Hello all,
when trying to play a song by ear, I usually do ok for the right hand. For the left hand, I may be able to figure out the first two to three chords, but am totally at a loss when things get more complex.
My knowledge of music theory is existent, but rather basic.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Kat
