I'm lucky enough to have this maestro as my teacher. He's currently taking me through a Chopin waltz, but this is very much his teaching style. Knows exactly how to bring out your best without overwhelming.
Over the Rainbow is a risky tune to reharmonize - not least of which is because it's become something of a sacred song for so many of us. And I wasn't sure where you were going with it, but was very pleased with the final result. Really nice colors. One thing though: your pencil markings are almost invisible on the video.
Și calm and warm ….love your teaching style and how you explain ❤❤❤thank you 🫶have a wonderful day! Can’t wait for more song like this with new chords 🎹🦋
One of my favorite melodies of all time and perhaps the best piano and theory lesson that I have ever had the opportunity to experience. Thank you so much!!
As far as the ii - V - I (or ii V I?) that approaches the Em at 8:20, is a half diminished chord used for the ii since the chord you are approaching is a minor chord? It's hard to see or hear and it's not stated explicitly edit: I think it must be and that open 1 7 5 3 voicing sounds heavenly! I will leave the question in case others got confused by this. Thank you for the video, I have watched and shared it many times!
Nice explanation of chords that I play instinctively but have never thought of analysing in that amount of depth! SOTR must be a candidate for best song ever written…?
Hello Alberto, the "II-V-I"-scene was too fast for me, because also I could no read your your unreadable pencil writing on your Leadsheet. Also the video-scene was very fast! What you can recommend?

Alberto is a one of a kind Chris. You're in very good hands!
Your lessons are like master classes of music, piano. Your teaching style is straightforward. Fantastic!

It's a song that has a reverence to many people. Alberto's rework of it is adventurous enough but still sensitive to the tune.
That was quite painless. Thank you
You are a wonderful teacher by keeping things simple. Made total sense. I understand. Thank You!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so eye opening; thank you for breaking it down in to simple bites!!!!!

Glad you enjoyed it!
Can't reach the 10th interval with small hands...... Thanks for the great lesson !
You can try 9ths as well - but what pianists with smaller hands do is arpeggiate the 10ths. Works very well.
Please make more tutorial about jazz Bebop Piano... Thanks
I Mr Sylvester Michael Sylvester thanks for the first lesson greatful
Merci ! I am a bit confused for the first chord; if it’s a ii it should be a F#m, right ?
Do it with Rootless Voicings?
I'm from Brazil.

Play again slower and write it for yourself. Just take notes as you absorb what's going on.
Thanks a lot 😂😂😂
Welcome 😊
