A chord is a group of two or more harmonizing notes. In this next video we learn how to play three different two-note chords on the piano.
So far we have learned how to identify the letter name of each natural note, however the black keys can be identified by their own letter names as well.

Playing "Heart And Soul" on the piano is really fun, especially as a beginning piano student. Start by learning how to play only the left hand pattern.

If you play "Heart And Soul" for anybody with both hands at the same time chances are that they will be quite impressed.

Take what we learned in the previous video for finger exercise no 2, twist it up, turn it around, add some notes, and come out with your third finger exercise!
