Josh stated very clearly that the 5th finger is used on all Cs and Fs. Fingers 3 and 4 are used on all other keys that are in between those Cs and Fs. This is a wonderful and helpful exercise. Thank you so very much for sharing this. It is so very helpful and you have made it very, very clear what finger should be used on each key. I am so grateful for all of your videos. Keep in mind, EVERYONE, that you play every note, chromatically. So, if you are using 5 on Cs and Fs, the other keys are all played with fingers 3 and 4 in a logical way. To spell out 1 OCTAVE OF FINGERING ASCENDING from middle-C: C-5, C#-3, D-4, D#-3, E-4, F-5, F#-3, G-4,G#-3, A-4, A#-3, B-4, C-5 This is the fingering you should be using in your right hand for multiple octaves, slowly increasing speed, but starting very slowly.
Thank you for this patient clarification!
Bruce J thx man

@@elantris-2002 the same way, its harder but possible
Excellent Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I would love your thoughts. Have you researched - Riddleagan Smart Hands Remedy (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a great one off product for learning piano fast without the headache. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my cooworker at very last got amazing success with it.
Paul Barton is an exceptional multi-talented artist. What a man!
Wut
Josh, not only are you a wonderful pianist and teacher, you are an even finer human being.
Thank you for sharing all your insights and expertise with us ... all at your own time and expense.
May your tribe increase! Bless you.
Excellent Josh, this was exactly what I needed! Also very glad to see Paul Barton getting some recognition, he is a fantastic pianist and teacher.
respect! To plug another youtube instructor - and yes, Paul Barton is great - shows that you are in the right place! Your videos (and just the QUANTITY, not to mention the excellent quality.. though I just did) are so helpful. 'Tis very cool to see your love of learning alongside your obvious love of teaching.
In case you wonder, for the left hand use 5 only on B and E and move to the left
@@elantris-2002 It's very awkward, but I think you use the same fingering for going forwards and backwards.
You are the most wonderful instructor. I'm a retired old man -- who started learning piano when I was about eight but, then due to my dad's alcohol -- my music life went to hell. My mother was my first instructor and she was concert trained as well as she could do the Italian high note singing. She was also trained in violin and viola....RIP....and she was a wonderful woman. Because my dad's little penis syndrome -- he really suppressed her life and her skill sets as well as us eight children. You remind me of her in the way you explain things right down to the human experience of what the body goes through in the chosen art that has been chosen...."Piano". Bless you and the air that you breath. Thanks.
Great advice ! The first exercise is of course the same fingering as the upper notes of the double thirds scale used in the Etude. You can extend it by adding the descending part, which is fingered like this (from C downwards): 543 54 54 543 54. I am finding your tutorials very useful, particularly the advice about keeping the fingers close to the keys in rapid passagework. Best wishes, Paul
@PaulEhite743 - I prefer to work both hands equally and use the same fingerings in both hands in contrary with the RH starting on C and the LH starting on E with the RH going up and the LH going down.
I like this because it develops both of my hands equally.
Great video Josh! I am glad to see a proffesional stuggle. Its funny because when you try and play the etudes at speed you can see the struggle and pain in your face.
Josh, thank you for your very helpful suggestions. I have always found the Chopin op.10 no. 2 the BEST exercise to strengthen my right hand, which I need since I am left handed. One thing I have found helpful is to play the melody with the three smaller fingers while bringing the other fingers that play the chords to the keyboard in their right positions but without playing them. In this way the hand has to take the sometimes awkward positions it needs to while I can hear and concentrate on a good legato of the melody.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and passion for us all to learn.
Bro black and white looks sick
Thank you for sharing all this wonderful advice. I love your channel.
I found this video extremely useful and will definitely apply these practices to my own practice time!! On a side note, loving the tightened face you make when you play that thirds Etude xD
Awesome! It brings a professional perspective to a beginner and intermediate level.
