Piano Lessons with a Western Sydney University Educator for All Levels

The Student and Tutor worked through various piano pieces, practicing syncopation, sustain pedal technique, and understanding chord structures like triads. They also explored key relationships, primary chords, and basic musical notation, with a plan to continue practicing assigned pieces.

The Tutor and Student worked on piano chord progressions, inversions, and primary chords in major and minor keys. They practiced playing "The Entertainer" and two new pieces, focusing on tempo, accuracy, and specific technical challenges, with a recommendation for daily practice of the learned pieces.

The piano lesson covered practicing G, D7, and C major chords, including broken chords and different voicings. The student also worked on waltz rhythms, dynamics, and understanding incomplete measures, with a plan to focus on pedaling and dynamics in the next session.

The tutor and student reviewed piano technique, focusing on exercises to avoid hand tension and improve finger reach through wrist movement. They practiced playing intervals and began working on new pieces, with the student focusing on reading notes and counting rhythms. The student was assigned to practice the developed exercises.

The tutor and student reviewed piano pieces, focusing on "The Entertainer" for speed and accuracy, and practiced scales and technical exercises in D minor. They also worked on accompaniment patterns and new pieces involving triplets and hand crossing, with a plan to practice "The Entertainer" with a metronome for faster play next week.

The Tutor and Student worked on piano exercises, including Hannon exercises and various scales (D natural, harmonic, and melodic minor). They practiced chord inversions (root, first, and second) for accompaniment and learned to play triplets in a new piece, focusing on rhythm and syncopation. The Student was encouraged to continue practicing specific challenging pieces for future sessions.
