Tom you are not only a wonderful teacher, you have a great sense of humour which keeps us engaged. Every time I watch or re-watch your videos I immediately run over to the piano to try what I’ve learned.

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

Glad to hear it was helpful

[@chrisc7315]

Fantastic mate so inspirational 😊

[@carpegiane1504]

Parabéns

[@mandolin-george-uk]

inspirational - as a person interested in jazz and blues -(but not dyed in the wool in either case) this is a way forward for me - genius. That song and repertoire has long been of great interest. How about Lonestar and turn me on ....???

[@amayers8826]

So divine and so helpful!

[@philldwyer5221]

Wonderful lesson as usual, thank you. That piano has a really nice sound, how old is it? 🎹🎹👍

[@dolinlangnepo9385]

Thank you Tom that's simple I feel, I'm lame to play with left hand, trying alot but not able to combine both hands while playing.

[@xras66]

The best! everything is easy and simple. Just lacks an intro. but there are the same chords.

[@michelmottet6083]

Cela aurait bien de visionner la suite d accords de LA SECTION 2 merci pour votre facon d enseigner c est claire et motivant

[@thomascordery7951]

Don't Know Why, by New York singer songwriter Jesse Harris. Nora Jones' version is iconic, definitive, and no doubt the reason so it's so widely known and loved.

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

Yes. That's very true.

[@stevewexler]

Love this... but it's hard to see what notes are being played in the inverted chords in the middle section... Do you have the sheet music? It would be great if you had some software that showed the keys being played...

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

Yes, a camera zoom-in might have helped there in that middle section, because it moves quicker. But I have noticed a lot of KZbinrs are really reliant on copying the information they get, you need to instead apply the principles, with your own voicings, or you are reverting back to relying entirely on someone else arrangements, and what I am trying to do in this video is put an end to that - with this piece as a good example. There are so many other ways to play this song too! Try and work it out yourself, it will bring you one step closer to musicianship.

[@stevewexler]

@@contemporaryschoolofpiano Thanks! It's a great video, and I did work it out in the end.

[@frgreen4]

‘The Pink Panther’….made me laugh. What a perfect metaphor for excessive ‘slip-notes’.

[@thomascordery7951]

Plas Johnson was a master at bending notes on tenor sax. Couldn't have Pink Panther without it, though not every song has to become the Pink Panther!

[@camillesindell2740]

Wonderful phrasing, and very beautiful. Beats the hell out of struggling with sheet music arrangements and much more satisfying. Do you offer zoom private lessons? . BTW Your poor dracaena needs more light or euthanasia: free house plant advice! 😂

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

Hahah - London weather. Those poor plants....and yes we offer virtual lessons! www.contemporaryschoolofpiano.com

[@charlenemisuraca3473]

lol

[@mick947]

Unfortunately I can’t see which notes are being played, I can just about see the keyboard..and that’s partly in the shadow. The rest is brilliant.

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

I notice with a lot of KZbinrs, they are far too reliant on looking at fingers, rather than looking at the concepts and measuring the intervals themselves on the piano. Even with high quality camera angles, and colour grading, which this channel has (and is something very rare for KZbin piano videos as they are usually home made) this is not a substitute for putting the listening in, and working on the concepts at the piano yourself.

[@MrWolfmantim]

Norah Jones did not write this song!!! What kind of teacher are you if you don't acknowledge the real composer?

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

I never said on the video that Norah wrote this song. But her cover of it made it hugely successful, I don't think Jesse Harris would mind at all of the great success from Norah's recording of the song . "What kind of a teacher I am" - will I guess one that has methodologies of learning chords, dissonance, progressions, and ways of combining it with improvisation. If people want to know about the history and origins of a 1999 pop song, there are plenty of places where they gain such trivia.

[@MrWolfmantim]

@@contemporaryschoolofpiano My apologies for being offensive. I realize in rereading my comment that I was out of line and unfair to you, a stranger to me.

[@contemporaryschoolofpiano]

@@MrWolfmantim thank you for your kind words. And at the end of the day, music is bigger than us all - including this humble song. Have a lovely day.
