Cry Pretty — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial
Watch "Cry Pretty" by Carrie Underwood in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of G, 72 BPM.
Tip: Use the speed control to practice at 70% tempo first. Focus on tricky chord transitions before attempting the full arrangement.
