Hello Lisa, I am 81 years old never had the chance to learn the piano, I live in a small apartment ,no room for a lg piano sooo I ordered a keyboard that arrived today, I have been watching your videos and I am so excited about earning from you,,the sheet music is going to be a real challenge for me,, all I want is to be able to play some Christmas songs next year,,love your up beat attitude ..
How has your practicing been going Shirley? 🎹 🎼
I love this ❤
Hey
Hows it going so far?
How’s the piano going?
God bless you in endeavor.
i cant afford a teacher but have been watching you for about a year now and can play a bunch of pieces and even made one of my own. I never thought i could do that or even learn to play. Sincere thank you.
We are so glad to hear that!! I promise there's lots more free lessons coming up :)
that's great. i'm also learning by myself and these excercise videos are the best! there's so much hype and weird stuff out on the internet. this is gold.
This is amazing. I have a new piano as a surprise for Xmas,,, I have never TOUCHED a piano or played a note when I go along to see a tutor who offered me lessons £15 per half an hour (around $20 USA) I don’t think I can afford this and feel a little lost. Is it possible to learn piano online?? I can’t believe it is 🤷♀️😍😍😍
There should be a full series of Beginner to expert. She is the best piano teacher.
We've got ***that*** on pianote.com :P
@@PianoteOfficial ohh, could you please link the the course here
@@Ali-lm7uw You need to get a pianote account for all the courses. And you should.
@@andyturner4197 oh, how much does it cost and it good?
Hi my name is Bill I'm 71 and always wanted to play piano. I have been watching your videos for a few weeks now and find playing much more enjoyable your piano for beginners is great thanks and I will keep watching
Simple. Effective. Lessons.
Happy New Year Lisa!!!!
It is so great to see you teaching how to play the piano.
This is my opinion is the best piano chorus - vocal- guitar-bass and drum chorus on line ... You will not be disappointed... I have been a student for about 4 years...
I’m glad I found this page. I played piano as a very young child, again for about a year in high school and haven’t played in almost 8 years. I just ordered a keyboard and I’m happy you have this video and the videos on reading sheet music to help me remember !
I am so grateful that you share these videos and you are such a beautiful soul. I just got my keyboard last week and I’ve found that your videos are so joyful to learn and play along with.
I love your videos. Please keep posting more of them. My best wishes for 2022.
I love your videos!!! You have made my learning curve enjoyable & shorter.
i'm looking forward to keep on learning
I'm hooked! Just bought my first keyboard piano last sunday. Very glad to discover the beautiful Lisa and her piano "tutorials" and wow, she's got a lovely voice too!
thank you!!! your inspiring spirit jumps overseas! 💗🙏🏼
I am so grateful for you sharing your knowledge. I just started learning piano two days ago.
Im beginning to read music whivh is something ive never been able to do! Thank you
Thank you so much for these videos. You're the best 🙌🎹🎹🙌.
I love all your videos... you're awesome dear
I was extremely thankful to open a Christmas gift this year, a Keyboard! I spent the week practicing Auld Lang Syne & was completely fascinated by the joy of the entire process. I had a mini frightening family performance hahaa. I'll be learning solo with a chord book at hand, simple song progressions & lots of patients. My Granda adored music and i adopted his passion as i grew up, to my hopes that one day i can grow my playing skills & play one of his favourite songs, Bridge over troubled water. Here's to a journey of learning!
This was AMAZING
Thank you ❤️
You guys are AMAZING!!!!
Happy new year everyone! I bought myself an electric piano for Christmas and have learned Ode to Joy already. I did play violin when I was young so I can read music but I will be practising every day as my new year resolution. Happy playing for 2022!
Cant wait to start off 2022 with learning a piano!🤞
Thanks for you time and easy way of understanding. Keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
Thank you for sharing
You are very fun to watch and listen to 👌🏼🎵😊

Thanks for your learning skills. You’re Very helpful and happy spirit is contagious. I’m learning, but my keyboard is 61 keys and a little challenging. Thanks.
Happy new year Lisa and team, looking forward to a productive 2022. Stay safe 🎉🎉🎉🎉😎
Happy new year!!
Hi
Thank you for yor valuable piano lessons 🙏🙏
very good teacher. love to watch and learn
Hi! I love your channel and I've been playing the piaon for a few years. Had some lessons too. I used to play clarinet, flute as a kid. So my biggest issue with music is reading the F scale and mostly the higher and lower notes, and chords with these. I tend to forget very quickly. That's why I just learn songs by ear and not through sheets. Do you perhaps have any tips for me? I lost my enthusiasm because of this, because reading the music is more difficult for me then listening. Though if songs get more complex, you can't learn everything by ear. Thanks for your awesome channel!! Happy new year!
