Whole steps and half steps for beginners

Posted on 05 August 2005 See Comments | Post Comment

 

The "Secrets to Playing Piano By Ear" course covers everything from the basics and fundamentals to Cmin13 (b9b5) chords. The following lesson focuses on chapter three from the course. If you are already familiar with whole and half step interval relationships, you may skip this lesson.

 

Whole & Half Step Intervals (02)

Note: Please pay attention to this lesson as you will need to know about whole & half step intervals to learn scales, chords, and other concepts.

Note: Disregard the "SLXYZ" numbers (if any) as they refer to sound examples. Our 300-pg course comes with a CD with over 330 sound examples which can be heard with the click of a button. (Example: SL003)

 

This concludes lesson #2. If you would like to read about other piano resources that will help you reach your musical goals, click here
