@@abhishekkoshy8066 Hey ! I am also 14 and my friend is Ashish Koshy !!

first part go easy pace first , then speed, that helps us lady!
Lisa definitely deserves a special place in heaven. The plethora of free tips is saint-worthy and greatly appreciated 🙏🏽
@@jacetheface9606 she definitely does😇
You are a special gifted person and a great teacher. When I have given up all my hopes of learning because of my age you made it so easy for me. I am practicing your method of playing chords everyday. Thank you and God bless you.
I feel the exact same thing. I'm 55 and i just started playing about 4 years ago. I took lessons for almost 2 years and, i couldn't remember or even grasp some of these inversions and other things. I don't read music but, i have a gift of being able to remember entire songs based on sound and what comes next. The way she teaches has opened up new neurological pathways in my brain. I'm love her teaching style and explanations.
Inversions are my favorite. I like how you explained how to decided how to play your chords. Thank you for the liberation of my mind.
This is so helpful. Thanks, Lisa! Everything you have done lately has been the perfect level for me-just beyond beginner and learning to add more variety to my playing.
You are an amazing teacher. Complicated concepts are easy explain. Thanks for your contribution.
For me, arpeggios are always so beautiful. Great lesson as usual - thank you!
Thank you Lisa!! Love your lessons! Thank you Pianote team!
I love arpeggios, and slash chords sounds interesting. Thank You!
I love everything you are doing here. Thanks for the encouragement!!!
Thanks , I was wondering what to do next. I always watch your lessons. You the best!
Awesome tips! Thank you!
This is just beautiful. I play with all three. Haven't gotten use to the slash chords yet but I'm still practicing. It's just awesome. Thanks for sharing
This is really great, you make me want to at least try, and I am surprised. Thank you for sharing this valuable music. RB
Very helpful!! Thank you so much!
That’s beautiful! #3 my favorite . I will try it. Thank you!
Inversions sounds amazing, thank you!
The second tip is very very helpful...and I am a big fan of ur presentation..the simplest of things u make for us even simpler.. thank you ☺️
Fantastic lesson!!!! Thanks for sharing
I really liked the way you demonstrated the arpeggios travelling from left hand to right hand! It sounded like a beautiful ballad! Thank you, you’re a fantastic teacher
Love your lessons and tips. You rock, thanks.
You are 100% A-maz-ing! So appreciate your piano note tutorials… Keep them coming!! 💜 🎧 💜
You are so awesome and I just love your lessons, wish I could like the video a million times.
Love your lessons.
You're a really nice tutor..Thanks!
I truly like this!
It proves that I’m already on the right track. Thank you!
Very helpful! Thank you!
Thank you! You are so good ♥️ I learn something new every video :)
I love watching pianote's videos. It always gives me knowledge and ideas for my music 🙏
this was amazing. i never understood chord inversions at all and this put it in a new perspective which helped me understand it a lot. thank you:)
Hey Pianonote, I love all the videos and they've helped me immensely.
I'd love a video or two on improvising more repetitive style melodies used in beats for example and how to create chords and counter melodies to accompany these.
This channel is heaven sent! I learned piano without learning notes, cuz what my momma hire when I was young doesn't know how to read them. I am actually relying on hearing mostly, and this type of videos made my play sound a lot better. ❤️
Simple and awesome! :) Thank You! :D
Thanks!!! Great teacher!!!
Thanks, Lisa. Gotta try it!
Awesome. Thanks!
Hands down best teacher. Period!
Great .... simple .... my speed.
Great little bite of info for big results. I love it.
Thank you! I started practicing arpeggio’s yesterday and they became very simple that inversions are easy to execute now! Mechanically that is. Still need to play with when to use specific inversions, but I can do it with out looking now! Wow!!! What an improvement. The piano is feeling so intuitive and natural to me for the first time ever. I’m 40!
Hey, I have one more tip: When you play a "slash chord" where the bass note is the middle note of the chord (for example if you're playing a G chord with a bass note of B, or a C chord with a bass note of E), try leaving that middle note out of the right hand! For the example of a C chord, you could have an E in the bass and just a C and G in the right hand, so the bass note is the only E. (This works whether or not you play the bass note in octaves.)
You mean play fifths chord in the right and third note in the left hand? Yeah I did that with the song "Hallelujah" it sure sounds attractive!
@@yazzie05 Yes!
@@philipmcniel4908 whoa that was one quick reply I must say
Amazing, thank you so much
I love this channel!!!
Thank you so much xx you are such a great tutor ❤️
i really love your ideas and teaching ,thank you , on my way to play it :)
Hello, teacher, thank you for all these sounds!
I am watching every video of you are making and following your lessons!
I am beginner but with your help, I am doing very well =)))
I just subscribed, I've been checking out your videos and I really like the way you explain things, so talented.
Thanks again for this lesson! By the way I like the background
Thank you so much for this...
Lovely... Thank you!
