How to get the backing track to this music?

[@edgarguerra7688]

Thanks for your time to help everyone that love piano music. What can I do to start learning about your lesson. Do you have any book? I have little knowledge about music theory but it's not enough I really need a lot of practice to succeed. Thank you again.

[@lisarussell8553]

How do I get backing tracks you use and others?

[@nsk5282]

Jonny, your lessons are just what "the doctor prescribed" for me! I play classical music and can play by ear, but it's the improvisational skills the area I want to improve. Your instructions are very clear, precise, easy to follow, and give results - you are the best teacher and the nicest person! Thank you so much!

[@koekoek2839]

this all was sooo beautiful.. i'm sad i only know it since today.. I'm deff gonna listen it more often! Keep up the good work Jonny, I hope I'll be a good piano player as you one day! :)

[@PianoWithJonny]

Thank you!

[@eugenetswong]

You are a real educator of music. I am a retired tutor of The Registry of Guitar Tutors and Piano Guild of America. I also am a Violinist and Double Bassist. I have an Honorary PhD in Music Composition, Arranging, Orchestrating and Conducting. Keep doing what you do! Your marketing plan is remarkably interesting!

oh wow ! felt like i was floating when i heard the Love progression you played, each one is truly lifting. would love to be able to play them but I am only just learning to play. would you have the music on a music sheet I could download.

[@binglim1]

That is really good. I love it.

[@kouadioangebasile8530]

Love this channel.

[@carmenrose6397]

Thank You ! 🤗

[@authocharmyon8812]

Love this one

[@raymondsmith7668]

fantastic jonny.

[@dougfelsenthal]

Jonny - As you may know by now I am transposing your technique to the accordion. I love this lesson in particular, because the left hand is kept simple. I would like to be directed to more of this. If you are familiar with the accordion, my LH is restricted in piano terms, but I can do all the base tones and if I take off my lower reeds, it sounds pretty much like a piano. Anyway, I can follow this easily. On some of your videos you call the left hand simple but in the end it's not so simple from my point of view. I also now understand more of the G/B type notation and I can do that using both left and right hands as you show. It's been a great help to me - please keep it up.

[@jimkangas4176]

Good for you. I'm primarily a guitarist (and pianist) but I played accordion as a youngster about 60 years ago for a few years (it wasn't the chick magnet I had hoped for!). One thing you might try is to just play a bassline with your LH (which this is doing but just obscuring it a bit). Polyphony always sounds great.

[@mugabonzizafredy234]

Hungry and thirsty for more 😥😥 please give me more ♬🎹🎸 You're killing me !

[@samuelchan2411]

Thank u legend..

[@coach3958]

Thank you dude. You da man!

[@belay626]

thanks they are beautiful would love to do them one day or soon !

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

Johnny I like to play stuff like this..its ver relaxing. I enjoy playing songs I have mastered and playing them in 11 other keys. It makes for more confidence. Also I have found that certain keys like Db have a certain rich sound to my ears. 👍 ed.

[@b-il-n]

Jonny, you're one of my favs. I've learned a ton from your instructional vids, which are enriching and enlightening. Btw Another song employing this progression is Lionel Richie's "Jesus is Love."

[@janettopham3897]

Power Harmony. All the different key notes are just simply breath taking. You play so beautifully, oh how i wish i could play already. please could you put key notes on a sheet so that i can download

[@widitruth]

This is very useful even for long-time piano musician

[@paulcookseymmh5941]

Just started singing Say you Say me Lionel!

[@smithjohn383]

So this is 1-5 6-3 4-1 2-5 ? And I assume that Canon in D was in this case "Canon in C". These lessons are absolutely genius. Basically very simple but the results are, indeed, amazing.

[@julianho7672]

I love music instrumentally.

