Just want to use this medium to say, JESUS loves you. HE knew you even while you were in the womb. Please repent of your sins now, for judgment is coming upon the earth. JESUS CHRIST is coming again to judge the earth( both the living and the dead). If your name is not found in your the book of life you will be casted into hell for eternity . Accept HIM today and your name will be written in the book of life . Give JESUS a chance, ask HIM into your life.
Sapien Man I’m sorry if you were offended. But o don’t want anyone to go to hell. Thanks for your time. I still love you all the same. But most importantly JESUS loves you. Maranatha
Sapien Man there is a hell, and there is a GOD. And HE loves us very much, that HE died for our sins, and whosoever believes in HIM shall be saved from eternal damnation
Thank you for this video. Teacher for 20 years here... My ears can hear your super power. You’re the first person I’ve ever subscribed to. Please teach me more.
Are you practicing your diatonic chords? Here are the timecodes for the lesson: - Start with a scale (D) - 0:54 - Forming chords from the scale tones - 1:29 - Creating chord progressions (The number system) - 2:50 - How to use this to get better at the piano - 3:54
Pianote thank you I am doing a piano exam in November and one of my chosen pieces is full of chords so this will come in super helpful when I’m practicing
Never learned any of those chords either I. All my years of piano lessons -actually never learned any music theory other than the basic stuff !!! Thank you
I cannot practice regularly as I am employed, but I always look forward to ur new uploads. I admire the way u play and the smooth transition of chords and different techniques. I am from India. Thank you.
Hello, Lisa. I am no piano player but I have been learning a lot from you. You've got the gift of teaching. We homeschool our children, and with Pianote our kids (6 and 8 respectively) are picking up your tips so well. This channel has given me more opportunity to spend one-to-one with my kids. And yes, we follow your advice to laugh at our mistakes when we have to start over. Thank you, Pianote!
Your easy going manner and happy personality is a joy to watch, and I am learning a lot. Thank you from a beginning student , a Grandmother. This is on my bucket list to learn to play piano.
I am adding this to my practice. What amazed me about this was the fact that I can hear the next progression. I think that shows me that my musical ear is getting stronger. Thank you for this lesson
Thanks for your help. I teach children ages 5-12 right now. I am borrowing your ideas for our lessons. I love all the warm up exercises - improvising ideas. We work in small groups and play together on Zoom right now. We also learned the 1234 song chord pattern. I changed the words for my classes. Freestylin with the words. 1234 shut the door 5678 and the golden gate... We just played around with the lyrics in the moment - sang their names etc. keep doing what you are doing!
She teaches so amazingly. I’ve watched so many videos as I’m a self taught pianist and none of them are as clear and fun as she is. Keep it up girrrrrrrl! ❣️
How good of a teacher is she! She makes practicing scales fun and easy! Scales are the most boring thing for most students and you feel like practicing the scales after watching her video. She diserves hunderd of thousands of subscribers on her channel. Even if you have a teacher and follow lessons, there is here that little extra which will turn yiu into a future musician. To be a pianist, you will need your teacher. To have fun and get musical and see progress fast, you watch her videos. Good job!
Merci beaucoup for this Lisa. You really are the most fantastic positive teacher in the universe. I've seen many good teachers on YT, and I'm not putting them down at all. Everyone has something to say. But you have a rare gift.
Couldn't agree more! As someone self-taught on the piano (but with some knowledge of music theory) that's the shortest way I found to play something rewarding right from the beginning.
Very nice lesson and idea. A good way to practice this, along with learning your scales in order of circle of fifths is to do this exact thing. Say i learn my C scale. Practice arpeggios and inversions. Learn all these diatonics. I have a song. Then u learn G major adding that F#. Learn the diatonics. Now you can play all your songs in a different key. Keep circling around the circle of fifths. Now learn ur D scale with F# and C#. Arpeggios. Inversions...etc. Learn the diatonic chords of that family. Rinse repeat. Not only will you be competent in all your scales as you learn them, but you'll also simultaneously without losing time learn a whole song structure. Once you've learned all of these your only real unexplored territory from a beginner's point of view is delving into intermediate to advanced stuff with different flavors of chords. Dominants. Sus. Maj 7. Maj 6. Diminished. And a bunch of other flavors. Many of which you will probably pick up along the way anyway.
Somehow you've managed to keep that infectious childlike cuteness. Hope that you never lose it. Wish more would have it. Oh, and the chord progressions are helpful too. Gonna practice them. ;)
You timed this vid perfectly for me, I have been wanting to make practicing scales a bit more interesting and you nailed it, your smile is infectious and I always feel uplifted after watching your vids. Thanks again from Australia, the land down under.
Thank you for the lessons. I’d like to mention that your energy for teaching is wonderful to see. I am a huge fan and an everyday student of your channel, THANK YOU.
