What Does It Mean To Be Self Taught?

Whether formally trained or not, being self-taught is the piano players' rite of passage.

The Self-Taught Path #1 - Chords

Learning chords is where independence on the piano begins.  Everything else in music is dependent upon knowing them.

The Self-Taught Path #2 - Building

Building the traditional way is too time consuming and confusing.  Learn the rules of proximity and never have to look up a chord again.

The Self-Taught Path #3 - Theory

How theory is taught in the most complicated way, what holds you back from seeing the BIG PICTURE and what will set you free when it comes to reading music, playing by ear and improvising.

How the four components of playing be ear all come together and the biggest challenges to overcome.