Hi there I really enjoy your videos. I am a pianist and teacher and would like to know your thoughts on two areas. Firstly, what are some ways to really learn and memorise a piece so that it sticks in long-term memory (and also that you can play it under pressure). And secondly, how and what exercises and scales and pieces should I do (and techniques) to get my ability to a more professional/master level?
Those exercises look and sound amazing.I was thinking that maybe, no you should do The exercises with both hands to keep them even and improved both.
josh, this was so helpful. thank you so much!
Thank you for this. I have watched Paul Burton’s video on this and printed out that exercise, but I haven’t been doing it daily. I will start!
Great exercise Josh! Thanks for sharing. This has spurred me to start working on Op 10 No 2.
Nice tip! I'll have to try it. Thanks.
Thanks for all the help Josh! any chance you will ever film your hands from above? i have a hard time seeing what your playing sometimes! Thanx again!!
Hi Josh, I was wondering if you could do a video about double notes, playing them legato and particularly, having to play one line/note louder when it is carrying the melody while the other note should stay quiet. Thanks!
Thank you Josh!
Awesome exercise. You are the man!
It's great that I have never been to any piano lessons, but I can get them on UA-cam. Sad that Josh doesn't get to see me play, he has helped me greatly with my piano practicing! Or maybe he will, at my channel's piano videos... *wink*
Wow that was trippy.....it felt pretty easy to do so I didn’t think it was having much effect, but then I went to some octave tremelo for my boogie Woogie and my forearms were super loose hmmm. Maybe this is a better way to loosen my forearm than stretching 🤪
Hey, Josh, thank you for sharing this exercise! what would the corresponding exercises for the left hand be? would it be the same 345 or would you use 123? For the second exercise, would it be 12 also or 45? Thank you! :)
There's no reason you can't practice both exercises up and down. :) And since you can go both up and down, you might as well make them identical. So if you were going to use C and F for the right hand, then use B and E for the left hand. You'll notice that makes the ascent of the right identical to the descent of the left, and then the descent of the right identical to the ascent of the left. That's for the 345 exercise. For the 12 exercise, starting the left hand on E is equivalent to starting the right hand on C.
Chromatic scales are quite symmetrical. If you start with each hand a D note and move your hands apart playing each chromatic note, you'll notice the shape of the keyboard (white and black notes) is the exact same for each hand.
Thx for this awesome tutorial!
That's really helpful josh! Thanks ❤️
Great stuff Josh!
Ah.. Just like practicing 1, 2, and 3 in the same pattern... How did this never occur to me? Oddly enough I restrict myself to the weaker fingers often but haven't done it in this way.
Woh!... U are amazing bro, what finger do you used for the chromatic scales? I really don't get it 😂
Hi Josh... I have a question. I'm advanced pianist, I began at 4 and I'm 37 but I never really worked on my left hand as I should. I'm a little uneasy around Bach for example although with practice I do fine. I'm starting a difficult piece soon with left had dominance (right hand supporting-- main melodies on the left); what type of exercises do you advise me to do to strengthen the left had?
I like your channel. Thank u
Thanks, this helps so much for La Campanella
luv these videos
Hey im a middle gold beginner. Which keys do I press? :( please help me, it seems to be usefull amd id like to use this technique
do these exercises work the same in the left hand? like going up i do 1 and 2 and seperately 3 and 4 and 5? or is the left hand descending?
should i do the same with the left hand?
Which Etude is the double 3rds excerpt from? The same Chopin piece?
do I do these exercises going both up and down the keys? Or simply just ascending?
Go down too. Don't be surprised if going down is harder (or easier). It isn't necessary to keep the same tempo ascending and descending. You should work on ascending and descending separately. Later practice ascending 1 octave followed by 1 octave descending, slowly at first. Then 2 octaves, then 3... Also, start at the top play the scale descending then ascending. Try triplets, quadruplets, quintuplets (hard), sextuplets. You get the idea.
