I divided the circle of fifths into three groups. I warm up by playing one of the groups major and harmonic minor scales in 2 octaves hands together and hands contrary motion. That’s was my goal this year to learn all those scales in 2 octaves. This is my second year playing. I’m 63 and play drums and guitar. Always wanted to learn piano.
Hi, I tuned into your channel so I can look at the Circle of 5ths, it is very helpful. I've been practicing for about 5 months, and 2 months prior to gettting used to the Keyboards. I'm a Guitar Player, but I've had many dreams playing the piano like a pro! But when I got up from the dream, I'm like what?? No Way! But here I am learning. subscribed to your channel. I will let you know about my progress. What I did learn so far as intros is, Let it be, imagine, Great balls of fire, a true challenge and intro to while my guitar gently weeps. I did the few intros as practice so I don't get bored doing the same song over and over. Thank you for this lesson. 🖐🎹🖐🎹🖐🎹🎶🎶🎶
So... as a 60 year old "former musician hack", I studied music quite seriously in college. I was a bass player in the orchestra. I learned piano as in the 70's and 80's, all was related to the keys. I have never taken a lesson and found your videos help me now to "formalize" the holes. Fingering scales and arpeggios, how to practice better, how to strengthen the left hand. Thank you!!!!
Definitely practice these with inversions too - like start out in root position C E G, and then make the next chord (F) with as little movement as possible, so keep your pinky on C and move your other fingers up to F and A
I’ve been trying to understand the circle of fifths ever since I heard of it. Even though you did a brief summary of it, I understand it so much better now, and I’m totally gonna incorporate that into my practice!!! Thank you for your amazing lessons!! ❤❤❤
My favorite warm up? These days, its the right hand part of Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D, measures 33 through 36. Measure 33 is the first time that the right hand plays 16th notes, and was hard for me to learn, at beat. So, each time I sit down at the piano, I begin with these four measures, right hand only, for about 5 - 10 minutes. I've only learned Canon in D through measure 36. My warm up is helping me to: (1) develop some muscle memory, (2) get better at playing and understanding arpeggios, (3) develop more dexterity in my right hand, (4) get more of a sense of the movement in Canon D, and (5) keep up my interest in practicing every day. My second fave? Playing chord progressions (either I-V-vi-IV, or I-vi-IV-V), as arpeggios, in each major key, around the Circle of Fifths. This second one is great warm-up practice for me, including understanding relationships among the major keys.
Thankyou, I'm a guitarist and play very basic piano, kind of bluffing that I know what i'm doing, but want to learn properly. This is where i'll start😊
I stumbled upon this video and as a beginner this is actually how I do it! It was very encouraging to see that I am on the right path. Little difference is that instead of playing octaves in the left hand I play the same chord as in my right hand. Is that fine and should I switch to octaves? Also my plan for the future is when I am more comfortable with this to start playing inversions, do you have any tips how to go about that? Thank you!
Great tip thank you very much but look out for that leaf from the plant that's coming after you. I kept watching and thinking it was going to swat the back of your head. Levity aside, your tips really have helped me tremendously as an intermediate piano player 🎹🌿
Thanks. Nobody ever mentioned "Circle of 5ths" to me. Never! First lessons for me were January 1968; I am still on the hymns roster for playing at church. I always loved CL Hanon's book of graded exercises. I doubt that I would need your tip these days, but if the students are positive about it that's good. I am currently using an online tutorial to play Halloween movie theme. Favourite composers Chopin (outstanding Romantic) & Tchaikovsky for unmatched Ballet scores, etc etc. Favourite classical masterpiece: Hungarian Dance No. 5
I love this exercise and plan to start adding it to my pratice tomorrow (sounds more fun than just practicing scales). My favorite warm up is hand coordination exercises since I still struggle with that.
I'm an auxiliary percussionist so my favorite way to warm-up on the piano is to begin by playing various different rhythm subdivisions, dynamics, time signatures, and tempos individually with my drumsticks on my practice pad. Then I will gradually put them all together. Once I get to the piano I play polyrhythms with both hands simultaneously. It doesn't matter if the keys sound consonant or dissonant. It's not about sounding good on the piano for me. It's about developing the coordination of independence with each hand and dexterity within my fingers. Then I repeat the same routine I did with my practice pad of playing at various dynamics and everything. Then I move on to playing polyrhythms with my left and right hand playing different rhythms simultaneously. Then I work on syncopating the rhythms. After all that I play my Major Scale ostinato phrases of 2 Octaves with both hands simultaneously. Then I think about piano ergonomics such as posture and technique because I have small hands and would like to play comfortably but it's tough most times when executing.
This has come into my YT feed at just the right time. Brilliant, and thank you. Yes this is going to form part of my practice sessions, to become familiar with all the chords, not just my favourite/most often used ones. I’m an improviser so it will be of great benefit, to get the major, minor, & dim chords more fluent. Some work to do then👍
Thanks Kaitlyn - jsut came across your site and found it very helpful! I am jsut learning and bought a Yamaha keyboard this week! I play guitar and although there are some similarities, it's a WHOLE new world!
When using your finger to show clockwise motion please remember that it becomes counterclockwise to the camera. You need to think backwards so you won't confuse viewers.
Good evening Kathy, I generally warm up by taking a fifth of vodka with a twist of lime. Sometimes I will have a Martini “Shaken but not stirred before I start practicing.” Enjoy the lesson. Hope you’ll have a blessed Christmas. 🌟🎄🎁🛍 Take Care. 🙏🙏🙏
I don't play music I focus on practicing scales ect. Thank you another warm up or drill to add to my hour of warmups and drills.What's interesting just by doing warm-ups people think I can play music. Lol
Well. I'm about as a beginner as a beginner can get. I swear I feel "Musically challenged". I would say that I feel "Musically Retar..." but you can't say that anymore. 🙄I'm 53 going on 54. And I'm really bad so far. The good thing about me is that I'm no quitter. So as long as my body, heart and mind hold out I'll play/practice for another 25 years. I will 100% watch your beginner video. Anything helps.right? And I do spend about 30 minutes a night at least 5-6 a week practicing. With that said, it's only been 3 weeks. So I don't expect much. Yet. My challenges so far is of course using my left hand and coordinating it with my right. Also, determining where C starts on the keyboard. But I have a sticker there to remind me. I know that will take time. Anyways, I know if I can learn anyone will be able to. So I'll keep on keeping on. My goal is to surprise the wife with a song in a year or so. Drops of Jupiter was out wedding song. Once I find the music for it I'll start to practice. But I need to learn the basics first. Thank you for this. Truly !! ~Steve ❤
This is a public forum as such perhaps you and the instructor should get a room already! Unbelievable!! " I'm no quitter,.." " I will 100% watch your video,.." " Drops Of Jupiter,.."
Great exercise, I'll have to try it. My warm-up routine is all 12 maj scales, 3 minor scales, inversion exercise for all maj chords, and some finger exercises. Takes about 10 minutes, then I get on to my lesson.
Dear Kaitlyn, I'm a complete beginner. Would you please share what type of piano that is that you show in the video? Thank you so much! I plan to take your advice on how to practice and learn the piano. 😊
Interesting point: if you want to learn the 6 scale tone chords in all 12 keys. they go, Major. minor, minor, then major major minor. ie: C, Dm Em. F G Am. Try to learn those in every key.
Oh snap. I never thought of doing this. Been practicing different ways but never like this. For sure I'm going to implement this. Thanks for all the tips!
If you wonder why it is called fifth - its because 5 tones from dominant note is actually 7 semitones. :) And if you compare frequencies between a note, and a note 7 semitones higher, you get 2 ^ 7/12 to 1, which is roughly 3:2, and that is the most "pleasing" sounding ratio you can get... Thats why its so important. Thinking in semitones is actually what makes the whole music theory much simpler...
Good morning, I am writing this comment with Google Translate. By chance I discovered your channel and I find it very interesting. First of all, I wanted to thank you for the downloadable pdf that guides the steps to follow in the progress of learning the piano. Although I don't know English, I am translating it and it is very interesting, so thank you very much. I am 58 years old and I have been learning piano on my own for a couple of years. Perform the first 20 Hanon exercises. The major scales in several octaves, also in reverse mode. I would like you to please give me some advice. Routine to follow. Recommended book, any idea that you consider interesting to grow. If you allow me, I will subscribe. Thank you so much. Greetings from Andalusia. Spain.

