🎹 Intermediate Piano Lesson 3: Harmonies & Chords

Welcome to the third lesson in the intermediate piano series! In this lesson, we're going to explore more complex harmonies and chord progressions.

Understanding Harmonies

Harmonies are created when two or more notes are played together, resulting in a rich and full sound. To master harmonies, practice playing intervals and listen to how they blend.

Chord Progressions

Chord progressions are sequences of chords played in succession. They are the foundation of many pieces of music. Today, let's dive into some common progressions:

• The I-IV-V progression - a staple in many genres.
• The ii-V-I progression - fundamental in jazz.
• The vi-IV-I-V progression - regularly found in pop music.