Thanks for good lectures easy to understand for a beginner. I have a keyboard since many years and have played for personal enjoyment with the accompeniment function using 3 fingers for the chords. I don't know reading notes but have ears for music so every melody I have in my head I easy pick out on the keys. Apart from that I have composed a number of songs. The problem is that as soon I try a real piano I feel like a complete beginner. Not only that the keys are so heavy but I have not exercised much on the scales, neither seriously exercised the finger control and independence. Yesterday I received a digital piano with 88 weighted keys and I have started to exercise the scales and finger control. Now I am going to learn playing piano for real and I am looking forward to get the help by your videos.
Everytime I watch a video of yours I learn something that I cannot believe was never explained, demonstrated, or taught to me in the many years of piano lessons I had as a child. I love how you teach concepts, skills and technique that actually make a difference and improve a players performance. Had my instructors introduced me to the concepts you teach I know I would be a better player today. It"s never too late to get better at something so ...Many thanks for your insights and knowledge transfer. I'm a huge fan of what you do.
Hi. I have been watching your videos. You are very helpful for someone in the 50's who is trying to learn the piano on his own. My interest level went up recently, ever since I discovered Lead sheet or Fake sheet. I could spent hours now on the keyboard, unlike few months ago I dreaded 20-30 mins routines doing Czerny, Hannon, and simple 2 hands playing. Also it was so hard to learn a piece in one or two settings, so you can go on for weeks just to perfect it and then only to forget about few months later. You rely purely on brain and hand memories. Fake music sheets have facilitated the process so much. Now, I'm not so worried about my left hand, and focused mostly on the right hand on the melodies. There is a sense of accomplishment and joy to be able to played a song in few minutes. My left-hand has been playing mostly block, and inverted chords and I feel I need more improvement on the left-hand. I have been searching everywhere, But no one is focusing on this subject. Perhaps a video series will be nice on how to play fake music sheet from beginning level to advanced level. (I could understand some music teachers may be against using lead sheet since it is seen as as a short cut or a cheat sheet). It may include different left hand pattern on same music, simple broken chords techniques ( no need to be doing fast woogie boogies, I like most beginners is not interested in fast playing, but like to sound like a pro than beginner). I truly believed it should be a series of videos rather than a 5 mins touch on the subject. The subject on arpeggio alone is so advanced that it will need much needed attention. Thanks
I already watched this video twice..... Awesome, simple and practical..... Basic notion that act as an essential foundation in music.... Bravo Pianote and team... Thank you very much 😃🙏
I wrote almost every word you had said down in a book so I could reference it against the examples shown. Thanks for an engaging video you had me hooked! Well done lady.
Oh my gosh thank you! You are such a good and enthusiastic teacher! I would have loved to have someone like you as a piano teacher when I was younger. I am going to try those chords!!
Thank you so much for sharing these videos, when lockdowns started I found I had more time at home, always wanted to learn piano, (took it a year when I was 6) you explain things well and are easy to follow. After becoming a fan here on RUclips I’m going to purchase your lessons, looking forward to making musical lemonade out lockdown lemons! 😁
Great Tip. It's weird you should post this now, when I'd just hit upon the idea myself about 3 weeks ago (after taking lessons for 3 years), I practise the chords for the 3 random scales I practise each day, and I think it's really helping. The chords are already falling nice and naturally under my fingers, the only thing I'm finding slow to acquire is the scale/chord degrees for each key. But that's just memory so I'll get it eventually. (I need to ask my tutor why he didn't have me do this already?)
What a lovely lesson, and a waaaaay more exciting way to not only learn the scales like you said, but reenforce good song writing options, and more importantly to me, institute a fair amount of ear/interval training as a whole... And the way you played that chord at 3:27 has me determined to learn how to get that little trill(?), trick!!! Thank you so much for all you do for the creative community.
Been playing piano for 20+ years. If there's anything I always recommend people who desperately want me to teach them: It's their dang chords and scales! Didn't know there was a single phrase for it, "Diatonic chords". This is much easier to say. Thnx Pianote! I've never been classically trained, don't know how to read sheet, but can play pretty much any song ppl throw at me .. which are usually simple pop songs that use these simple chords. But i can still get complex songs, they just take a little more time. The point is chords and scales are my bread and butter. Can't do literally anything without them.
Thanks Lisa for this , when I hear songs in the charts I like ,or any song ,I will do this ..many years ago I had piano lessons and to be honest it kind of became a chore and put me off any creativity as had to play sheet music ,it was ok if there was a tune I liked ..but i could not remember tune if you took sheet music away ,cut long story short ,wish I'd known this years ago ..love playing by ear now ,it put the fun ,freedom ,enjoyment and creativity back into piano ,thank you :)
Love this. You make music much less intimidating to learn. Thank you for this priceless gift. I honestly want to get your autograph. You’re a rockstar! I’m totally serious!

