00:00:00

You know what's crazy? I spent years

00:00:02

learning piano the traditional way,

00:00:03

reading every single note line by line,

00:00:06

trying to play songs with both hands

00:00:08

exactly as they were written. I followed

00:00:10

all the rules. I practiced my scales,

00:00:12

and I even did those hand and finger

00:00:14

exercises. But no one ever told me that

00:00:16

reading full sheet music was one of the

00:00:18

slowest and most frustrating ways to

00:00:20

actually sound good on piano. It wasn't

00:00:22

until I discovered a completely

00:00:24

different way to play music, something

00:00:26

most beginners are never shown, that

00:00:28

everything changed. Suddenly, I could

00:00:30

sit down at the piano and just play

00:00:31

without spending hours decoding notes

00:00:34

between both hands. And once I started

00:00:36

using this method with my students, they

00:00:37

started progressing faster than I ever

00:00:39

thought possible. I'm talking full songs

00:00:42

sounding beautiful in just a few weeks.

00:00:44

So, in this video, I want to pull back

00:00:45

the curtain on what's actually slowing

00:00:48

you down. Why traditional sheet music

00:00:50

might be the reason you feel clumsy,

00:00:51

frustrated, or like piano is just not

00:00:54

clicking. and I'll show you the exact

00:00:55

way I help beginners skip the overwhelm

00:00:57

and start playing the songs they love

00:01:00

way faster than you'd expect. Most

00:01:02

people think learning piano means

00:01:03

starting young, practicing scales for

00:01:06

hours and reading every single note off

00:01:08

a page like it's a second language. And

00:01:09

that's exactly how I was taught. I took

00:01:11

piano lessons from third grade all the

00:01:14

way through my senior year of high

00:01:15

school. Then I majored in piano in

00:01:17

college, classical training, the whole

00:01:19

nine yards. And even after all of that,

00:01:21

I was still a bad site reader. I could

00:01:23

play beautifully once I started learning

00:01:25

a piece. Here's an example of me playing

00:01:27

Shopan's Fantasy Impromptu at 17.

00:01:32

[Music]

00:01:44

But if I was reading a brand new song,

00:01:46

I'd freeze. It felt like a code I had to

00:01:49

decode line by line. And honestly, I

00:01:51

thought something was wrong with me. But

00:01:53

here's the truth. It wasn't me. It was a

00:01:55

method. I was trained in a system that

00:01:57

was built for concert pianists, not

00:01:59

everyday adults who just want to sit

00:02:01

down and play their favorite songs. Even

00:02:03

legendary musicians have said the same.

00:02:05

Billy Joel, who took 12 years of

00:02:07

classical piano lessons, said this on

00:02:10

the podcast, "Here's the thing with Alec

00:02:12

Baldwin.

00:02:13

>> So, I overplay on my right hand. My

00:02:15

technique is horrible. I can't read

00:02:17

music. I never really got

00:02:18

>> You don't read music? I used to, but I

00:02:20

don't anymore. I forgot how. I started

00:02:23

taking lessons when I was about four or

00:02:24

five, and I went up till I was about 16.

00:02:28

So, it was uh almost 12 years of of

00:02:31

classical piano lessons. I loved it, but

00:02:34

I just when you become a teenager,

00:02:36

everything changes. I didn't want to

00:02:38

read other people's dots anymore.

00:02:40

>> This is really fascinating considering

00:02:42

many people think Billy Joel is one of

00:02:44

the greatest popular pianists of our

00:02:46

time. So, if you've ever felt behind,

00:02:48

clumsy, or like you're just not musical,

00:02:50

this is not your fault. You were just

00:02:52

never shown the approach that actually

00:02:54

works for adults and regular people. The

00:02:56

approach that skips the overwhelm and

00:02:58

starts with how real musicians actually

00:03:00

play music. If you want to play like

00:03:02

Billy Joel or Elton John without getting

00:03:04

lost in traditional sheet music, I made

00:03:06

a free training that shows you the

00:03:08

direct path on how to get there from

00:03:10

absolute scratch. Comment free training

00:03:12

below and I'll send it to you. Let's

00:03:14

take a look at something real for a

00:03:15

second. some sheet music for She's

00:03:17

Always a Woman by Billy Joel. At first

00:03:19

glance, it's a little overwhelming. Tiny

00:03:21

notes packed across two staves. The left

00:03:24

hand buried in dense bass patterns. The

00:03:26

right hand jumping octaves, weaving

00:03:28

through accidentals, and syncopation.

