These lessons are amazing, I don't know anyone else on youtube who goes into such chordal detail. This is where musicianship truly begins.
Thanks so much Ritchie!
Adam, as a guitarist and as a teacher of guitar and ukelele, I have found that slowing everything right down and counting helps enormously to get the notes " into the fingers. "
I have a great desire to learn the piano, however, there are not many piano teachers who have the patience to show " exactly " what they are doing, to break it down note by note.... and deliberately slow down and explain everything and take nothing for granted.
Too many piano teachers on youtube teach " ok. Here is the 1 6 4 5 progression.... and expect us mere mortals to somehow automatically play the fiddly bits without a breakdown.... slowly!.... of what the teacher is doing.
And I mean a thorough explanation. I know you have said you are going to do this in your videos and for the first time in a long time I am hopeful that a piano teacher on youtube will actually do this.
Once it is in the fingers.... it is just a matter of speeding up with a metronome....
Please Adam.... be unique in this, slow down the phrase, let us get it in our fingers.... and watch your viewership go up to an incredible number!
Success breeds success... and when a pupil " gets it "..... that smile you see makes teaching so much more worthwhile!
Just a suggestion from my own experience.... and selfishly I know that it would help me personally to grow in learning the piano.
You play pushes in the video. If the push comes on the " & " or the " & a " of beats 2 or 4 ......I find it i slow that right down and explain what I'm doing.... you only need to do this once or twice and the pupils gets it.
I need that to learn piano.... and rhythm is SO important to getting chords to sound " musical " .... I hope, I have so much hope that you will do this because you've said you're going to take a deep dive into doing this.
Please help a guitarist who wants to become a far better piano player than he is!
Take care Adam.... and more strength to your arm! Go for it buddy!
Thanks William! Will definitely keep all that in mind. Thanks for the support with the channel.
Thanks alot man...Your Free Lessons helps me alot...
My pleasure!
Thank you for another great video! So glad I found you or rather..the RUclips algorithm found me because I have been searching for someone like you for years! 🎉
Welcome aboard!
Great teaching lesson on simple concepts which have wide application 👍🏽
Just recently I bought a yamaha keyboard for my 3 childrens. The problems is I found no tutor for my children in my rural locality. So I decided to watch some youtube channel to learn to use the key board accidentally I stumble into your tutorial . I really appreciate what you doing without any hesitation to give or teach all of your knowledge and skills for free even provided free pdf lesson to others. So thankyou and Keep it up and lastly but not least God bless you
I have watched approximately eleventy kajillion videos on a brazillion sites, and I haven't seen anyone take the approach you do, which is keep it simple, use triads, and yet make sophisticated-sounding music. I'm learning to play jazz, and although these techniques don't fit directly into that genre, 1) they're fun to play and 2) they're great foundational skills. Man, do you ever show up my weakness at embellishing triads and show me what I need to work on!
Hi Dan! Ah I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Triads are everything. They form the foundations of so much music and my personal opinion is people often move onto much more complex harmony before they've really got triads under their belt. There are going to be lots more videos focusing on this over the next few months - I hope you find them useful!
Your lessons are chock full of info and valuable from start to finish. Thanks !
Thanks Jeff!
Another great lesson Adam 😊 , it's those little notes in between the chord progressions that seem to make it more melodious for me but unfortunately I really struggle with 😣especially finger positioning !!
Thanks Patricia! Will keep that in mind! Glad you're enjoying the content!
I think of the "pedal" as more like a drone on my left hand, and it is very effective in playing backup piano for fiddle tunes . Droning on the fifth/dominant tone really does add tension and excitement that can drive the kind of folk dance music I play. But you don't want to overdo it.
Totally!
Thanks for breaking down the rhythms in right hand!
Glad it was helpful!
Another brilliant lesson!
Thanks Liam!
This is top notch stuff!
Thanks
Thanks David! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I see you being a successful RUclipsr one day,ur skill is too much❤️
Wow, Ithat is what I always want to learn in right hand pattern. Please do more videos and slowly . ☺️
Sure 😊
Great video again Adam !!! I am really impressed by the way you use rhythms and syncopation on your playing. Maybe you should make some videos to teach us, :)
Great suggestion!
Totally agree
This was a really good tutorial! Really good concepts I want to get under my belt.
Maaan, all your stuff is so good!
Thank you very much, Adam. That was an excellent lessons. Always a pleasure watching you teach. 💙
Wow❤❤
Another fantastic video, thanks a lot! Really interested in these videos that show how someone in a band/jam session/studio setting would actually play. I know many RUclipsrs want to cater to as wide an audience as possible but it is nice to get away from the videos that keep going over how to build a chord/scale, and look more at intermediate stuff. :)
Oh and the PDF is very much appreciated!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@scoach Meant to say...there's a thing - you probably know this - if you're playing the root in the left hand, play the 2(9) instead of the root in the right, so in C: D-E-G.
hi Adam, thanks for this interesting video so detailed explained!
One request though:
Ilove all the fast and interesting fillers from one chord to another, small licks or however this is named.
Is there a chance to get a tutorial for that or could you point where and how to learn that?
Thanks so far!
Great idea! Thanks for all the support!!
Could you do this in c major please ?
This would be easier to understand for beginners
Good idea!
Great stuff as usual! )
Thank you! Cheers!
❤❤❤❤❤😊
Glad you found it useful!!
What keyboard are you using. My brother is a classical pianist and needs 88 key piano.
This is a Nord Electro!
Where is all this information in one book
You can download a Free PDF lesson book which has all these exercises written out. The link is in the video description. Enjoy!
Adam thank you. Another great video! The PDF lesson book is appreciated. What I have issues with and would like you to cover in a video if you can is twofold! Firstly how do you do the fills and break the chords up. You don't just simply arpeggiate them. I would love this skill but I really can't do it.
I think I am telling myself that I can't and triggering a self-fulfilling prophecy but I just can't get passed that. It would be very much appreciated if you could do something on fills when breaking up chord progressions or rather bringing them to life! Secondly, do you just change key from major to minor or do you use things like 2,5,1's or dominant chords to change. It's so quick you play, I really can't keep up with the changes.
Can't wait for the next video and how you're going to develop your channel and further planned evolutions etc!
Hi Scarlette! Glad you're enjoying the videos. I'm going to be doing more videos and breaking things down. Will try to include some of those things you mention! Thanks for all the support!
