This video tutorial is intended for creative people who are eager to create their own piano music, but haven't got a clue when it comes to piano. ![]() No time to watch the video right this second? Pin this post so you can come back for it later! (And don't worry, if you'd rather learn to create your spooky music just for your own enjoyment, there's no need to perform it for anyone at all!) So it's time for you to proudly embrace your identity as a creator of music! Stop telling yourself you're only a “real” pianist if you can play “real” songs. How do you think all the famous songs you know and love were created in the first place? Somebody, at some point, “just made them up!” So stop telling yourself making up your own music doesn't count. And my Halloween-themed video tutorials will have you creating your own spooky piano music in no time!Īnd if you're thinking to yourself something along the lines of, “but improvisation doesn't count because it's not real songs” … Just. Improvisation is the fastest and easiest way for anyone, especially adult learners, to jumpstart their piano learning. Yes, even if you've never touched a piano before in your life! ![]() “You haven't even been taking lessons? You made that up yourself? Just now? On the spot? But it was so good! It sounded like a real song to me! If you can do that already, imagine what you'll be able to do if you take lessons and practice!” I'm here to tell you, this can be your reality! Instead of being disappointed like you thought they would be, they're now even more impressed! I just started learning and this is just some stuff I made up on the spot. ![]() You feel a little embarrassed and avert your eyes while you mumble, “Well, I can't really play anything else. Then they ask you the question you've been dreading: “What else can you play for us?” They ooh and ahh and tell you how amazing your playing was! You sit down at the piano and start playing, and several of the guests visibly light up and stop talking as they listen to your spooky music. How fun would it be to sit at a piano, surrounded by friends and family (and maybe some strangers?) at a Halloween-themed get-together or party, and really wow them with your new piano skills? So you want to create some spooky Halloween piano music, but you don't know the first thing about piano? Many thanks for considering this resource.For pianists of all levels who want to take their spooky Halloween piano music to the next level after watching Part 1 and/or Part 2 of the series. ![]() I greatly value feedback, suggestions, and enquiries from all of my colleague-customers around the world, and I invite you to contact me by email at should you wish to ask me anything about my work. I am extremely proud of all my resources and I endeavour to publish work of only the highest quality for you. It’s a whole lot of fun and students love it – and with full answers and basic guidance provided, you’ll love it too! In the process of completing these activities, students get to use their skills in, and knowledge of, treble and bass staff notation, note durations, instruments, composers, and musical symbols – PLUS there’s elements of numeracy, literacy, and history for some great blended learning during this spooky period. Halloween is coming, and a prestigious Witches Coven are making their annual arrangements to mark the occasion! There are ghosts, ghouls, potions, pumpkins, costumes and… a cat! A cat called Teasel who, for whatever reason, is causing absolute chaos and getting in the way of the Coven’s preparations for the big day! Students are invited to unravel Teasel’s mischief, restoring potions, price tags, playlists, and much more, in order to allow Witches Clara, Wendy, and Abigail to complete their well-rehearsed preparations, and ultimately to save Halloween! This is a whole lot of Halloween fun for your music students! Depending upon ability and age group, there is enough in this pack to keep students occupied and engaged for 1 or 2 whole 1-hour lessons, making it perfect for Halloween Week! It’s aimed at Years 6 to 8, but it can work with any students who have a basic knowledge of music notation.