That is excellent advice to use the Circle as a guide. Thank you. What I do is play a major scale and the diatonic chords within that scale. Then move on to next scale. And I do them in both hands. This has helped me advance my skills quite a lot.
What does mean the chords on the inside of the circle? On the inside of ‘C’ is Am. I know that it is Aminor, but what is the relation to ‘C’ in this circle?
Been practising for quite a while (about a year) and still find this exercise hard to hit the right notes and keep time. So only starting on C and G, once can keep it on beat and accurate, will add the B chord and after that is perfected, then the next chord on the circle of 5ths... and so on..
Thank you for this! I'm not a beginner per se, but I definitely wish I knew my chords better. Do you hy chance know where we can obtain a perfect 5ths chart?
You're going through the Circle of Fifths backwards: You want each chord to DESCEND by a Fifth - in essence, to RESOLVE down a fifth, which is more natural, and frankly, sounds better.🙂
I teach saxophone. I've often wondered why the circle of Vths is preferred by some teachers over the circle of IVths. I prefer practicing and teaching the circle of IVths because it's easier, and also because the movement of IVths is the way music typically flows. Practicing the circle in this way mimicks one of the most common chord progressions found in modern music: the ii V I. In my opinion, practicing the circle of IVths gets your ears used to hearing the motion of music as it is most often heard and puts you on a more usable path.
@brianbooth4081, you are quite correct, though what you describe is actually called the Circle of Fifths - because you are Descending - and hence Resolving - down a fifth!! 🙂
@@peterrawlings3896 Interval inversions. Okay then, let’s just say I prefer going around the circle by adding a flat to each new key. Much easier to grasp for new players.
Actually, my piano teacher on the very first day itself taught me how to play a song directly C major F major G major with waltz pattern rhythm 😂 and I had no idea about chords and minor chords and diminished chords he was the best hahahhahahaha directly on the first day actually it's kinda good he was like he must have thought everything in net so why not to jump directly on the song and I also picked it up so well and learnt it in three days to play and sing with one hour practice each day it was pretty easy he just had told me the formula of major minor chords and he didn't tell me anything about scales actually ideally he should have started making me play a song after two classes at least first class in chords second on scales and chords then the songs in each scale and chords as simple as that but anyways he was so fast 😂 I had to cover all the basics myself he was too practical to cover basic theory and even basic practice ! Piano 🎹 I find very very easier than guitar actually I didn't try playing guitar after five classes so I guess if I practice daily I can start playing songs in fact I played one song in guitar also same which I played in piano 🎹 but in oknao I learnt it in a day but in guitar it took me two weeks still It was in a slow rhythm the fingers used to slip off the correct strings so I find guitar ten times more difficult than piano because it takes ten times more time to learn a song on piano with chords !
I think you could show where your fingers are more slowly because when you do it fast you have lost me. and if I press the pause button it hides keys and where your fingers are.