Every time I see a new video from Lisa, it makes my day a little happier. 🙂

Your easy going manner and happy personality is a joy to watch, and I am learning a lot. Thank you from a beginning student , a Grandmother. This is on my bucket list to learn to play piano.
Thank you for the tips that are 'beginner' enough for me. I was given a vintage piano by a local church. Now I am trying to learn to play it.
I am adding this to my practice. What amazed me about this was the fact that I can hear the next progression. I think that shows me that my musical ear is getting stronger. Thank you for this lesson
I love this lady. I've learned so much from her because she keeps it simple. Plus she's sweet and awsome.
Thanks for your help. I teach children ages 5-12 right now. I am borrowing your ideas for our lessons. I love all the warm up exercises - improvising ideas.

This video was extremely helpful! Could You Possibly do a video on diminished chords? They seem interesting.
We touch on diminished chords a bit in this lesson: ruclips.net/video/YW0FsV5CI_U/видео.html
MorTobXD sorry, Liszt XD
MorTobXD 11 and 13 are pretty much impossible for most people to play and Liszt could reach up to 13ths.
That was simple but really helpful to me as a guitarist who want to get better on keys. Thanks.
She teaches so amazingly. I’ve watched so many videos as I’m a self taught pianist and none of them are as clear and fun as she is. Keep it up girrrrrrrl! ❣️
How good of a teacher is she! She makes practicing scales fun and easy! Scales are the most boring thing for most students and you feel like practicing the scales after watching her video.

