Piano links and Resources

As I come across piano links to site(s), software, etc. which will benefit your learning to play the piano, I will list them here on this page. I will include only items which I have used or post links to sites which I have visited and determined to be of use to you in learning to play. Enjoy these piano links and visit the sites. I am sure you will gain some benefit from all of them.



Learn Piano by Ear with Over 60 Free Piano Lessons >>>This is a really cool site by Jermaine Griggs of HearandPlay.com. Lots of free lessons and the newsletter is definitely worth subscribing to. Well thought out and arranged. Plenty to keep you busy. A more detailed description of this site as well as info on the piano courses offered is available by clicking on the "Piano Courses" link on our Nav Bar located on the left hand side of this page.

Musicstudy.com >>>Develops and sells some really nice piano learning software. The Note ID tool available for download on the Piano Notes section of this site was developed by Musicstudy. Click on the link and give the site a look! Or better yet, click on the "Piano Courses" button located on the Nav Bar on the left hand side of this page for a detailed description of the products available from Musicstudy.com

Looknohands/chordhouse.com >>>This site has probably the most comprehensive chord/scale finder I've seen. Not just for the piano/keyboard, but for the guitar as well. While I do not play a stringed instrument, anyone wanting to learn the varying chords and scales could do yourself some good here. Not only do you see the chord/scale makeup on the keyboard (or guitar), you can hear it also. This is the site where I sent my visitors to view the different piano chords and scales until I was able to get my own virtual piano keyboard script.

Bluesplayer.dk >>>A gentleman by the name of Jesper Kaae from Denmark contacted me about a new software he developed called “Bluesplayer”. He generously allowed me to download a copy of Bluesplayer to evaluate. Bluesplayer comes with thirty (30) blues riffs that are notated on the Treble clef and which can be played and transposed to any key and played at different speeds/tempos. You also have the ability to add accompanying drums, bass, piano, etc. The software does all this and more. Rather than write a few paragraphs about how good this product is, go on over to the site and read all about it.

Piano Lessons Using Multi-Fingered Piano Chords That Get You Playing Keyboard Music -- Fast! >>>This is Duane Shinn's site and he offers a Free 39-week e-mail newsletter on "Power Piano Chords & Chord Progressions!". Lots of free information on this site. I would take a look and check out the free newsletter.

Learn Jazz Piano by Scot Ranney >>>Free site devoted to the art of Jazz Piano with forums, examples, articles, exercises, and more. This is Scot Ranney's site and is definitely one to bookmark. He offers a ton of free stuff. You can find answers to all sorts of questions on his forum. I am a member and highly recommend you check out the many resources available on this site.

Free Sheet Music >>>Locate thousands of free sheet music downloads, lessons, tips, and articles. Many instruments, many musical styles. I visited this site and they do provide thousands of free sheet music downloads as well as links to other sites which offer free sheet music, lessons, exercises, etc. Large site...should keep you busy searching the database.

Learn Piano By Chords >>>I like this site. The design is quick, clean, and to the point. The basics on chord structure, scales, and inversions are given in easy to understand language. I also like that the author gives several examples of songs using the chords that have been taught and provides midi sound bites so you can hear how they should sound.

Dark Inertia Studios >>>Mr. Vijay Myneni of Dark Inertia Studios emailed me requesting I have a look at his site as he thought it would benefit my site's visitors. And, he was correct. What Mr. Myneni offers is an online full-featured virtual piano that can be used to learn to play songs, compose music and convert MIDI files to piano sheet music. The sheet music display and the keyboard display work together to show you how keys relate to notation, and the falling notes shows you which notes are coming up next. You can automatically create sheet music from any MIDI file, or compose completely original music with the easy point-and-click interface. You'll be able to listen to the music and adjust the tempo as you play along at a slow beginner's pace or at full speed. A really Cool piece of software. Definitely check this one out.
