Know what the pentatonic scale is but not sure how to use it? Want to improvise or compose a really effective piece without having to know much about theory or chords? Get creative with this simple improvisation practice for the piano using the pentatonic scale. In this music performance lesson we explore the pentatonic scale and we learn how to use it by restricting ourselves to using just the black notes on the piano. You’ll soon be making up your own pentatonic music, even if you’re not a confident keyboard player. Learn how to do this and use it as a composing or improvising tool.\n
