What it concludes

• Brain and hands feeling disconnected at the beginning of learning piano is completely normal.
• Practicing the musical alphabet both forwards and backwards helps you navigate the keyboard faster.
• Learning to read chord charts and play chord songs early makes playing more accessible and enjoyable for beginners.
