I know that You put those chords in that order to demo the song. I would have shown that finger pattern in alphabetical order; C-F-G-a. Then rearrange them. It's a confidence builder to see all those chords(key of C)that can be made w/the same finger shape(7?). Wonderful vid. TYSM!

I am a 61 year old male. Several years ago, I decided to purchase items that I was interested in that I might not be able to afford in my retirement years, so I would not be sitting around and just growing old. One of the items that I purchased was a yamaha DGX-660. I purchased it in 2017, put it on a stand with the bench, I covered it, and it sat there until about a week ago. I have no experience with playing any instrument, but I have always wanted to play the piano. I recently had a major back surgery that has prevented me from working, so I have lots of time on my hands. I have watched many utube videos in the last few days, and yours are among the ones that I like. Your channel is the one that I think will help me to learn to play. I have downloaded and printed several things that you have provided in your video descriptions. I appreciate the way that you teach. Thank you so much. I am from East Texas, and like you, my wife is a Georgia peach. Thank you again, and I'm looking forward to learning from you.

This is exactly how I felt! I had been doing all the things she says not to. No wonder after 30 years, I never stuck with it. I first loved a keyboard my grandparents had in the fun and games closet. One of those mid 80s one that has that feature you can turn burps into a song hahaha I am waiting for my keyboard in the mail (hopefully it’s not damaged) and this will be the 4th keyboard I’ve had in my life and I got the weighted keys! Anyway, I am so happy I found this gal! Cant wait to start!

I am also sorry you’re dealing with the back surgery and such. I hope this helps for you so you have a lifetime of fun. You still got plenty of miles on that ole body! I wish you luck, bud! You got this!

I started a week ago using your videos. I want to download your planner in hopes that will be a better guide than my random efforts with your youtube videos. I subscribed to your channel Day One in hopes that would provide a rational structure. I’m retired so my schedule is flexible. I enjoy your lessons.

Welcome welcome! I would watch the free training too to get even more of an idea of good structure -shorturl.at/hIKS0. Good luck on your journey! 🎹

I am 75 years old, and still have most of my marbles so I am capable of learning, but it’s much harder than it was. You go very fast and too fast for me so I have to take good notes. I just started watching you and I have attempted to learn the piano several times in the past, but never stayed with it, but I think that you may be the one who can help me. I am determined to learn, and I have been working on it by myself with those books, you talked about until now. Thank you and I do like the color!

Thanks for the tips and motivational advice. Before even starting to practice I think I've read too much and watched too many videos. I was overwhelmed after realising just how much there is to learn, but I've now told myself to take it one step at a time and have fun!

@pianoly 7 ай бұрын

Yes, just 1 step at a time is all you need to do. Enjoy the journey!

Lavender lighting is very soothing. As an intermediate player, I enjoy watching your videos which are informative as well as entertaining. I've picked up tips that I missed as a beginner which I've applied to my practice routines. As a result I'm wondering if I can still benefit from your accelerated course.

@pianoly 7 ай бұрын

Glad you like it! I do have intermediate players come into my course! This is why we do a zoom call to understand where you're at. If you want to find out if you're a good fit, you can schedule a zoom here: calendly.com/pianoly/45min?month=2024-01

Loving the lighting in here! I kicked off my keyboard journey last September with a simple 61-key, unweighted keyboard. Fast forward to now, and I’ve upgraded to a Roland FP-30X, complete with a stand and pedal board - it’s like my new sidekick! 😄 I’ve set some goals for myself and have been hitting the keys for at least an hour daily, working on scales, chords, and those Hanon exercises. Along the way, I’ve learned a few songs, one of which is the Passacaglia. I’ve enjoyed adding my own creative changes to it over time. While I’m a big fan of classical music, I find beauty in any piece that I hear on the piano. I’ve been pretty consistent, playing every morning and night. Often, I find myself practicing even more. This whole experience has been like a rewarding cycle that just keeps getting better and better. 🎹🎶

THIS WAS SO HELPFUL! I just started learning piano a few months ago. I use the Simply Piano app and honestly this is the farthest I've gone learning any instrument 😂 I need to get better with sheet music and matching up the key placement and reading but I am impressed with myself 😅 thank you for the help and I'm excited to learn some chords!!