@J Park - I do them in contrary motion using exactly the same fingering with the RH starting on C and the LH startibg on E.
What is the fingering for 1,2 Chromatic scale?
I suppose there's a reason Chopin is hailed as one of the greatest virtuosos of all time.
My weak left hand is ridiculously weak. Playing Andante Spianato left hand with too much weight on the inner g note. It's a pain be sure my head hears how it should be played. So frustrating.
Can I do the same thing for left hand too?
Yes, but instead of using 5 on Cs and Fs you will have to use 5 on Es and Bs as to respect the mirror image on the piano. You can also play both at the same time, contrary motion, starting on D or Ab, that way you make sure both your right and left hand end up on the same color and the same finger.
What's the name of this second chopin etude..he was playing on first chromatique op.10 no.2 but I mean second
op 25 no 6
it would'v helped if you had the camera over your hands and also have done it a little bet slower so we can tell how are you doing it !! thanks
Which Steinway model is that?
I cant play Chopin 10 2 fast enough. My right hand gets so stiff I can't keep up the speed. What can I do??? My hands are so heavy ;(
can anyone tell me where is the Paul barton video that he is refering in this video?😂thx!
not useful to me because i cant see with which finger you hit which note :( ....can you please explain that ? I just noticed ,,,5 at F and C and 34 an the other notes ,,,but ...if i hit C with 5 how to hit next the #C with the 3 ? the fingers overlap ?!Sorry for my English
+babis dupakos To spell out 1 OCTAVE OF FINGERING ASCENDING from middle-C: C-5, C#-3, D-4, D#-3, E-4, F-5, F#-3, G-4,G#-3, A-4, A#-3, B-4, C-5 This is the fingering you should be using in your right hand for multiple octaves, slowly increasing speed, but starting very slowly.
Thank you very much my friend !!! :) very usefull !!! Now another question ...How i do this descending ?! I mean witch fingers to witch notes ...
+babis dupakos It,s which cheers
@@charlottewhyte9804 why do you feel the need to correct his spelling? English is obviously not his native tongue. Hey, your English is really poor. Spell "it's" - NOT "It,s" - perhaps, YOU should go back to school - and learn some good manners while you're there!!! :D
Guys how do I go down???
actually. . I dun get it, for rite hand 5 on C.F., what abt left hand?Please Help!😂😂
Is this a formal exercice? Because I ve never met a piece that allows me this fingering and I don't want to hurt my hands !!! :)
What do you mean ?? Lol because he demonstrated with a piece that literally uses this exact fingering .
Haha okay :-) ur welcome :-)
The way you grabbed your jacket when mentioning (bragging) how well you played Scarbo is one of the douchiest things I've ever seen.
man if he ever played jazz woooo weee! be like art tatum
Sounds like Flight of the Bumblebee
i'm sorry i don't understand the 3,4,5 exercise. could someone reexplain it to me. does Josh mean that the 5th finger should only hit on C and F. (white key. and what about 3rd and 4th fingers)... sorry maybe it's because it's too early here. my brain is still sleeping
wh hw the 5th finger should only go on C and F, nowhere else, and 3,4 goes on everything else
Thanks. Black note as well? Hum. In front of m'y piano i still dont get it. Let s try. 5th on c. Then what 3 on d ? Or 4? Awkward
:D Yeah 5th on C, then 3rd on c#, 4th on d, 3rd on d#, 4th on e and then 5th on F and so on
+ccccoooooollll that IS awkward hahah
actually, it felt pretty ok for me XD
Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins!
Come to HIM Today. Much love!!
Can you slow it down 😂😜 cause a little difficult to understand
I had an add where this woman was playing Strauss and the other woman jokingly called her Mozart, ughhhhh
It's funny, because as difficult and fortuitous as Liszt's music is to play, he often regarded Chopin's etudes and works as downright torturous.
