Piano Tutorial for "Oh holy night" in the key of A (Part 1)

Hi everyone. I am very excited today for two reasons-firstly I am back with you, doing what I love after a nasty exam and secondly, I have used the break to upgrade the format of my lessons, which means a better experience for you. I have an added Midi Virtual keyboard which highlight the notes!

So, today we will examine chords and progressions for the Christmas carol "Oh Holy night". Keep in mind that this lesson is not aimed at the beginner since two hand chords are being used and a bass player covers the bass notes. Also note that due the breakdown being so long because of all the nice chords, I had to break it into two parts. This will be part 1

So first have a look at the video clip for an example of how to play the song and of what we will be covering in this lesson.
