🎼 Piano Lesson 2 – Left Hand & Both Hands

In Lesson 1, you learned:
✅ Hand posture
✅ Finger numbers
✅ Finding Middle C
✅ Playing a simple right-hand exercise (C–D–E–F–G–F–E–D–C)

Now in Lesson 2, we’ll add the left hand and start using both hands together.

---

1. Left Hand Finger Numbers

In the left hand, the numbers are the same:

• Thumb = 1
• Index = 2
• Middle = 3
• Ring = 4
• Little finger = 5

👉 Place your Left Hand little finger (5) on the C below Middle C.
Your fingers will rest on C–D–E–F–G (same as right hand, but one octave lower).

2. Left Hand Exercise

Play slowly:
C → D → E → F → G → F → E → D → C

This is the same exercise as the right hand, but with the left hand.

---

3. Hands Together (Simple)

Now try:

• Right hand plays C, Left hand plays C at the same time.
• Then D + D, E + E, etc.

So both hands move up and down together.

---

4. Rhythm (4/4 Time)

Keep the same rhythm:

• Each note is 1 beat (quarter note ♩).
• Count 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 as you play.

---

✅ Practice for Lesson 2

• Play the left hand exercise alone.
• Then play both hands together slowly.
• Try to keep the hands even (same speed, same rhythm).

Would you like me to make a Lesson 2 sheet music PDF (with treble clef for right hand + bass clef for left hand), so you can practice reading both staves like real piano notation?