00:03:30

And you're supposed to read, process,

00:03:32

and play all of this simultaneously in

00:03:34

real time. Even if you're practicing

00:03:36

consistently, it can take 5 to 10 years

00:03:38

of training just to read this kind of

00:03:41

score fluently. That is not an

00:03:42

exaggeration. Now, traditional sheet

00:03:44

music absolutely has its place. It's

00:03:47

perfect for playing classical music

00:03:48

exactly as a composer wrote it, like I

00:03:50

did with Shopan's Fantasy Impromptu, and

00:03:52

I genuinely love that. I studied it for

00:03:55

years. But if you're an adult who just

00:03:56

wants to sit down and play your favorite

00:03:58

songs to unwind at the end of the day

00:04:00

and enjoy making music, this system, the

00:04:02

full score classical method, wasn't

00:04:05

designed for you. It's detailed, rigid,

00:04:07

and honestly kind of joyless when you're

00:04:09

trying to feel the music. What if

00:04:11

instead you learn something like this?

00:04:13

No cramped notation, no dozens of

00:04:15

measures per page, just the melody line,

00:04:18

lyrics, and chords written above. That's

00:04:20

it. This is called a lead sheet, and

00:04:22

it's one of the most powerful tools in

00:04:24

modern music. If you've never seen one

00:04:26

before, here's what you're looking at.

00:04:28

The top line is the melody. It shows the

00:04:31

tune you'd sing or you'd play in your

00:04:32

right hand.

00:04:39

The letters above the staff, those are

00:04:41

your chords. They tell you what to play

00:04:43

in the left hand or how to harmonize the

00:04:46

melody.

00:04:51

And the lyrics underneath help guide

00:04:53

timing and phrasing if you're singing or

00:04:55

accompanying someone. If I played a

00:04:57

little of this lead sheet, it would

00:04:58

sound like this.

00:05:11

But the best part is it's clean, simple,

00:05:14

and leaves space for you to make it your

00:05:16

own. It leaves room for creativity. I

00:05:18

could have also played it like this.

00:05:33

Or you could do it like this.

00:05:36

[Music]

00:05:49

That's why professional pianists,

00:05:50

gigging musicians, and even music school

00:05:53

grads use lead sheets all the time. Jazz

00:05:55

musicians, lead sheets are their

00:05:57

language. Pop and rock session players,

00:06:00

lead sheets. Even Berkeley College of

00:06:02

Music says lead sheets are often the

00:06:04

most efficient form for communicating

00:06:07

musical ideas because they're not about

00:06:09

perfection. They're about creativity and

00:06:11

it's a heck of a lot easier to read.

00:06:13

Think of it this way. Traditional sheet

00:06:15

music is like a movie script. Every

00:06:17

line, every pause, every detail has to

00:06:20

be followed exactly. There's no room for

00:06:23

spontaneity. But a lead sheet, that's

00:06:25

like a story outline. It gives you the

00:06:27

essentials, the characters, the plot,

00:06:29

the core structure, and then lets you

00:06:31

bring it to life however you want. Want

00:06:33

to make it jazzy? Go for it. Want to

00:06:35

slow it down or add your own flare? You

00:06:38

can. It grows with you instead of boxing

00:06:40

you in. And here's the cool part. Let's

00:06:42

go back to the full sheet music for

00:06:44

She's Always a Woman Again. See all

00:06:46

these notes in the left hand? That's

00:06:48

literally just an E flat major chord.

00:06:51

That's it. Just like it says in the lead

00:06:53

sheet. The next chord is B flat, just

00:06:55

like the lead sheet. So instead of

00:06:56

reading 10 different notes, you could

00:06:58

just see E flat and play it your way.

