Bass clef helps us notate the area of the piano keyboard where our left hand spends most of its time – that is, the octaves below middle C. The tutorial includes a full explanation of the lines and spaces of the bass stave and (in the accompanying PDF) an exercise to help you learn them.
Then I move on to covering the scale of C major in both right and left hands. Pianists (like most musicians) often complain about scales – and they can seem dull and pointless to learners – but they are incredibly important, because they help both physically and in understanding and internalising music theory.
