Challenging key for me
This course provided some much needed motivation to learn the key of a flat. I need to be prodded to buckle down and face my fear of not being able to learn. It was fun to practice the different inversions and apply them to a melody. I also liked learning some basics regarding accompaniment.
Challenging.
This course was challenging, but always learning something different all the time.
Consistent approach
Scale, chords, progressions, performance application.
This consistent approach really helps lock in the fundamentals

Again on the great course. I’m learning a lot even though I play piano for many years.
