Become your church Keyboardist in 7 days (Lesson 6)

BECOME YOUR CHURCH KEYBOARDIST IN SEVEN DAYS (Lesson 6)

 Introduction
Make sure you have practised lesson 1 - 5 before you lay your hand on this lesson 6. This lesson shall be in sections of two related topics

Play Hymns with Triads/Chords
Playing hymns with triads/chords requires combination of all you've  learnt from day one. You'll  play the tonic solfa of the song on your right hand (one note at a time) as you've practiced in lesson 1 - 3. The left hand would play triads at intervals as the song progresses. For instance:

Song Title: Now The Day is Over
m:     m:   m: f: s:-      m:- m: m: f: m: r:-:-  (Right Hand)
I                         V        I                        V  (Triad with left hand)

m:   m:   r:  d:   f:-    m:- m: m: r:      r:    d:-:- (Right Hand)
I                        IV      I              V             I (Triad with left hand)

You will need to know the song (Now the Day is Over) before you can learn to accompany it on a keyboard since you are learning  with tonic solfa. Play the main melody with right hand.  The triads quoted under the tonic solfa are as we've practiced in lesson 5:


    5    3   1  Left Hand only

I - C   E   G
    d   m   s

IV - F   A   C
       f    l    d

V -  G    B   D
       s    t     r

The yardstick to know which triad would be played, at what interval? You change  the chord at the end of a music phrase (a music phrase is like that of English), where there is a little long pause. The last note of a phrase determines the triad. The triad to be played must have the last note in its group/spelling. For instance 'm' can only be found in the spelling of triad I (d m s).

In our previous lesson we learnt how to find note C and middle C. Here we'll learn a complete scale of C Major on a keyboard. A complete scale of C major is as follows: C D E F G A B C d  r m f  s  l  t  d New letters here are A B C (l t d) and they are not difficult to find because they are the next three notes from note G to the next C (white keys). Since there are 5 fingers on each hand, then some of the fingers would be repeated to play a whole scale which consist of 8 notes. Below are the finger arrangement to play a full scale of C Major: 1    2   3,  1   2   3   4    5   Right Hand Fingers C   D   E   F   G   A   B   C d   r   ...