First, your Joie de Vivre is amazing...pretty sure you could teach us how to lay bricks...or how to become an astronaut...second, thanks for all those hints and short cuts and etc...all you really want us to do is to play piano, whatever way we use to get there...and i love it..as a almost 55 year old piano player..mostly composition..i still love to go back and see what is in trend...and boum..after watching a bunch..i saw your videos..that is it...it will be you and only you from now on..if i feel like a refresh or to learn something new...Wishing you an amazing year...and again..your Joie de vivre is so great...you are a Gem...thank you
Great its helpfull thanks
Having been learning guitar for the last 10 months and just starting piano a few weeks ago, the easiest and most simple thing for me was learning the keyboard. It took me all of about 1 minute. Compared to the location of notes on a guitar, the piano is wonderfully simple, straightforward and linear. Now of course, playing it is a different matter. But at least I am not hunting for notes or forgetting where specific notes are. Also, having some background in music theory, scales, progressions, triads and chords and chord families from my time with guitar has certainly given me a leg up as far as basic knowledge that you need to know/learn while also learning how to play.
I have my piano and guitar setup in my living room too. It is where I primarily hang out so that is where I need it to be to play...or see it every day and feel guilty if I don't practice....LOL. As for practice, I use the Faber books which has short melodies as I am learning how to play. I wish there were decent guitar lesson books available like the Faber books for piano.
But the lady is certainly correct in everything she said......can't learn if you don't know the keys (it would be like trying to type a letter on the computer without knowing where the letters are on the computer keyboard). You are not going to play if your piano is hidden away. And planning out lessons or using a lesson book and melodies or songs is a great stimulator to keep going,
Nicely explained mam
This was really good advice and information. I can't tell you how helpful this is.
You are a very Good teacher
you are a very good commenter!!
you're a great teacher!
I love how she teaches
The key concept is to not let that little negative nellie voice inside talk you out of continuing to put in the time. Trust me when I say that even on days when you feel certain that you are not getting anywhere, the truth is that you ARE, because each experience builds a new neural pathway in your brain, and when you return to the task day after day, you brain takes notice that his is a new recurring activity that is not going to stop, and it prioritizes this experience just like it did when you first started walking or adding numbers or chopping celery. Your presence at the keyboard tells your brain, "Hey! Pay attention! This is important!" A couple of months down the road, allow yourself to see that the things which were once "impossible" are not only possible, but you can now do them nearly automatically. That automatic ability is the ultimate brain training goal, and everyone's brain can do it. You just have to stick with it.
I love that perspective! good to have you here :)
@@PianoteOfficial My pleasure. I get a lot out of your videos!
Lisa...wish you a happy and healthy new year...🎹🍀🌹
Aa! Thank you for creating such amazing content to help people play piano, it's been really helping me to try and live my dream as a pianist!
Best intro and first lesson i've ever heard/watched.
Excellent tips! You don't need a private piano teacher. Just keep watching Lisa and the other talented teachers on this channel. Or better yet become a member of their piano course as I have. It will have you playing your favorite songs quickly and impressing everybody if you have the discipline to practice daily.
Thankyou xo
Thanks. Teacher 😘😘😘😘
I never thought in my wildest dreams did l think l will be able to learn piano,however since l started watching your lessons l am halfway there. Great teacher indeed. Thank you
Beautiful
Super cool video, am totally gonna get an piano and try this.
I thinking buying the Yamaha p125
(much love from Denmark ❤)
Happy Newd dear Lisa
Hi Lisa, I am 72 years old and am an intermediate guitar player and can read music a little. I have purchased last week an electric keyboard with 88 keys. Have discovered you on youtube and seen a few of your videos.
I am retired and can devote at least 7 hours a week on learning to play piano.
I have not looked at anyone else on youtube and keen to go with only one teacher.
I look forward to learning from you.
BTW huge Stones fan and loved your T shirt.

Really nice tips to play piano
happy new year my best teacher and happy all life
Brilliant advice..I started playing in lockdown watching these clips..I cant believe what i am achieving now..the nice thing is playing what I like..from Pop to Classical...not awful technical exam pieces that are tedious and sound like a bang of spanners even when played correctly !..Thoroughly enjoying it and you are my ''go to'' teacher..Happy New Year Lisa and thanks for your help
Encouraging to know that means with lots of practice from Lisa I'll be playing soon!
