One Piano Exercise for Scales, Intervals & Chords (E Minor, Both Hands)
Train scales, intervals AND chords in a single efficient piano workout built on the E minor scale for both hands. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music has the right hand work through every interval of E minor - 2nds up to octaves - while the left hand supports with roots, octaves, thirds, fifths and triads. You'll also cover proper scale fingering, diatonic triads and seventh chords, and the idea of 'exponential practice' - an efficient way to train your theory and technique all at once. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Performance 01:03 The Combo Exercise 02:48 Essential E minor scale theory 03:14 Proper Scale Fingering 04:16 LH Bass with Roots & Octaves 05:34 LH Bass with Thirds 06:20 LH Bass with Fifths 06:58 Advantages of Combo Practice 08:28 Diatonic Triads of E minor 09:39 Seventh Chords 10:11 RH with Intervals 12:09 2nd Intervals in the RH 15:57 Exponential Practice 18:22 3rd Intervals in the RH 20:44 4th Intervals in the RH 22:26 4th in LH & 3rd in RH 25:08 5ths intervals in the RH 27:23 6th intervals in the RH 30:09 7th Intervals in the RH 31:29 Octaves in the RH 31:52 Conclusion 🏫 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 reference ➡️ https://geni.us/MusicTheory 🙌🏽 Hand Independence (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-On4vodpAoZqTlWDCS5jv7 ============================= 🎓 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/ #PianoScales #PianoIntervals #PianoExercise
