How To Use A Sustain Pedal - Piano Lesson (Pianote)

Показать описание

The easiest way to learn piano chords:

The sustain pedal. Once you get comfortable using this pedal, your playing will feel “naked” without it! It can be tricky to develop the coordination at first, but with practice and proper form, it will become second nature. Much like driving a manual transmission vehicle!

The trick is to lift your foot when you hit the new chord, not to put your foot down when you hit the new chord.

Anyone just keep their foot on the pedal and won't let go?

I always use the Pedal when I play the piano but I did not know you’re supposed to move your foot. So I’ll try that next time when I get asked to play the piano at my church. I also play the pipe Oregon to. I cover for our Piano list and organist when ever she’s out.

Thanks for this pedal tip, Lisa. I was deliberately looking for info about a muddy sound.

Thank you very much! Simple and to the point!

I'm nooby, using the "simply piano", have only 3 chapters left and they didn't say nothing about the pedal...
I tried it and it was muddy indeed 🤪
Now I'll try this again, thank you!

Simple. Well explained and beautiful to listen too. Perfect! Thank you.

My problem with it is chords on left hand + melody on the right, it's tricky to use the pedal there

Its easy when you are playing simple songs but what about when you play complicated songs like River flows in you or Nuvole Bianche? I cannot figure it out with the pedal at all so I have to keep it pressed.

Thank you, after practicing for a week, now I can use pedal continuously in any song

Can you give us some tip to use the pedal with arpeggio? I am trying to learn some simple piece by Einaudi and am struggling a bit with my sounds be either cut short or too "muddy"... This channel is absolutely lovely and you are amazing btw : )

But the chord changes like every 4 seconds, does the feet need to move that often? Every single bar? It doesn't seem like that's how often pianists move their feet?

When I lift my foot up the sound drastically change from sustain to choppy even when I press it back immediately. The difference is just too stark 😢

When i play piano and use pedals in the right way, the music sounds sometimes unstasfied, but when i record the music strangely it sounds nice.

Great video! I’m learning how to play my keyboard and this helped a ton ☺️

So in a very short time, you do these *in order*: hand presses the keys for the chord => foot presses pedal ==> hand releases the keys (to go to the next chord) => foot releases pedal, and continue this ? Am I getting it right?

My issue is with keyboards most keyboards seem to adjust so when holding down the pedal the songs alway sound great but when going to a piano you will need more adjustments.
