Steve Makau thanks bro 😊👍🏽

[@KerryonBass]

Fabulous musicianship as always Warren. I play primarily bass and guitar but I have a midi controller and have been getting more comfortable with it watching your vids. I already have a good grasp of music theory but going back to the basics with piano is just solidifying all the concepts. Taking your advice and my time working through the scales in ALL 12 keys to get my technique going. I know the results will come since I applied similar approach teaching myself bass and guitar. Solid foundation is key! For anyone out there getting started be patient with yourself, follow Warren's guidelines and don't give up. You'll get there in time.

I learned a lot in this video. For the life of me I couldn't figure out polyrhythms (specifically 2:3) until now, for some reason. I got lost in the fancy fingerwork, but it's a joy to listen to you play, Warren, and I was still able to understand the concepts you were teaching. I would be curious to see the beginner's video you mentioned in your comment to Karoly Horvath below.

Please i ask for ur assistance

[@raphaelcasmiri8449]

This is very useful to me%%% Please play in key of F... BE BLESSED & THANKS.

[@LumadiBawono75]

Looking at the way you play , I am lost for words. It is amazing. What is your recipe? That's not rythm alone on there. There are many complicated chords there too I still don't know how to do.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Lumadi Bawono my recipe is that I’m a student of the piano - meaning I never stop practicing and trying to get better. You have to make attributes like; focus, consistency, persistence, patience, structure, and practicing apart of your daily life as it relates to music and the piano.

[@brianramz6681]

Hey Warren, I need help with COGIC style playing. Thanks!

[@magalygouveia]

What was the chorus progressing you play? Would you mind sharing ? . Thanks. You are a great teacher. Great explainer ... very clearly

I do see the chorus on the screen. But why... why such progressing? Could u explain it please. 🤔

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Sung-Han Hung you got to tell me the exact timeframe where you referring to in the video

[@Hannah-rl3ng]

Thank you for responding so quickly. I'm in shock.. it is at 13:44... I also like to learn about that 12 blue bars at 23: 58. I am early intermediate piano player. I serve Church for many years. I really would like to bring my leave up. Tiered of basic chords.🙂 I do know how to add extra notes in between choruses. just the sound is so basic that I'm tired of them. If you can give me a suggestion on "how"or which video I should buy that will actually really help me to bring my level up. Thx

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Sung-Han Hung this by not be the answer you were hoping to receive, but that entire section was improvised. I’m able to do this at Will from experience - these are progressions I’m already familiar with so it’s easy for me to pull from.

[@Hannah-rl3ng]

Your reply is much Appropriated... 🙂

[@donovanthemba]

Thank you Warren, I'll have to slow down that video. Can you please make a tutorial on how to hamonize and be audible when playing with a band especially when there's a base guiter, when it( the base guiter) joins in, it now holds the chord progression of the song, as the pianist what do you do then... embelish??

[@jonahreuben889]

[@lavaruscarter384]

How are you utilizing the pedal with this swing

[@karolyhorvath7624]

I wish somebody made videos about rhythm that are beginner friendly,. Always playing with a METRONOME, SLOW tempo (something that a beginner can follow and play), no fancy chords.. I think most of the cross-rhythms can be shown and taught with ONE or at most two FINGERs per hand. Replacing single finger moves with chords or scales is relatively easy... rhythm is hard. At least.. for me. Are there videos on youtube that follow these principles and show the ESSENCE of a rhythm?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Karoly Horvath thank you for the feedback, I’ll do I a more beginners video covering rhythm based on your request and suggestions. Thanks

[@karolyhorvath7624]

Thank you Warren! This was more like a cry-out and the fact that you've interpreted it as a feedback shows you're a kind soul. To be clear I could follow more or less the first 10 minutes (well, I could only feel what was going on at 5:50... :). Tapping and vocalizing the rhythm is a great idea, I've found konokol / the takadimi system / other variants that helped me to internalize some rhythms. I wonder why rhythm teaching is so neglected. There were several books written in the last two hundred system (Schmitt, Hanon, Liszt, you name it..) that teach step-by-step hand independence, even/smooth playing, finger movement and positioning, scale harmonizations... Why isn't rhythm treated in a similar fashion with a good progressive system? Am I missing something? I guess people who attend to a piano school pick this up through a series of small musical pieces (gavottes, tiny etudes...). But I feel this method tightly couples the rhythm to the actual piece/melody, and it could be taught independently just like the any other building block you learn, like scales, chromatic fingering, playing a melody with octaves and so on.. Thank you again, and can't wait to hear what you'll come up with!

