I can do the right hand but not the left hand too well. Also timing is difficult for me when I try to put left and right together. Do I have to know chords to play? I know basic chords.

Billy H asked:


okay, so there are a few songs i have been dying to learn on the piano. one of them is Hard Times Happen by Josh Kelley. I don’t think sheet music for it even exists. And i’ve looked for guitar tab for it too, but no luck. If anyone can find notes or tab for this song, please send it to me. But, my last resort would be to try to play it by ear, but it seems so hard to do that. Thanks.

I play the piano by ear, i listen to songs and try to play them without any sheet music. My sister said i should learn to read sheet music, but it’s too confusing for me. So which is better?

Kaleelah asked:


I play piano and sing, (go to a high school of the arts) and the other day my piano teacher told us in great detail how extraordinarily hard it is to play by ear. I don’t know about anybody else, but I find this task quite easy. I can listen to a song on the radio and after about twenty minutes playing on the piano, trying to pick out the right notes, be able to play the first part or so of it in both hands. Is this unusual?
Edit: I can also read music, for those who are saying it is best to be able to do both.

I know some ways but I was wondering if there are any other ways that I don’t know of how to play the piano by ear,thanks
O.k I want to thank all of you guys and gals for the ways of how to play by ear and lol I do know what it means that putting your ears on the keys was joke.Anyway unfortunately I already everything of what you people said like listen to a simple music hear out the melody,do trial and run,until it sounds good then just put in the chords.I thought there would be more information on how to play the piano by ear but that’s probably just the main thing.Anyway thanks again people for your help.

I can play songs on a keyboard by ear. With a little trial and error, I can locate the keys or chords I’m looking for. That being said, how do I find the sounds I’m looking for on a guitar? It seems completely alien to me. Please help me understand. I’m going to buy an acoustic guitar to practice on.

Jill asked:


I’ve been playing for piano for a while. I’m wondering if there’s any way you can play by ear because I always want to buy sheet music but my mom won’t let me so I was wondering if I can find a way where I can just hear the music and learn how to play by ear.
I have sheet music for some songs. I was just wondering if you can play it by ear if you have the instrumental recording of the song.

I mean I know how to read music, and I have had piano lessons sence I was six yet I still can’t play piano while looking at music. Yet I can play clarinet, flute and guitar while looking at music or tabs.
Yes I do have perfect pitch. It sounds the way it would if someone was playing by music and actually knew all the notes in the song

I can read sheet music pretty well. I sometimes want to play a song, but can’t find the sheet music on the internet. I think it would be alot easier to play by ear then searching the internet for music. Do you have any tips for playing piano by ear?

Marie asked:


I really love the piano, and I love classical music, but I can’t play by ear. I am wondering if it is possible for someone who cannot play by ear to attain to the level of concert pianist. I would really love to be able to play the classics, but I am wondering if this is possible. Thanks.
