What's it REALLY like to learn the piano?
I'm going to show you. And to do that I need you to meet Kaitlyn.
She works in support at Pianote, and aside from being an awesome colleague and friend, Kaitlyn also wants to learn the piano. So I’m showing her how, using Pianote!
For this VLOG you'll see her VERY 1st lesson, and then how much she improves with a week of practice.
You'll also get a glimpse of how we plan and figure out what videos to do for you guys, and I'll share some hints about what's coming in the future.
Enjoy!
Here are the time codes:
- Introducing Kaitlyn - 1:27
- Her first lesson - 2:48
- Our planning meeting - 5:26

One of the best ways to teaching beginners is by using a beginner
You're a great tutor
HAHAHAH YES IT IS AN AMAZING WAY TO USE A BEGINNER AS AN EXAMPLE TO OTHER BEGINNERS
Just a motivational reminder that it's never too late to start learning piano. It just requires more willpower and discipline as an adult. ❤️
I wish I was a student sitting there and taking lessons from a great pianist like you
Same 🙄
@@Respect2theFallen do you think on your own about how people react to different things that you do? or do you redact to how they react to you?
i think i can help so i try to u
Same
Yea count me in
this is amazing ! please keep uploading Kaitlyn's progress :)
You bet!
You lady just planted a seed in my 27 yo heart to start learning piano 💙
It's challenging but possible, thank you ❤
I love how you guys are changing it up with this video but still keeping the feel
Glad you enjoyed it!
I've just found my first piano teacher, I'm so excited to get started! I look forward to watching Kaitlyn progress. I love this channel, you're a great teacher.
Me too
This reminds me of my first piano class ten years ago, especially at 4:00, after practicing the technique my Teacher proceed to teach me Level one Piano book Sight reading including all the basic exercises, theories and basic songs. This technique will improve any beginner, for me it took me a month to be able to do all the basic stuff,playing twinkle2 by reading music London bridge song and etc. all absolute beginner should see this video and practice this it may look like nothing but trust me this is the huge thing to being pro n the starter pack.
I can very much relate to Kaitlyn as I have also started learning piano just 2 months back.
Wow! I'll keep watching her classes. It was great to see hou you teach.
good luck Kaitlyn! I am vlogging my progress as a beginner learning piano as well, although I only know the C major chord by my 3rd lesson! keep it up! thanks for the upload!
I see u have stopped uploading
BTW I'm a subber
This video is full of positive vibes ❤
3:36 start
Very good and you really have to go on with these series of vlog piano lessons
Thanks we plan to!
This was awesome! Stick with it, Kaitlyn; I really want to see your journey unfold!
Her on channel.
Thank you so much, I am 11 and trying to learn how to play the piano and this has taught me a lot👍🏻
Wow! What improvement in just 1 week! I was taking lessons before the quarantine took effect, for about 6 months, but started very late in life, 60's. I need to get back to practicing, very lacking. I love watching your videos, so this is great motivation. :)
Yours lessons are the best in the net😊
A quick tip to find your notes:
The black keys are in groups of 2 and groups of 3. Refer to the group of 2 as chopsticks and the group of 3 as forks. The white key to the left is the note each word starts with. C is the white key to the left of the chopsticks and the white key to the left of the forks is F. Hope this helps.
Cool! Amazing quality of the vlog, a true inspiration for me!
I use a virtual piano for learning (don’t you worry, i don’t play on the computer, i use a midi keyboard 🎹)
I'm relearning guitar plus what I never learned and want to start learning piano at the same time. Of that's possible. But of all the video's I have watched, Lisa seems to be the best instructor. I love her personality and her voice. She's also nice to look at as well, so that's a bonus..lol
I really enjoy those two working so well today.
This is awesome looking forward to see her succeed, being working really hard myself and I just got to dominate the c scale up and down with both hands
Yes, Please share Kaitlyn's progress; no pressure. Lol. (if she keeps her nails, she can go play guitar Hahaha) ....EXCITED for the Christmas tunes, Thank youuuuuu!!!
