    Oh Jonny (Oh Jonny Oh) I started messing with piano aged 5..I'm now 79...yes I've been playing jazz ( dixieland) and pop stuff and never really got out of those styles even though I've attempted, never had any lessons, folks hear me at gigs and say " you're great" but I know that's rubbish because I fake everything ... suddenly you've opened my eyes to what it's all about with chords I've heard played, but never managed to work out...I think I'm past my sell-by date to start learning music but I'll be going through your tips and start practicing.. I might even get there! Thanks very much.

      @@newagain9964 I think it’s just so hard cuz it’s an entirely different realm of music from classical. I grew up classical so the transition is also something I am struggling with. I’ve simply taken on the mindset of a beginner and ignored anything I learned in the past to try and make room for new learning which has made it a lot more easier to learn.

    I’ve been seeing your youtube ads everywhere and I never cared for them because I’m currently delving into classical music. I listen to both jazz and classical music and both have their aspects that make me SO fond of them, but I’ve only analyzed into the innerworkings of classical music because I’ve grown up around the importance of sight reading. Most people say that you can only learn one genre at a time, however today I felt eager to learn jazz and came upon this video. This video made my day, I am so mesmerized and I’m only 4 minutes in! Thank you for this video Johnny :)

I’ve even, without realising, been playing a 2-5-1 in 7ths and 6ths without understanding the significance of it but just loving the sound and combination of chord shapes but not the reason and in 18 minutes you, Sir, have explained everything from soup to nuts. Incredible!!! .. I will be signing up today! This has been an epiphany. Thanks Jonny 😀

    Really enjoyed this Jonny. My mother was a classical piano teacher and I treasure the gift of playing piano she gave me in lessons as a youngster growing up in New Zealand. I won medals and at high school I won the piano solo prize with a Mozart sonata on the new Steinway grand. BUT I hit a road block in theory - hated it - and eventually stopped. Now in my senior years I want to play by ear beyond C major., I love jazz piano - the standards are what I want to play, but I guess it's the theory block that stops me. 2-5-1 beyond C, I just can't take it in. Can you believe it? I just want to get out of the C zone. Found your great video today and love your style of instruction.
