    Your videos are so good. I'm a guitarist of 20+ years and have been picking up the piano recently. I feel like your videos by far do the best at helping me think more like a pianist (and less like a guitarist playing piano). Thank you so much. Your vids are a crucial part of my learning.

    Merci beaucoup for this. I subbed, and I will practice this diligently.
    BTW I will have a video about exercises for the pianist. That is to say, what the pianist should be doing for his instrument, especially the low back, shoulders and hands. Exercises and self-treatments to take care of those aches and pains, and especially for getting strength in that pesky 5 finger.
    Stay tuned.

    Great lesson. I often. Do this technique for Stevie Wonder, Elton John, and Alicia Keys songs. I would perform the bossa nova bounce movement, but all on feeling the tempo. Now giving me this formula of adding the left hand hit between the right hand split chord gives me a more consistent approach. Thanks for the lesson.

    Man this is such a cool Lesson. I’m just starting to learn piano after 30 years of playing guitar and I thought the piano fingerings would be easy but it’s really tiring to get my hands in these positions. The rhythm I get, I just can’t get my fingers to follow :). But I know just like guitar, after enough practice at all just click on become second nature

    Very difficult for me to understand your timing explanation. To me it is either 16ths or triplets. You say it is triplets but write it as 16ths. I think it would be very helpful if you had had the complete phrase written out on the music lines. You make it very confusing.

    • @Charles.Wright
      @Charles.Wright 4 года назад

      He's confused. Those aren't triplets, at least not in Over the Rainbow. He says "e & a", which is just three 16th notes.

    @watsondavis5696 Год назад

    You keep calling those triplets, but although there are three of them, they're not triplets. A triplet is when you play three notes where you would normally play 2. Eighth note triplets are 3 notes where you would normally have two eighth notes, and sixteenth note triplets are where you would normally have 2 sixteenth notes. You're just playing sixteenth notes there. I mean, I appreciate the lesson (I'm a guitar player learning piano) but that detail could really end up confusing people long-term.

  • @mypronounismaster4450
    @mypronounismaster4450 3 года назад +1

    Is that a triplet? If your playing 16th notes and hitting on the beat, then nothing is in thirds.
    A triplet is playing off beat by turning an 8th, quarter, half, whole, etc. into three notes right?
    1 2 3 4
    You're doing ----- one two ah three ee four
    A triplet would be ---- one two trip a let four
    In the last one, the 'trip a let' gives three notes to the single third beat quarter note.
    So why are you calling this a triplet?
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    In 4/4 playing a triplet on each quarter note would be:::
    1 trip let 2 trip let 3 trip let 4 trip let
    1 ee ah 2 ee ah 3 ee ah 4 ee ah
    is different.
