How to Play Triads and Inversions on Piano

In this video piano lesson, I cover how to play triads and inversions along with fingering in the right hand. We apply that knowledge to playing an arrangement of the first few bars of "Let It Be" by John Lennon and Paul McCartney of The Beatles.

    Bravo. Your video lesson is much better than the commercial videos I bought. The display of chords on the graphical keyboard is very helpful for beginners. You should market a video.

    hey man i like that “jazzed” up thing you did and that’s what Im really looking to master, jazzing up the left hand and adding more notes. Is there a science to adding notes like that? What would I search to find out more about jazzing yp the left hand?

  19. daisy752 says:
