    Take some piano lessons from Scott Houston “The Piano Guy.” In this video, Scott and his guest, Dave Powers, show you how to play the TV theme song from "Cheers." Dave and Scott suggest listening to a recording of the song and trying to imitate it. You don’t want to play a song exactly as it is written in notation. Good players interpret the sheet music. Scott and Dave discuss the difference between playing the song solo style vs. accompaniment style. This song is unique in that it sounds good when you play just the melody line because it is easily recognizable. Dave gives some suggestions on how to play stride piano. They discuss in detail how to read and play slash chords.
    Scott’s life goal is help you learn to play piano through piano lessons that you can take anywhere and at any time to get you started having some fun at a piano or keyboard as quickly as possible.
    The following skills are covered in this video: pedal tones 170, pedaling, slash chord & stride piano. The video concludes with a great performance of the theme song from "Cheers." Dave accompanies himself on piano.
    Scott Houston is the host of The Piano Guy television series on Public Television and has taught hundreds of thousands of folks like yourself, how to have some fun on their piano or keyboard. He wants to help you get there too-as quickly as possible.

    One of my greatest dreams where to actually play this wonderful tune on piano. Thanks to this very program I learned how to do it! A few years ago now, but I'm still as happy when playing it on parties as well as by myself. Thank you so much, Piano Guy!!:)

    For the most part these chords are correct but not all of it is. He needs to go back and listen to it or just watch this great show again on Netflix. This show didn't really get popular till the third season. That guy should just play and not sing. Horrific voice

    This video is so frustrating to watch if one wants to learn this song the way he's playing it because although he's naming the chords correctly, the angle of the camera makes it hard to tell the voicings of those chords.

  • @keywizard
    @keywizard 10 лет назад

    Every piano teacher knows you learn the left or right hand separately and then put the two together. They spent too much time on the left hand and almost none on the right. I wanted to see the documented use of his right hand voicings while he plays clever transitions of octaves to carry the melody while intermingling various chord textures....that's the hard stuff to figure out. Solid player but too much talking instead of showing how to play left and right hand parts separately and then combining the two for the magic. Can you show use the right hand please?

    • @keywizard
      @keywizard 8 лет назад

      I agree that the voicings are standard, but that isn't what I am referring to Pete. Its some of the cool right hand playing he did early on that carried the main melody while mixing structure - not the chord playing while he sang. That's easy to do. Cheers!
