Udemy Piano Concepts for Absolute Beginners [TUTORiAL]

Ready to start your piano journey without getting buried in sheet music? This course is designed for absolute beginners who want to dive right into playing - using their ears, creativity, and a few powerful concepts to make music from day one.

You’ll start with the basics - hearing and naming notes, understanding pitch, and unlocking the building blocks of music (tones and semitones). Then we’ll use those tools to create scales, craft melodies, and build chords that actually sound good together.

By the end, you’ll be:

• Confident in recognizing and naming notes (A–G, sharps, and flats)
• Able to build major and natural minor scales without memorizing endless charts
• Creating your own melodies in key - no leaps of faith, just leaps of sound!
• Extracting chords from a key and using them to make real progressions
• Playing along with your favorite pop songs using fun, beginner-friendly comping styles
• Combining melody and harmony to shape mood and style
• Exploring the essentials of different piano styles by focusing on rhythm and harmony

Your final project? Create your own song - whether it’s an instrumental piece or a tune with lyrics, you’ll walk away with something uniquely yours.

If you’ve always wanted to sit down at a piano and just play, this is your launchpad. Let’s skip the endless theory drills and start making music today!