christiane giguere, she has four hundred thousand already; she deserves a million or more.
Brilliant Presentation! Easy to Follow! Certainly a BIG help to students! Definitely ONE to stay with and Learn! Thank YOU!!!
Beautiful lessons maam thankyou for that ❤❤❤❤❤🙏
Merci beaucoup for this Lisa. You really are the most fantastic positive teacher in the universe. I've seen many good teachers on YT, and I'm not putting them down at all. Everyone has something to say. But you have a rare gift.
You laid that out wonderfully--can't wait to apply it. I so hope that you and yours are safe and healthy through this current event.
As a guitarist learning piano, I think this is excellent advice!
Thanks a lot Lisa... Mastering diatonic chords is actually a crucial key to improving in the piano journey...
You are explaining in simple terms - and in a few minutes - a concept I have struggled to understand for a long time. Thank you, Lisa!
Tks so much! From Vietnam
I've been practicing with the help of your videos and I'm so much motivated. God bless you 🙏
Wow lady you make it so easy to understand.
You're so right! This, combined with the notion of cadences can free us to become independent and creative musicians!!!
You are one of the most engaging music teachers online. Your energy is great.
Wow...so excited keep learning
Thanks, your presentation made something that seemed complex so incredibly easy.
Thank you for explaining the keyboard and giving us some structure to learning the piano.
Beautifully expalined by a Beautiful Teacher
Great !!
Thank you Ms. Lisa for posting this !! Wonderful information !! Thanks again Teddy Korbos !!
Couldn't agree more!
As someone self-taught on the piano (but with some knowledge of music theory) that's the shortest way I found to play something rewarding right from the beginning.
I have just started. I don't play any songs yet however Im aware these basic practices are essential before I can progress. Thank you
Thank you, you are very bright and cheerful. First time I ever heard of diatonic. Trying to grasp. Maybe I have to go over this couple of times.
Damn it, you're so Happy teaching others. The Energie is woww
energy*
Thank you much... you inspiring me to play keyboard even when I am just beginning. Great teacher

Oh, and the chord progressions are helpful too. Gonna practice them. ;)
Very helpful. I can’t wait to get back to the piano.
Your enthusiasm is really endearing and kinda infectious!!
This channel is better than any private lesson I ever had before. Thanks for the great tips!
Wow, thanks Michelle!

You are a great teacher and i whant to thank you for all what you do! God bless you and your work!
Thanks for this. I often get frustrated because it's difficult to read sheet music. Chords help me a lot.
Thank you!

Thanks Lisa you continue to inspire love your work

Thank you again. I resumed into my piano playing and this very helpful, thank you
Very helpful, never ocurred to arrange in that way! A big thanks, and keep on teaching us.
Love your enthusiasm but I have no idea about scale D. Thank you!
Concluding music took away my heart. ❤️
You are amazing!!! thank you for showing us this amazing technique. I never knew a simple piece can sound this beautiful
3:51 "Find what sounds good to your ears" Great advice, love it 😀

I have a question, is it too late to start playing the piano at age 14 if I want to pursue it as a career?
Beautiful! Sooo beautiful! Thank you!
Glad to know I’m on the right path.
So helpful!!
Great explaination and demo, thanks!
Incredibly useful. Thank you!
she is an excellent teacher.. beatiful..
I just love your style of teaching, you've made me want tp play piano again
Thank you
Wow. That answers the burning question I had about triads. Love your enthusiasm as well.
Very helpful!
Thanks Lisa for this , when I hear songs in the charts I like ,or any song ,I will do this ..many years ago I had piano lessons and to be honest it kind of became a chore and put me off any creativity as had to play sheet music ,it was ok if there was a tune I liked ..but i could not remember tune if you took sheet music away ,cut long story short ,wish I'd known this years ago ..love playing by ear now ,it put the fun ,freedom ,enjoyment and creativity back into piano ,thank you :)
Thank you so much for the great tips and - most of all - for the cheerfulness you add to our practice
Since I've found your videos you have brought my piano game up to a level I thought I would never reach! Thanks for being awesome!!
Thx for this you are the best
Thanks for the tip. Really helpful. Not easy though. I guess i'll get used to with time ⌚
I never said it would be easy :) But the best things in life are always worth working for! Good luck!
good practicing advise
Love this. You make music much less intimidating to learn. Thank you for this priceless gift. I honestly want to get your autograph. You’re a rockstar! I’m totally serious!
Thanks, as always. 👍👍👍
