From time to time, I will be adding videos of my students performing a composition they have written. Each student is at a different stage in their learning process, and several students have learning challenges. But, each one of these students has learned to create music that they and their families can be very proud of. In my student's compositions, I give them plenty of "wiggle room" when it comes to musical form. I give them a basic chord progression, but they can add additional chords into their music and "go outside the box" -- as long as it sounds good to them. Through this process, they are learning how to "hear" what sounds good together, as well as learning the theory behind WHY it sounds that way. The students learned how to write their compositions from my book "
Chord Piano Is Fun!" I hope you enjoy these videos!
"Sailing Over Seas", written by Zoe N.
This wonderful composition was written and performed by Zoe N, who is only 10 years old. She used the chords in the key of A minor and loves the use of broken chords and arpeggios.
