Sir this is my first time ever watching an instructional music video that I'm actually impressed with. You have the "heart of a teacher". Thanks for sharing your gift
I've been plying for twenty five years now. This is absolutely the best video by far to understand. I'm a little autistic and so I can't learn from just anyone. This guy here taught me in an hour what it took me years to understand. God bless you sir, may he reward you richly. You're the GOAT! (Greatest of all time) Absolutely
IV BENN PLAYING WITHOUT ANY DEVELOPMENT FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS... THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO THAT ACTUALLY SPEAKS TO ME. INFACT I HAVE EVEN DECIDED TO TEACH MY KIDS SOLELY ON THIS VIDEO... BIG UPS, MAY GOD BLESS YOU
I started playing around 2004. I've been an OTR truck driver in the midst of this ........AND, I've been writing music in the middle of this as well. I've been blessed to have perfect pitch (as told by my musician friends) yet my life is so busy that I don't have time to really focus in on learning the theory side of things. I got a recommendation for this video and am glad I did. Thank you for sharing your gift brother
Loved your basic concepts and encouragements. Your simple explanations and how u moved at a slower pace than others helped me understand and put together what I have been learning on my own.
I've been playing in the key of C# for a very long time, only started learning to play other keys by going back to C and then going up chromatically.. I'm halfway through. This video is going to make the process a whole lot quicker. Thank you
Thank you so much. I always feel nervous because I play in one key. I have taken note of the concepts I must know and gradually build up. I will see you on the pro side. Thanks for helping me.
Ive been playing for about a year and a half now, and out of the hundreds of videos ive watched this is one of the most helpful. Keep up the good work👍
God bless you sir, im learning to play the piano over a year ago on and off, but now im very much taking it serious now. Thankyou for explaining so clearly in its simplest form.
Your story telling is really engaging. It kept me engaged enough to watch the entire video and I'm not a beginner pianist, I've been playing for years.
Thanks for sharing such a refined 101! It's always stressful not being able to play your best in Worship, especially with so many professional musicians in the band. This will really help me learn the relative keys, and slowly build my way up the 12 keys! Blessings brother :)
I really don’t comment much, however, I had to give you props on your wonderful teaching style. Sooooo helpful, thank you. I already feel more confident. Subscribed and liked ❤
Thank you for the lessons very easy to understand. Have been looking for a Christian trainer and now am happy got you after a thorough search. Thank you for the good work here.
Thank you so much for taking your time to educate. I’ve been playing for years but I realized I was limited. I want to go higher for Christ so I’m currently enrolled in school to learn the fundamentals and this video helped/encouraged me. Trust the process!!🙌🏾💪🏾
Very well explained! I think it's very important to play each song in its key, so that you learn a lot more. I love songs with several changes of key, they're challenges. For me, playing along with the music I love has been what's helped me the most. At first, I could only improvise in each key with one finger, later, triads, later basses, later full chords. It's wonderful to play by ear. I don't even know the names of the chords, only shapes, but I can play almost anything while listening to it. If I don't figure which chord is, I play the arpeggio which sounds in my mind. Everything is possible in music, the only thing needed is to have fun with it. Sorry for the speach!
Hello Corey, What a wonderful presentation you made here on this video. I would love to learn more. Played by ear, not knowing chords or anything like that and would love to. Yours is the first video that really shows you how to do it without asking for any money. I want to learn more.
God bless you sir. Thanks for reminding me to “trust the process” I’ve tried countless number of times to learn the other keys, now I’m inspired to be patient, to keep practicing and not give up.
Corey, I was wondering if you could speak to the art of being able to play any or all your chords in the "sweet spot" middle of the keyboard, basically through constantly inverting to stay in the center. Thanks for all your Excellent teaching!
You have the gift of teaching, you teach really good and i am really blessed. Thank you and may God richly bless you abundantly. Keep up the good works
Hey. I appreciate this a great deal. I just surpassed 60 songs and I am proud of what I have accomplished in a year of production. That being said, it was all a point click adventure in a DAW. Which is fine, but I want to keep developing myself as a musician/producer and get away from automation. I want to prove myself. Videos like this help. Take care!
