The Intermediate Course will enable students to:

• Approach the keyboard as a chords based instrument and lose your dependency on the music score
• Integrate added, suspended and extended chords into your playing
• Use inversions and alternative voicings for smoother playing
• Develop left and right hand rhythm skills to fit the 'groove' of the song
• Improvise using melodic fills, auxiliary and passing notes
• Use string, pads, electric piano and organ sounds
• Develop techniques for leading worship as a keyboard player
• Choose the right equipment for you
• Understand the tools that help you play by ear

Who is it for? If you are already a relatively accomplished player (i.e. already playing regularly in a worship band - including those playing using the full musical score) or have significant classical experiece (say to grade 5 or higher) then this is the right course for you. It begins with a really nice simple lesson introducing how to play using chords and then gets more challenging.
