You are really a good teacher. For the very first time ever since I tried to learn play piano I understand what chords are and where to find them. Thanks so much.
-
I have never seen chords explained like this. What once seemed daunting now is so much clearer, simpler and ready to be attained! Thank you for another de-mystification tutorial!
-
This has to be THE Most useful lesson I ever had. Starting tomorrow, I wonāt stop until I learn all major cords. Thank you so very much
-
First time in my life i understood the chord structure with 4 different types, thank you so much. I am a physician from the southern most part of India desperately want to play good gospel music.
-
I had a great piano teacher in high school that taught this method. He was a jazz piano player and taught me how to play difficult chords pretty quickly with the half-step patterns. Genius!
-
With this awesome tutorial you just removed the hesitation and intimidation of learning the major and minor chords outside the key of C. Thank you : )
-
Root + 4 + 3 semi tones makes sense for other instruments, too!
-
That's good and play around the circle of fifths and improvise in different rhythms. Sing them up and down as well. Sing the root note to the 3rd and 5th and back. Use letters, numbers or solfegge.
-
I have struggled with this and youāve just made it so much easier than Iāve ever heard from several different online teachers. As a senior, things donāt come as easy as they do for younger people so Iām thrilled I found this video. Thank you so much!!
-
Holy cow this was amazingš¤Æ. I have watched a few really good tutorials on this same topic, but yours for some reason is so much more clear, straightforward, and calming. I now really feel like I will be able to actually remember a solid formula on this topic. ā¤š Thanks a ton.
-
Excellent! I have used these piano key patterns in my lessons for years. I teach woodwinds, but use the piano as a visual aid. I would also point out that in order to keep the scale tones alphabetical, the Db minor chord uses Fb, not an E. Nice presentation!
-
