Instructor: Craig Coffman

Learn one of music’s deepest mysteries: how to play songs
without relying on music. A very practical presentation of
music theory that includes predicting chord progressions,
learning from recordings, and transposing-all expressed in
everyday language. This is an ideal follow-up to the “Instant
Piano” class and is open to anyone who has a basic
understanding of chords on any instrument. Expand your
musical horizons, and free yourself from sheet-music
dependence, and be the life of the party! Prior experience
with chords recommended. Fee includes the online book,
online follow-up lessons, a recording of the class and an
optional monthly question and answer session. Class is held
online using zoom.
