Why all the fuss about Chord Piano?

As I've said in a previous article, Chords are the easiest way to play and the simplest way to embellish your playing.

If you have no illusions of grandeur and you just want to play your favorite songs on the piano or accompany your friends, even your church, chord piano is probably the solution for you.

Chords are three or more notes played together. Chords are also very mathematical, but don't worry. Those of you that are not comfortable with math will relax with the knowledge that it is not necessary to be proficient in the math to excel at chord piano.

Chord Progressions, or sequence of chords, are part of what give certain styles of music their peculiarities. And what help you to know that a song is ending or even beginning.

Chords are usually used to provide the harmony you hear in music. That is why they are especially effective in accompanying.

Many people that play chord piano are able to play a full sounding piece from just chord symbols such as C7 or Eb or even Roman Numerals such as I and V7 .

Those that play chord piano often find that they are able to play piano by ear and pick up chord progressions in their favorite songs.
