Lesson script

Cynthia’s studio story: great players can make a record from 1, 4, and 5 on a scrap of paper. In C that is C–F–G. Add 6 for Am color.

Play 1–5–6–4 and 1–4–5–1 in C, then glance at the chart to preview the same numbers in G.

Done when: you can play 1–4–5–1 in C without pausing.

Instrument paths

  • Piano: Key of C numbers → chords.
  • Strings: Roots only on 1 4 5.
  • Percussion: Backbeat optional.

Learning modes

  • Solo child: Loop 1–4–5–1 for two minutes.
  • Child + parent: Parent sings nonsense melody on top.
  • Family: Band roles: chords / bass roots / pulse.
