That rag roll is a great technique.

The most conscientious and top notch piano teacher in the whole wide world

[@ThePianoMan1953]

If my piano teacher had been Jonny when I was a kid, I wouldn't have quit! 😢

[@moonlightrecKordz]

Conscientious has been my word of the day this week.

[@weonadomicilio398]

This vid is great but could you emphasize a little in which notes and chords use with the left hand

[@JoeGator23]

Slow the video down and try to emulate until you've developed muscle memory. The keystrokes are easier to see and match-up, too. Play along then speed it up...

[@beaglemawm1517]

Excellent!! Thank you so much for this training. I’ve always wanted to learn ragtime. ❤

[@JRobson1955]

Good beginner lesson. Very clear and easy to understand.

[@guesswilsey]

I like how he keeps trying to add vibrato to his piano :D

[@fryderykchopin3974]

It called ringing a note. I am a pianist and I have no idea what it does

[@ollieanntan4478]

This is the absolute best video ever on KZbin. You're a master of knowing and teaching piano!

[@ginaooi6522]

Nice! LOVE the Rag Rolls.

[@MrEyesof9]

Great video! I’m half through and I cant wait to go do this on bass. I’m an over the shoulder bass player, this moment I was wondering how I could play a ragtime melody, YATZEE!

[@jasonberezny9705]

Excellent and easy to follow presentation . Thank you! 🙂❤️🇨🇦

[@04fys513]

Very Good lesson, but I’m having trouble following what you are doing with the left hand when you get close to the 14:30 mark and forward.

[@BiggestRascal]

I think he's playing the G 7 Chord. Playing the 5 and then jumping up and playing the 7, 1 and 3, then playing the 1 and jumping to the 7, 1 and 3. And later on when he does it I think he plays the G7 chord again and plays the 5 then jumps to the 7 and 1 then he plays the 1 and jumps to the 7 and 1

[@drumwarlock]

Thank you so much for this!

[@nickharris5684]

Thanks dude you rock 👊

[@tucoerthal]

That spot on the keyboard is driving me insane.

[@christinagraf9724]

Great 👍 I spoke to soon Didn't get a full lesson.. Don't know why I keep watching. 🙄

[@KellyBrown-lv8ep]

Great player! Where can I find the other types of rag rolls? This video only has the forward rag roll. Thank you!

[@yepsidoodles4867]

You’re amazing

[@confusedconfucius5758]

Maybe you can do the ragroll with Bach's prelude in c major from well tempered clavier, lots of different chords to work with.(For practice or for fun ;) )

[@billmiller3425]

GET ON WITH IT!!!!!!!!

[@20alphabet]

The dislikes are from tuba players.

[@leowai9854]

No the dislikes mean dis they like

[@person640]

Leo Wai lol

[@FrostyLosty]

Jokes on them we can’t even see their dislikes anymore!

[@emm_arr]

Does it make sense? Yes. Very much so, thank you. I'm not even a pianist. I'm here to see if I can use this for strings.

[@thewindwakinghero7423]

hey remember how you said crash course . . . heh heh heh I uuh. . . Crashed though I'm not one to give up it took me two years for my left hand to begin to co-operate

[@brianscorner5772]

Buddy, I've been playing for 10 years and my hands still won't cooperate w/out a crap-ton of practice.

[@thewindwakinghero7423]

@@brianscorner5772 that's fine by cooperate I mean I can USE the left hand I can play cords but my 12 brain cells can't comprehended playing both together if I were to play song of storms I could play either the melody or the cords

[@brianscorner5772]

The Wind Waking Hero Me too man, me too. If I’m reading sheet music, I only play with one hand for like a week, then I start to put it together. It’s really hard playing hands together.

[@ashleyurban5861]

Can you teach how to play Disney in ragtime version cause I’m completely blocked

[@powermiracle1798]

Learn this just to play thomas the dank engine meme song

[@subarnarekha2122]

Great

[@kevinbihari]

What if the melody is not in a major chord? Like a diminished 7

[@crazy4hitman755]

O f i have to pay😭😭😭

[@smilerface272]

is there a slight accent by duration or dynamic on the 2nd note of the forward rag roll?

[@casperdaghost7836]

Bro looks like the doctor. Eccleston

[@dansteinbok7955]

I just saw that Disney guy teach you this

[@ChrisPowellLc]

[@kiwidoe3442]

[@christinagraf9724]

Thank you for a beginner lesson and an older 60's chick. 🤣

[@Yanoco92]

guys just try to learn the piano by yourself if you don't want to pay online lessons i won't pay for this...

[@edwardc7462]

KZbin is vast becoming just a platform for people to advertise their websites on To start a lesson and finish that lesson by saying To get the rest of the lesson come to my Blady blady bla website is a complete waste of viewers time and shouldn’t be allowed Promising people a lesson then deliberately stopping that lesson part way through is a con KZbin you need to do better

[@clockent]

You're getting some content for free and complaining. What the hell?

[@ThePianoMan1953]

@@clockent He's still living in his parent's basement and thinks everything is supposed to be free.

[@JohnnyFriendly]

KZbin has been a infomercial site for a long time now - there's no other practical way that this site can make money without people advertising their wares. And to be fair, in olden times you would get either a teacher or a book/DVD to learn this, all of it costing money. I think if you're really keen on this you'll need to do just that - you can't expect people to give you the benefit of their expertise for nothing.
