First, learn how to play the chords. You could download the keyboard chord chart from this post and start practice playing them. I would suggest you start out with learning these chords first – Dm F Gm Am C Bb – When you learn these five chords you could play just about all Lao country songs out there because with the keyboard you could use the transpose button for scaling the notes.

Second, learn the melody. For me I used a program call Vanbaso. I just load in the midi file of a song that I want to learn. Mute all the channels except for the melody and a play along with it. And if I want to get the chords for the song I would mute all the channels except for the guitar chord. You could also lower the tempo if it is too fast for you. Pretty cool program to get the chord and the melody part.

If you are not a visual person then I would suggest this program Midi2Notation. Just get the player version it is free! With this program you could print out the melody part of a song or just the guitar chord. Check it out!

The key here is to learn the chord of a song, the melody and then bringing them together. Have fun!

Download these programs, a free midi and test them out. This is how I learn! If you like to share with us how you learn your keyboard lessons please post it here.

When I got started with music my first instrument was a Yahama PSR 620 keyboard. I remember I was so happy when I picked it up at the post office. I was kinda disappointed because I thought that it would come with a built-in Lao style.

At the time, I didn’t know anybody in the Lao music community.So, like everybody else I went online and start searching for Yamaha Lao Keyboard Styles..couldn’t find anything! After many hours of frustration I was able to locate a website in Los Angeles that offers to sell Lao music styles. So, I went ahead and bought one music style..Lamvong just to test it out and it works perfectly. Thanks for the people in Los Angeles! The only thing that I don’t like is the price..$25 for one style and $100 for ten!

Now, that I am more active in the Lao music community, finding what I need is much easier and cheaper too. Hopefully, new Lao musicians will find this website useful.

I am going to share one of my favorite Lao Keyboard Styles with you guys. If you would like to share yours with the community please shoot me an email and I will post it. Thanks
