The 'Secret' To Learning How To Play In Every Key

Let's be clear: There are some people who show know weaknesses no matter what key they're playing in. That's not me lol. When I was coming up there were certain keys I didn't fool with and I dreaded having to play in them. So if I was able to improve in those once dreaded keys than surely you can do the same.

I am not ashamed to say that even though I was about to go to bed, I am walking to my keyboard to practice my A key. 😂😂
Mind you, it is 11pm in South Africa right now. 🇿🇦
Thanks Kevon

"What Key are we in?"
"Oh no. That's the Devil's Key."

I graduated with a degree in classical piano, and was petrified to ever play anything but the page. "You have to spend time with it". Learn to think in a key. I still use the easy trick of the sister/ brother relationships= You can read D-flat and play in D; you can read 3 flats, play in 4 sharps (It all adds up to 7)- C, G, F are a little tougher, but it's a good way to break into transposing. That, and I always take the melody and play in every key right away- helps you make sure you really learn it. Thanks for your humor and great music Kevon.

There’s such an OINTMENT when you play the “A” key, I so felt it.

I was a self-taught, by ear only, 11 year old pastor’s daughter in a tiny home missions church. I was thrown into worship leading because I was the only person who could do it, and my only experience was children’s church up until that point. I was also a natural alto, so… we sang in my keys. 😂 I never learned how to play in any flat key until much later, and even today I struggle with them. But I absolutely love G, A, D, and E. Guitarists liked playing with me. 😂 You have such beautiful talent, and your videos are hilariously on point. I would have loved to have been able to take some lessons from you!

[chicknurch]

After watching this video i almost feel a little stupid for looking for a secret to learn the keys. When in reality, it’s just practice. Always good to be reminded to go back to the basics, great video!

I always said that gospel
Musicians are the best musicians in the world. To quickly adjust and follow a singer, it is amazing!

"BLACK KEYS you don't have to be racist to the black keys cuz it's black😂😂...say no to keys discrimination ....you gotta love all the keys😎

[gilbertchordds]

Lol... The preaching piano teacher

That's inspiring mahn😅

Also.. keys are relational as well. For instance... Eb, Ab, Bb, and Db all feel similar... and if you’re good in one, it’s easier playing in the other keys with the same feel. D, E, and A feel similar. F# and B nat feels related. C, G and F feel similar.

Another trick is ... to pick out one song that you really like that is song or played in a key that you don’t like and learn it in that key. There is theory in any song that you pick out and build from there.

Also... remember position feels awkward in certain keys.., therefore your STYLE for playing in certain keys has to do with inversions. Let’s say your “style of playing in Ab is generally open... but open may not work as well in E.. so rearrangement of playing the same song in a closed position in E creates the feel and comfort zone you’re trying to achieve. So position comfort in one key also works for certain other keys .. meaning playing in keys you don’t like .. because you have to invert the chords.. it expands your playing style all together. It’s like ... E has something to bring to the table to EVERYBODY that Ab didn’t bring.., and D makes you approach a song totally differently... which translates to all the other keys hi five’n D like ... wow .. thanks for the info bro ... I never thought of it that way ....

[kenmulunda]

Ur preaching kevon😊😊 we hardly know some chords and havent spent time with them and expect results😂😂😂
SPEND TIME WITH A😂

[nhbeautyzone]

I wasted my first year of practice abusing the transpose button. The reason being that I just started learning and had to play in church, so my piano teacher thought it would be quicker to learn all songs in C and use transpose button. Then I stopped playing for 5 years when I moved country and one day I decided to pick up piano again and learn all my keys. I now can play any song in any key. Practice is key!

[lovebug]

This feels like you preaching about spending time with God and developing intimacy with Him. That's the word I heard.
