PIANO CHORDS: The ULTIMATE Guide to go from BASIC to ADVANCED!

[@timoschmeichel5913]

I am a classical, professional musician for 15 years now and I was searching for a way to teach my daughter playing the piano in a simple and easy way to have fun, because she was bored of learning notes and chordes, when I found your videos. Let me say , I am impressed by the way you explain the harmonic stuff without getting complicated, but still producing a nice bright sound. Thank you!

[@nstrug]

This is genius. So basically hold a root sus2 chord and muck about in the bass and you can get all the chords in the key. Brilliant!

[@malanhemal6574]

Jack, I found if you put your thumb in B when playing E in the bass as you walk up(C scale) it's 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@TaylorMMontgomery]

Please keep doing these Jack and Tay Tay! From one Taylor to another 😛

[@scothinckley]

Thanks, Jack and Anderton's. This series is so accessible, and I'm sure it's given lots of people the confidence to go play music together.

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

Glad this series has helped. It's been great to film and loads more on the way!

[@JDWindtPlaysGuitar]

This is great, Jack. One thing you guys could do is to include the name of the chord, just so we can understand what you're adding and how it "feels", it'd help also when transposing to other tonalities. But this is great, mate!

[@nobbystyles4807]

legend! im feelin it. much prefer feeling my way through the creative process than reading about it..... all hail jack the preacher man!

[@nick2844]

You pretty much sold me on the Nord Electro 6d and just received it. And I can't even play for ****, barely know what a C chord is. Love the videos Jack you're an inspiration! Cheers

[@perlmunger]

Well that was excellent! This old dog learned a new trick today. Thanks!

[@benjaminernest614]

Amazing stuff, Bro!

[@suga4all]

Ha ha ha, what a great approach. You play the root and the 3 with one finger in the left and the thumb, and then add some flavor with the sus2 on top, which means always a different voicing for the chords. Nice one 👍

[@apollotheo9309]

Wish you were my piano teacher in my early days. Thank you

[@vinmando824]

So good. Thanks

[@TonyMusicArts]

Jack - You are giving so much to so many who are struggling to grasp the many wonders 💓of the 88 Keys 🎹 When in the UK 🇬🇧- I’m buying you a pint 🍺🇺🇸

[@janpoulsen4481]

Thanks and keep it coming. I learned more in 17 minutes, than I've done trying to learn from books in more than 17 years ;-)

Brilliant. Thanks Jack!

[@arcadestudio]

Really nice

[@nickh4025]

Jack is such an awesome presenter and teacher. Thanks for this series.

[@krysalanhawk]

Hands down the best beginner piano lessons I've ever come across, I literally stumbled across lesson 1, watched lesson 2, bought a Numa Compact 2 and all of a sudden I'm in love with keyboards again for the first time since the late 80's. Jack you absolutely hit the nail on the head with giving everyone the opportunity to make music right from day one without having to slog through endless repeats of nursery rhyme tunes and boring scales. Wonderful stuff!

[@Quhpi...]

Wow ! Thanks a lot......now i should be better......greets from germany

[@ajotech]

Great playing and you sing darn good too!

[@marcelsaxer6458]

Thank you, Jack, for another great tutorial!

[@Asyouwere]

Your Voice!!! You should show us some more of that because it sounds beautiful!

[@jhn1987]

Very nice practical lesson without getting into too much theory.

[@lorenzotosiart]

This guy s the best xD total love

[@elwhagen]

Amazing "quick and dirty" tricks as you put it. But it really does make it easy to produce lovely chords in a very easy fashion. Thanks a bunch, Jack and Andertons!

[@Chinhoyi62]

Great lesson Jack. Many thanks. I now believe I can fly!

[@DrUlrichSelz]

Dude, this was the first key lesson, I have watched from start to end! Impressive! I will teach my 6 year old and I will investigate further. This content was simply amazing👍🏻 Can you please explain in an extra video the theory behind it?

[@DojoOfCool]

Very cool. Now to sound like a piano teacher.... now take that and play it in all 12 keys, see you next week.

[@Lorneplumber]

Thank you Jack as alway. Quality stuff

Enjoyed this lesson. Seems easy and sounds great. Cheers Jack and TayTay

[@rubenhartmannandreassen1044]

Brilliant video!

[@joanb7180]

This is wonderfully taught. So many possibilities came to mind as I listened. I would like to know a little theory behind the methods to further understand. You make it appear much enlightening to play. I’m learning and I will get this!

[@hazybrain7]

Lovin your video's Jack, this was super cool and super useful too, many thanks !

[@pauljennings6850]

Outstanding lesson. Learned so much from this - thanks.

[@ronaldwild]

Great Jack, love it, your lessons are so musical!! Would be cool to see you teaching us funk rhythm playing...

[@joemctighe]

Late to the party, but these lessons are phenomenal. Thank you so much!

