In this piano tutorial I’ll teach you a super easy piano lick based on a suspended ninth (or suspended second) chord that will get you producing professional-sounding keyboard improvisations really quickly. Even if you’re just starting out learning the piano and your knowledge of chords and music theory is pretty limited, this little lick is an essential one to know: combine it with some simple chord progressions and you’ll be writing and improvising great piano songs before you know it!