C Money!!!! Man!! I have only started to play for a little less than a year. I come from an ole DJ of house music background, and decided to get back into music, but I wanted to make music not just play music. I hear the music and can almost do it live...almost. Like you said I hear but I'm not seeing yet. Watching you in this vid is like BOOM!!! I see and hear a wee bit better, THANKS THANKS THANKS
Wow! That is incredible! I’m so glad you found this video so helpful! I’m excited for your musical journey. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
LOL...thank you! In regards to the left hand, I have two videos called 12 Left-Hand Voicings (part 1) and (part 2) that will walk you through exactly what to do!
Wow you just solved my life long problem, thank you so much for this, please do you have a tutorial on how to form the other chords and when to use them in music thank you
Thanks alot sir.i am very much impressed with the way you teach.pls how can i learn each key finger placing for all the keys from flat to sharp chords and their progression thanks
Thank you very much. this is very helpful. i play on all 12 keys now after years of just playing on 1 key. i noticed it boosted my confidence. what is the perfect way to master technique and music ear please?
Those are two big questions that cannot be fully answered in a sentence or two. I was actually going to make a couple of videos on it. I do have a video on my channel titled “How I Improved My Technique” that would be great to watch. But to give you a start, work on scales, arpeggios, chords, broken chords, octave scales, and double thirds. For ear work on hearing intervals, chords, and then chord progressions…. Hope that helps!
Thank you for sharing!! FBH for life!! It was good to see the saints!! Sister Fuller, Bishop Davis, Sister Frazier!! Sign: Pastor Carolyn Owens’ daughter! ❤
Thank you Sir Corey I've experienced the same before when I first started playing in our church I'm more on the CCM style.. it's my desire to learn more especially with exrensions, complex chords and gospel music.. learning a lot from your videos. thank you!!
I loved the tutorial. I had one question… at 9:37 mins you said that we should start expanding the diatonic chords to add more color. How would I do that? Is there a way that you can do a video on how to expand?
Also, I just tried to book a free session with you to get info about where I’m at and where I need to go but the link is no good. Is there anyway I could speak with you ASAP?
Thank you so much! We’ve just updated our website and many of our links have changed. Please send me an email at ctaylor@skilledmusician.com and I will send it to you!
My utmost goal is to play in all key. It has really been so challenging due to the fact that, I have been on a particular key for long.. but I'm keep the ball rolling until I'm able to play fluently in all the 12keys
I USE TO SING AT BENNY HINN CRUSADES. I MET MS. CHERYL AND SHE ACTUALLY PRAYED OVER MY HANDS. I AM COMING BACK FROM SOME MINOR MINI STROKES. I ALWAYS WONDERED HOW THE SOUND THAT IS UNIQUE IS ACQUIRED. SO THANKS AGAIN FOR SHARING. SAY I HAVE A SONG(SHEET MUSIC) ABOUT DR. KING I WOULD LIKE TO GIFT YOU WITH FOR HIS B'DAY AND BLACK HISTORY MONTH.IF THAT IS OK WITH YOU...JHAPPY THANKSGIVING & SHALOM! @@SkilledMusician
Nice video. This is my first time here and i love this video. But i want to ask this please, what key is advisable to be pkahing from. Is it C or F. I've playing on F for awhile but at beginner level. I wish to develop my self so I'm kind of confused which key should i ready concentrate on. Can you out me through please because I could see that you play on C
You should concentrate on learning the foundation principles in every key. Learn the major scales and diatonic chords in every key. Then every concept you learn, try applying it to every key!
May the unemployed find work, may the sick be healed, and may whoever is reading this be blessed in the name of JESUS. 😘🙏🥀
Amen
Jesus is dead, if he ever existed. Prayers are futile. All we have is each other.
Amen