00:07:01

This isn't cheating. This is how real

00:07:03

musicians actually play. And for adult

00:07:06

beginners, it's a gamecher. One of my

00:07:08

students, Mark, told me he took

00:07:10

traditional piano lessons for years as a

00:07:12

kid and never got anywhere. But once he

00:07:14

learned with lead sheets, he surprised

00:07:16

his wife by playing their wedding song

00:07:18

from memory. If you'd like to see my

00:07:20

exact process on how I take a student

00:07:22

from zero to being able to play lies

00:07:24

beautifully, comment free training in

00:07:26

the comments below and I'll send it to

00:07:28

you. Now, maybe you're thinking, "But I

00:07:30

want to play real pieces like classical

00:07:32

music." You absolutely can. Let me show

00:07:35

you.

00:07:38

[Music]

00:07:50

Even something as iconic as Fiss can be

00:07:53

played beautifully from a lead sheet.

00:07:54

The left hand, it's outlining the

00:07:56

harmony. The right hand is that

00:07:58

unforgettable melody. That's the power

00:08:00

of a lead sheet. Melody and chords. No

00:08:03

fluff, no overwhelm. And no, it's not

00:08:06

cheating. It's how real musicians

00:08:08

actually play. So, the question isn't,

00:08:10

can I play classical, it's do I want to

00:08:13

spend months learning every single note

00:08:15

the way one person wrote it, or do I

00:08:18

want to understand the music, play it

00:08:20

faster, and make it my own? Lead Sheets

00:08:22

give you the foundation and the freedom.

00:08:24

And you'd be shocked how many

00:08:26

professionals use them every day. It's a

00:08:28

core part of what I teach in my piano

00:08:30

accelerator program. And once you get

00:08:32

it, you can play anything from Coldplay

00:08:34

to Beethoven faster. You don't need to

00:08:37

be born with natural talent. You don't

00:08:39

need to practice for hours a day. And

00:08:41

you definitely don't need to follow some

00:08:43

rigid, outdated system just to play

00:08:45

music you actually enjoy. And if you're

00:08:47

someone who loves the idea of playing

00:08:48

real music, like classical pieces or

00:08:51

iconic ballads, I want you to know you

00:08:54

can still get there. Using lead sheets

00:08:56

and chord-based playing first will help

00:08:58

you reach that goal faster because

00:09:00

you're building real fluency and freedom

00:09:02

at the keys. So, if you've been burned

00:09:04

out by old methods or you're worried you

00:09:06

won't stick with it again, this is

00:09:07

different. You'll actually want to keep

00:09:09

going because you'll hear progress fast.

00:09:12

You'll sound good early and you'll

00:09:13

finally feel like a piano player. Most

00:09:15

people were handed the most complicated

00:09:17

version of piano and told, "Start here.

00:09:20

Do it exactly this way. Good luck." But

00:09:22

that's not how music is supposed to

00:09:24

feel. Music is supposed to feel joyful

00:09:26

and creative, something you like to do

00:09:28

for you, not something that leaves you

00:09:30

frustrated every time you sit down to

00:09:32

play. And the truth is, you don't need

00:09:33

perfect technique. You don't need to

00:09:35

read 10,000 notes a minute. You don't

00:09:38

need to be the next Beethoven. You just

00:09:39

need a method that meets you where you

00:09:41

are and actually makes sense for how

00:09:43

adults learn. I've seen total beginners

00:09:45

go from I don't think I'm musical to

00:09:47

playing full beautiful songs they love

00:09:49

in just a few weeks. So, if you've been

00:09:51

telling yourself it's too late, it's

00:09:52

not. This might be the first time

00:09:54

someone's actually shown you a way that

00:09:56

works. And if something in you is

00:09:57

saying, I want to try this, I hope you

00:09:59

listen to that. If you're curious how to

00:10:01

go from zero to confidently playing lead

00:10:03

sheets, comment free training below.

00:10:05

I'll send you my stepby-step road map,
