I am 12 year old and been playing for 1 and a half years ive been watching your videos for motivation and being self taught and pretty secent now at playing
Your tutorials are so beautifully explained that at my age of 51 I have inspired and started learning piano, man you are genius, wish I could play like you, Kudos...!
No! He did not! Do you know why he adds the root to the next octave? You do not know! I have to think really hard to get it. He is nuts, trying to play magic in front of students (to sell or simply bad personality?). Adding the root is to make the fingering easier/possible, and it does not affect the chords (since it is “just” reaping the root). You see, he did explain it. So condescending, disgusting - if you do a video like this, you are obliged to explain!
Merci, a very timely video. I decided to get serious with my piano agenda, and this week I planned out the next 12 days of practice. One key a day. I start out with modes, but do them in the order: Lydian, Ionian, Mixolidian, Dorian, Aeolian, (Harmonic and Melodic), Phrygian and Lochrian. Then I'm doing arpeggios since I've tended to ignore them. I'm practicing the Rule of the Octave which I do on the Tonic, the third and fifth in the key of the day, but I also do one in the Circle of Fifths. I do the circle of fifths progression in the key of the day. I finish with sightreading. You are the inspiration for me to buy a piano last year at 65 yoa, and I'm forever grateful to you, Jason. Again, merci.
We that are willing to learn are not Left alone through your lesson. If you can be helping beginners most of beginners will be interested in your channel. Thanks from Nigeria, I enjoy it.
Ah, I've been wanting to work on my arpeggios for a while now. Level 4 and 5 will help me out for sure. I'm excited to try the finger prep tip as well. Thank you!
So many years of paid for private piano lessons spent learning one piece at a time. No theory at all. Finally….your lessons are filling in those blanks. Thank you maestro.
Level 5 is so fun to play, but still challenging. Before this video came out, I was already practicing this movement by playing Moonlight sonata 3rd mvt's finale because of how gorgeous and dramatic it sounds
Wow, this will shut me up for a goodly while! Am still getting to grips with the finger independence exercise (tiny bit of improvement) & the 3 strikes per note exercise (no improvement yet)! This seems meaty. I love arpeggios (ever since The Aristocats) ❤
Your videos are so full of information I tend to watch them several times. I started playing your five note warmup from the beginning. I'm now playing it in thirds and sixths, like you did with the arpeggios. And I'm trying to really listen to which notes play together, since this is important for first species counterpoint.
Your explanations and pacing are really exceptional. Easy for me, a level 2 player, to follow. Very clear demonstrations. Most instructors go too fast. You are trying to develop us as competent players, with solid skills as a base. 😊
Thankfully subbed to your channel a good while ago, this was the video I was waiting. Could have been my bad googling for two octave arpeggios and fingering for it, as I couldn't really find anything even close to this clear. Or already forgot that I found something. Even I guess I knew how to transfer to second octave, I always doubted myself, but no more doubts. And this really is for right hand, left hand for some reason especially when coming from low to high notes has been always clear. Or I just learnt them by accident when banging my head against the wall when learning 'To Zanarkand' which is heavy on left hand add9 chord arpeggios. Thanks Jazer
Hi hello i am very proud of you because i see thay you are making new videos regulary and that is what i like because i am hungry for new stuff keep doing the good job and GodBless you and your family forever
Great video. Learning is high on the level. Definitely gives me new approaches to improving my fingering. Sorry, I’m a beginner. 60 years I’ve tortured trying to play, never understanding “circle of 5s” open my eyes, now i have so many scales.. doing scales never left Cmaj. Taking it to the next level, the fingering changes. Omg. Doing multiple octaves…absolutely, but it all comes to your hands on the piano linking to something between the ears. I’ve seen several of your videos, and felt inspired to hit the piano, but now i have something new to try. The next step is to watch your video again to get the fingering, documented… so i can refer while at the piano. Ie quick study guide lol. Through repetition I’ll get it. Thanks. do more vids lol.
Thanks a lot. I follow most of your suggestions, as I am a beginner. I agree, please tell us how to overcome body tension. Also how to play quick consecutive notes.
I just found your channel and am really amazed at your content and skill level. Is the content on your RUclips channel what you use in your curriculum teaching piano in personal lessons? Thank you for all your help and encouragement.
For extra challenge, I like lifting my fingers as little as possible. It's to help sustain notes without the pedal. And actually, you can hear an obvious difference with it on low-polyphony keyboards. The notes on my PSR-90 cut out very quick if the pedal is doing the heavy lifting.
Hi jazer sir , you are an awesome teacher . I need an advice , I had an online class since 1 year but I left that class since 5 to 6 months bcoz the way of teaching was way too slow . As I have left that class my practise had been reduced to near 0 and I am confused where to start as I am not getting time sometimes along with that I have to do my academics (in school RN ) so pls tell me how should I restart my practise.pls reply
There's a lot of wrist rotation going at slow speeds when you first demo level 2, but that's probably necessary for the demo, eh? The question is how do you deal with the problem of mixing lego and non-legato notes? That is, you can still be playing D when you start to play F#. That's legato. The same thing occurs going from F# to A. But when you go from A to D above, you have to move your hand, which means you release the A relatively early compared to the earlier notes. That's non-legato. Any thoughts? (BTW, this comment was really hard to type after studying your video. I think my mind had switched my hands over to "piano playing mode". Going back to "typing mode" was weird.)
I think these coordination exercises should be a required course in elementary schools every where, just for the brain work at an early age. I’m right handed, after doing these exercises I realize my left arm and hand has pretty much been a useless appendage my whole life. The worst part about it is people offered to teach me these things. They should have forced me to do it.
Actually this indicates a big big problem of this video- why in the world a person so condescending that he talk about arpeggios yet not saying the relationship between arpeggios and chords?! I am so so so not trusting this guy anymore. He is nuts.😢😂😂. Of course, it is a good idea to use chords’ arpeggios as sources to practice.
Also, he did not explain why when we play it “back”, starting from chord I, it is especially musical - it is because chord progression cadence! He could say something about it. Yet, again, he did not say anything. 😢. That is the key for this video: you pick some chords, make them musical, and practice often. Yet, he just do not want to let you know the secret!😅
I like the idea. But I do not like you do not explain it clearly. You show off. You treat it like a magic. I have to really watch and think many times to demystify the whole thing! It is basically one thing: to do arpeggios, you have to play it back. To do it musically, must add the root to the last. That is it. Everything else is just disgustingly showing off to your students- it is disgusting, because it is not fair. I will watch your stuff once for a while, but I know, you are not a nice person. You play people. 😢

