The Magic Of Left-Hand Walkups In 3/4 Time (Piano Lesson Using “Amazing Grace”)

PlayPiano Posted on by

One of the easiest techniques you can use in your left hand in 3/4 time is the walkup. Any time the chord progression is up a perfect 4th (like C up to F, or F up to Bb, etc.) you can “walkup” in octaves in your left hand. But be sure to mix in other techniques — any single technique when taken to extreme gets boring, so mix it up.

About Duane

Duane Shinn (that would be me) has good news for you if you want to play the piano. He (me) has little fat hands & stubby little fingers - not at all suited for playing the piano - more suited to making mud pies or some such. I am also fairly uncoordinated with just average musical ability - certainly not a great piano player. But I've learned a ton about music over the years and people tell me I'm pretty decent at explaining how music works & how to progress more rapidly on the piano. Over the years I have developed about 150 techniques for conquering the piano. Most professional pianists can do these techniques, but very few can explain them in a way people can understand. I specialize in making complex techniques simple. I invite you to watch a few of my free videos and see some of these for yourself before making any decision about taking any of my courses.
