I am 60 years old I have been taking piano lessons from an accomplished musician for the pass 3 years. Have not made much progress but watching a couple of your videos got me excited. Now I will stick with you and learn. God bless you richly

I'm a guitar player. I recently bought a DAW. Can't have a DAW without a keyboard so I bought a keyboard. Can't strum a keyboard so I tinkered around a bit. Sort of doing okay. Then I saw this video. Pretty cool. Played the 1st four patterns instantly. The 5th took a little to get the muscle memory happening. Lol....I subscribed.

The fact you told people to practice a 4 note section to get comfortable tells me you’re a fantastic teacher. These “piano apps” had my daughter doing triad scales in the beginning. I’m like can we focus on like a c major scale first and get her comfortable with that. So bravo sir, I will definitely subscribe and have her watch your videos.

My piano skills have progressed tremendously since I found Creative Piano Academy. Thank you so much for providing such great content and free accompanying sheet music etc. I appreciate you.

[@simonhampson5082]

I had piano lessons as a youngster - then my dad taught me some chords on a guitar (his old, old, old one!) then I was given a ukulele for my 9th birthday. Studied music in the library and then started buying penny whistles and harmonicas. Then had home-organ lessons. Started backing artistes at around 18/19 and then got into portable keyboards - played in a few bands, churches and have now risen to buying a Genos 2 - and you know what? I am still learning. Turned 60 this year and now realize that I need way more time than nature has to offer!! Enjoyed "going back to basics" and subscribed. Thank you CPA!

[@ragetobe]

I’ve been trying to learn piano myself for ages, I have some music knowledge but cannot read music. This video just moved my progression by miles and the fun too.

[@dalkeiththomas9352]

you're a great teacher. Even a toddler could understand. Thanks a lot

Yeeeeees! I’m so glad to see a new video from you. Can’t wait to go try these :D

FANTASTIC! Go forth and play!

[@brinta19]

My favorite was #5 as well as The John Lennon one. But I also liked the half and half cause that was the simplest. All good ones. Great video. Thanks.

[@spinnettdesigns]

I absolutely loved this, I love inversions and this is the validation I needed to play them as much as I want to 😅 I’m self taught and not very accomplished but I still love to play. Thank you SO much for your simple and USEFUL video 👏 Your excitement was a wonderful bonus 😊

[@johnhix9678]

It is incorrect for people to say that they are self-taught or that they are teaching themselves. Is more appropriate to say that by experimenting you are finding out certain things about how this music works. Keep investigating and eventually you will learn certain aspects of how music is done. Keep practices and you will get better at those things. But you can only teach yourself if you already know in which case you're not teaching yourself.

[@retha6504]

Same here ☺️

[@LandyA33333]

So simple, thanks very much. This truly can help me as a beginner sound like I know what I'm doing, at least for a brief moment, when I sit down at the piano with my wife in the room! NOTHING IS MORE ELEGANT THAN SIMPLICITY!

[@dpwaldman3145]

This is my first set of exercises with Creative Piano Academy, which I now consider a go-to resource for my keyboard studies and one which I plan on engaging with as a proper customer. Thanks very much for your good work and all that you put into it. Much appreciated!

Crazy how these tiny modulations and differences invoke wildly different emotional responses - even when used with the same notes.

I recently bought a keyboard as a gift for a friend that wanted to learn to play. I wanted to find some easy lessons to get her started and I believe this is the right place. Thank you.

[@homeawayfromhome2516]

Hi Josef, Thank you so much for sharing these amazing, empowering and beautiful patterns. Of all the things I have seen on KZbin piano tutorials, this video is the one that I feel is most useful for a person like me trying to learn how to play the piano. It is so empowering and it made me feel I could actually sound good playing the piano. You are a great teacher and you made beginners feel they can actually advance in their desire to play better. Thank you again. You are truly a blessing.

[@aspinallsandy4810]

Thank you, you are a great teacher, you make it slow and easy to follow, I'm 71 and need to learn, also like note in top corner, Its by far the best tutorial I can find, Have subscribed

[@carlbaumeister3439]

Great vid! I’m self taught, been playing for years, have played professionally, and I guess just intuitively started using these patterns. When I first started playing, I wrote something using Pattern # 1. But what was interesting about your approach on #1 was going to the inversion for the next chord, bc it requires changing the finger separation distance. Pretty cool, and makes it sound less elementary. The pattern on which you keep the bass on the first chord throughout with creates a bit of tension is used quite often by Elton (e.g., the intro to “Your Song”). The genealogy of the “Lohn Jennon” could be go back to the “Maul PcCartney,” since Maul used it on “Golden Slumbers,” and likely taught “Jennon” how to play.

[@scottm4042]

It looks like you used inversions on the names! Was that first, or second inversion?

[@carlbaumeister3439]

@@scottm4042 First. Second would be Lehn Jonnen & Mcul PaCartney. Now don’t even get me started on minors, 7th’s, diminished, augmented, and especially 6 add 9’s! Eventually you run out of letters and have to start borrowing from George & Ringo . . .
