FP Background Guidelines

Guidelines for background playing


Avoiding the spotlight

This video covers specific tips on how to avoid drawing attention to yourself or the song you’re leading toward.


Eliminating extra transitions and distractions

In this session, we’ll discuss some ideas for nailing the right tempo, clearly identifying the key, and something else you’re responsible for practicing.

For extra help in identifying a song’s key, please check out this Chord Reference Sheet and an extra video from Fluent Piano Chords, found below (you can skip to 40 seconds in).


Wrap-up
