Just wanted to say that I have discovered your videos and I am very impressed with them. Your practice exercises are wonderfully explained and easy to follow. Thank you so very much - You haave re-ignited my desire to learn to play the piano again at 76!!

[@Kiwi403]

Lisa, you are wonderful. Your personality and sparkling teaching ability shine through and encourage me as I stumble along with tangled fingers and .hands that keep mimicking each another! I will persist. Can you recommend how much time a day to spend on scales or exercises v. pieces? Thank you so much.

[@lr4812]

I am 51 and this is my first ever experience with music. I really love it thank for offering these videos ❤

Thank you for the section on Control. I am 70 this year and have been learning piano for 3 years and I am despairing that I will ever get my hands to put expression into my playing. Lisa, you make it look so easy.

I started learning piano as an adult in May 2021, I am following many of your beginners lessons here, please do more, they so helpful, and Lisa you’re so sweet.☺️

If I don’t learn to play piano I could listen to your voice for 1000 years and it would call me and all the negativity in this world you give me a life and I hope that is beautiful and helpful thank you for being you don’t ever change being who you are you bring such a pleasure for so many human beings and their confidence you are a gift from some energy from some force field from Sam god call it what you want but you are perfect keep doing what you’re doing thank goodness for people like you

[@loisbarnett2546]

maybe someone already mentioned this ... on the exercise for independent hand coordination, on your second time through - when you started w the right hand ( 1 - 2 and -- 4 ) and then added the left hand you reversed back to the first way you played it, meaning when you brought the left hand in your right hand switched to 1 - 2 - 3 - 4. Love you joyful approach.

[@dannygoode2255]

I'm actually a guitar player for 20 years, but been watching Lisa, and her piano lessons, and I'm hooked, I have a purchased £3000 Kawai piano being delivered in 2 days. cant wait to start. thanks Pianote - I am converted and will upload my progress. Thanks again Lisa, You have been inspirational.

[@jerryspencer7916]

Thank you so much, Lisa, for your helpful, fun-loving videos on learning the piano. As a young boy of 6 I had my first year of piano, then 2 more years of lessons from my church music director at age 13 - 14. At that time I was just beginning to play hymns. Then, nothing for almost 60 years. Now I am reviewing and continuing on. Last year I bought a Yamaha portable, digital piano (P-121) and practice almost everyday with 2 sessions of 30 minutes each. It might seem strange, but I actually enjoy Hanon and scales because I know they are helping develop better technique. Following your suggestion I also do arpeggios, and chords with inversions. Several years ago I saw "Scott, The Piano Guy" on PBS TV and realized that someday I would again be learning to play music, but this time I have a strong inner desire to stay with it and become good. Next year I hope to buy a Kawai MP7SE portable digital piano. It is an amazing instrument which has won many international awards. Many musicians feel that Kawai is surpassing Yamaha in offering high-quality, reliable and affordable keyboards. The features on the MP7SE and the beautiful voices (sounds) simply were not available when I was much younger. Thanks so much, Lisa, for your helpful videos. I like the musical content, but most of all, I ABSOLUTELY ADORE YOUR PLAYFUL, FUN-LOVING ATTITUDE. It helps to take the drudgery out of repetition when doing Hanon, scales and other finger exercises. I send you a big warm hug of support for sharing your musical talent with us. Best wishes from the USA, Jerry.

[@joannlee790]

Thank you so much Lisa. These exercises are just what I needed. I had a bone removed from each wrist and I think these are really going to help strengthen my hands, not to mention that they are beautiful sounding. I love listening to and watching your videos and one of these days I plan to join Pianote to have full access to your site. Thanks again!

[@jimredner2649]

I watched this video while away from the keyboard. The exercises look like they will be very challenging and effective. I can’t wait to get to the keyboard and start working on these! Thank you so much, Lisa!

[@PianoteOfficial]

U got it! Let us know how it goes!

[@sherrcon]

she is so good at what she does...and it's not just the pianote lessons but the love of music...thank you...

[@erins7059]

When I was looking for videos about how to get started playing my keyboard, they either put me to sleep, or felt like infomercials (become a piano expert in 3 days!). I love your video because you just teach the lessons in a fun and interesting way. Thanks for the great content!

[@GG-wp3hm]

Love your lessons...been trying to play piano now for 3 weeks..a work in progress but a lifetime in front of me to improve..keep up the good work!

[@AdmMusicc]

This is easily one of the best channels for learning piano. I have been practicing moonlight sonata movement 1 ever since I bought the piano a couple of weeks back and the "control" aspect of it is the challenge. Even though I have learnt the entire thing and committed the notes to memory, the degree of softness/loudness that needs to be taken into account makes my playing much more amateur compared to a professional pianist, even though the song itself seems easy at first glance. This video will hopefully help big-time with perfecting that!

[@miracleabhijapraisingchann8185]

I am blessed with your piano class Dear Lisa God bless you more and more ❤️

[@lbhunter6341]

After finding your videos, I'm wanting to play again after 50 years...and even if I don't, I'm thoroughly enjoying the beauty you bring out of the keyboard...thank you!

I just wanted to say thanks. Your classes have kept my interest and help improve my playing ability, sometimes the class is a little too fast so I slow it down to 75% so I can watch fingers better and get a laugh it’s like watching drunken history. You’re getting great information and a couple giggles. Thank you very much.

[@trevormanning8264]

A side comment you made about hand independence is probably one of the most helpful ever. “You never really master it”. I’ve been trying for years to separate the two and while now I have no idea why I struggled with swing beats or simple arpeggios etc I now struggle with complex blues rhythms. Maybe hand independence is not a skill in itself, you just have to get one of your hands in autopilot eg a repeating arpeggio pattern, but if you learnt a new pattern you start again. I’ve been frustrated that after all these years I haven’t mastered “the skill” of hand independence . Love your lessons by the way.
