      Do you accept other payment methods besides credit cards? Paypal for example? Bit weird for a British organization to only have the credit card option since those are not that common in most of Europe.

      @nopizzanoglory We can do paypal, we also accept debit card as well as credit card. Just enter your debit card details in the stripe field and it should work otherwise we can invoice you directly at admin@contemporaryschoolofpiano.com with your preference.

    I wanna tell you a story about my experience. Last November I had a stroke and my entire left body side coordination was out of control and everything reguarding fine and fast and precise movement were gone. After hospital I went to the keyboard and reaalized that I could not play anymore, it was like I never toutched the piano in my whole life ( I'm not a pro, I just play some gigs sometimes for fun, but still very important to me). Tha day before you can play Chopin, the next day you are less then a biginner. So I had to restart from zero, with the super basic exercise I was doing when I was a kid, play for the first time. No muscole memory, no coordination between the fingers on the keys, no coordination on the distance between the keys. After practising many hours every day I was slowly reboulding the mouvement. When I was building a good and solid structure on my movement I could move slowly to groove, but I realized that the groove was always there, hidden among the simplest exercises while I was rebuilding the coordination of my fingers at 46 bpm, imprinting the movement in the memory of my brain, accustoming it to a regular cadence. Time is the key. Getting your brain used to coordinating within a rhythm. Very slowly increasing the speed. After six weeks I went back to playing in a pub, it was an immense joy. Groove, for me, is where you find the combination of rhythm and expressiveness, it's like a dance, we always have to move like we are dancing. With groove.

      Wow, thanks so much for sharing this with us. As a pianist, it was inspiring and terrifying to read at the same time. What a brave achievement for you to bounce back. Thank you and gratitude to you for sharing that - reach out to us anytime. tom@contemporaryschoolofpiano.com

    A really important lesson. IMO rhythm is the most important part of music. It's so important for beginners to incorporate rhythm into their playing very early on. It sounds more exciting, it's more exciting - and therefore motivating - to play and just makes everything sound better. A really basic improv can sound massively better with just a little rhythm. Hope you do more vids like this, Tom. :)

    • @contemporaryschoolofpiano
      @contemporaryschoolofpiano  Рік тому +2

      You're absolutely right! Rhythm is indeed a fundamental component of music and is crucial to the overall feel and structure of any piece. Integrating rhythm into practice from early stages helps set a strong foundation for further learning and development.
      Moreover, you make an excellent point about the excitement factor. When beginners are able to incorporate rhythm and create music that's lively and engaging, it not only sounds better but also increases their motivation to continue learning.
      Thank you for emphasizing this essential aspect of music learning and for your insightful comment. It's this type of dialogue that enriches our learning community. Keep up the good work, and happy playing!

      I agree Bruce. I've found quite a few for intermediate/advanced players but not many for people nearer the beginner end of the spectrum.

    I appreciate this work. Love the Reggae Groove section; noticed Red Red Wine is credited to Bob Marley, he never actually wrote or covered it! Neil Diamond wrote it, then Tony Tribe did a Reggae cover version - there are Reggae Versions of many Songs, it was one of the main ways that Audience were introduced to said songs - Easy mistake to make! Bob's 'No Woman No Cry' is very popular, has Classical and Beatles-esque chords with Reggae rhythm. You could do a whole lesson all of it's own on that song (hint, hint!). Anyway: Thanks and I wish you Good Fortune.

    Is each of these grooves shown AND played in the grooves course/pack?
    And for the “extras” in the playing - left hand, runs and fillers- where can you point me at?
    thanks also for the many YT videos for us piano students 👏👏👏

      It's more to the problematic lighting in my studio! Very nice to work with lots of natural light, but it can be problematic for shooting. Then again, cameras are like hi-fi, how long is a piece of string!

    Hi, looked at your website, but it’s not very clear what you’re getting for each course. For instance what’s the difference between the 20 dollar rhythm course and the 245 dollar course? It doesn’t really say. Sincerely and interested potential student.

      Thanks for your questions. You can find more detailed information by subscribing to our school mailing list and by requesting our resources pack (rather than just visiting our website) we do this deliberately because we have a waiting list for some of these courses - but Groove Mastery (£20) and Complete Musician (£475) are both available more widely and can be purchased without speaking with us directly. Groove mastery is often referred to in many of these UA-cam videos. Groove is generally missing from most people's music education, and it's only a mere £20. Regarding the Complete Musician course on this page, you'll find lots of information on this program: lcsp.samcart.com/products/the-complete-musician-essentials. Our other programs and one-to-one coaching/lessons require some consultation with us first so we can help you make the best decisions. You can find out more about these programs and other ones by emailing us at admin@contemporaryschoolofpiano.com or by emailing our enrolments team at cait@contemporaryschoolofpiano.com. Regarding our One-to-one coaching and lessons, this is largely dependent on the individual student and we recommend booking a Discovery Session and filling out our application form so we can put together a program that will elevate and solve your musical challenges. So it's worth contacting us via our site and getting access to some of our application forms, the questions will help you figure out what the next best stages are in your piano playing. I hope this helps!

      Already have - watch our recent videos, dozens of them have been internationally televised so they are above YT standard quality (colour grading, etc). We are not really "UA-camrs" in that sense. We are an international piano school that has researched leading educational and teaching methods for piano over the last two decades. Doesn't cost you a penny to watch them and benefit from them.
