Playing
the piano using piano chords
is so much faster and easier than reading
sheet music note by note...
and a whole lot more fun!
Would you like to play
Chord Piano
the fast,
fun, and easy way...using powerful
piano chords & chord symbols?
Dear
Friend:
I'm not kidding.
I really will teach you to play "chord piano" within
the next ten days with both
hands, or it
won't cost you a single cent.
Piano chords will revolutionize your piano playing, and
you'll LOVE playing with them! Chords such as Dm7,
Bb6, Dm9 -- and many more.
I've been teaching piano lessons here in the Rogue River
Valley of Oregon for over 20 years, and my Keyboard Workshop
is known not only locally, but all around the world.
If I couldn't do what I say I can do, I
wouldn't still be around. But I'll leave that
entirely up to you. If you don't learn to play "chord-style"
piano in ten days, just send the course back to me and I'll
give you an
immediate refund
-- no questions asked. I mean it.
It's that good.
Here's what you're going to be able to play 10 days from the
time you receive your piano lesson course in
Chord Piano:
1.
You're going to be able to
play all 12 major piano chords
easily and
quickly. Some of my students can play them in as
little as 3 seconds! (Honest!)
2. You're going to be able to
pick out a tunewith
your right hand both "by ear" and by reading notes.
(Some people play by ear, and some by sight-reading.
You're going to be able to do both -- and knowing
piano chords speeds up both.)
3. You will be able to play
all
minor piano chords,
all diminished piano chords,
and
all augmented piano chords, just by
changing each major piano chord slightly. But that's not
all: You will also learn how to form and play
6th
chords,
minor 6th chords,
7th
chords, minor 7th
chords, maj7th
chords (different than "regular" 7th chords), and even
9th
chords! You will be able to do this for
the rest of your life.
4. You will learn to create a
chording rhythm pattern
with your left hand,
made out of the piano chords you learn, which you can use on a thousand
different songs the rest of your life. If you like ragtime,
you can use it on The Entertainer, and songs like that. If
you like gospel music, you can use it on Amazing Grace, and
a thousand other hymns or other Christian music (Actually --
any kind of "popular" piano music). If' you like
Country-Western or Contemporary or Pop or whatever, you can
apply this "chording bass" pattern to your favorite songs.
(The only kind of piano music you shouldn't use it on is
classical). You will learn to do this
"swing bass"
technique in both 3/4 and 4/4 time (and all the
other variations). Then you will learn a left-hand technique
called
"arpeggios"
-- where you'll "stretch out" the chord into a beautiful and
full orchestral
sound -- great for ballads,
love songs, certain praise & worship songs, etc.
5. You will learn a wonderful
"harmonizing trick" you can do using piano
chords. It's very easy to do, but adds a "duet effect' to your right
hand melodies. (If you sing, or play another instrument, you
can apply this technique to that as well!)
6. You will learn how to "fill up the empty spaces" in a
song with
echoes, fills, and runs -- all made out of
piano chords.
This lesson alone is worth ten times the cost
of the piano lessons, as only the very
top professionals know how to do this. You'll learn
rapid-fire runs, straddles, fills, melodic echoes,
and
cascading waterfall runs!
7. You will learn how to
arrange a song
-- put an
intro at the start of it, and an
ending on the caboose. You can then
take a piece of sheet music and play it your way, instead of just playing what's written.
8. You will learn how to
create a fantastic "orchestral pad"
in your left hand part that creates a
"river of sound" for ballads, love songs, Christian music, regular sheet
music and any kind of song needing a "smooth" feel.
By the way, you will not only learn
how to
do all these things, but you will also
understand
what you're doing!
In other words, I teach music
theory
--
why piano chords work the way they do -- along with the specific skills,
so you won't be doing anything by rote -- you'll
understand exactlywhat
you're doing and why you're doing it!
The heart of the course is a
big, 8 1/2" by 11"
book with scores of illustrations so you can see everything and
how it all works. Then along with the book I'll send you
three bonus charts
-- a "
Visualized Piano Chord Chart" that shows the
96 different piano chords I teach in
the course, a " Magic Keyboard Chart" that slips behind the keys on
your piano and guides you to the correct notes, and a
"
Major Piano Chords Locator" that lets you double-check your
major chords to make sure they are right. The course comes
in
DVD video as well as in
audio
CD,
so
you get
both. Get your enrollment in today,
while you're thinking about it!
Order right now!
Cordially,
Duane
P.S. Don't forget that
everything is guaranteed,
so there is no way you can lose! The book, the
3 charts,
the audio CD, the DVD video
--
everything
-- you get it
ALL.
Oops! I almost forgot -- if you order promptly
you also get a book of songs
to practice your new "chording" skills on!
Here are
some of the things you will learn
when you take the chord piano course:
Chord Piano -- The Fun Way To
Play The Piano!
1st
Day: You will
SEE how to instantly recognize
every note on the keyboard (you'll watch
me do it on the DVD video, plus you'll have a "Magic Keyboard Chart"
which will make it automatic!)
2nd Day:
You'll learn all about music symbols and
what they mean. Rhythm
symbols.
Pitch
symbols.
Dynamics
symbols. Never be puzzled again!
3rd Day:
You'll learn all about piano chords and
how to form them.
You will learn ALL of the
major chords -- ALL of the
minor chords -- ALL of the
diminished chords-- ALL of the
augmented chords -- ALL of the
6th chords -- ALL of the
7th chords -- ALL of the
9th chords! That's a whole bunch
of chords...but...you won't be confused, because now for the first time you will know the formula for chords!
