Musicarta Modes Workbook - Paperback

Musicarta Publications and the musicarta.com website are committed to helping keyboard players of all ages and stages develop their creative keyboard skills. Musicarta's home study courses are available both as CreateSpace/Amazon print-only volumes and as digital downloads from the Musicarta website with accompanying audio and MIDI files for the musical examples in the workbooks. All project have ample content-rich sampler pages on site so you can choose the course which best suits you. The Pyramids Variations, Musicarta's introduction to keyboard creativity, shows you how to play a chord sequence and develop a basic keyboard pattern into an endless variety of pieces. The Canon Project uses the same combination of text, illustrations and audio-visual learning support material to teach you to improvise on this timeless and much-loved chord sequence - itself the basis for numerous popular music hits. Musicarta Key Chords Vol.1 is a fast-track approach to learning popular music harmony, teaching the four chords you're most likely to find together in music in attractive rhythmic keyboard riffs. Browse the Courses tabs on the main site navbar for overviews of all the Musicarta keyboard creativity boosters - and check out the Repertoire tabs for our range of beautiful easy-to-moderate piano solos too. The digital study downloads consist of an illustration-rich PDF file with audio and MIDI files for all the musical examples, a Windows OS desktop 'virtual keyboard' MIDI file player, and either include teaching videos or access to restricted videos online. Musicarta's structured, progressive projects offer an ideal 'creative' supplement to traditional exam-syllabus piano lessons, and Musicarta's media-rich learning material means anyone can make good progress without being able to read music particularly well. The 'Mister Musicarta' YouTube channel hosts project videos which keep these projects alive with 'diary entry' ideas to inspire your continuing explorations. The Musicarta YouTube channel also showcases the Musicarta 'Solos' volume. Musicarta on YouTube offers an ever-increasing number of music theory video lessons, while the www.musicarta.com website has nearly 200 pages dedicated to de-mystifying music theory, making your practising more effective and putting pop music keyboard styles at your fingertips.