You are a true tutor full of patience ready to teach. Keep it new piano player, you are doing great.
Also, i want to learn more! My notebook is ready to take notes.
We release new free lessons here twice a week and we have TONS more over at pianote.com
I really want a keyboard teacher like her😍😍😍😍😊
Hi lisa and kaitlyn, thank you for posting this video.
Exited to learn!!!!!😍
Nice VLOG again from you guys!
Makes me want to have a RL piano lesson with you Lisa! You seem such a patient teacher. 👍🏻💐
Have a great piano week! 🎹🎼
Patience is easy when you are doing something you love :)
i always loved piano and i even went for a couple of classes years back but i bought one for myself and set my mind to learn it finally after watching a couple of your videos x thanks for what you’re doing
more of this please
Love to see more vlogs in coming days
Ohh bhai! apne classes le liye tip le Rahe ho kya.
Hi katlyin you r very beautiful and learning very nice and don't giveup ur practice and learn as much possible you are fortunate enough to learn music personally from 2 beautiful and wonderful Instructor (Cassi falk and Lisa)
Wow.. ., I`m going to find this SO helpful, seeing as i`m attempting to start over, after a 30 yr break.
Same here! I quit decades ago and started back up again a few months ago. I have a messed up schedule because I work nights, so I've been learning from CZcams videos, a course on Udemy, and some method books instead of taking actual lessons. Soon, I'll take an introductory lesson somewhere to have someone weed out the bad habits I'm surely developing by learning unsupervised, and I'll just do that every once in awhile. In the meantime, I was looking forward to watching a different CZcamsr learn to play using one of the popular piano apps, but she quit posting after 6 or 7 videos, so I think she gave up. I hope this woman hangs in there so that I can take encouragement from watching her.
@@sobrcelt Have you thought of checking our our membership? Our lessons are step by step and you can watch/learn any time.. we do a weekly Q&A for our members so if you ever have questions you can have them answered by a real teacher- and if your schedule doesn't allow you to view live, you can see the answer afterward in our library :) We also offer feedback so you can send us clips of you playing for encouragement, feedback/support etc. Just though I'd throw that out there! I'm looking forward to seeing and sharing Kaitlyns progress with you all!
YAY! Welcome back!!!!!
@@PianoteOfficial Done! I waited to see if you'd have a Black Friday sale, and you did! Now I have to figure out which level to start at while I wait for my stylish hoodie to arrive. I did not expect the course to come with a uniform, but it's a nice bonus, lol.
It’s amazing the way you show how a perplejidad who never has been seated in front the piano, can start to play. Also I wish I had the chance to be like Kaytlin. It’s sure that muy progress, with your magic gift for teaching, it would be faster.
Just when I practice with your videos, I’m surprised the way you become easy any dificulta. Thanks for that and God bless you. Yo
Sorry, but the corrector of my computer change some words. Instead of perplejidad it must way: any people
Kaitlyn is so cute !
You are the best piano teacher
Congratulations, Kaitlin! I’m excited for your journey. I’m a self-taught pianist so I’m looking forward to watching your progress. No pressure with the camera on you, right? LOL!!! By the way, as a church pianist, it’s more stressful having someone singing while I’m practicing.
Please keep this up!!!
Amazing insight to see 'behind the scenes' and a great idea to do a complete beginner vlog with an 'actual' new starter - well done Kaitlyn you are a Star 💥🎹 in the making 😎
i play guitar and ive been interested to learn how to play basic piano techniques
Loved this!!!!!!!
Steps to see something funny:
Step 1 - Pause the video
Step 2 - Click here: 2:17
Step 3 - Look at Lisa’s face!
Step 4 - Realize that this is not for making fun of her, and I love Lisa very much, I have subscribed and I am a big fan, so this is not for bullying!
