, many people become overwhelmed by their downloading
choices - and are unsure which music solution will best fit
their needs and desires. And here's a more serious concern...
When searching for free music to download, you can get confusing
and conflicting information about the legalities involved. It's
true. Many people have unanswered questions about p2p file
sharing networks, and the risk of being targeted (and
possibly sued) by the Recording Industry Association of America
someday.
But even with the threat of RIAA lawsuit risks, more
people than ever are using p2p programs than ever before. Wh (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Depeche Mode return to their roots with new single Precious. |
| |
|
Precious is the beautiful first single from Depeche Mode and
this is the maxi single for the single release. Overall the
remixes all complement the original version of this song and the
strongest ones are Sasha's Spooky Mix - Edit and Sasha's
Gargantuan Vocal Mix - Edit. Sasha has done an excellent job
remixing this mellow vocal track and made it very club friendly
yet not making it too obnoxiously beat heavy. Although Sasha's
remixes are quite heavy on the bass the beats are quite nice and
the song has taken on a much more electronic form than it is in
it's original version.
Michael Mayer's Balearic Mix is yet another mellow remix and has
a relaxed feel to it. It's mostly a vocal remix w (read full article) |
