Piano Lesson #1 - Easy Piano Technique - Octave Bass & Octave Drum with Video Demos - Song: Alleluia: Learn Piano With Rosa (Piano Tutorials)

In this piano lesson #1, you will learn how to play octave bass and octave drum with the Left Hand. Professional musicians play the bass in octaves and they know how to make interesting dramatic sounds by varying the rhythm with the thumb. I show you at least 6 different ways to vary the rhythmic sound of the bass so that you can see how a little change can make your piano playing sound beautiful. Audio and video demos are provided for easy learning. I show the Right Hand with one melody tone playing so that you can coordinate both hands easily. All the demos are done in the Key of C.

To play piano well, you need to understand song structure and rhythmic patterns of songs. I show you patterns in the lyrics, in song structure, song rhythm and chord progressions.
