Perhaps we can only play no more than 1% of Peter's phrase, but seeing him filled with a joyful heart and we are kind of sharing the joy of a virtuoso master who so generously shares his secret to his musical journey.

[@yvanou6866]

Thanks a lot!! In about 70', you answered almost all the questions I'm asking myself about pratising piano Jazz for the last 20 years

[@CWBella]

Thank you, Peter, for the strategies/reminders; pure gold! And thank you for putting this on YT since I was en route to vacay & couldn't attend live. Looking forward to trying these out soon.

You’re a beautiful soul Peter Martin. -🤙🏻Tony down under🇦🇺

[@pianopeter]

thank you 🙏🏼

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

I'm still in the Beginner phase, and have no expectations about playing jazz. But I' getting serious about my practice time, and this was invaluable. I like the fact that Peter sings, since my voice is not that great. But I have to start. Mads might want to watch my video about exercises and treatments for the low back and upper extremity. Oh My Aching Bach

[@crow-dont-know]

This is great! Also, that Ellis shape you run through is exactly how I tend to play the pickup into Misty

[@tomsiegel9759]

This is so helpful for me! I'd love to have a 10-minute workout series with even more ideas. I've got three kids and two businesses. Small bites of practice are all I get a lot of times. If I could pick from a list of 10-minute things to mess with and go, that would feel so much more productive.

[@top3singermorales636]

Great meeting you

[@ricoeurkhino]

Totally agree. Restriction/targeted practice is really key 🔥🔥🔥

Peter & OSJ ... please consider an entire course on shapes !! Phenomenal video of instruction ...thank you !!!

[@chvolow]

It's easy to feel like I ought to practice the basics, but Peter makes me WANT to practice them

[@tomsiegel9759]

Same. He really models how to do this correctly!

[@flpsnk4848]

That first 5 minutes of "having fun", that is my jam so much stuff to learn from just that.

[@pianopeter]

[@digsjazzalot]

Ditto, it helps to see what you’re thinking harmonically Peter.

Hi Peter..love your videos. Thanks from STL

[@rvangaal]

Great tips and inspiration! The one part I was missing is rhythm, but I think that was pointed out by others already.

[@andrewcampbell-bluespianop6741]

Thanks for this, very informative 🙌🏼🎶

[@eck1997rock]

Love the ear training one. If you're into singing as well then it's an awesome exercise if you just do solfege instead

[@The8BitPianist]

Another one to add to my favorites, thank you!

[@rdettwyler]

Nice. For me, I watched you play the second chord, a minor chord that's a tritone above the root and the fifth on the bottom. As I move around between keys, It's easy to see if I'm playing the correct chord. Love it. I think to logically too improvise well, but having perfect pitch and knowing where to go is fun :-) Thanks.

[@trombonemunroe]

56:54 "We were just BS-ing at the beginning because we went live early" Dude, this beginning stuff was terrific for me! I was lifting that stuff and getting all kinds of ideas from it!

[@TommyCosterMusic]

So good Peter, ty…

[@Ambidextroid]

Excellent ideas well presented and great playing, I will integrate this into my playing. By the way peter at 30:30 you mixed up your major and minor thirds you noob. much love from england

[@0zzzzz]

I would like to learn more about improvising, over a simple chord progression as well as part of playing jazz standards

[@manuelpariente2288]

Great content, thanks! Do you have recommendations for recordings of the simple blues you made? I'd love to pick up some lines from the greats!

There's a mistake in the intervals at 30:42: major 3rd of G# is B# not B natural, B natural is the minor 3rd of G#.

Where can I learn to physically play the piano better? I get the theory from playing guitar. But I've never actually played piano and via KZbin I'll get the lessons but no one is there to critique my technique and actually make it better

[@BobMazzo]

What does the broken 3rds exercise look like written out ?

[@brucejeric6701]

@@BobMazzo if love to see that. He played it to fast for me to follow and I don’t know how to slow video down. Don’t try to explain. I’m not that bright

[@BobMazzo]

@decouvrir-la-musique well yes that's easy, but thanks.

[@BobMazzo]

​@brucejeric6701 LOL You have a good sense of humor. But I do see it now. Play the Cdim half-whole scale first (C Db Eb E Gb G A Bb C) just to understand it. Then play it again , adding a minor 3rd (I believe). So C-Eb, Db-E, Eb-Gb, E-G, etc.). Gosh I hope I'm right. 😅

So I like to play music on piano and I'm pretty fluent in a few keys and also like playing bass, am I the only one that finds practice on the keys brutal?

[@brucejeric6701]

Very hard to understand what you are saying with you playing at same time. I guess I have hearing problems. I’m very old and it’s frustrating. Pain in the ass!!! I’ve never heard a response from you or your team on any questions or comment, so this probably isn’t worth writing? But I am anyway. I will try to figure out your 10 minute practice routine best I can. Be interesting to hear what all scale ideas yoh use over your blues time? I can see and hear it’s not all straight minor blues scales. So you mix things up nicely. I like it!! And your lines are nice but to fast to copy. You might take us through just one line slowly sometime and explain the theory and execution

[@Ambidextroid]

you can try the automatic subtitles on youtube with the CC button. sometimes they can be a little dodgy but they seem fine on this video

[@brucejeric6701]

@@Ambidextroid have no idea what you are talking about??? I’m old and stupid tech illiterate. Lucky I can even view KZbin on my iPhone. No iPad no Leo top no computer. Love the world before all this.

[@chrismowag6919]

@@brucejeric6701 man, all this tech stuff comes with so many downsides. But the upsides are even more 😉 I‘m half around the world from St. Louis and get lessons by my favorite piano teachers as often as I want not to mention the plethora of knowledge which is on KZbin (often hidden beneath a pile of sh**, I‘ll give you this …) You can also slow KZbin vids down 😊 get one of your grandchildren or one if your neighbors to break it down for you, I promise it’s worth the investment! Cheers!

[@Ambidextroid]

@@brucejeric6701 If you are watching on the computer, then at the bottom right of the video there should be a bunch of icons, one of them is a white rectangle with the letters "CC" in, meaning closed captions. If you click it you should get subtitles for the video. If you are watching on your iPhone you should find the same icon in the top right of the video, next to the gear icon.

Anyone who only has 10 minutes to practice doesn't care about practicing. Straight up, you can find an hour and you know it.
