    Never played piano before, but I bought one yesterday as I’m increasingly obsessed with the beautiful sound..
    I’ve literally looked at so many videos on here, only to be more confused.. until now.. you guys at PianoPig are GODS to me now, thank you so much.
    I feel so confident in my new journey going forward..
    To anyone thinking about learning, I’m 45 and just starting, it’s never too late.. 💪 🎹

      Yeah man I’ve been playing since I was 7-8 and I’m almost 16 now and from my experience if you keep at it for a year exactly you can play songs that take others 2-3 years to play because of how much time you put into it

      Hi! I’m new to piano and I’m trying to learn on UA-cam. Does EVERY chord that starts with a certain letter is called ()major or ()minor depending on the 3-2 and 2-3? And are all of th chords like this?

      Winner of a video, I have been researching "piano chords tutorial for beginners" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Nonason Ranincoln Genie - (search on google )?
      It is a great one of a kind product for discovering how to play the piano like a pro without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my m8 got amazing success with it.
