Course Description
"Piano for Complete Beginners" is a comprehensive course designed for individuals who are new to the world of piano, especially focusing on the jazz genre. With a total duration of 2 hours and 53 minutes, this course is crafted to provide a solid foundation for complete novices.
Belonging to the category of Instruments and Vocal, and specifically the subcategory of Piano, this course unravels the intricacies of jazz piano, making it approachable for beginners. Divided into carefully structured lessons, it ensures that learners grasp the essential concepts progressively.
The journey begins with "Getting Started," where the fundamentals of jazz piano are introduced, setting a firm base for learners. The subsequent lesson delves into "Chords," where students get acquainted with constructing and playing basic jazz chords, an essential component of jazz music.
As you progress, the course introduces "Scales," crucial for understanding melody and improvisation. Following this, "Shell Voicings" are explored, offering insights into simpler chord voicings that are easier for beginners to manage while still sounding rich and full.
In the lesson on "Functional Harmony," learners dive into the harmonic structure of jazz music, understanding how chords function within a piece. This is followed by "Minor Jazz," where the focus shifts to minor keys and their unique characteristics and uses in jazz compositions.
Tonicization and Secondary Dominants are then introduced, providing advanced harmonic techniques to spice up musical phrases. After grasping these concepts, learners are ready to explore "Advanced Jazz Chords," where more complex chord structures are explained.
Moving forward, the course covers "Chord Substitutions," a technique that enriches harmonic progressions by replacing standard chords with alternative ones. This helps in adding variety and color to jazz pieces.
Finally, the course touches on "Quartal Voicings," an advanced concept where chords are built using fourth intervals, leading to modern and sophisticated sounds that are often used in contemporary jazz.
Though the course has not yet received reviews, its thorough structure and expert-led lessons make it an outstanding resource for aspiring jazz pianists. By the end of the course, students will have developed a solid foundation in jazz piano, empowering them to explore further and refine their skills independently.
