Duane – 52 Week Piano Lessons

When I sat down at the piano, they laughed at me.

I played the piano for the first time. They laughed. It was a disaster. I heard the leader say, Let’s get somebody with some rhythm in there to play.

Ouch!

That hurt. I told myself that I would learn to play the piano so well that no one would ever laugh at me again.

Guess what?

Nobody laughs anymore. They do not laugh at my students.

Why?

I discovered…

The piano is being played.

The piano has a number of progresions.

What is the difference between a door and a piano?

Chords.

It’s not necessary to go through years of scales, drills, and rote practicing to understand and play piano.

If you have the time and money, formal training is fine. Adults don’t want to wait forever before they can play the piano. I didn’t like taking lessons when I was a kid. All I could do was play the written music. I didn’t have a clue what to do without the sheet music in front of me. I lost interest in piano playing after the incident. I had the chance to play in a school combo, but I had to learn how to play them quickly. Within hours after I got the chart, I was playing the Dm7 and the C6 in my left hand while I played the tune with my right hand. Talk about how excited you are! Within a few weeks, I was able to play dozens of songs. I discovered that my sight-reading speed improved because I understood what I was seeing on the printed page.

I came in through the back door, and now enjoy what I used to hate. Why? I know what I am doing because I understand the progressions. I was able to get my Masters Degree because I had learned all about music theory and harmony from playing and understanding.

I give you the best of both worlds in this course, because you get the understanding that comes from knowing how to sight-read printed music, but you also learn how to sight-read printed music. You can do it much easier and faster if you understand what you are seeing, which is a string of individual notes.

There is a piece of classical music that looks complicated.

Classical piano music.

As soon as you learn about broken chords, you’ll see that it’s all broken up. The music suddenly becomes easy to understand and read when you learn the notes.

There is a broken piano.

There are some things you will be learning in the next 52 weeks.

There are 12 major chords. There are 12 minor chords. All 12 were diminished. There are 12 augmented chords. How to form 7th, 7th, 7th, m7th, m6th, and 9th chords. There are rhythm patterns. There are rhythm patterns. How to find a song. There is a way to memorize music. Form and analysis. How to fill and add runs. You can get rhythm into your left hand. Arpeggios can help you read and play better. You can add variety to your left hand by using an alternating bass. There is a way to find the key of a song. An introduction and an end to a song. A big sound can be made by adding octaves to the melody. How to read symbols. Your eyes and brain are used for sight-reading. Polytonality is playing two songs at the same time. How to hold on to it’s head. Adding under notes in your right hand. How to use the dominant 7th chords. How to form and play a song. Tones and under notes. There are color tones. Transposing to a different key. There is modulation. The written bass part can be used as an idea starter. How to read road signs. Intervals can be used to help you sight-read and play better. There is a way to add broken chords in both hands. There is a way to pick out a tune. The symbols are absolute and relative. How to combine and alter the same thing. How to remember the sharps and flats. Western and country styles. The bass is swing. How to play boogie-woogie. How to make your own music. There are a lot of other things.

Get it immediately. There are 52 weeks of piano lessons.

Every single week for a year, Duane will come into your home and teach you to play the piano using both sight-reading and chord techniques. You can watch music DVD video piano lessons over and over again. Can you do that in studio piano lessons? Absolutely not. You would have to try hard not to learn because you have the book he is teaching from right in front of you.

You will have a permanent library of all your piano lessons on DVD videos, as well as all the books Duane sends along. All you have to pay is $25 per week for everything. I decided as I got older that I wanted to learn to play the piano. Taking lessons with a teacher may not be feasible for an adult with work and family responsibilities. I kept coming back to Shinn’s material after researching many different companies and websites that claimed to teach piano. The reviews gave me the confidence to try it, even though it was more expensive than others. It is the best decision I could have made. You really want to learn because he has a good presence and demeanor on tape and he really wants to teach you. I have made it to lesson 18 out of 52 and I am doing well. When I played a song I had learned for my nephew, he was blown away at how well I was playing and he had been taking lessons for over 3 years. The course books that come with it are just what you will find in other things, but it is priceless.

I went ahead and ordered several other graduate level courses because I realized what a gold mine I had stumbled onto with Duane and his material. I can not recommend this data enough. If you are serious about getting from here to there with flair in a relatively short period of time, it is hard work on your part. Thank you, Duane!

How to sit at the keyboard, the finger positions, the chords you will use, how to read the melody while playing your left hand are just some of the things that begin with square one.

You will be amazed at how much you can learn in a year if you watch these piano lesson videos week after week. I just finished your one year crash course in piano playing. The instruction will last a long time. You are the greatest teacher alive. Margaret is from Cape Cod.

If you take lessons from someone who plays well but doesn’t know how to teach, you run the risk of missing a lot of important stuff. You know what you are getting when you study with the author of over 100 piano books and video courses.

If you want to go slower than one lesson per week, we can adjust that to fit your schedule after the first month. We can do that if you want to.

You won’t just learn how to play piano, you’ll learn why certain patterns repeat over and over. You will learn a lot of musical truths.

It’s low cost! You don’t have to pay anything in comparison to college or conservatory classes.

Doctors can’t take a regular piano lesson at a studio at the same time every week, and neither can most working adults. You can learn at your own pace with video lessons.

You will refer to the lessons over and over again. You will want to review something that was taught earlier if you learn more.

Every week for 52 weeks, Duane comes to your home. There was no driving. There was no cancellation. No waiting. There is no rescheduling. It is at your convenience!

By the end of the year, you will be a master of chords and progressions. You will understand why families progress the way they do.

Thank you for your wonderful set of teaching lessons in the 52 week crash course. I am a Veterinarian who has only limited time to practice and a weekly personal lesson would never work in my busy professional life, but your crash course is just simply great. I bought the package a few months ago, but I don’t have enough time to get a lesson in each week, so I’m taking it slow. Email on file for Jerry Magee DVM.

Are you a fan of music? Have you always wanted to play the piano? You have your chance!
