This is priceless. Once I was able to see and understand the simple beauty and elegance with in it, I realized it was a powerful method I could use to learn to master the complexities of the piano. I will forever be grateful to you!
cant believe this has under 200 views, this is a great video ngl. these big RUclipsrs only give small snippets of info and oversimplify to the point its ungraspable
@@adventurewithdanny Yes! It's straightforward to make chord progressions and melodies that come out well. But sometimes, it can come off as generic or good but not exceptional and outstanding. How do we take our music from good and pleasant to amazing, extraordinary, and mind-blowing? Thanks so much for replying!
great stuff. would love to see more videos and especially stuff we can practice along to (longer form would be amazing, but maybe that's alot to ask!). Got my sub
I don't quite get how I can learn all these concepts for ALL the keys. I understand learning arpeggios, chord progressions, out of chord keys, major, minor etc for one key. But I assume learning all this for all 12 notes will take years. How do I go about that? I suppose the answer is to learn a simple scale first, stick to that one for a couple months? I feel learning multiple scales at once will be confusing.
I play bass mainly not piano so I can’t offer advice specific to piano. Tl:dr - learn and memorize the circle of fifths, there are great videos out there explaining what it can be used for and how it functions. The simple answer is repetition. Do something every day and it’ll come to you eventually, but you have to actually work on it every day or as many days as you’re able. You also need to know WHAT you’re even trying to work on before sitting down at the keyboard, that way you don’t just go to your keyboard and sit there trying to figure out what to do. The slightly longer answer is learn the circle of fifths. Music is a series of systems and patterns that work together. You just need to understand how all of these systems function. With learning all 12 keys, it’s not that you’ve completely mastered every single key and memorized everything you can play within every single one. It’s more about knowing a specific pattern or “theory” that just works. The pattern that showcases all 12 keys better than anything else is the cycle of fifths, Find whichever method you can to memorize it. This can literally just be starting from a root and going a fifth from it 12 times to give you the full circle. Whatever helps you to write it out, just Be able to draw it out by hand completely; Major keys and minor keys. And if you understand the circle of fifths visually and are able to apply that to your instrument you automatically understand the relationships of fifths and fourths, how to find any key signature, functional Harmony, intervals, transposition, and chord structure. Just learn it, sooner rather than later. I wish I did sooner. And if this isn’t much help, I hope I didn’t waste your time
memorize the key signatures, and play your scales of every key regularly. focus on one key at a time. dedicate a whole month to just practicing one key signature and in about a year you will become so proficient in all the keys you will be a wizard
You got great replies from other people, and I will essentially echo that if you focus on 1 key at a time you will start to see a domino effect. Learn your C scale, learn it in 3rds, 4ths, triads, etc. Then do your G scale. If you did the work correctly on C, getting it in G will be a lot easier!
Focusing on the idea of blowing people's mind with your piano skills sounds like an ego problem xd Hardly anyone will ever really care no matter how good you are. The only feasible way to become really good without potentially traumatising yourself is to be in love with the music and the instrument.
Hey bro I hear you - I do think you have to come from just wanting to play well and loving the music, but if you are able to develop these 4 skills you will start to consistently blow people's minds, which is REALLY FUN
You seem quite talented, how long have you played? Also i love the videos of great keys players like yourself hearing a popular song they’ve never heard then playing and reciting it by ear instantly. You should do a break down like that and walk us through each step you take in your mind to get to where you play the song fully, would be good content at least
If you're talking about Marcus Veltri, Frank Tedesco or TheDoo, who play for people on Omegle, they have perfect pitch, so they have a much easier and fast approach to learning and applying this stuff. For us mere mortals it's a whole different beast.

Thanks for the kind words - I'm so glad the video could help!

Thank you! Happy to share my wisdom on piano playing. Is there anything you would want a video on specifically that you think would help you?

Great feedback! I can def make some practice along stuff.
I'm on tour with my band until Jan 2 and then I've got 3 weeks to make a ton of vids :)
man I love this video, thanks to youtube for putting this on my homepage, and thanks to you ofc danny!
Thank you buddy! Any topics you want me to make a video about?
Big thanks for this! Very helpful advice!
Happy practicing!

1) I see that you are a wizard! 2) Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching! Is there anything you want me to make a video about?
