How to Embellish & Improve a Piano Melody (Part 2)
Once you can write a melody, the next step is making it sing — this lesson teaches advanced tools to embellish and improve it on the piano. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music shares an easy composing approach with songwriting tips, then layers in advanced melody-writing tools: call and response, turnarounds, bass movement, rhythm patterns and time signatures. You'll also embellish the melody with grace notes, fillers and turns, because a melody is nothing without catchy rhythm and dynamic harmony. Starting from a few notes and simple theory, you'll make your tune catchier and longer-lasting on the piano. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎵 Music Theory lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/PianoTheory 🎹 All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC 👂 Ear Training lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #MelodyEmbellishment #MelodyWriting #PianoLesson