Also, you want fully weighted, not semi weighted keys. I started December 10th (after about a 5 year break from playing off and on for the last 20 years). I'm sticking to it this time and have logged 100+ hours since December 10th. I would say I'm pretty close to Breaking into the intermediate skill level. It does help that I have musical training from elementary school through college, but I learned on a trombone and started learning piano on my own when I was a teenager (very casually). I love it and am so excited to have music in my life again!!

Hello beautiful Teacher! Always follow yours recommendations (trying at least) . 10 month from my beginning to learning piano playing. 1,5 to 2,5 hours Everyday. Biggest mistake in my life not starting learning 10, ....., better 30 years ago... Love yours videos. Thank you.

I’ve tried taking private lessons for more than a year and finding out that I’ve learned very few things as my teacher was basically just watching me practicing a song from the Alfred’s basic piano library or the royal conservatory celebration series 6th edition Yaaawwwwn!Finally pulled the plug last Fall.I do know the music scale but do not feel confident to sit down and play on my own

I teach piano, and this method is perfect for students who want to learn pop music. The interesting thing is that most of my students want to learn classical, so I teach the traditional way using mainly method books.

@khinekhine613 7 ай бұрын

I am an absolute beginner who wants to learn classical. I prefer the traditional way with children songs. It is not too bad. Still very enjoyable.

I purchased a Roland keyboard and stand/seat. I’ve been playing for a month but until now after watching many different teaching channels. I’m glad I came across you due to your great topics and excellent teaching techniques. Im excited to continue learning. If I can suggest something that would help me if it’s possible, to put the key that you’re playing at the top of the key when pressing. Thank you Kaitlyn!

@triforcegamerz7150 7 ай бұрын

I think the lighting is great, same goes for your piano space. A next step, not so important, but a camera upgrade to something that records in 4k could be a next step. I started learning the piano this January. And I’m so excited. I do my very best to show up every day to practice at least an hour. Reading and practicing notes and sheet music. I am aware you are learning your students chords first and I get that, but my mindset is more towards the classical kind of piano playing as my favorite songs are more classical oriented. What do you think? Thanks for the video. All the best 😉 Mark

Hi, I’m curious are the chords for piano reliable from ultimate guitar .. as the the song ….if you go away… by new kids on the block.. doesn’t seem right? Can you check and see what you think please ? I’m a beginner of 3 months and don’t want to pick up any bad resources for learning …

Good morning Kathy, Love the lighting. Remind me of Halloween lights. Marry doesn’t have her little lamb anymore. I had it for dinner once I started watching your channel. At first the little lamb was a little hard to swallow, but having it with a couple beers 🍺🍺 and practicing your lesson it when down just fine. 😢😩 So now it’s: “Mary “had” a little lamb and the meat was tasty and good. And wherever Mary went, the memories of her little lamb will follow her wherever she may go.” 😢😩😭 Take Care and have a blessed week. 🙏🙏🙏 (Mmm Mmm good!)😂

I like the new setup and the levender color. And did you change the "height" of the camera as well? Amazing fine-tuning! I have started by the end of February 2023 learning and practicing the piano. And I agree with you: Having set up the instrument in an environment that suits my "feel-good" helps a lot; the place is kind of more inviting, more confortable and feels kind of "at home" at home, if you get what I mean. As for the schedule. As much as I try practicing on a daily basis, I also have accepted that sometimes even a week to two may be in order; it is very important, though, to consider this a break, and not a quitting! Having kid of an idea what you can do within 20-60 minutes helps a lot, too - especially if you have so many different "modules" that you can vary your practicing on a regular basis!

@pianoly 7 ай бұрын

Thank you! Yes, I changed the height, but it was actually because I left my other tripod at my music school and had to make due with this one... it turned out good and I liked the angle too! As long as you keep going and don't stop - you will succeed!

Am I missing something or did Kaitlyn make an error when identifying the three white keys under every pair of two black keys as always being "CED" when in fact they are "CDE?"
