Your videos are so good. I'm a guitarist of 20+ years and have been picking up the piano recently. I feel like your videos by far do the best at helping me think more like a pianist (and less like a guitarist playing piano). Thank you so much. Your vids are a crucial part of my learning.
This is exactly what I have been looking for and you explain it so well. I have just started your Rhythm4U course and it is opening up a whole new world of piano playing for me.
Great lesson. I often. Do this technique for Stevie Wonder, Elton John, and Alicia Keys songs. I would perform the bossa nova bounce movement, but all on feeling the tempo. Now giving me this formula of adding the left hand hit between the right hand split chord gives me a more consistent approach. Thanks for the lesson.
This is really great stuff. I love your sessions, the theory and the practice sessions work perfectly together. Thanks A lot for sharing your widsom. Thank you very much from Norway.
Merci beaucoup for this. I subbed, and I will practice this diligently. BTW I will have a video about exercises for the pianist. That is to say, what the pianist should be doing for his instrument, especially the low back, shoulders and hands. Exercises and self-treatments to take care of those aches and pains, and especially for getting strength in that pesky 5 finger. Stay tuned.
i've been trying to understand this for so long really a lot of videos have unnecessary chatter and pomp really enjoy the format and the visuals easy to concentrate
Man this is such a cool Lesson. I’m just starting to learn piano after 30 years of playing guitar and I thought the piano fingerings would be easy but it’s really tiring to get my hands in these positions. The rhythm I get, I just can’t get my fingers to follow :). But I know just like guitar, after enough practice at all just click on become second nature
Also just the five minute break in which I wrote the last comment and sat back down and it all just came together the second time I tried. It’s funny how our brains and muscles work that way…
Love the set up! What do you use to record/edit? I am a piano teacher in the UK and feel that this view would be really beneficial to my students along with the Clef on the left and the Chord name on the right 😊
Hi!! I have been learning piano for a while now and i just wanted to ask for some tips about whats the next step after learning how to read chords?? thanks!😊
Please what is the name of the software you use that creates an artificial piano on top of what you're playing. I am a piano teacher as well. I really need it for my students. Tnx a lot for all you do
Congratulations. Surely not a video for grass root beginners. I read some the comments...Yes that's so.One should not be easily discouraged. The ride is rough but all is pleasant ounce you start to figure out what is going on. Good d a r n good.
Very difficult for me to understand your timing explanation. To me it is either 16ths or triplets. You say it is triplets but write it as 16ths. I think it would be very helpful if you had had the complete phrase written out on the music lines. You make it very confusing.
You keep calling those triplets, but although there are three of them, they're not triplets. A triplet is when you play three notes where you would normally play 2. Eighth note triplets are 3 notes where you would normally have two eighth notes, and sixteenth note triplets are where you would normally have 2 sixteenth notes. You're just playing sixteenth notes there. I mean, I appreciate the lesson (I'm a guitar player learning piano) but that detail could really end up confusing people long-term.
Is that a triplet? If your playing 16th notes and hitting on the beat, then nothing is in thirds. A triplet is playing off beat by turning an 8th, quarter, half, whole, etc. into three notes right? 1 2 3 4 You're doing ----- one two ah three ee four A triplet would be ---- one two trip a let four In the last one, the 'trip a let' gives three notes to the single third beat quarter note. So why are you calling this a triplet? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In 4/4 playing a triplet on each quarter note would be::: 1 trip let 2 trip let 3 trip let 4 trip let 1 ee ah 2 ee ah 3 ee ah 4 ee ah is different.
Sorry, but you have too much going on in your video. You said that you'd teach "how to" etc. but you didn't actually... I'm about to close the page confused about the syncopated moves.
You are make things more complicated....simple please !!!! unless you are refer to professionals , otherwise professionals do not need your tutorials !!!