Thank u mam..great
I'm in love
Great video idea!!! 👍
I love these vlog type videos! It would be a great addition to the usual kind of videos which obviously are brilliant already ❤️
Thanks! We do one every month :)
You know I have looked on youtube and some people have the wrong idea about nails beeing cut. I heard this one lady and she said that she would not cut her nails. Hahahaha!!!! Well, I replied back, and told her as a pianist, you need to give that up. You need to cut your nails. So yes that is so true. This is one thing about beeing. Pianist that people don’t get sometimes. They need to sacrifice some beautiful things for beeing a star! I totally am their. Beeings a pianist myself, I cut my nails even though they are. Short. I don’t want to have them grow. Then, I can’t play good and efficient. So as a pianist so true!! Keep those nails cut.
I want her to be my piano teacher 🥰
Hi .. Iove your vlogs
I'm a totally beginner piano player and I love your videos Lisa but obviously Kaitlyn was already familiar with a piano. She plays C, D, E, F, G, F, E, D, C very easily! And, how she goes from C, D, E, F, G, F, E, D, C at 5:25 to a piece at 7:38 without you teach her? I thought you would show us the full lesson you gave Kaitlyn but she has already returned (after a week) playing chords and a song from Sara Bareilles ("She used to be mine").😔
That's the power of practice! And she's learning online through www.pianote.com
So that first lessons was where she learned the keys and note names (which doesn't take long at all!) and she learned the chord shapes. Then she went away and practiced for a week and came back ready to learn that song. Getting better at the piano happens during practice, not the lessons!
Props on being brave enough to do the video.
She's a rockstar!
This is why you encouraged me to buy a piano, you are an awesome Guide/Teacher. And yes i cut my nails, arrgh, hello fake ones for a day out! Stay safe team.
Amazing!!
Hi I'm Inumi and I'm 14 years old. I'm wishing to learn how to play Piano and I'm a totally a beginner. I feel this is the best youtube channel to learn it. There are 100 of videos in here and I confused at all. May anyone can recommend a lesson video from this channel to me as a beginner to watch at vey firsst time.
I'll following every time
Keep at it
Wish you guys open a violin lesson. So much fun watching you guys teach. I also went to drumeo. It is a great lesson to learn instruments
Violin is such a great instrument! Drumeo is pretty cool hey! So many great lessons! Thanks for watching! :)
Very good 1st lesson except for saying that your fingers must be in a standing position. I have been a percussionist and I have had my numerous band's featuring my dear late great pianist Frank Antico he is on CZcams and he played fingers flat and he was told by a very prominent teacher at age 5 that he's got perfect pitch not relative pitch which I do have,but his teacher told him that if you're playing like that with fingers flat out and it works for you obviously then keep playing the way you do!! I was told upon being heard @ a piano store slash school by a wonderful teacher that she never saw anyone with the dexterity and finger agility along with speed that I should continue lessons ,and I told her I am a self taught multi instrumentalist and I'm playing with fingers flat which she said and I quote her, you keep playing the way you played just now and like you told me Jerry the finger drumming you play is the reason why you have an uncanny gift that by yourself you'll be a consummate pianist it just will take you longer to accomplish your goals on this instrument but I can't deny that you've got a sheer unique talent to become great!! I compose very complex tunes using abnormal groupings like quintuplets, septuplets,nontuplets etc, and I played for Mr Barr music teacher in high school and he's a monster jaxx pianist upon hearing Frank Antico he said omg where did you find this reincarnation of Art Tatum! And how are playing 7s,5s,triplets and more faster than I can?? He was baffled, I had just one lesson with Frank who was blind since birth and he was impressed as much as Phil Barr.Please note that in drum lessons if my student plays his or her rudiments an holding the sticks in an unorthodox fashion but he or she has great stick controll and the likes then there is no way to hold the sticks in the 2 ways one is told are the only way to hold them! That's a rarity 30 ,40 years ago but now drummers are doing amazing things with non traditional methods for the lack of a better term and now all the very famous teacher, players now say there's no proper way to hold the sticks ,it's whatever comes more easily for the individual. I know this isn't the Norm but it's all true.peace and I'm leaving my # which will be changed by Dec 5th so call before then for a brief call my e.st Thanks much and for Certain this was a great lesson you gave overall!!631,219,0443...Please when and if you can call don't be shy!! That's a Rap...peace and have a very blessed thanksgiving and holiday season!!
crazy you start with chords that early, i started with scales and scales and scales :D
but you know, for a more modern learning, i think thats the better way to go! im proud of her!