Yay, I requested arpeggios in his last video and he really read my comment. Thank you so much, I've been waiting for this.
Yes, this was in response to your request. (And others too in the past videos). 🤓
Thank you very much, I am self-taugh and this video is incredibly helpful! You are the best teacher here on youtube!
I am learning on my own and wasn't really sure how to practice arpeggios. This really helped. Thanks.
That was great and helpful to teach and illustrate about prepare and then only when you prepare play the notes
Really good explanation on how to conceptualize a chord. Thanks.
Your tutorials are so beautifully explained that at my age of 51 I have inspired and started learning piano, man you are genius, wish I could play like you, Kudos...!
I will never get enough of this so informative lesson. That was very well thought of. Thank you so much.
Your the reason why I started playing the piano. Great Content! ❤❤❤
You are super good and clear. You are so candid on the four octave explanation."where was I" is so relatable. I really enjoy your lessons
No! He did not! Do you know why he adds the root to the next octave? You do not know! I have to think really hard to get it.

I love the Soundbrenner watch!

Thank you very much
Love your videos
Very helpful ❤
Great upload and much appreciated mate!
Love your lessons 🎹🎼🎹
Great explanation thank you.
Thanks for your videos..
Please, make a video on harmony notes exercise..
I cannot believe I made it this far without recognizing how fundamental these are to improvising and understanding melodies.
Thank you very much I love your videos.
Can you please go over what can reduce the tension.
My hands hurt after a few rounds 😢
Thanks for the "early preparation" tip ! 😀👍
Such a great video, I am one of your boot campers, and I am going to be doing this daily
This is fantastic thank you very much😊😊😊😊
Your videos are the best. Can I ask you to show the notes how you play the impromptu. The four cords arpeggio beautiful melody.
…wow…that was inspirational…thanks!
Thanks!

Very good exercise for beginners like me! Hopefully i will achieve at least couple of levels!
Very good 👍 👏 👌
this motivates me to sit at the keyboard
Thanks! This is so helpful! But now I need tutorial to keep in tempo:)
I love your videos 😂
super simple and clear
i'm having trouble with tucking the thumb, whenever I move to the next octave without pedal, it just feels abrupt

Hallo I have a question can you please make a totarial of ezio’s family ?
I have bought a piano, where do I start?
Fresh start... But doing exercises both hand......
I can play some of chord progression. How can i improve
Nice video. Thanks, Jazer 🙂
What are the best songs /classical songsto practice arpeggios?
There's a lot of wrist rotation going at slow speeds when you first demo level 2, but that's probably necessary for the demo, eh?
The question is how do you deal with the problem of mixing lego and non-legato notes? That is, you can still be playing D when you start to play F#. That's legato.

What's the song at the end?
A personal composition of mine.
@@jazerleepianodo you have a video or a link where I can listen to the whole piece?

That last one is tricky
❤
The fact that I was just struggling with arpeggios in my piece for my grade 6 exam...
So are arpeggios and chords the same thing?
A chord is where you play all the notes at the same time. For an arpeggio, you break up the chord and play the notes separately.
@@hacerclic1020 thank you

Easy please
I never now how to choose my fingering when trying a new piece and waste so much time figuring it out. Sorry a bit off topic.
Would you please show little bit slowly?...ie notes and fingering...
6:40 Pinky or thumb :)
I think i need to learn how to spell arpegergio first
🤣
Heh.
Also, he did not explain why when we play it “back”, starting from chord I, it is especially musical - it is because chord progression cadence! He could say something about it.

Because the idea of the video is not that one dude. If he would the video would last forever, besides the point of the video is practicing
It's hard to follow your lessons because your keys don't highlight what you are playing
Not just that. It is that he do not bother to show it clearly often. Even in the beginning, he does it once, kind of explained, but did it fast. Nuts.
Please stop
Stop
