Thanks Jazer not only in this video but your all other videos help me a lot 👍 good for other beginners like me ☺️

[@leexthsticboiz]

All

[@lambertch]

All of it! So beautiful and with limitless variations.

[@StartEnjoyingPianoPractice]

This is the best kind of video that a beginner can find. Not overwhelming, with slow tempo, left hand pattern with not so many notes and endless possibilities for right hand improvisation to make beautiful melodies (even by accident :D ).I wish I came across such videos many years ago when I started playing… :) I really like the quality of your content and it helps me a lot in creating my own youtube piano lessons. I hope one day to grow my channel to your level :)

[@jazerleepiano]

All the best with practicing :) :)

As a beginner, this is what keeps me enthusiastic about playing. I can change the melody to fit the mood and sound epic every time.

[@tabomwangelwa4150]

Thanks much. This is someting I've been wanting to learn...not note for note... The sound of your piano is beautiful!

he has a Yamaha Grand Piano in case you wanna know. But im not sure about the model :)

It's like instant composition, once you mastered it the combination is endless, and sound great too! Thanks Jazer.

Will have to practice thank you

[@supernothing77]

Most professionals never progress much pass this point and write beautiful music

[@jonathanbenton2002]

I've always felt that Mozart was the master of simplicity and could make a single note hang in the air, leaving you breathless. Your "Single long Note" technique reminded me of that. Thank you for sharing.

[@MEKA2777]

There is an artist named ibi, he does that too with minimal notes

[@iamdeplorable7555]

Another great lesson from you. It gives us newbies a shot of enthusiasm to practice everyday and sound a lot more advanced then we are. The non players have no idea how relatively simple this is.

[@SmileyBlue69]

Agree .... and also the non players haave no clue how much practice is involved .........................

[@judybrown2764]

I discovered your site this morning when I needed help playing piano using chords. Your teaching method fits my learning style so perfectly! I've spent most of the day watching your various videos and bouncing back and forth from my computer to my piano to practice what you were showing your viewers. It has been one of my happiest days ever at piano! (I'm the 70-year-old that has no gift.) This video is the last I watched today. It may be the only way I play again! (Well, that's an exaggeration, but you get the idea!) LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this lesson! THANK YOU!!!

[@DonnaLori-df3sl]

I'm a beginner as well and I am 77. My significant other can also play. We like your channel the best of anyone. You take your time to explain and make it easy to follow. I like the single long notes and the sixths. Can't wait to try it! Thank you.

[@PianoSongDownload]

Nice! I love that left hand pattern.

[@sweetciinamon]

Thanks for your birthday song tutorial a years ago i played it at my friends party

Love the quick recap at the end with the short demos and text on the screen. Very helpful.

Just. Wow. I just can't believe that after only one week I'm able to follow along and do this (very tentatively for now, but still). Wow. Thank you Jaser for enabling newbies and giving us a taste of musical magic :)

[@thepianoplayer416]

The last time I was at a piano store, the salesman thought I was playing a piece by Scarlatti. Have done some music arrangement reworking pieces for other instruments. Improv is something a lot of students wouldn't normally do because we have a teacher and learn to read other's music note for note. Not many people are comfortable playing in front of others. Being able to improv allows people to do just that.

[@nancypeacher3661]

You gave me inspiration to start playing piano again. I am 79 years old. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you.

[@sr.annehon8277]

Thank you very much, Jazer. You are a very talented pianist. May God bless you and keep you in His merciful love.

[@crazedking]

I've been playing for 10 years, and recently got burnt out after moving to uni, your videos are giving me the motivation to pick it up again! Thank you for your content!!

[@augustiliagomespinto7096]

You are a super talented professional who inspires beginners not to give up! Love that you show hand placement for the notes! Thank you!

[@namphuongnguyen7506]

i do not like typing cause it takes for...e...ver for me, but i gotta say something especially to the people who put the time helping others. i listened to your song with a smile on my face a whole time. i was so happy, loved all the technique and after all i think that i have found a piece easy enough for beginner and sound wonderful as well. Thanks Jazer

[@fabiancosster2992]

God bless you and your family you are changing my life with this technique i was listening this kind of technique for years i didnt know what is going on i was asking my self if i could play in the future now that i know what is going on i felt that the doors begins to open for me thank you once more i keep posting more videos like these

[@fabiancosster2992]

This technique make me sound musical this is what i was looking for many many years before thank you very much and keep posting more videos like this god bless you and your family

[@southpark5555]

Very nice video indeed! It sounds great! The next step after that for students will be to understand exactly why it works --- in the theory part. That is - for the selected pattern of the left hand notes ---- the understanding behind why the right-hand notes sound good with those left-hand note patterns. Thanks Jazer!

[@xinyuewang2]

yes please do make those!

[@peteskyrunner4845]

The reason it works is because the left hand is playing chords in the key of C and the right hand is playing notes in the key of C (basically any white note) so any note you play will sound good with any of the chords.

[@dmills7375]

So theoretically, you should be able to do this in any key if you use the IV-V-vi progression in the left hand and the notes of the scale in the right hand. Try it in the key of G using C-D-E in the left hand and all white keys except for the F (play F#) in the right.

[@Ionic457]

[@SSpitz9907]

Hi! Would love to hear you actually play something one day, a full piece. Do I sense a holiday performance in our near future?...and the crowd goes wilddd. Wouldn't ask for or expect anything crazy. You just play so beautifully.

[@LusajoMwaitete]

This was so good thank you so much for this video, I played it at church and it was the best for everyone to pray, thanks aloat

[@car1995ish]

Thanks a million for this! I like technique 5 with the sixths. The sound is beautiful. Your Caption is so true. Everyone was Impressed with my playing. My sister who knows that I only took piano lessons for a few years before I was a teenager, commented “how could an amateur like you sound so professional?”I am now in my 70s and got my keyboard last Christmas. Thanks again. You are blessed!!!

[@davidreay5911]

Well I must say. How come I've missed this channel! You are a brilliant teacher. In these harsh turbulent times instead of sitting in a lonely place, get together and learn this creative art form. It certainly warms 'the cockles of the heart'.

This melody is simply divine! I started thinking of words to go with it, so it can be the next 'big hit' on the charts.

[@johnpawlicki1184]

Thanks, Jazer This is great for someone who wants to practice listening. Just hitting the right keys does not necessarily make music. To improvise, even this simply, one needs to listen to make it music. Excellent.

[@Lewisjohnrandall-xl1pe]

all of your videos everything I have ever needed to open all the doors with out all the strenuous music theory and sheet music. You make it so everyone can just enjoy exploring music. Thanks jazer Lee

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Second time watching, and with a little more music theory. Starting scales adds a new mode, or colour. They are also called Church Tones. C - Ionian D - Dorian E - Phrygian F - Lydian G - Myxolydian A - Aeolian or Natural Minor B - Lochrian which is the darkest scale

[@patriciaguillaume7353]

Very beautiful improvisation. I my self play alot using just the white keys. C major is an easy key which i use alot when playing popular music. I will try this tuneful method to warm up my fingers.

[@danbryant7322]

This is a great lesson for practicing hand independence as well. You make it look easy, but it actually isn't until one masters that skill.

[@hyvybproductions1800]

This is simply amazing. I am currently studying with Simply Piano, but was not using the left hand this way except to start the main key of the chord that I am playing with the right hand. The challenge here is to keep the left hand going, but with practice, it will become smoother. I also apply the same left hand technique to work on other chords (C-D, etc) and it sounds amazing. Thank you so much Jazer for making this available to us.

[@Tunlence]

That's true. I wonder also how to keep the left hand going at a medium speed to accompany the right.
