Cockles Mussels Piano Tutorial

Welcome to Musician's Addition! Join Evan as he takes you through a comprehensive piano tutorial aimed at improving two crucial skills: sight reading and hand independence. In this detailed lesson, we dive into "Cockles and Mussels," a 16-bar piece perfect for practicing these techniques. Evan will guide you through playing the song with left-handed chords and a simple melody on the right hand, focusing on sight reading one hand at a time before combining both.
