Simple Exercise For Practicing & Memorizing Chords

- If you have problems remembering how to play simple triad chords (C major, F minor, Bb major, etc) on the piano, then I have a great exercise for you based on the circle of fourths/fifths to help you memorize those chords and train your playing! Basically, it involves playing the chords throughout the circle: C to F, F to Bb, Bb to Eb and so forth. This will also help you practice your inversions.
If you need a refresher on how to build triads (major and minor chords mostly), please visit my Piano Quickie series to get you started. Here's a link to the playlist:

I've been learning on my own since the pandemic started. This is the best lesson so far. I'm sixty and always wanted to learn to play piano.
Me too, but I started working seriously at piano about 1-1/2 years ago. Keep at it. It takes time but it's worth it.
...music comes from the heart...one can learn at any age 🎶🎹💙
Enjoy man, keep learning :)
Hope you’ve been having fun!! :D
Same, I am 47, started just 3 months ago,
I'm 66 and have 2 pianos that I never used. I think this is my gateway to actually beginning to touch those pianos.
Sir, I can't even effort to buy even one piano but
U have two..hehw
Sell me one of them.
I was born in 1951 which makes me 67. I've decided to learn the piano and I'm thrilled that I've found someone else on the same wavelength. All the beast with yours. I'm still looking for a second hand electric piano that I can afford. I would really like a Yamaha but we shall see what comes up. Regards, Chris.
Henpu Zo. I think you mean "afford" regards, Chris.
Me too, just add 10 more years to yours!!!
What a great way to learn inversion patterns. And understanding that playing the third degree in the left hand makes the harmony rich was an eye opener. I'm practicing this every day. Thank you so much!
thank u Sir ...i will practice this exercise...this will help me in the church im playing in now Amen...
Awesome lesson! I can follow your instructions exactly giving the fact I had taken piano lessons previously. I must say your lessons are very clear to the point and worthwhile. I have stopped playing for over 15 years but you have rekindled my interest in coming back. Thank you.
Welcome back, your piano has been waiting for you :)
this IS good for beginners!! I had no idea what I was doing and as I playing my eyes were opened

Interesting practicing idea. Not for total beginners - you need to know music theory basics, but if you know them, then you'll grab the idea. Thank you.
This lesson is genius! Didn't think I got it at first but I figured it out and feel like I have a way better understanding of music.
Thank you so much for this. I was just working on this but wasn’t thinking circle of fourths. I was just hearing it. Now I can really apply it.
Thank you so much! I'm using to practice my chords. God bless you man!
Your instructional video is amazing! I really need to develop a discipline to my scales and progressions. I play a jazz flute, and inorder to get better at improvisation, I am convinced that learning with your videos, is great practice to get me there. Thank you so very very much!!!
Excellent,your each 10 to15 minutes video is a great investment for me.Thanks.
I am gonna practice this note for note on the guitar in every position. What a lovely clear and musical exercise, and just listening to it gives me nostalgia for montage scenes in nineteen eighties teen movies. Your work isn't just a lesson for pupils it is a lesson for teachers, and would be videographers. THANKS.
You're welcome David. Not so sure about my videography, but I'll acceot your compliments about my lessons :)
Excellent teaching video! God bless you sir!
Great idea for a piano exercise! Very well explained and demonstrated for beginners! Thank you!
Great breakdown and idea for working on chord transitions! Thank you for doing this video
I understand now after watching a second time. Great exercise. Thank you.
A nice clear, simple demonstration, thanks.

