The Keyboard is a fantastic, versatile and in-demand instrument; a mainstay of pop bands, gospel choirs, musical theatre orchestras, film soundtracks, commercials and many more musical scenarios. This course teaches complete beginners (even non-musicians) how the layout of the keyboard works, and how to construct the fundamental tools of the keyboard players skillset. Working systematically, you will begin by understanding the difference between what a 'piano player' does and what a 'keyboard player' does, the piano being a natural and acoustic instrument which makes a sound, and the keyboard being a computer controller used to generate sounds, which can be changed and manipulated. The remaining videos are a birds-eye view of the keyboard which explain the layout and positioning of the keys, before moving to the way in which a major scale' is constructed, and how this is relevant to working out 'chords'. You will learn to play three chords initially, before looking at ways to move more fluidly between them, and how to add depth and interest by including the lower notes on the keyboard. The course aims to give you an understanding of how music works in relation to keyboard players, in order that you can continue to progress and explore beyond the reach of this beginners guide.
