can you please let me know how you decide the top fingers? Is that just by ear because it doesn’t appear to match the chords – thanks 🙂 Coralie
Which top fingers are you referring to? Usually I play the instrumentals and right hand melodies that the original song has.
I really love the way you play the piano
Wow, you did this song! I love you! I’m so excited! God led me to you!
Actually you did it for me am so excited. I like those chords
Hi Nina! I am having trouble playing my left hand at a different beat than my right hand when I go into the second chorus. Any suggestions?
Hi Laura – that sounds like a really common issue to experience at the piano. It definitely takes some time for your brain to get used to playing two total different things with both hands. I have two lessons that you might benefit from. You can see the two lessons here: https://learn.ninanevski.com/product/learn-to-play-by-rhythm/ and https://learn.ninanevski.com/product/learn-to-make-your-hands-work-together/
How to decide the base chords?
