Lesson 4: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in C, F, & GTwinkle Twinkle Little Star uses six of the seven notes in a scale, making it a nice piece for learning notes and becoming familiar with any particular key. Learn and memorize it in C, F, and G, hands separately and hands together. This is a great piece for very young piano students because they know it, and they get to use all five fingers with (mostly) simple step-wise motion. Instructions for learning a piece on the piano: -play each line with right hand (fingerings written above note names) until it is easy and/or memorized. -play each line with left hand (fingerings written below note names) until it is easy and/or memorized. -play each line with both hands until it is easy and/or memorized. -string the lines together until you can play the whole piece. Keep it slow until you are comfortable and familiar with it. Then, start playing it faster, working up to an appropriate tempo for that piece. -Regardless of tempo, relax your arms & shoulders and keep it smooth and flowing.
