I've had numerous teachers, and none of them have taught like this. Thank you so much I will definitely be subscribing

[@akmzaman6640]

Fully agree.

[@kinyuapaul2426]

[@philodachi2043]

Just found this through recommendations. I watched 3 of your videos and learned so much from just 3 videos! Keep up with the amazing work!

[@iceyjf127]

Omg thank you! This was the wall I hit on playing the piano. I know all the chords/notes but never really understood how soloing works! Halfway through the video and you solved my problem. 🙏

[@heratyian]

You have a gift for teaching. Thank you for putting in the time, work, and effort to share your knowledge!

[@gilbertlango185]

I have been following you since 4 or 5 years ago , never , I really appreciated because my playing is coming much more better.

[@CarloBase]

There are lots of channels out there that offer lessons but this guy is the only one i feel like its worth paying for. thank you!

[@carlomarasigan5515]

I really like your video tutorials! this is so much more than learning HANON scales and other classical stuff alone. SUBSCRIBED!

[@kinskighost]

As said above, it really impart a Hornsby type sound to my ears. Thanks!

[@pdevalier]

Nice to see you back. Your lessons are some of the best. I've had your page not only bookmarked but open for years waiting for you to move away from CDs. It was the only thing keeping me from buying. The new site and online products are great. I can finally purchase. It would be great if you could also continue tips on KZbin regularly.

[@davidthornburg8116]

Very good lesson ! I wonder how many young people take advantage of people on KZbin like yourself, that are willing to help people learn. In 1970, when I was 14 yrs old, I couldn't find a soul anywhere to teach me to play piano by ear ! The people that knew how, didn't want to help you. Luckily, I finally found one man and I was the only student he ever had. His son(Tony Brown was playing piano for The Oak Ridge Boys then Elvis and is now a record producer. I think youtube and folks like yourself are a real blessing ! Thanks !

[@playpianobyear]

What a great point you have! Thank you for stopping in and commenting - I am glad to share some of my knowledge and contribute in a way that others didn't 50 years or so ago!

[@juvysmith5007]

[@dkba52]

sounds like what i have heard Lyle Mays, and Bruce Hornsby etc. Thank You sir . the visual templates help so much.

[@timothysnave]

Definitely sounds like Hornsby! I knew it sounded like something, just couldn't figure out what.

[@oscar43211234]

hey, I love your tutorials I was just wondering of you could make a tutorial on what to play in the right hand because I have got the ear to know which chords to play for a song but would love to learn to play those small little right-hand stuff that you play that just it so much better. thanks in advance.

[@phendyefendy9369]

thanks a lot Bro. m waiting for next video. 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍

[@Shedtonz]

I like ur tutorials very helpful Pls can u do a tutorial on how to use blues scales?

[@dkba52]

WOW music magic

[@PasanRANASINGHE26]

I never thought that u were going to play Human nature😁 At the beginning I was wondering why you were playing G and A chords continuously. I really love that song. Anyway awesome video👌

[@ofimhezekiahofim2318]

I love that bross God bless you sir tech me how to play it sir

[@xakirazu14]

When I go for the tension, is it always going to be the fourth chord of every scale?

[@GospelFrancis]

Not necessarily. In this video, if we take the D scale, the fourth chord is G and the tension chord is actually F#m (inversion). If we take the G scale, the fourth chord is C and the tension is on Bm (inversion). Usually a tension chord can be a diminished chord. For eg, in G scale, try playing the following run.. G D Eb dim Em

[@jayzaphy794]

Thank you Sir

[@bersenlm]

I love this

[@roughlymade5959]

amazing video!

[@shomamunkombwe1018]

Wow this is so perfect and timely, i just subscribed hats off dude.

[@MohamedAlaa-Mo]

amazing job man .. but i have one question... why did u choose the G chord and the A chord on the base .. how do u make that choice ............. thanks million times

[@fabianleplis2069]

Awe some and good solo sounds....

[@naingling2779]

thanks you piano

[@frabajille]

Thanks a lot!! A question for you, imagine we are on the C scale, so I start with C chord and do sus2, then I go to Em chord and do sus2 also; well that chord will include F# which is not part of the C scale, so would sound weird. So in this case this would be a chord that I couldn't really transform to a SUS2 if I am on the C scale?? or do it anyway? thanks

[@BrianSamThomas]

Your lessons are awesome! What do you use to get that live tab-sheet on the bottom left corner?

[@playpianobyear]

It's called "Chordie" :)

[@markusriesner165]

Great Video! Which Software do you used to display the virtual piano, notes und chords?

[@maduokafor]

Lovely videos you have here. I'm gradually improving my skills. Did you attend music school?

[@dougnickerson]

This is a good lesson :-)

[@su4691]

[@opium32]

What is the software you're using which shows the chords and notes being played?

[@woutvanopdenbosch936]

[@playpianobyear]

This is the lesson: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpasZ4SDj6eGp6s

[@charlesclair9346]

What app do you use for the visual display of your real-time keyboarding?

[@mrmikez372]

Tensions and resolve in the key of C major please?

[@willow-wf3jf]

I understand how we ought to know the chord numbers, i.e., 1,2,3, etc, but should be also know the names of chords that you are using, i.e. G sus2?

[@mandezadamz4556]

Can you please make a Piano Cover for this song? ====> "Epica - Immortal melancholy"