+josh barnes Cool, very happy to hear that!
Thanks a lot. I will try tonight!!
Thank you so much for these videos - they are like none other. Your sister's jewelry is lovely!!
Thanks Emma! I'll let my sister know :)
Wow! Thanx a lot. You have made it so easy, appreciated.
Thank you! Great exercise!
Your teaching is amazing as always you are the best
Try same thing with Right hand 1st position then 2nd position with Left hand same position. Vice versa change left hand to root postion and 2nd position. Further mix all the positions and you shall have more combinations with totally different fingering.....this works fantastic to master.... thank you so much....
Thank you, much appreciated 🙏
Thanks! Gotta apply this! Hugs from Philippines!
Heyy hwr u
I like this. It's basically doing a V - I progression. C to F is also a fifth down. It's a fifth going counterclockwise on the circle of fifths. Each chord becomes the V chord of the subsequent chord.
Good afternoon sir. Thank u so much for the lesson of simple exercise for practicing nd memorizing chords. For those who knows the piano already for such people it will be very easy to learn. But for the biginners it will take time to grasp ur teaching. Anyway hats off for ur scarifice leaving all ur work nd showing interest, nd having patience to teach us nd having lot of love towards the people/viewers. Awaiting more lessons from ur kindself. Take care. Bye sir.
suvarnaratna florence yr on spot. I am a actually beginner and it’s hard for me to figure out the rest that he left. But I can do it just need a bunch of time. Any advice for me? Or just be patient ewww
Very helpful, I saw improvement quickly!! Thanks for the lesson.
Man U R Gold.
Sir, could you please post the answers to this exercise. I tried doing it, but it sounds off. Confirmation of my notes would be a great help. Thank you. BTW, best piano lessons I have found!
Sir, you are an excellent teacher!
That will not teach you piano
Thanks Assaf! Great exercise! While practicing i found, that starting the second iteration in the second inversion of the chord lets me transition to the third iteration starting chord more smoothly.
Great video!!! simple exercises but very effective to memorizing chords
You r AWESOME!! THANK YOU ,much appreciated
ajaj !! yes i understand now, it made full circle from C to C. great exercise thanks!!
Yoh the minor version sounds really dope💥💥
Thank you for making this tutorial!!
Thank you for this exercise in 4this!
Very useful. Thank you!!!
I just wanna thank you for the idea. I will play though all 12 major scales and 12 minor scales in this challanging way. If I have problem with the "descending chords" I will play arpeggio with each of them while singing their vocals or system that is do re mi fa so la ti do
New sub here:) just found your channel and your videos really help me, I'm still a beginner and learning new things every day. Thanks for all you do. Merry Christmas!!

My students will love this upgrade to chord progressions. Your teaching is clear and simple. Love that you include timing and rhythm. I am trying to include plying by 'ear' to our classical lessons. Thank you. Maybe re-engage interest.
Excellent, thanks!!
Thank you MangoldProject. You teach at the right tempo. Thank you again.
Glad you enjoyed it!
simply great
Pretty good! Thanks!
This has helped me greatly! Thank you!
Sure!
Dis is awesome!!!
Thank you so much from Wales, your teaching skills are are excellent, you have helped me to progress and maybe one day I will be playing music on my keyboard.
Don't say "one day", say "next week" and then practice and make it a reality.
this is helpful, thank you
Great idea and the cute cat added to the interest lol
It's about time all my freeloading cats earn their pay :)
I sure as hell learned. My god what an eye opener
Cool. Always happy to hear my tutorials have benefited someone.
excellent lesson
Thank you sir....u jhus made me a pro
Great lesson!
Nice. Heard song ideas in that immediately.
You mean...like the theme from "Growing Pains"? czcams.com/video/liFmMcmigsQ/video.html
@@realkoko-loco no
Hi your methodology is very good.....unlike other videos with don’t go into so much detail and breakdown
awesome! this is a big help - thank you :)
Gracias. Un saludo desde la Ciudad de México!
yessss Thank you!!
great , thanks
Thanks sir ... Great job ...
Wow, great lesson. Merci beaucoup. I had asked how you knew to go into inversions on a comment on another of your videos, and voila.
This is amazing!! Thanks for the lesson
You're welcome.
Thank you man
Recently got a keyboard and this has been extremely helpful, thank you!
You're welcome, Tiim (never saw a Tiim with two i's before!)
I wanna make a joke about most Tims I know having two eyes, but it doesn't really transfer in the written word does it?
lol i get it
What I like to do is a chorded chromatic scale on mallets where C ( the bottom note of the chord) and F ( the top note of the chord), which are a 4th apart which sounds cool on marimba, vibes, xylo, maybe harpsichord, and piano
Fabulous tutorial 👍
Love It.
Thank you very much
Thanks 👍👍👍❤❤❤
Great lesson thanks u so much sir. Please more excercise🙏.❤❤
You have amazing content sir. Thank you!
Thanks man, I appreciate your positive support.
Fantastic tutorial! One question..with the right hand, you generally use 1,2,4 fingering for all triads in the video, is this the best way to practice it? Alternatively maybe 1,2,4 to 1,3,5 - which would you recommend? Many thanks!
Thanks🙏
Great exercise, tks!