I've been trying to learn piano as a first step in becoming a producer and your channel has helped me a ton! Thank you for making great vids like this one!
So happy to hear this!!!!
Haven't even gotten my piano yet but I'm so excited and I am binge watching these videos. Great stuff you guys make.
Thank you for your video, very usefull :)
I like the slash chord..😊..thanks.
Thanks for setting me right on what slash chords are. !!! :-)
Used to think that slash chords sound awful but once i got better,i found that they are useful and sound good if you use them at the right time and place.
Thank you.
Totally! And thanks for always commenting on our videos :)
@@PianoteOfficial Good content deserves to be recognized.
Hey Lisa great tips for people!! I was going to add to what you said, and the slash chords can bee used in many different songs, but what i was going to say when the slash chords came in mind is durring the first Noelle. It adds a festive sound for Christmas.
Arpigio one was my favourite. Thanks
Awesome 👌
Wow really helped me
Well played. I learned new methods/tips from this 3 ways to sound better clip. E.g. in Arpeggios: LH & RH synchronize Triad + Octave, felt sound better. Inversion / Chord of G/B, F/A, etc. had better chord tone instead of playing root notes in LH.
Thanks a lot !
Best Wishes !!
This was amazingly helpfull... Can you please make some more tips on how to improve your technique in this way to sound better
You r awesome , very good work
Thank you teacher.
You are amazing,, teacher. Nag laing, sana all marunong mag piano.
you are great you make it look easy still trying getting there.
Hey Lisa. This is really amazing. Im doing it now. Though its not so fluid. Ill get there.
Awesome, subbed. You are so like my mom. Such excitement in your teaching us.
Speaking words of wisdom... LET IT BE!
Beautiful 👍
Thanks again
Great way to enjoy my piano... Thanks gorgeous
I’m fairly comfortable with many inversions and slash chords-though I didn’t know that is what they are called. I should try arpeggios.
Thanks 🇬🇧
Definitely arpeggios for me! Thanks
Great tescher...
I live your videos. You are perfect
I love your channel. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
thanku..........
Really good!
I'm 55 and just begun learning to play about 4 years ago. I took lessons for almost 2 years and finances became a big issue fir me so, i had to discontinue the lessons. I learned inversions but couldn't remember or even grasp some of these inversions and other things. I don't read music kinda sorry to say but, i have a gift of being able to remember entire songs based on sound and what comes next. The way you teachis VERY simikoar to my instructor's style minus the grabbing of my fingers for correct placement (😂). You have a different approach that have opened up new neurological pathways in my brain. I'm enthusiastic about continuing and, your tutorials are quenching my thirst for piano knowledge. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 🌹
Thank you for sharing this! I am so happy that you are able to learn with me and Pianote. Sharing the passion for music is what is all about and you seem to have passion to spare. :)
I Love them all really😃
not bad! she did a better job than other videos ! this was simple and well explained. but beginners do not know what ROOT IS . NICE AND I ENJOYED THIS VIDEO, NOT BORING. !
Slash chords in this progression can really bring about a falling/ descending pattern and your ear really just goes for it automatically.
And this progression is totally Let It Be. I was singing it the whole time!!
Beginning sounds like "Unchained Melody", one of my favorite songs!
Nice!
Inversions my fav
Your videos are really helping me ♥️♥️♥️ thnku so much!!! I also have a request, do you have a video about slash chords? I would really love to learn more of them!!! If not could u please make a long video on them? And also use the chords on the F scale pls? That would be great! Thankyou once again ♥️♥️♥️😍
Hi Joesph! We DO have more on slash chords right here: ua-cam.com/video/YW0FsV5CI_U/v-deo.html
You are beautiful playing your piano 👍🏻😀😀
cool thanks a lot
I literly already know this. I do not even am a pianist, but I still Like to see your videos for Some reason. Maybe it is because your videos are so good for New musicians
Also because of her lovely attitude :D
Thanks ...
Puzzled by your use of the term "first inversion" at 2'05" - by definition, a first inversion has the 3rd at its bass and you have the root at the bass. So your first inversion is actually root position with a slightly different chord spacing. A first inversion has a very different sound, which you demonstrate later when you do put the third and fifth in the bass, and it is these that are 1st and 2nd inversions.
I've been doing that just by curiosity without knowing that it was something doable. My ears never lied to me when it comes to piano sounds.
thankyou
Thank you ma'am
You know, sometimes the teacher is important to make you pay focus! I mostly watch videos from Lisa. Not that the other teachers does not have the way to impart their knowledge but it's just her way suits more to me. I don't know if it's her way of speaking or her scripts and lessons... but anyhow also Jordan was good in a lot of the videos!
thank all of you for making that content.
thanks
I love the way this woman plays the piano. There is something mesmerising about it..
What piano is that? Sounds great!
I recently discovered (through an Elton John song) that it's also very cool to play the 7th note in the bass of any chord. (Example: C minor over A flat.)
