Musical Structures

How to Use Music's Building Blocks to Play Anything By Heart

Playing music shouldn’t be so hard to learn. Sadly though, for many people, it forever remains a “cloud of sound.” These lessons lift the cloud to show you the fundament hiding below and how to use that framework to quickly learn, remember and play any song by heart.

Chords

How to Build, Grab and "Say" Music's "Words"

Most budding pianists don’t sound like the real deal at all, because they approach music on a by-note-basis. Real musicians play by Chords, which is why they sound so full.
These lessons teach you the way real musicians play, using the full harmonic spectrum, which opens the door to playing full and rich-sounding.

Patterns

How to Add Rhythm and Flow to Your Playing

Unfortunately, for most people, creating flowing piano parts is like trying to speak fluent Chinese - hard, at best. These lessons will teach the building blocks that allow you to turn any set of notes into a flowing, grooving, moving piano part.

Scales

How to Use Music's "Dialects" To Add Color & Flair

Many people consider scales to be boring sequences of notes that have to be repeated endlessly, purely to create nimble-fingeredness. The lessons in this "sub" layer, will show you that scales are far from boring when you use them in the correct ways - as musical dialects for a profound musical understanding.

Extensions

How to Spice Up and Sophisticate Your Chords

Unfortunately, most chords played on piano still sound bland. These lessons will show you the next phase in voicing, “sophisticating” your chords to take them from juvenile to mature.

Embellishments

How to "Perk Up" Your Playing With Licks & Fills

Licks, riffs, fills. Alluring to most and - as nothing but “cheap tricks” - misused by many. These lessons will show you the correct ways, mindset, origin and application of any type of improvisation - from a quick grace note, to a full-blown solo.

Re:Harmonization

How to Use Music's Building Blocks to (re)Write Music

Expressing yourself through music shouldn’t be a mystery. Sadly though coming up with anything not written on paper remains a guessing game for most people. These lessons will teach the different value each chord has within a song and how you can use that to your advantage when composing yourself - either when improvising, adapting a known tune, or when writing your own, full-blown songs.

How to play anything you want, by ear.

We will learn Pop Piano tricks, traits and techniques to actually understand music. This works on ALL songs and you are free to choose your own songs, to do the exercises and assignments with. 

All of my teaching, including this premium program, you'll find inside of Piano Lingo (our premium online Pop-Piano academy) is based on the Hack the Piano methodology.

Chord Piano Formula is my complete flagship program. It represents the full bundle of what I have to offer, synergistically integrated and optimized for the fastest route to your piano success.

The Chord Piano BluePrint course represents the full core curriculum to learn to play pop-piano by Chords, Ear & Heart - i.e. play in the exact same way that your favorite artists play too.

It's a completely unique system & approach worth 10+ years of piano education (if it were taught anywhere else) that can be finished in mere months. 

See the many 5-star reviews from students who keep telling us they learned more about music in weeks from this program than what they learned in their entire life from other lessons combined.

The included 12-week/month implementation MasterClass BootCamp & the rest of the Chord Piano Mastery-collection allow for a deep-dive into the world of chord-piano, putting Piano Hacking into practice in a guided, structured, step-by-step way. It will help you actually implement and integrate everything.

The Chord Piano BluePrint (Complete Edition) is our core self-paced curriculum, offering lifetime access to key modules for mastering pop piano.

The Chord Piano Formula (Gold Edition) includes everything in the BluePrint (lifetime access) plus one full year access to Chord Piano Mastery, which adds the Chord Piano MasterClass (seven integrated BootCamps) and the Vault, featuring advanced workshops and practice sessions for skill-building, integration and practical application.

No.

Chord Piano Mastery is an add-on membership that helps you implement and apply everything you learn in the BluePrint.

The programs are integrated. Plus - without the BluePrint, Mastery would make little sense.

You can sign up for both at the same time with the bundle offer we call "Chord Piano Formula."