[@KierDarby]

This is a really great, approachable series. Nice work!

[@UncleG-cr9jb]

What an awesome lesson. Thanks so much for doing it.

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

Glad you liked it!

[@learnerslikeus]

Such a fun series, Jack. Love sending these to my keyboard students!

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

Thanks for tuning in dude! Glad they're helping you & your students.

[@richardb2032]

Made me want to learn piano now. Which one should I get to start ??

[@tommullen1109]

It works. It`s magic. Thanks! Keep on!

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

A great little piano chord hack ;)

[@john9291]

this is great, exactly what I need to get started learning chords. I understood everything about the chords but just wanted to know how you get the rhythm for the left and right hands.

[@alexandernagtegaal]

I really enjoy your lessions and the other videos's! I have a question. What are the chord names which are formed with this technique (in the key of C, like you demonstrated). Thanks!

[@rexsplace]

Thank you for ideas! Did you do a video on implementing simple jazz chords into non jazz songs for color?

[@stulebeau7293]

Love these lessons Jack, much prefer this approach over 30min of drilling I III IV into the viewer...

[@carl2youCB]

Hi Jack. I really enjoy your lessons showing keyboard skills. I would like to ask if sometime in the future, you could show some soloing techniques. EG; shredding on a mono synth. Show the correct fingering etc:. Thanks...

[@danfan4707]

I think Jack might be an actual genius.

[@VimyScout]

Nice one Jack 👍

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

Thanks 👍

[@berkut6313]

Late to the 🎉 ! As an amateur keyboardist in various bands, I had overlooked the series for way too long. Even going back to C major was a revelation. I have my on bag of licks, but that Jack-*ss put the Bad-*ss bag of tricks in order (the squib-squib, the one-thumb embellishments etc.). You’re a live-playing musician dream teacher. I’d have more if you could tackle the minor scale, as this is what’s mostly used in you-look-awful-and-depressed-my-dear rock/New Wave/electro stuff in conjunction with the penta, while neo-soul guys seem to constantly go between major and minor. Keep up with the good fun, Jack-of-all-trade/Master keyboardist.

[@robotmartin]

I love it! Thanks for sharing your cheat tricks

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

Always Martin. Thanks for tuning in!

[@willowmusic5]

Hello Jack, Thank you so very much for this series. I had a chance to practice the ideas presented in this lesson. I have two questions about some problems I encountered. First, when I raise my right hand to press the G# with my thumb for the E chord, my index and middle fingers rub against the black keys and make them sound by mistake. How can I get better at keeping these fingers away from the black keys (C# and D#)? Second, in a future video would you please talk about making simple rhythms? I'm used to guitar, where I find it easy to strum a rhythm and change chords. What is the secret to doing this on piano? You are awesome for presenting these lessons!

[@hunterfrederick2731]

This video was super informative! Thank you so much!

[@josephs2791]

Nice video! Any chance you'd want to do a video on those cool soul chords?

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

We've got that one lined up don't worry ;)

[@josephs2791]

@@AndertonsKeyboardDept fack yeah! I ended up getting a polybrute! I loved your videos on it!

[@JOEPASHLEY17]

Hey Jack, what reason do you play the 2nd note usually rather than the 3rd note when you play your C chord? For example you play C/D/G, whereas I would usually play C/E/G for a C chord. Thanks (if anyone else knows please comment).

[@koenroels4549]

That s because he plays a Csus2 Chord (in his right hand). A normal major chord has the 1,3,5 note from the C major scale in a major chord: C E G What he plays is a Csus2 by replacing the 3th note to the 2th note. So you get: C D G. That is used to suspense the sound usually to resolve to a major chord (the I chord for example ) in the key.

[@stefjer8725]

Pff.. I am a simple monosynth technoguy. I will never play with more than 2 fingers I guess. But hey. Jack got me like always !! :D

Magic voicings.

[@darwinalways620]

Happy Birthday 🎉

[@chambre466]

thx

[@0VRLNDR]

That Duxbury falsetto tho

[@mayfly552]

When do we get the video on karate-chop piano technique?

[@brymills]

If I was going to start playing keyboards tomorrow should I go straight for 88 keys or something smaller?

[@AndertonsKeyboardDept]

If you have the space & money for an 88-keys then we would always recommend that for learning the piano. If you want to just get started on some chords/scales something smaller would do but you might grow out of it quickly.

[@seangooden4746]

I have a question for anyone but keyboard that's about $1,000 but you keep playing Neo-Soul with R & B hook up to a MP CX drum machine be kind I'm new to this

[@boratezel]

You can use the Notes mode in MPC to play specific keys or chords, makes it really easy as it takes care of the music theory for you

[@rishabhrai854]

Have a deep interview with people like Daniel Bingham, Polite Mike etc... And pick their mind on how they go about playing piano...
