great video as usual

[@nlmusic5470]

Do you usually start learning your tunes with learning the the melody first?

[@denbrick9759]

Damn back after so long

[@thepianoshed]

Haha! You got me -- my job at Berklee was really taking over for a bit there! But I am excited to get back it. Any requests?

[@denbrick9759]

@@thepianoshed 😃 Glad to hear that, Would really love to see you demonstrate more R&B and Gospel chords.

Hey! Can you explain why my chord voicings sound different on my piano? I can't get the same tone right? How do I correct that?

[@thepianoshed]

Hmmm that's a tough one! I'm not really sure. Do you have an acoustic or digital piano? Maybe your acoustic piano needs a tuning? Or perhaps if you are on a digital piano you aren't playing in the right octave? Also, with experience, the voicings will sound clearer -- experienced players can bring out certain notes within a chord (i.e. the top and bottom notes in particular) which helps the overall tone.