This includes both the BluePrint and Chord Piano Mastery.

Whenever you want them to!

These are so-called "Like Live" editions of our (previously held live) premium BootCamps, meaning that - even though these are the exact same programs - they are based on recordings and there is thus no need to wait for anything to go live. 

These LikeLive editions represent an incredible value. 

People have paid up to €999 to attend a live edition of JUST ONE of the NINE* BootCamps included with Chord Piano Formula, with the downside of having to wait for their actual cohort to start, show up on specific times for classes etc...

Now THAT's a deal

*the MasterClass BootCamp is a merger of: the OnRamp BootCamp (3 prior editions), the Platinum BootCamp (3 prior editions) and Singer/Songwriters' BootCamp (1 prior edition)  - that's 7 prior programs that were previously sold for up to €999 each... an absolutely insane value.

€299 to sign up today.

Then -only if you want to stay a member and keep access to all "Mastery" components after a year- €99/year.

Since we are Amsterdam -and thus Europe- based, you'll be charged in Euros. The dollar price depends on the current conversion rate and optionally costs your bank or credit card company charges for the conversion. These costs are outside of our control unfortunately and conversion rates vary by day. 

Please note that we cover any taxes.

Yes. However, you'll miss out on the savings you'll get by singing up for Chord Piano Formula. 

For owners of our BluePrint we have the option to subscribe to Chord Piano Mastery at the regular €99/year subscription fee. 

Lifetime access to the BluePrint, one year access to Chord Piano Mastery.

After a year, you can keep access to Chord Piano Mastery for €99/yr. 

If you decide to cancel your membership, you will still keep access to the Chord Piano BluePrint, but you will lose access to everything Chord Piano Mastery (BootCamps, Workshops, Practice Sessions, Licks). 

No, you will keep access to the BluePrint regardless of what you decide after a year. 

Chord Piano Formula (Gold) is: 

  • Buy the BluePrint Course
    +
  • Get one year Chord Piano Mastery.

After one year you can keep your Mastery membership active for €99/year, which will sustain your access to BootCamps, the MasterClass, Deep-Dive Workshops, the Virtual Practice Room (Practice sessions) and Licks. 

If you decide to cancel your membership, you will still keep access to the BluePrint.  

Everything in this program is scalable and using the 6 pillars of chord-piano, we'll deconstruct and then build everything we do back up, gradually growing in level of difficulty. 

You can "stop" (stick to) the level that's challenging, but not too difficult for you, which -whatever level that might be for you- will get you sounding very close to original records you listen to. 

You can then redo the course later, going up to the next level.

Everything you need to know to play and sound like your favorite pop-piano singer-songwriters is there.

Everything you already know is easy to skip, or adapt to make it suitable for a level more advanced. (plus - repetition has never hurt a soul).

Let me ask you this: Have you ever seen your favorite artist look at sheet music at any of his or her performances? Exactly. 

That's because they play pop-piano: piano by chords. They know their chords, harmony-theory, voicings, patterns and how to play with those. This is how they form all of their piano parts and this is exactly what you'll learn in this program too.

Chord-piano. No sheet-music (only chord-sheets every now and then).

That's not a question! 🙂 

Just kidding. You can ask me anything by simply sending an email to coen@piano-couture.com

People Really Love It
Before using Piano Hacking, I thought music was just a bunch of notes on the page that I had to strenuously decipher in order to play. The Chord Piano BluePrint taught me to create music within the structure of chords. I learned that chords have patterns and relationships. I now interact with music on a whole new level! 
Rachel
Piano Hacker
Before coming across your BootCamp, I had been learning on my own for many, many, many years.  All I had to show for it was frustration and a very halted and hesitant sound.   After a few short months, your approach of “Chording” and music theory has replaced all of that with a significant improvement in my freedom, confidence and musicality.   I enjoy every moment I sit at my keyboard.   Thank you for your help!  It’s been a life changing experience.
Darren
Piano Hacker
This BootCamp was perfect for those that want to learn the ‘why’ behind their favorite pop songs! As a classically trained pianist, the focus was on the ‘how’ instead of the ‘why’. Now I have a much better understanding of chords and how they move the song where you want it to go. Thanks so much Coen!
Ken
Piano Hacker
I can't say enough about how easy to understand, and well put together this program is. I started letting my kids, ages 9& 11, work on this program and ended up having to buy two more keyboards because they were always playing and learning lol
Kevin

