Three Chords to Know on Piano (In Every Key)

[@bobbydazzler4141]

Thanks!

[@laHagans]

Great lesson and the demonstration was easy to follow! Thank you 😊

[@NomeDeArte]

Thank you!

[@mikepenny7147]

very good demonstration. i liked the way you applied the theory to a song that you weren't totally familiar with . this gives learners like me a clear view of how to proceed. thank you

[@PianotvNet]

Ha! Yeah, before this video I thought I knew Sweet Home Alabama pretty well, since it's always on the radio. But it's one thing to hear a song, another thing to attempt to play it. :)

You are a wonderful teacher (.) I kind a figured it out myself when I was a kid and I thought I invented it! Then i moved my fingers to other scales. Thanks for sharing it to everyone. If one does not understand, s/he should watch this video a few times and then ask a teacher. Then play those three cords in many different scales as she explained. This is one of the first step to figure out what to play on left hand when accompanying the melody by right hand.

She is fantastic !

[@ForsakenSR]

This video really helped me understand improvising. You have great teaching skills, you deserve a lot more viewers for sure but I like small communities since it feels so cosy and warm. Thanks for making this video!

[@PianotvNet]

I like the coziness as well!

[@Mrfailstandstil]

Playing a cadence and a bunch of notes in the same key is not improvising

[@soothingtrax]

Thanks for another great lesson! One of my favorite instructors on youtube. I am finding these little nuggets of piano wisdom very helpful.

[@mozelb16]

Thank you.Simple and informative.

[@septobus]

Yesss, more Tsunami! Also, I learned something which was nice. Thanks!

[@PianotvNet]

If only Tsunami knew she was a crowd pleaser.

I am a guitarist learning piano. I play this on guitar in a band. With the exception of just a couple parts the whole song is really just a monotonous V IV I chord progression in the key of G. It’s almost impossible to lose your spot in the song. The biggest hits seem to have the simplest arrangements. I’m going to try to play this on the keys. Thanks for the lesson.

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Merci beaucoup for this. I started at 65 years to learn the piano, so you can teach an old dog new tricks. Hope your cat doesn't mind.

[@mikejardee5979]

Wow! Just started out 3 weeks ago, over my head for sure. hoping in couple months I will understand what was said in this video :) How do I fine your very beginning videos? I'm 59 and I'm going to learn how to play, just retired and have time to learn. Not sure if you will ever see this. Thanks

[@karinvasu3005]

I love this video and your cat!!! 💖😂

[@Carmelobrian]

Great improvisation. I play very robotic. Don't know if I'll ever be able to improve like that. Btw. Please make a video on your cat

[@PianotvNet]

Just my cat only? Like dress her up, or do a video of her chasing a laser pointer or something? :)

[@Carmelobrian]

+pianoTV yeah, like a little brief vid on him. His name, how you guys came together, funny stories etc.

[@PianotvNet]

Rich Brian Ha ha! Sure, added that to my requests list! :)

[@EliGodfrey]

Heyyyy, great vid. Is your ebook still available? I know this video is old but I clicked the link and put in my email address and never got anything ☹️

[@7karlheinz]

Just a really, really minor change... :-)

[@underzog]

Even if I can play the Winter Wind (suggested by one of your videos), what you played is something I cannot do. I learned about the I, IIII, and V7 chords in an adult ed class, but my ex music teacher said I have to learn how to transcribe the late Ted Wilson and that famous Carol woman to really play pop songs and transcribing from ear is something that I cannot do. ps. II know everyone writes it as IV, but the Roman numer for four is IIII. Roman numerals are a bitch to multiply, that is why we use the indo arabic numer system.

[@TheSunshinedreamer1]

Allysia, I am jamming with you and I have no sheet music - thank you!

[@supremelc3667]

I’d say it’s a tasty arm... but i’d have to test it myself!

[@GarryBurgess]

Poor A, only 2% want to use that little chord in key of C. I thought that Am would have more life than that.

[@NaturalBornChilla666]

Wait, sorry if I missed something obvious, but didn't she only show us two different kinds of chords (major and minor)?

[@javierdeljeur]

Im sorry buy... isn't "sweet home alabama", as you play it, in the key of D? D (not G) sounds like the tonal center... Anyway, thanks for the lesson. Ill be practicing those chords in al 12 keys for the rest of january!

[@Vykk_Draygo]

I'd say it's G major. You could argue for D mixolydian, but that makes no real difference in how you read and play the music. It looks like G major, the notes are all in G major, and it's easier to remember where everything goes in G major (to me, at least). Unless you are improvising, then the disctinction is mostly irrelevant (for playing).

[@carib2703]

javierdeljeur It's played in D Mixolydian, but if it were to be written on sheet music it would be in the key of G. The G chord or Tonic is still the tonal center in this chord progressions since the C chord to the G chord is a plagal cadence (amen cadence).

[@pounamu2394]

whats major and minor? sorry. I'm a total beginner

[@supremelc3667]

A major is a just above a Colonel and a minor is under 18 years of age.

[@LoCoZappers]

[@johna6648]

The presentation speed is too fast for me to follow.
