II. About the Chords & Melody

1. Audio for learning the chords 

We are playing chords in inversions with this lesson.  Many students practice
chords and their inversions, but are never taught how use them in their music.
Once you learn the value of inverting chords, how & why, you have unlimited
choices in arranging.  It's so much fun to let your creativity run wild!
These lessons are taught in the Intermediate Piano Lessons.
