    Alberto, this was exceptional, intuitive, musical, and easy learning. Quite easily the best lesson that I've seen to get the left hand and right to work together to get the grips on blues. You've taught me to get the handle on blues in just one lesson. Cheers mate

    Awesome, on my fourth day of learning to play piano and wanting to play the blues I found your video after trying another dozen or so that really didn’t work well for me. Your slow simple progression of the blues chords did it. I’m now playing that with both hands. OK, it’s day four of learning to play the piano, it’s a little clumsy but I’m being slow and precise. Thanks so much. I studied acting with George Schdanoff from the Moscow art theater who worked with Michael Chekhov , He told us that not every actor can teach. I can see that the same is true for Musicians. You are born teacher! Thanks a lot!

    • @contemporaryschoolofpiano
      @contemporaryschoolofpiano  2 роки тому +1
