Oliver Prehn gives hope. I sometimes listen to these lessons even without intending to learn...but just listening to him. I've learnt to be patient with myself and that nothing is impossible . Life is about breaking goals into small achievable steps one at a time.!!

Hello, Mr. Oliver, you have changed my life! I have been studying your lessons for over a year, and during this time, you changed my philosophy of music, I learned to enjoy it. Your talent for presenting such complex things is so simply - briliant. I'm afraid to imagine how many years I would spend to come to such things myself, if of course I could. After some time, I return to the old lessons and every time I understand something new, how deep they are! Hats off, greetings from Russia! Thank you!!

Hello, Oliver. I am Spanish and I do not understand English (a bit of the writing but nothing of the spoken) but still I see your videos that I find excellent. I understand them because they are subtitled in Spanish. Thanks for that detail. I am not very advanced in the piano although I have been practicing for some years. I know, rather something of guitar although autodidact and by ear. Now I'm studying some harmony. I'm stuck in the modes and I'm dedicated to watching tutorial videos of which yours are "Number One" in my personal ranking. Thanks for your lessons and your dedication. Greetings from Gerardo. Oh, and thanks to the Google translator that without your help I could not send you the message in English, so I avoid you having to do it yourself. Thanks again and goodbye. I donated you some turkeys ...

Absolutely LOVE this tutorial! Nobody that I have seen on KZbin teaches this topic the way that you do, Oliver. This lesson gives me a clear idea how to construct a Jazz solo, which is exactly what I was looking for. It's so frustrating to watch some videos that try to teach this subject but leave me none the wiser, except for knowing which scales to use. The fact that you do all of this for voluntary donations only is so generous. Small donation on the way. Thanks so much Oliver. Hope you and your loved ones stay safe and well in this crazy time!
