(old video) How to Become a Pianist in Ten Lessons - Lesson 4 | Signatures and Circles

In this video, our three focus points are: Key Signatures (looking at how a key signature gets its name and how knowledge of the major scale is important in understanding this concept; also, moving you away from the idea of black and white notes), Time Signatures (how the primary time signature is 4/4, but 3/4 and 6/8 also exist - further research in your own time is recommended) and the Circle of Fourths/Fifths (discovering how all 12 keys are connected within a 12-note chromatic block by moving in intervals of a 4th and 5th, either up or down, in the major scale). --- A few useful links are below that I mention in the video: 1.

As with every video, you are advised to internalise the theory, partake in your own further reading and take away the practice tips and practice for a few hours/days. Be positive, do not ever doubt your ability to progress and practice away from the piano on your Internal Piano because you will benefit greatly from this additional practice, as I explain.
