HOW TO PLAY GOSPEL RUNS & LICKS! | Beginner Piano Lesson

In today's lesson, we are looking at GOSPEL BLUES PIANO RUNS & LICKS.
If you are a beginner to intermediate musician looking to get into riffs, runs, and improvisation this is the place to start. I'm going to show you how you can use the pentatonic scale in MANY different ways to play licks over ANY song or chord progression.
We are also going to take a look at the BLUES SCALE and how you can use this scale to take your playing to the next level.
Learning and practicing these 2 simple scales will take you very far!
Hope you Enjoy!

Something that helped me: You need to learn a few scale/repeating patterns that can go up and down the keyboard and chords to go with it, yes, scale theory, yes. But MOST important, you need to put it the TIME to get your fingers moving that fast and accurately. Just knowing theory won't help. But the good news is anybody can build speed and technique. Put hours not minutes into it, and one day you'll stun yourself by your own crazy fast runs lol.

[@anthonygarces6999]

Thank you: Thank you

[@Superior1995Rex]

"Beginner Piano Lesson" is a weird flex... your hands are truly gifted!

[@alansloane9500]

Thank you for unlocking this for me you have demystiied a thing that has eluded me for years, a thousand thanks!!!

[@ArneWidding]

Very important: If the song is in a minor key, you can just play the pentatonic scale in that key. But if it is in a major key, you need to move it to the 6th note of the scale and play from there. Look at the piano. The A minor scale has the same notes as C major. That's why you play the A minor pentatonic over the C major chord progression since it is the MINOR pentatonic scale. As you can see on the piano the A is the 6th note of the C major scale. It is the tonic parallel and that's why it works like that. He showed it in the video, but I feel he didn't explain why.
Very simply explained: Move down three frets and start from there if the key is major.

[@GoodnightIrieMon]

He geared the lesson toward beginners. It would defeat the purpose if he went into explaining relative minors.

[@louislawson5493]

thank you ! that's what I was looking for

[@raphaelkasongo8377]

Ye theyre relative scales

[@florencefarmer6371]

Good observation. Thanks.

[@JohanJogyAntony-]

Thank you so much for this video. I've been looking for beginner tutorials for gospel music, and this has just saved me so much time. God bless ❤

[@Loudakii]

I watched this 2 years back when l was a beginner and wanted to improve my playing now l can see my progress...thanx alot for these lessons🥰

[@rebeccahicks5943]

No one has ever explained it this easily! Thanks!!!🙌🏼

[@matthiasscheffler548]

Among all the great players and teachers, I trust you more than anybody else because your skills were earned the hardest way: constant trial and error, resulting in mastership, revealed

[@dwash7007]

Words can’t describe how major this was for me! God bless!

[@AeroStuffFPV]

Same! Every beginner will go vertical because of this tutorials video!

[@ArneWidding]

you mean minor...

[@raidone7413]

You should've never used that word

[@stephonraimey8631]

Your fingers stretching from G D B flat is insane!

[@purrplemane5954]

It is my opinion that a good part of the reason why it seems so hard to learn to play the piano and maybe music in general is because of how it has been taught over the years. This was an awesome easy to understand tutorial just like the one he did on the 2-5-1 progression. Bless you my brother

[@jessicab5777]

As a classically trained pianist. You are WONDERFUL at explaining it to me. I almost have it. Not fully. But you broke it down so well. Subscribed

[@tantif1]
