By the end of the lesson, students will have a better understanding of how the piano keyboard is set up, how to play a C-Major scale, how to build a simple musical phrase using notes of the C- scale, and how assemble simple musical phrases into an optional partner/small group song for a mini recording.

Google has recently released a new Chrome Music Lab experiment called, “Shared Piano” which does a decent job at conquering latency issues, thus allowing music making to feel more authentic across digital platforms & devices. But as most of us have learned during the midst of the 2020/21 chaos, latency issues, and physical equipment make learning music a little bit more challenging these days. Understanding basic chords, scales, harmony/melody, and even just simple hand-eye coordination are all things that we want our students to grasp and have practice with. Learning basic piano is one of the most important foundational skills for any beginning music student. This is a guest lesson by Katrina Proctor, Content Manager at Midnight Music.