Plus you'll learn all the SYMBOLS
for chords so you can read "lead sheets"
and "fake books"
-- symbols such as F7, Gm, E+, Db6 and zillions more!
4th Day:
You'll learn how to create a left-hand
chording pattern in
3/4 time
that will let you accompany the melody of
thousands of songs in 3/4, 6/8, 9/8, and
3/2. All made out of the piano chords you will learn.
5th Day:
You'll learn how to create a left-hand
chording pattern
in 4/4
time that will allow you to add a "swing
bass" using piano chords to most any song in 4/4 or 2/4
time, and there are thousands of songs
like that!
6th Day: You
will learn how to
"harmonize the melody"
in your right hand by
adding
3rds and
6ths below the melody for a "duet" sound.
(It's very easy to do, but not many piano players know about it!)
7th Day:
You'll learn how to play arpeggios
( arpeggios are piano chords that have been "stretched out") in the
left hand for a beautiful flowing
"orchestral" effect.
If you want your playing to sound
full and luscious, you will want to learn
this technique for sure! (Great for love songs, praise songs, etc.)
8th Day:
You'll learn how to add "meat"
to the melody for a bigger, fuller sound
by plugging in piano chords under
the melody in your right hand. Most people that use chords
only use them in their left hand -- but you'll learn to use
chords in both
hands!
9th Day:
You'll learn how to
"fill in all those empty spaces"
in the music by adding runs and fillers
of various sorts, such as "straddles",
"echos", "tinkles", "rapid-fire runs",
and "cascading waterfall runs", all made out of piano chords!
10th Day:
And finally, you'll learn how to arrange
a song from start to finish by putting a
"front door" (intro) on a song and a
"back door" (ending)
on a song to give it a professional feel.
Whether you take 10 days or ten weeks or ten years is up to you, of course
-- but the piano chord course comes in 10
dynamite piano lessons that will take you
from where you are to where you want to go. You'll start by learning what
music is all about -- the 3 parts of music
-- melody, rhythm, and harmony -- and then your learn to read a
melody line (if you don't already know how). Then you'll learn how piano chords
are formed, and how to get a grasp on all 12
major chords -- and then learn to change them to
minor, diminished, and augmented.
Then after you know 48
piano
chords (12 major chords, 12 minor chords, 12 diminished chords, and 12 augmented
chords), you'll learn to invert them (turn them
upside down) so you'll have 144
chords to work with. But then you'll learn to add extensions to the basic chords
-- 6ths, 7ths, major 7ths, 9ths
-- for those wonderful and exciting sounds that add so much to music. That will
give you....oh, about 1000
piano chord possibilities. Piano lessons were never
this much fun!
But that's when the fun just starts! Once you know piano chords, then you will
learn how to create exciting rhythm patterns using those chords in a variety of ways -- from
"swing bass" to
"western bass" to
"broken chord bass" to..........and each style has
many varieties, so there is really no end to the distinctive styles you can come
up with to create your own sounds using piano chords!

"This
IS the ONLY
way to go for BEGINNERS.
Let me repeat this: This IS the ONLY way to
go for beginners. Put this in your head,
because I've tried all the courses you
can imagine with no success. Why?
Because they DON'T teach you to UNDERSTAND
what you're playing! The result is: at a
certain point (a little bit more advanced
point) you simply CAN'T play the
song(s) because you have no idea of what
you're doing and the Chords, Slash Chords,
inversions, etc, become too much and you
simply have to STOP and forget piano,
because you can't go any further. You HAVE
TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE PLAYING and sometimes
READ IT (from very simple "fake" lead sheets
that Duane teaches you how to read). Its the
only way. Do not repeat my mistake.
If you want to
play piano by ear using Chords (wich is very
powerful) here's the advice of someone that
tried everything:
You HAVE to do this course first.
When you master this, then go ahead and
choose whatever course you like (whatever
you wish - theres alot of stuff out there). BUT
only Duane can get you started.
Period. From this moment,
its your choice to choose what course or
teacher you want, or stay with Duane for the
more advanced courses which can last 1 to 3
years if you want to become a great piano
player. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED."

What people
are saying about "Chord Piano"
"I just played your
tape on chords and am fascinated
with your playing and your
ingenious approach to chords
and what an expert can do with
chords...and you sound like a nice
guy."
Ralph
"I
got your Chord Piano course and I
was finally able to learn chords.
For the first time I was able to
learn scales then.
The
course was so good it "disappeared"
and was not returned."
Yvonne
"Just a note to inform you how
delighted I have been with your
piano cassette courses. You have a
very easy teaching style and you
truly make the lesson
easy to
understand and what's more,
enjoyable and fun!
Thank
you --
where
have you been all my life?"
Sherry
"After many piano teachers that I
studied with as an adult student,
your methods provided much
superior instruction
and, as a result, a new awareness of
accomplishment to me in my pianistic
efforts."
Bob (CPA in Seattle)
"
I had to let you know how much I
appreciate your course in Chord
Piano!
You
teach in a fun and simple way.
I never thought I was smart enough
to learn music and how to play the
piano. I don't have enough time to
practice as often as I would like,
but it's nice
learning at my own convenience and
going at my own pace.
This
is something I've always wanted to
do. Thanks a million!"