[@fiha4186]

Wow, this is amazing

[@kouadioangebasile8530]

Wow, this is the chord progression for the hymn "Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God"

[@ashkanjannatikiya2592]

helpful

[@mugabonzizafredy234]

O turns 😥♬♬♬🎹 mind working starting from nursery hymns (jingle bells , merry christmas & amazing grace) I'd like to learn more about this 6 accompaniment 😍😂

[@gildaschecker4918]

Thank you Jonny! This is another wonderful lesson together with so many other's . I'm a beginner and interested in cocktail- and jazzpiano. My problem: how to find out the right lesson(s) and not to be overwellmed of too many lessons. I would like to practise that all. Does anyone know that problem? Any advice? Many greetings from Gilda

[@maestro2033]

I am becoming a fan💎💎💎💎🍾⚡️

[@madretzlpiano4817]

did someone count how often he said the word 'gorgeous'? XD nice video I'm gonna try that out :D

[@MatthewInstrumentalMusic]

Please make a video on how to create backing track, that would be great

[@bonnieschnerr4519]

I like your using ‘threes’. I have worked using threes in my work as a composer and arranger. Four Part Harmony can be established with only three notes. I’m 68 years old and still use this. I also like you using simple language when teaching.

[@Manolation]

I love the way you’ve teach

[@molloby]

gc

[@janettopham3897]

Slip notes, truly uplifting one's soul, please please sheet music for that also.

[@largolegato]

well rhymed 👍

[@sandovalsantos9698]

Muito bom

[@arthurrollins9234]

Hi Jonny, What app do I go on to find the backing track?

[@vickeysmiles2594]

Bro you're cool bro I changed my playing style now I'm not a dumb ass anymore who sticks into a circle Thank you bro

[@ivanmectin9106]

double like !

[@TetoArusu]

This Chord Progression is used in a lot of Japanese School Choruses :)

[@wlocas]

That is super interesting thanks for sharing that such an incredible world we live in I love all the cultures

[@TetoArusu]

@@wlocas Sure thing 👌

How to take just love progression course? Do I need to become a member first ?

[@arthurrollins9234]

Hi Jonny I need the backing track for this lesson please.

[@Bimantha-vz9rl]

Please how to get the backing track. Thank you. God bless you

[@eugenetswong]

Jonny, your version of Maroon 5's "She Will Be Loved" sounds very different than what I found on KZbin. Are you playing a different version than what is in the music video? Their's sounds dark. Your's sounds bright and romantic.

[@majdifadhloun1672]

How to download the backing track audio please 🙏 just to work on alone

[@jeremywigglesworth5340]

Power harmony is very Studio Ghibli?

[@nijandhannija174]

Dear Brother can u teach the 1st grade of Trinity piano lessons...?

[@wawaxzfella]

Hi Johnny, I am liking your videos. I am a complete newbie. I want to start with an intermediat piano forJazz. What would you recommend? I like the one you are using , it may suit me for the longer term. Please advise

[@arthurrollins9234]

How to get the backing track for the most romantic chord progression?

👍

[@tijmenboogaard1518]

do you have a video of playing different rythyms with both hands because it's hard or have any tips??

[@arthurrollins9234]

Can I get the backing track to the most romantic piano tutorial?

[@lanphanh]

Start 7:57

[@napolitano2728]

I instantly thought of "Go West" by the pet shop boys, LOL

[@philliptoone]

2:08 How in the world have I played Cannon in D and not realized the bass just walks down the scale like that. 🤯

[@philliptoone]

I just bought a bass guitar yesterday. I'm going to practice the chord progression on the bass.

[@KIPARI.]

I’ve played it on a bass before, you can just play the major note of the chord to make it easy

[@ManoBlanca]

Bro, can I use 00:40 - Love Progression in a rap song? Do I have your permission?

[@atadbitahistory9660]

Nobody owns chord progression, you can use whatever you want :)

[@raniericampos9050]

Canon in D, is that you??? LOL

[@12Keys]

A girl fell in love with me while I was playing this progression

[@radiozelaza]

[@insanedrummer89]

Slip note? Grace note

[@j.gonzalez1146]

Depends on what type of music you play.

[@TheMrMRsmoke]

The romantics era conposers such as chopin doesn’t sound like this at all tho

[@penponds]

He described this a romantic (sounding) style, not as music in the style of the Romantic period (which is itself incredibly broad ranging from Mendelssohn to Satie, with Wagner & Mahler in the middle)!! Great to hear, anyway ;-)

[@vinnyoorsprong62]

please show also the chords in numbers. thanks ;-)

[@feg9417]

Pathétique !!
