My favourite rhythm pattern for beginners

Playing along with your favourite songs is the best way to learn piano, but it can be difficult to get started if you don’t know what to do with your hands.

Today I’m sharing a really simple piano accompaniment pattern that’s easy to learn but has a huge range of applications if you want to play music by ear.

Check out this video for a tutorial and demonstration of the rhythm pattern.

If you’d like a print out of the rhythm pattern for your own piano, you can download it for free here:

Once you’re comfortable with this rhythm pattern, your next step is to figure out which chords go along with your song. This can usually be found pretty easily with an internet search.

Have fun!
