Ann 1999, the second-to-last year Jordan had a good head of hair. I don't own a keyboard but I've been playing piano since I was 7, and I did find many of his tips helpful. I personally think Jordan Rudess is the greatest keyboardist in the world. The man plays that D blues scale LIKE A BOSS....................despite his recent hair loss.........
Holy shit, I learned a lot with this video, but I didn't notice that time flies so damn fast. Look at that CRT monitor!!! I use to watch a lot this in the early 2000
the exercises of 50:00 on diminished chord are famous also in a italian method named "Mozzati" in which we start from the whole tone position instead (ex...E F# G# A# C) which is derived from chopin....and there are 4 phases....counting on 1-2-3-4, 1st phase finger down.....2nd keep down.....3rd finger up (others down...that's the tricky) .....4th finger down but doesnt play only scratch the key surface. nice method, in this book it's possibile to see many principles quite similar to those in this video, for ex there are not long exercises wrote down but there are small chapters which give you some principles and ideas and then the student has to develop his own, in this way you have some advantages....first to have a relative small book which contains essentially all mechanical problems the studend has to resolve to get a complete control of the keyboard.....and second the student has to be active and always keep mind on what to do, some older italian methods instead were longer even 10/12 books and with every exercise written down from start to end which could lead the student to do things without thinkig of what he is doing but only reading like a machine. I prefer the approach of rudess....some guide strategies and then you have to construct your own exercises to develop your skills.
For those wondering how to count the rhythm he played at 20:33, it is a 16th note rhythm with the following hitpoints 1 & (2) & (3) &a4e& Bracket implies that we don't play the beat
Is it me or is Jordan Rudess's wrist way too low for a lot of this tutorial, I mean, perhaps that is his style but for especialy weighted keyboard action, like pianos, that can be a major technical flaw in executing really relaxed playing and cause cramp, might be alright for harpsichord, organ and other keyboards but not piano in my experience and could cause a lot of problems in prolonged and ergonomic practice.
People who despise 240p. Don't get me wrong, the techniques and exercises presented are FANTASTIC, and I'd expect no less from a wizard like him. But maybe it would be nice to have an updated version that wasn't filmed and edited with a potato and without all the cheesy editing and sound effects? That also showcases some of his newer techniques that he's surely come up with after 2 decades of maturing musically? (This video must at least be 2 decades old, as he never mentioned DT as an act he played with, even though that's what he is now most well known for.)

I actually enjoy these clinic videos more than concerts. You can see and hear everything and you actually get something useful out of it.
So you dislike concerts. Noted
This is a must watch video for any Keyboard player. Jordan is an absolute beast.
i really dig that sus chord inprove at 19:00. Very futuristic and pleasing to my ears.
Straight from Keith Emerson

i guess I'm quite off topic but does anyone know a good site to stream newly released series online ?
@Gavin Joel Thanks, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it!!
@Kalel Ezequiel You are welcome :D
52:33 Drop The Puck -- Excellent!!

You're not Jordan so shut up.
LOTS of really good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
thank you. this is immensely helpful. lots of great ideas. really appreciate it.
thanks for keeping this up...it is a wealth of great info!
no wonder he is so good today... he has been doing this for like 50 years!!!

It's totally Marty Friedman
I still have this on VHS
I picked up a lot of cool little tricks love your stuff
Excellent !!!!
0:14 - AWESOME 😎
0:35 - the left hand bass part!😮😮
Dear Jordan, thank you so much for these lectures! Greetings from Salzburg, Austria to New York City.
Great teacher
the one and only who can make piano sound like guitar, aws
OMG..trills with the fifth finger..
Great sir. .
Lol Jordan looks like young Roland Orzabal from Tears for Fears with that hair!
Jordan is kinda like Saitama... Back then he have hairs... But after too much practice... He lost his hair.. And became the greatest keyboardist...
Still got the original VHS, should transfer it to DVD someday.
I'm getting exhausted just watching this lol
37:22 its the best anti-example ever
Amazing video and skill!
rudess has hair. no beard lol
+W3zz R0xx His hair was transformed to beard :D
hahaha thats funnylol
essa vídeo-aula é muito boa.
I bought the vhs back in the day.
Wow, before the Dream Theater times... 90s!
And of course great player with a lot of discipline to practise a lot
Wonderful
A simple Jordan's C chord sounds better than anything I could play
*it’s the Kurzweil keyboard sound patches* 😎👍🏾
Man - just look at those huge supple hands - they look like they totally dominate the keys even before he plays a note.
He's just a genius
he looks so much like the actor who plays Mozart in the movie Amadeus!
+Alexander Lee No he doesn't you fucking idiot.
He looks like marty friedman
Oh my god, the hair!!
25:00 wither's chorus :)
Actually, it's quite common chord progression. Check "4 chord song" by Axis of Awesome ;D
29:30 and the rest of the bass section - inspired S2N
11:02 - State of Grace
Throughout the video, it sounds like the camera operator's digital watch is beeping...
Why are there so many beep sounds in this audio?
is that marty friedman talk and play keyboard?
Is it me or is Jordan Rudess's wrist way too low for a lot of this tutorial, I mean, perhaps that is his style but for especialy weighted keyboard action, like pianos, that can be a major technical flaw in executing really relaxed playing and cause cramp, might be alright for harpsichord, organ and other keyboards but not piano in my experience and could cause a lot of problems in prolonged and ergonomic practice.
He still does it to date, when he's holding a note for a while.
Looks super painful to me though. Ouch..
I think I once read that he thought about changing it before but got the advice that at his stage at the time he shouldn't relearn it anymore..
That's his style ok? And he compose songs, how about u? What songs u compose. I dnt even know u
I'm surprised how low his wrist is. How does he not get RSI?
18:36 😳WOOW😳
24:30
Good job bro
17:37 - 😎
Is there anywhere that this dvd can still be purchased?
+Charles North It was never a dvd, only vhs that i can remember.
Thank you Puny Poppy
great !
WOW HAIR
Show!
What the fuck just happened.... lol
DAT HAIR
23:54 --- is that a sus glissando ---omg what is that?😮
Dude turn off the beep
i watching the subtitle of this video... lol!
This can‘t be Jordan Rudess, the guy has too much hair on his head ;)
RUclips didn't even exist
2 people dislike this lesson are envy.:)
To practice... Typo's
27:50

Interesting, but I can have enough of the 'diddley diddley diddley widdley widdley' playing.
