May i be your student

[@Nik-by5mi]

I love how excited he gets about chords! ooohh ... yeah.

[@davidgerber9317]

Any time I watch a Jonny May video, I know that I'm going to get the REAL S&%T! This guy delivers on EVERY VIDEO! Of course I watch other KZbin tutors, but Jonny delivers so reliably that from my perspective, he's the best of the bunch. In addition to his arrangements and explanations, he demonstrates with ROCK-SOLID TECHNIQUE. A wealth of musical inspiration to digest in every video. Did I mention I like this guy? Thanks, Jonny!

[@PianoWithJonny]

David Gerber #topfan... Thanks David! 💪

[@signetulupan]

By far the best piano instruction! As a student of yours, I appreciate all of the amazing material you’ve created. For anyone who has not purchased his piano courses, you’re missing out

[@WorstSanta]

I would say, the value of the content is like 10 times higher, than its price. No brainier for sure.

[@GeorgeAlexa]

Yes, since 2019 I've been his student. he has done a thousand times more than this KZbin. You owe it to yourselves to sign up.

Fantastic thank you, really enjoyed it and can almost play it already even though I only know basic piano.

[@davidfriedman7823]

The 1-6-2-5. Turnaround when I learned it years ago they called it ice cream Thats what many of the older r and b and jazz players call it the ice cream turnaround

[@christopherjohnv.carino6052]

Hi Jonny please provide a full music score to this, so I can avail the membership. Thanks.

[@geraldadams9528]

Very nice.

[@danielsonderhoff5882]

Hi Jonny, can I buy your sheets without the video clips? I‘m very interested in your jazzy Christmas style.

[@PianoWithJonny]

You can purchase on Musicnotes.com: www.musicnotes.com/sheet-music/artist/jonny-may

[@leomarcordero09]

balvarooo!!!!!

[@pianistluckyson1324]

How do you make any song sound bluesy ????. Happy holidays.keep up

[@erikpianist6890]

Any way I can download this sheet music? ☺️

[@fernandoarchila5218]

beautifully done. How do i get this arrangement?

[@insanedrummer89]

damn this was legit

[@Danny-ko4zl]

Would love to buy this arrangement! Where can I?

[@pnojazz]

It would be nice if you would publish YOUR lead sheet. 😂

[@AnthonyChew]

3:50 Yes, the 11th note is what you can call the 'Oh!' note.

[@lolitaortiz8430]

Jonny please share your lead sheet to us. Thank you.

[@thestig8029]

How to download the backing track?

[@2HellWUtube]

Jonny, why do you sometimes play the piece slightly different in the intro piece of the video than in the part where you explain the song? I’ve seen it in other videos, but this video has a good example. The very first chord (or even bar with the left hand not just playing the simple A-G) you play in the intro song (0:00) is indeed Cmaj7 (which is also written on the lead sheet above the notation), but the actual notes written (which you explain at 3:35) are C-G-C, which is not Cmaj7. I’ve seen it in other lessons if yours, playing a stunningly arranged intro only to explain a simplified version in the lesson part.

[@christopherjohnv.carino6052]

Hi Jonny, is there a music sheet to this. If there is and if membership is needed. Please let me know. This is urgent.

[@alfredovidable139]

Hola te saludo desde argentina agradezco tus tutoriales pero podrías poner subtítulos en español gracias un abrazo

[@gastonblue4659]

Why cut the whole song? i saw the whole video and you are great but where is the whole song?

[@JeremyL1983]

If Nick Vujicic could play the piano...

[@hernandezkev]

Jonny, the link to the backtrack and sheet music doesn't work. Great video! Happy Holidays!

[@PianoWithJonny]

Thanks for letting us know Kevin! We just updated the link so you can access the page.

[@hernandezkev]

@@PianoWithJonny That was quick! I don't see where I can download the lead sheet music or the backtrack. Do I have to be a member in order to access both of these?

[@PianoWithJonny]

Kevin Hernandez Yes, you have to log into the membership to download the backing track on that page. Sorry it’s not more clear - we’ll have a more prominent note on this page in the future to clarify this.

[@hernandezkev]

@@PianoWithJonny No problem. Thanks for clarifying!

[@theriverofcalm-musictosoot7120]

@@PianoWithJonny I don't see it when clicking the download for audio. I do see this message though. Any ideas or help will be great - thank you! Publisher Restrictions Due to publisher restrictions, the downloadable sheet is not available for this course.

[@coach3958]

As a beginner, Im lost. This is harder than Chineese arithmetic to grasp

[@SwingDanceBand]

where is the lead sheet?

[@heartnote]

at 8:56 you don't play an Amin11, you play a Cmaj7...

[@mancavelegostudios9711]

I know this ain't relevant to your video but I make lego stopmotion videos.

[@Defender247]

Way to busy of an explanation
