Free online piano lessons for beginner piano players

Hello and welcome to free online piano lessons. These lessons are structured for the beginner piano player and will show you how to form piano scales, piano chords, arpeggios, modes for the piano, and more. We’ll also touch on inversions for the piano chords you learn, the basics of identifying piano notes on the treble and bass staff (or clef), and simple chord progressions.

You will probably want to explore our free online piano lessons site and that is fine. However, once you decide to begin your studies, it would be best to follow the order, lesson 1-piano scales, lesson 2-piano chords, etc. By doing this you will gain the most benefit from your lessons.

I have provided links to some cool tools you will be able to refer to while learning to play the piano. One enables you to see how a chord or scale looks and sounds when played on the piano. This particular chord/scale finder tool is located at Chordhouse.com and is the best I've seen on the web. The other is a very useful tool that can be downloaded to your computer for use in learning about note identification on the treble clef, bass clef, and grand staff. So, have a look around and begin your free online piano lessons whenever you are ready.