❤
Great first lesson, I really loved the song choice, I am a Sara Bareilles fan and would love you do a piano tutorial of either she used to be mine, or King of anything. Your a great tutor Lisa, very inspirational, and a great personality.
Sara is fantastic isn't she? I saw her recently live in Seattle! She Used to be Mine is on my list!
A lot stuff!!
So Pianote is partnered with Drumeo? AWESOME!
We sure are! :)
I wish m near by ur place....its my dream to learn paino with u.......by the way I love watching ur episode and I have learned watching ur program ...by the way m from bhutan.....
what happened after the 6th video in the playlist? I would have loved to see the whole journey
Wonderful video. Say greetings to your drummer. At 7:30 he says "people can watch her fail". That is not true, we can watch her learn from the best teacher. And if she makes a mistake, then its not failure, its part of the learning process. BTW: Great lessen also about the length of your finger nails. I'm really looking forward to see Kaitlyn become a great piano player.
Haha he was talking about me (Lisa) when I write a song. We all wish Kaitlyn nothing but success!!
Nice
keep it up Kaitlyn :)
Everything about pianote is not just informative it's entertainment too , I love it 😚 , I have just one slight problem and that is I think the Christmas Carol lesson should be brought forward as it takes me a few weeks to master a new song 😭😭 is this normal ?
TOTALLY NORMAL! The goal is go have the Christmas songs ready by Dec 1st so people have a few weeks to practice :)
i think. i'm willing to apply my self to be a part of pianote's support group and force my self in just to meet kaitlyn.
I’m very interested in playing even got a pretty decent adult keyboard piano it feels pretty nice but it has a tiny bit of a dingy noise when I push some of the keys but only sometimes not as much as the roll up piano I returned
I absolutely love your style of presentation. It's so approachable and non-intimidating. I've been playing keyboard for many years. I started on accordion when I was 6. I graduated to organ when I was 10 (but stopped taking lessons when I was 16 because there didn't seem to be any music for organ that was relevant for me). Later I started teaching myself piano technique mostly using synthesizers. I love to just turn on some popular music and play along by ear (I can usually figure out the key signature and melody as well as the chords). Some of my piano idols are Elton John, Billy Joel, and Bruce Hornsby. I would love to improve my technique, especially in the left hand. What do you suggest?
Ooh good question. I love arpeggios because they sound great, and are a really good technical exercise as well. We do have a little video on them: czcams.com/video/q97ZyiBh_pw/video.html
I hope that is helpful!
what is the tittle of the song being played by the lady please?
It's "She Used To Be Mine" by Sara Bareilles
Cut the nails and become the next Chopin, Kaitlyn! Great work, wanna see more :)
Hahah YES!!!
You missed an excellent opportunity to make a Chopin pun.... Get to Choppin' those nails and become the next Chopin!! 😂
If your not busy can someone plz tell what should I know before becoming an intermediate pianist ??
I would focus on learning your scales, chords and chord inversions!
Why do you have pop up ads for Scott Houston's piano class on your site?
hii!! Can I ask, what do you think is the best tutorial for a beginner?
Hi, now that it has been a year more - did you find any beginner piano that will be portable and allowed in economy class hand carry airlines?
I want something to learn with as a beginner and will last a lifetime - same with roland fp30x but I want it to be way lighter - either synth or real weighted piano. Pls help ❤
Okay, I just cut down all my fingernails!! That tells me I am taking this very seriously😊🎵👍🤗
Oh awesome!! Kaitlyn has cut hers too, I'm happy to report.
Inspiring
Kaitlyn's pretty
My name is Caitlyn 🤭and I also play the piano
Is there another channel for more advanced players coming? That would be amazing
We have more of our in depth/advanced content in the members area at pianote.com :)
What sheet music do you use? Or do you use a book. I tried to follow along with the sheet music but it doesn’t match up.