..a breath of fresh air. Coen offers thorough piano theory along with chord knowledge backed up with superb videos providing visual demonstrations of the subject of the lesson. He also provides wonderful tips for effective practice. This is not work, this is fun.
Harsant
Piano Hacker
This is a fantastic way to learn how to play the piano. In the past I have always been frustrated in learning to play the piano until I found Coen and the Hack the Piano Bootcamp.It is an easy to follow method and it is fun at the same time. The lessons are in bite sizes and are easy to understand. It does need commitment and after a short while, you get to play your favourite songs on the piano. Highly recommended.
Dee
Piano Hacker
The Chord Piano bootcamp make piano accompaniment accessible without any deep theoretical musical background. It’s accessible but not “simplistic”.
Delphine
Piano Hacker
If you're looking to learn music in a more dynamic and less traditional way, then this piano bootcamp is definitely for you. It's very rare to come across this type of approach in traditional music classes, and I found it to be incredibly refreshing and inspiring. If you're feeling tired of reading music and like you're in a musical rut (like I was), then this course could be exactly what you need to reignite your passion for the piano. The instructor at the bootcamp is knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and he really emphasizes the importance of understanding the foundations and nature of music rather than just learning specific songs. This approach helped me to gain a deeper appreciation for the art of music and feel more confident in my own musical abilities. Overall, I highly recommend this piano bootcamp to anyone looking to break out of the traditional mold and approach music in a more creative and dynamic way. It was an incredibly enjoyable experience for me, and I think it could be for you too.
Reem
Piano Hacker
Following this bootcamp has allowed me to progress my playing at my own pace. Although i do not nearly spend enough time practicing, whatever practice i do happen to have is usually on the back of an amazing classic song. This makes practicing chords and chord progressions so much more fun!
Koen
Piano Hacker
Start Hacking
The advantage the BootCamp afforded me was a crash course on the concepts, tools, rules of thumb, and "tricks of the trade" of pop piano that I can begin to apply on my path forward. A "normal" process would not have allowed me to see that path forward as Coen laid out in a comprehensive manner and yet a very short period of time.
Dave
Piano Hacker
I took years of piano lessons but still was unable to play anything without sheet music in front of me. I also could not break down a song and understand how it worked. I have made some excellent strides in this by taking BootCamp.
Willow
Piano Hacker
I have tried other courses and I have always ended up giving up, because what I wanted was to play piano accompaniment while I sing. This is the only course that allows you to learn that in a clear and structured way. I recommend it 100%.
Juan Carlos
Piano Hacker
…if you want to sit at any piano and play popular music for your family and friends-, if you want a basis to create music towards becoming a professional musician-, no matter the reason you are coming to the piano this is the program you want to take.
Victoriana
Piano Hacker
This is most likely to be the best that you'll find when it comes to learning how to play the piano. I've been taught classically for over 10 yrs now but was jealous in seeing a guitarist being able to pick up songs very easily, this program will enable you to that. Its top notch.
Jonathan
Piano Hacker
You're doing a FANTASTIC thing here and I truly admire your altruistic approach
Joshua
Piano Hacker
You took the mystery out of what I hear when I listen to contemporary piano and that’s not to say that your approach is good just for pop piano. I think it’s THE best way to learn piano!
Giovanni
Piano Hacker
It's such a great program, because it is very organized and explains the information in a logical way. It is great because you can repeat the lessons until you get it down completely.
Winston
