It works for this song in C major. Song Title: Fairest Lord Jesus. Have a wonderful day. Thank you for listening.
Neil Archer has been playing organ and piano since 1975. As a kid, he used to struggle terribly reading music, and found writing it even more challenging. Even with private lessons, he found pretty quickly that it was a lot easier for him to listen to a song and work out the chords and melody in his head.
Once he sat down to play, Archer found that the piece was playable. Although he performed on some of the world's best cruise ships for nearly a decade he claims he still can't read music fluently. His YouTube channel is filled with videos of his renditions and arrangements. These are tunes he likes to play and hopefully some we can learn. If you like what you see, please subscribe.
Neil Archer was born and raised in Doncaster, United Kingdom. He performed in piano bars on cruise ships for almost a decade, and currently resides in Jupiter, Florida with his wife Vanessa and two dogs Lizzie and Trevor. Since 2013, he has been uploading piano covers on YouTube. Many of his songs and arrangements are available exclusively by Musicnotes. HIs music can be heard on the world's leading streaming platforms.
Archer was introduced to music at a very young age. He had a wonderful upbringing and Saturdays were just fabulous as this was the day he went to nana and grandads. Although his grandad had no formal training he could play the organ. He could knock out a tune while nana sang the words.
"As a really young kid in the early 1970's my grandad would sit me on the organ stool and I would actually play some of those songs. My grandad saw that there could be some potential from me and he set me up with some organ lessons. They started out in a local music store when I was 7 years old - and then I went on to private tuition on electronica organ and pipe / theater organ until I was 15. I performed my first organ concert when I was 8 years old. I played piano a little as a kid and in church, but it wasn't until I worked on cruise ships that I really had to adapt from organ to piano. I played professionally from 1997 to 2005 on cruise ships, river boats and hotels around the world."

Two of the best piano tutorials on YouTube for Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue are DantheComposer and Shawn Creek. Thank you for listening. Practice makes permanent.
Learn to play scales first before attempting to play music by composers like Gershwin, Bach, and Beethoven. Music means commitment. Thanks for listening.
Answer this question: what is my goal? On a scale of one to ten where do you rank your music level? Students enrolled in music schools and college-level music programs study theory and ear training. Do you spend playing scales? Do you practice piano daily? Where are today's paying jobs for musicians? They are in retail stores as sales associates, keyboard advisors, and churches, schools, private lessons online and in person, and recording studios. I hope this has been helpful. Thank you for listening.

ODE TO OMICRON
Dear Omicron, you make us groan from sea to shining sea.
We know you're there, and yes we care
In each and every way.
The world's a place to celebrate, we'll fight until the dawn.
To bring you down, until you're gone
To live another day.