Thanks for offering lessons to us...and you keep it simple...thank you
okay i like this, playing all major chords in context to circle of fifths. pretty much fun.
Thank you to The Pianoly
I been stuck in this area, been studying 4 years, and this is promising. 🙏🙏thanks
Thank you. It really helps.
I love it! Such a really good warmup for and practise for beginners. You are a great teacher. :)
Thank you so much my dear
If you want to get fancy, switch hands. Chords in left. Octave in right. Or, you can play the arpeggio for each chord with the other hand
Warm up - inexpensive and filling... Paco Bell. Various sauces - I use different left and right hand ways of playing the chords. Cheers !
Great video. I'm not a beginner but I'm always looking for ways to improve! Thank you
Thanks - glad you found it helpful!
Thank you for your efforts , it is very helpful
This is a wonderful idea.
Try practicing the Dohnanyi finger exercises and see what happens.
Good evening

"in the whole world" 😂🤣🤣 I really loved that part.
Very useful! Thank you :*
Thank you!❤
❤❤❤thanks for lessons🙏🙏🙏
Great advice thanks, I will add that to my own form of warm up exercises, and it requires a bit more thought.🤔👌😎
In a few days my piano will arrive and your videos are helpful to make a practice plan. See you then.
That is so exciting. Good luck on your piano journey!

I like going the other way around the circle of fifths as well (circle of fourths?). Thanks for the cool exercise idea!
Good points - enjoy the exercise!
The other way around is actually the circle of fifths - resolving down a fifth. Which is why it sounds so good! 🙂
Warming up with page 1 of Czerny 125 passagen book
If you wonder why it is called fifth - its because 5 tones from dominant note is actually 7 semitones. :) And if you compare frequencies between a note, and a note 7 semitones higher, you get 2 ^ 7/12 to 1, which is roughly 3:2, and that is the most "pleasing" sounding ratio you can get... Thats why its so important. Thinking in semitones is actually what makes the whole music theory much simpler...

Been practising for quite a while (about a year) and still find this exercise hard to hit the right notes and keep time. So only starting on C and G, once can keep it on beat and accurate, will add the B chord and after that is perfected, then the next chord on the circle of 5ths... and so on..

Piano 🎹 I find very very easier than guitar actually I didn't try playing guitar after five classes so I guess if I practice daily I can start playing songs in fact I played one song in guitar also same which I played in piano 🎹 but in oknao I learnt it in a day but in guitar it took me two weeks still It was in a slow rhythm the fingers used to slip off the correct strings so I find guitar ten times more difficult than piano because it takes ten times more time to learn a song on piano with chords !

I think you could show where your fingers are more slowly because when you do it fast you have lost me. and if I press the pause button it hides keys and where your fingers are.
You ask; what is your favorite way to warm up on the piano? I use my 1500 heater and enjoy some warm coco. 🤣Being silly.
Did I miss the part where you explain what a diminished chord is?
