A flowing left-hand arpeggio is what makes a ballad sound full and emotional — in this lesson you'll build 5 left-hand patterns over a long progression and pair each one with a singing melody. 📥 Download the staff notation & my handwritten notes from this lesson, and support human-made piano lessons on Patreon 🎼✨ ➡️   / left-hand-with-101159830   Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music uses a rather long chord progression with a traditional "ballad style" melody to develop a variety of left-hand arpeggio patterns. With simple displacement and voicing tricks, each pattern gets its own character — then you layer the melody on top of all five, including a 16th-note arpeggio variation. The result is a left hand that carries the harmony and momentum on its own, freeing your right hand to sing — the heart of beautiful solo-piano ballad playing. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎶 All our Arpeggios lessons (Playlist) ➡️    • Piano Arpeggios — Smooth, Flowing Broken C...   🙌🏼 All our Hand Independence Exercises (Playlist) ➡️    • Piano Hand Independence — Train Your Left ...   🖖🏽 The All-in-One Finger Exercise ➡️    • The All-In-One Piano Finger Exercise (6-Ba...   ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielscho... ============================= ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Performance 00:47 Introduction 01:52 Scale for the Exercise 03:13 Chords 07:50 Arpeggio Pattern 1 08:58 Arpeggio Pattern 2 10:14 Arpeggio Pattern 3 11:28 Arpeggio Pattern 4 12:54 Arpeggio Pattern 5 14:59 Melody 17:16 Melody + Pattern 1 19:48 Melody + Pattern 2 22:35 16th Notes Arpeggio 23:28 Melody + Pattern 3 25:26 Melody + Pattern 4 28:58 Melody + Pattern 5 32:35 Summary 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️   / jasonzac   📞 +91 77604 56847 (Mobile & WhatsApp) 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoLessons #LeftHandPiano #PianoArpeggios #PianoBallad