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Karoly Horvath honestly in my opinion, I think it’s neglected because it’s difficult to teach rhythms. For me rhythm comes naturally, I can feel pulse in my bones, it’s just something I’ve always had. But I will make it my duty to create a method any folks struggling with this concept.

[@karolyhorvath7624]

Hi Warren, I think if it's hard to teach it's because it is taught the wrong way. I'm serious. I never naturally felt rhythm, dance... Yet everything I've learnt became second nature and now feels completely natural (octave bass, tri__et, blues shuffle, 3+3+2, 1 andof2, ..). I had to internalize rhythm to my body: counting, verbalising, clapping, singing helped a lot. I also practice on the jew's harp and that forces you to synchronize your hand movement and breath, and that did wonders too. I feel some part of rhythm education should be instrument-neutral. I think there are only two key elements: One is a good set of exercises that progressively teaches you new things, slowly raising the bar, making sure that each exercise only adds a small challenge. The other key element is a slow pace. Test on a beginner what's the tempo they can digest a new exercise. I think that's really crucial. Some of the stuff I had to learn at a snail's pace (e.g.: 52bpm), yet now I have no problem playing it at a fun tempo (eg: 170bpm). Let me know if I can help you with anything!

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

[@BlessedOne686]

Mr Warren, I don’t read music. But I had a theory and tested it. When u were speaking on triplets, I played a metronome and you were saying “tri-pl-et” in 6/8 timing. Consequently, Can I understand playing triplets in the hands as playing 6/8 in one hand and playing 4/4 timing in the other hand?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

That is correct 👍🏽

[@HectorDavidPoloCheva]

I live in Panama

[@evertdude]

hi explain please in wich key you play precous lord, because the chords seem so complex to figure out? thx for the lesson greetings

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Evert D. It in the key of C

[@evertdude]

Thx for the quick answer!

[@cynthiastory8603]

Warren, you use the term "grid", is that the same as "getting in the groove"?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Pretty much 😊. Or also feeling those beats and the subdivisions, I sometimes refer to them as grid, like a graph page

[@TheSllik]

13:30 sounds pleasant, it is C major scale, then the relative minor A but the B Flat Major chord fits? in theory why? how do u think about it ??

[@TheSllik]

Well i guess because a minor and u move a half step up and make it a Major B flat major, then it will sound nice. Conversly, again at G major u went up a half step but instead played minor A flat to give a nice interesting sound.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Sorry I’m not sure I understand the question

[@TheSllik]

Sorry, from exactly 13:40 can you explain how you think or the thought process behind the B flat major to this chord progression, it sounds good. Starting from C (1st chord) then you went A minor (6 chord) then half step up to B Flat major ? Then to G major... and here you did that embellishment again. G major half step up to A Flat Minor into A minor(6 chord) again. Thanks :)

Warren, could you turn the Addictive Keys into Pure CF Sampling?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Delano Douglas I’m not sure what CF Sampling is

[@delanodouglas6141]

Well! The Pure CF Sound Engine is the result of years of piano-making history combined with state-of-the-art sampling technology and piano expertise. Yamaha is the industry leader in digital piano technology, and you can hear this in the Voices that utilize the Pure CF piano sample. The sound of the renowned Yamaha CFIIIS 9' concert grand piano is faithfully reproduced, allowing for incredible dynamics and expressiveness, making the DGX-650 worthy of the Yamaha name.

[@delanodouglas6141]

You knew Yamaha knows Pure CF Piano Sound engine. It's better than Full Concert Grand (DGX-640 Piano sound).

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Delano Douglas cool, unfortunately my knowledge is this area is limited. Due to years of playing and practice on a 9 foot steinway grand, I a very good ear or detecting If a virtual piano sample is good... so this is why I got the Addictive Keys. Outside of that I don’t know much about the sampling process etc...