OMGoodness, having so much happing at home and Katlyns second lesson has given me hope. Can I ask how to learn the chords as you’re teaching us the scales as you have with boot camp. Sorry for being a baby about this but chronic pain does that to me. I’ve learned that you never ever can read someone’s mind so that’s pretty good in my case, the whipping post here.
Ok. Where’s your second video with Kaytlyn.? Can’t find it.
Kaitlyn's second lesson is in this video. You'll see more of her in our next VLOG (in December).
I'm sorry I don't completely understand the question about chords!
With left hand boot camp you teach by using a repetitive succession of the c chord (sorry if I haven’t name c chord properly) and then a progression going up the keyboard adding in f sharp. After practicing that I wandered thru my children’s old piano lesson book and saw a number of chords. Maybe you can show a lesson doing a similar repetition. Argh... I don’t know. I just know your boot camp is helping my confidence and muscle. I am not the best yet but feeling better about my ability. Thank you a thousand million times for your replies and support.
Keep us updated...im kind of ur new Katylin ....means shadow student :)
Oh we will for sure! We're filming with Kaitlyn again today :)
is this the first video?
Can you please tell me where she got those frames for her specs ??? Please mention the link if possible.
i hope u can teach me , cos its hard for me to underatand my piano teacher 😭😭😭
How high am I? Did I watch the making of the episode while watching the episode at the same time?
teacher is cutieee
Hello! I am Morgan from the Philippines. I've been trying to learn how to play piano by myself for weeks already because I want to play the piano for our church choir. I just want to ask if it will take a year or more for me to learn playing the piano? Thank you very much. 🙂
Hi Morgan! It's possible to make a lot of progress in a year, but having a teacher will be the best way to learn (either online or in person).
Pianote Thank you for the answer. God bless. 🙂
When is the next vlog between y'all???
We release one every month! Kaitlyn will be in the next one don't worry :)
That entire building is there working for the production of Pianote??¿
We have a great team of people here. We are also partners with Drumeo, so many of the people work for both brands :)
Pianote - Y’all hiring?
Hey I am a beginner. Can I use finger no. 234 to play chords instead of 135 as I have a big hand. And it feels better.
You must have a big hand! Lucky! The reason 1-3-5 is so good is that it sets you up really well to be able to change chords quickly when you start playing chord inversions, and it allows you to start playing riffs and fills once you get to that level.
So while 2-3-4 may "seem" easier now, I worry it will make life harder for you down the road.
@@PianoteOfficial thanks
Do you have any lesson on left hand going to vacation 9:45.. How to improve it..?
We don't have a video lesson on that, but it's definitely something to try and remember. Doing some left-hand exercises will help train your hand to stay in the ready position (and not on vacation!).
We have a few left-hand lessons that might help:
czcams.com/video/EDdiOdRAuOQ/video.html&feature=emb_title
czcams.com/video/pQnDDgA73tc/video.html
what song was she playing?
She Used To Be Mine from the musical, “The Waitress”
@@cre8magic253 thanks
I met you on your faster lessons, btw, haven’t mastered them yet except the normal scales you first presented. I told you about my spinal injuries and you helped me so much with my confidence especially since I cannot go out for lessons, thank you a thousand times. But I haven’t found your practice sheets. Can you point me to them? Please?
Hello! I'm so happy the lessons are helping AND that you are enjoying them :) In the members area the downloads are available to the top right of the screen - The download icon looks like a downward pointing arrow :)
Pianote thank you so much, I will figure it out somehow, it’s all new for me, maybe not all but embarrassed how new somethings are. I am trying so hard to make the claw a habit but with egb chord my first finger points out to the air with my little finger as well. Ok, you are going to say practice practice practice wahhhhh...
yes I am feeling much more familiar. Really want you to know, thankyou. Going to tie my fingers in position
Fingernails!
Many have commented on jazz great Art Tatum's flat-fingered playing and one day I noticed on a CZcams close-up that he had the same problem that I have. The nail plate almost overlaps the very edge of the finger tip making trimming the nail back virtually impossible.
You have to do what you have to do.
