Thought it meant the guns and roses guy

Well now I'm confused because someone else with a KZbin channel explained the definition of slash chords differently. He said the note to the right is what u play with ur left hand as a bass note. Somebody is right and somebody is left. . . I mean wrong 🤔

Why are you using your left hand?

Typically these type of chords are used in a lot of contemporary styles...in that case youre playing the chord in right hand (choose any inversion youd like)..but put the note to right of slash line in your left hand bass...its a bit more confusing when video presents chord in left hand ..which isnt how contemporary styles are played

I always thought the slash chord was just to be played in the bass . Interesting .

Thanks

Excellent explanation. I like how you go through the different kinds of slash cords. I'm saving this for future reference. Thank-you.

Keep continuing post new videos you r great teacher. ❤❤❤❤❤ respect

I have a performance day color is tomorrow

Priceless information! I thought I understood about slash chords but it turns out, I didn't! Thank you so much.

Very informative. I've seen a lot of this type of "slash chord" notation in fake books and always wondered about the theory behind it. Thx 🙏🏽

Thank you very much for playing and video recording this. It's one of my favorite songs of all time.

Thanks so much 🙏 an awesome 🎉 lesson worth years of lectures. Can't wait for more. 😊

Thank You xx

I think it's confusing for beginners. Better stick to the quint circle and harmony nomenclature...

Will you be discussing voicings?

Very instructive and helpful. Thank you! You explained slash chords clearly & thoroughly for a relatively new(but old) piano self-learner.

So beautiful

This is transposed right?

Great lesson. Perhaps you can create a class explaining 7ths vs 9ths

I thought that slash chords had a different meaning. The letter to the left signifies the chord regardless of the inversion and the right letter signifies the bass note.

Thank you. I never knew that some kind of music use more or less slash chords. Thanks

I did know about slash chords...but the second part of your video is making voicing more clear ...

Great ! Thnxxx👍👍👍

Naming each keynote or chords by LETTERS 🔤🔠🔤🔠 is very helpful in every lesson,!! Counting is important too!!

Thank you! This is a good lesson. I am wondering if you might be adding a fifth book to your Upper Hands series. It would be an added incentive to continue learning new information from you. I've found your instruction most helpful.

Hi I Saw your video On slash Chords the second. I Saw the first. But it’s a bit much at the moment so I am going to practice more and try to understand. I am still trying with Book 1 chords. Come to Think of it chords are hard to play and I have encountered the slash chords in my fake book. Now I understand what thye are and Will try to work on Them slowly. Thanks so much. Love Playing the piano especially wren I am Down or udset or stressed. Shar

This piece is nice but I think gets shadowed by Traumerei

Your videos are too short

Does this mean that "slash chord" means to use a particular inversion of the chord?

Thank you. Demo clarifies it more

Figured out the C/E chord. While a bit daunting, Slow practice Will help. I am still practicing the regular chord anyway. Thanks for explaining.

Figurer out the c/E chord and leasing it at that for now. A bit daunting but practice and slog tales it. Interessant Way though. Thanks.

Thank You. I have been playing slash chords for a few years, however sometimes I see a more complex chord and go into panic mode , it is then that I take it very slow

yes I'm continuing with lessons, yes I would like to see more demonstrations in BOOK 2

This is definitely a much-needed approach among the swarm of online and other methods -- I would definitely encourage you to provide ongoing demos and guidance for those who wish to continue to develop from the excellent foundation you have provided.

👍🙏

Lovely. I definitely want you to keep doing the video demonstrations . I use them to learn the way to try and play the tunes you are teaching. I even try and follow along but this is harder. Are you leaving permanently or just talking about the end of book 1? I couldn’t quite tell. Can I connect without 60 and me? Thanks again. Love learning with you

luckily stumbled on the blog (subscribed) and loving the jazz arrangements. Do you have a book of your cocktail jazz arrangements i can purchase?

The link in the description doesn't work 😢 what is the chord progression?

You spoke about fake chords, reminding me that 7, or maybe 8 years ago, you asked did I know what a fake chord was. I had no clue. Since then I have bought, or borrowed from a library. sheet music books with fake chords. Thanks for your help. Len (from Ontario Canada)

So helpful thank you !

Hi Gaili, I am really enjoying and learning From UHP Book 1. I recently saw a video where you talked about Fake Books. I am using the one you talked about . First Fake Book is lovely and while I have been playing quite a few of the pieces, since doing UHPbook 1, I am trying to incorporate the chords but of course, I don’t know all the chords. You mentioned that you try to keep 3 note chords. How would I choose which 3 to use. Pg 26, Bye Bye Love has a 4 chord G7 so which letter in that chord could I leave out. ?? I have to constantly be counting as if not, I go too fast. I find this challenging.On page 5, Ain’t misbehaving, there is a C# dim. Which I looked up but not sure which are the correct notes. ?? I seem to have 2 versions. The other one I love is pg 10- Alley cat song.Timing is difficult for me and so I am still plugging my way though Book 1. I don’t not to rush to Book 2 yet. I am really enjoying playing the pieces in Your Book 1 but have trouble sometimes. Practice is essential. I am thinking of going to some lessons here because I find it hard to follow with you as I don’t know how to put my iPad so that I can play and listen to you. There is no space near the piano.. I have a detachable keyboard so maybe I can remove it nd put the monitor on the piano where the book goes but not sure how this ill work either. Sound confused don’t I?? Anyway a work in progress.

Thank You

What a jolly lovely melody👏☺

Very interesting and useful. Thank you for kindly shearing this.

This Chopin piece is eternal, bravo!!!

In any Debussy piece it seems they are ten compositions talking between them!!! 👏👏

Bravo, it sounds wonderfully!!!! 👏👏👏👏

Thank very much for this second part of Moonlight Sonata in E minor, very useful!!!
