    How I would love to reach a point where I could play so smoothly like this man. I am doing the exercises that he recommends and actually am making progress. It's been 3 days of stopping at the piano when I walk by it and trying to do what he shows us. At first you feel like Don Music from Sesame Street who would bang his head on the piano when he couldn't figure things out but eventually, your fingers get in synch and your head stops thinking about every little move. It is like learning to type in that you eventually let the brain and fingers do their thing while you think of what it is you want to say and not the mechanics of hitting the keyboard. Christian, t
    hank you so much for sharing your expertise!

    Many thanks Christian, a great lesson. Trying to learn piano after all these years (60 years old!) Now 12 weeks of self isolation has given me some time to learn the basics. Really helping me get to work on hand independence, something cool to learn during these strange times. Stay safe.

    Hello Christian , this practice was like receiving your knowledge and patience
    on a big silver plate. How fortunate we are. Up to us to polish this plate
    as often as we want , “it’s all there for tutorial on that subject”. BTW. During your
    slow version, (so appreciative) it is still too fast for now, so I use a diminished speed
    Of .75 instead of ( little dots on top right) the full speed. It helps so much when I
    follow you simultaneously . One day: time is not that important, I’ll go full Formula 1
    speed à la Louis Hamilton AND the right way ( I hope) :)
    thanks to you! Nicole from the sunny Florida

    Very cool!. That's exactly what I needed. Agree with the basic shuffle 1-5 and 1-6. It has cost me plenty of time to challenge this. Meanwhile I got adapted to another left hand from a beginner video from you, which is 1-b7-5-6-5 (counts 1 2+3 4). Even my piano teacher asked for that specific riff ;-) If possible for another beginner video, I'd like to see more right hand lines for that specific left hand bass line.

  • @j.p.6023
    @j.p.6023 4 роки тому +1

    I have difficult to transpose my blues skills in all 12 keys because of the key-dependent fingering, the different position of grace and cluster combination from one ey to another. Have you some exercises with printed fingering in all the keys, or there are some general rules to apply? Thanks about your work

    • @ChristianFuchsBlues
      @ChristianFuchsBlues  4 роки тому +2

      I dont have exercises. But I can tell you that everybody in the world has the same problem. Some keys have similarities like D and E an A for some licks. Other licks need different setting. Find your favorite setting for a key and then STAY with it! The rest is practice practice practice. And in live improvisation we often improvise fingersetting, too. Cause we always come from a different situation. Its not all as clean as in a perfect exercise.
