@@bstanley5767 happy it's starting to make sense!

@@torysanderson4436 well I have many jokers in my deck... Wish you well Tori! Say hi to the uk for me

@@RaviSreenivasanOrthopod hopefully I was clear enough :-) I didn't prepare just spoke from my brain :-)

@@IgorKryltsov hopefully it was clear reach out if you have any other questions :-)

@@markstanley9370 wonderful I'm glad it was helpful for you

@@carylchapman9952 thanks for taking the time to listen and providing feedback :-)

@@IgorKryltsov yes you can do that swapping hands is quite normal, I'm wondering, are you thinking about chords in the left-hand and then Melody in the right hand?

@@grassrootspiano Exactly! Specifically what fingers are recommended to play left-hand chords :)

I spent some time on it it turns out that the 1st chord in this exercise is 1st inversion(!) of G-Maj and it is 1-2-5 (right) and 5-3-1(left). The second one is the 2nd inversion (!) of E-Min and is 1-3-5 (right) and 5-3-1(left). The third one is B-Min and it is 1-2-4 (right) and 5-3-1(left). While people can play chords using different fingers there are: a) highly recommended ways, b) allowed and c) not recommended ways to do so. In this case, it seems all the chords when played with the left hand are recommended to be played 5-3-1

Matron Nee, Nee, I believe you're one of my original members! Thank you for rooting me on through this journey. It's not always easy ;-)

@@IgorKryltsov this chord progression was played broken (notes separate)

​@@grassrootspiano Thanks, so technically chord progression broken is not a chord progression and has no own term/name. It is just your video description confused me 'Practice chord progressions' - I watched the video and said - this is not a chord progression as to how I understand it :). I am practising scales and finger dexterity exercises and haven't touched chords yet.

@@IgorKryltsov it's OK, interesting thoughts we're going from one chord to another hence the name progression What would you call the title?

@@IgorKryltsov I remember now I didn't have much room on the thumbnail call and see if I can switch it to this broken chord pattern

@@grassrootspiano I read a bit more on chord progressions and I am talking here as a beginner :) It turns out you can play a chord harmonic (all keys together) or ascending/descending - keys in sequence. In this case for example playing V-I can be playing G-B-D together and after C-E-G together - chord progression. But if you play sequentially G-B-D-C-E-G it will also be called a chord progression played ASC. Right? What I do not understand is why playing sequentially G-B-D-C-E-G is called a chord progression but playing for example sequentially C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C is called a scale :)

Hi there no problem :-) about seven seconds in the video, I mentioned at 6/8 time. I also have the chords written above with the time signature. I hope that helps.. This is a general application, but C Major D minor and G major chords, are used and billions of songs! This is just lesson one, so I'll revisit your thoughts and lesson two. Happy playing. BTW, what kind of music do you like?

@@carylchapman9952 thank you so much, Caryl ! I'm going to add in additional warm-ups with this format. Trying to keep things easier for me as Bob is no longer editing ;-)

@@liamonconlocha4898 🤔, not always!

@@Isa-ym3bb glad it was helpful. I worked hard on this lesson. Thank you for your feedback :-)

@@retrobilly1719 you’re welcome! Maybe almost beginner friendly :-)

The Apregio pattern is the hardest,Making progress though ,Enjoy pract them all

I’m getting Pretty Alright with this.What Video should I do Nexr? BTW I joined your Drum Channel!

@@retrobilly1719 awesome that channel is just starting off, but I'm planning to do some drum set playing with piano, playing and having fun! I think the rhythm playlist should be the best option. But let me check :-)

have you tried these lessons? ruclips.net/video/cMdygsQI30Q/видео.html

@@MusicByNancy23 do you think the video that I created is for beginners?

Yes, the rhythm alone is tricky

How’s your piano playing going these days?

@@grassrootspiano Not practicing as much as I should, I’m taking care of my dad (has terminal cancer). I definitely miss it and still enjoy watching and learning from your videos . Appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge with all of us to learn and enjoy ❤️

@@PianoMatronNeeNee oh man, I’m sorry that you’re going through that tough time with your dad. I’m sure he’s so appreciative. What you’re doing for him. Maybe you could play him some piano music! Best wishes thinking of you and your family.

Thank you for your feedback, Caryl! If I can swing it next week, I have a surprise as Tori gave me an idea :-)

Good to hear from you! Thank you for the kindwords comments like this help me to continue the journey of creating and teaching :-)

Thanks for saying hello I did not notice the out of sync. Did you have a certain part in mind? I’m using a new video editor and hopefully the rendering is not messing things up.

⁠​⁠@@grassrootspianoAll of the overhead video and its midi display is slightly out of sync with the audio. I am sure you will see it if you watch on YT. The commentary video is fine.

@@pc2nite thank you, that stinks. Sorry about that.

Thank you for saying hello! I love composing to, but haven’t had a chance these days. Do you have a preference with composing? Meaning different styles, composing for piano, etc.

@@grassrootspiano I usually compose for a variety of styles, mainly focused on piano and digital composition.

Thank you Tori so much. What a wonderful idea. I will definitely definitely think about your suggestions. Sleep well! :-)

Do you have an idea in the video where this is happening? I did have a problem with my camera.

@@grassrootspiano somewhere in the 2nd time through your hands were changing but not the R.H and L.H on the screen.

@@michellemonet4358 ok got it, I did this video quickly as I’ve been terribly busy. Good news I’m doing the lesson next week but adding to it so I can clear that up. Thank you so much for your feedback.

Thank you for letting me know!🐾🐾

That’s great to hear! What kind of music do you like playing?

Sounds like you have a plan! Slow and steady. Sometimes I start off practicing focusing on the weakest part and stay consistent as that might help

For this video lesson, you could just focus on one hand at a time super slow and then try both hands super slow. One phrase at a time. Let me know how it goes. :-)

Yes, we all go through a right of passage and then at some point in our life we just smile when there’s a mistake breathe deep and continue! it takes the edge off (to just accept a mistake as it’s an ordinary occurrence)

Thank you for your kind words, Tori! And thank you for your support :-)

Yes, our weaker hand always takes a bit more TLC and practice. What kind of music do you enjoy?

I’m thinking of focusing on rock ‘n’ roll tunes on this channel

@@grassrootspiano 👍

Did you try the exercises?

love the fun bass lines!

Thank you for such positive comments, Amy!

You are very kind with your wonderful comment! :-) I’m so happy to hear that you’re finding passion through piano and music. I wish you well.

You’re very, very welcome!

Thank you so much, Caryl- I hope the weather improves where you live! In the meantime chill and play some arpeggios!!

Sorry to hear you have been sick, Michelle. It sticks! I have been sick for too long! YUCK! Say hello to Australia for me 🙂
