This video is a breakdown of our notation for the piano main riff of Nightswimming by R.E.M. We encourage our students to move beyond note-for-note copying when playing popular music. We want you to understand the harmony and the patterns of a song before turning to chord charts or sheet music. At that point the sheet music or chart becomes a guide rather than a full set of instructions.
If you enjoyed this video and want to participate in the Sunday reCHORDit with us, join us on Discord! This is where we announce new songs and share our observations throughout the week. Active listening is accessible to anyone regardless of previous experience and is one of the BEST skills for any aspiring musician to develop (pianist or otherwise). There is no charge to join our public channels on Discord and participate!
