Piano Accompaniment
Our Techniques
Piano accompaniment is an important part of piano playing that requires a range of techniques, patterns, and combinations.
It is the art of playing along with other musicians or vocalists to create a cohesive sound. It requires the player to be aware of the other instruments and voices in order to provide an appropriate accompaniment.
The various techniques used in piano accompaniment vary depending on the style and genre being performed. From classical music to jazz, rock and pop, there are different patterns and combinations that must be mastered in order to provide a great accompaniment.
It’s surprising how much harder it is to play with a group than it is to play solo!
Playing with a group requires a lot more coordination and teamwork than playing solo. You have to be able to communicate effectively, follow directions, and work together to make the music come alive.

Our course will explore some of the most common techniques used in piano accompaniment as well as some tips for becoming a successful accompanist. Topics Covered
- 1. Basics of Piano Accompaniment
- 2. Techniques for Creating Accompaniment
- 3. Tips for Effective Accompaniment