@@adeolagbadamosi3799 You will..I guarantee it ...and not so much lots of practice...the right practice to make the best use of your time is key
So cool..... it's feels so easy seeing you teach
Happy New year eve 🎉🎉

Wow. The big aha moment for me was trying to read the alphabet the in reverse that makes so much sense. Thank you.
The snakes - lol!! Great teacher! I have learned so much from you! Thank you always!!!!
This is Sakit Akram Sumit, from Bangladesh. I really like all your videos. God bless you.
Your Awesome 😍😍😍👌
Hi Lisa, I just enrolled the pianote course, but I don't know where I should start as a beginner. Should I start at Method part first or Foundations part first? Please help me out. Thank you
Oh baby I love that sweet voice my friend!🙋🏿♂️😬
You are such a brilliant teacher. I get frustrated with myself some days but you always make me smile and remind to just have fun and be patient and do what I can each day. Thank you xx
Lisa can you do a video on Pianote Planner that would be really helpful thank ❤️
What I would give if you were my teacher in person! You seem such a fun teacher!
we are so lucky to have lisa!!
Super
yup!....❤
This is perfect! I'm getting a piano at the start of 2022 and been watching pianote like crazy!
Thanks!
Hey how’s it going for
You? I got my piano for Christmas and haven’t touched it yet lol
@@lisajhay4387 lol you totally should, I been practicing everyday! Trying to learn cannon in D at the moment
@@spencer6049 brilliant! I’ve been practising a couple of hours per day recently and enjoying it although feeling like my memory is rubbish cos I totally keep forgetting everything! Hehe x
@@lisajhay4387 wow a couple hours is very impressive! I don't manage to get as much in but I try to be consistent. I believe if you keep it up you'll be on your way in no time!
God bless you
Nice singing voice!
I have a new piano and want so much to learn properly to play from a music sheet… I am just turned 50 and wanted
To learn since I was around 9/10… do I need real person lessons? I’m seeing a teacher once a week but I don’t think I can afford to keep doing it as I lost my job due to covid so money is right right now…. Can I learn online? Really? Lisa you have an amazing talent but also an amazing voice! You’re so inspiring xx
Thank you. My 6 year old son is learning from you.
Can you teach yellow by coldplay? It would really help a lot, thank you!
Again a wonderful video for beginner! I started my journey with Lisa and her pianonote team some months ago. It is very helpful, espacialy in these times and the team is great!
I always start laughing, when Lisa speaks about the "musical alphabet" and "there are no other letters" - because here in germany, and I still have not found the reason why, you use "H" instead of "B". And because of Lisa I am now using the english names only - confusing my friends every time :D
I always find that funny too! Lisa always makes a point of saying there is no H but there is!!!
A restore mark (notation: Natural sign.svg) is used in music notation to restore a previous sharp or flat note of a sharp or flat to the root note. The same is true for restored notes in key signatures with accidentals. The sign is derived from the letter b, just like the sign for mole. The flat sign comes from the round b and the recovery sign is derived from the "square" b that looks more like an h (hence also the H in the German musical note name).
great support
Do I need a hands cool down after finishing my practice?
Dankie
I have a few more tips for you guys, if you live in a confined space such as an apartment complex, busy area where you have heavy traffic, I suggest a set of headphones to help you, a common problem in learning any instrument is the ability to make mistakes often and becoming frustrated to the point of quitting similar to a very hard, mean sports coach. Another tip, pick a song that you know and finger pick it out on your keyboard and when you become more fluent, add a couple of additional keys whether in treble or bass that make your original one finger sound more rounded out. Another tip, look at any pianist or other musical instrumentalist as an inspiration to keep playing, they were just like you and me when they began their musical career, you with time and practice (10-30 minutes or longer) a day will give you a sense of accomplishment and the desire to keep at it. Another tip, use all the tools you have available, internet, possibly schedule for some classes, simple chord charts or whatever you have on hand to help you. Another tip, if you have the means to record your time playing on an instrument, this will give you immediate feedback on your progress and accomplishments and of course mistakes. About me, I'm not a trained musician nor can I read music but I do play by ear, all I have done on a keyboard is repetition playing and my first piece I learned was Moonlight Sonata 1 from my mom when I was 9.
10 - 15 min a day, that gives confidence
Hey I just wanted to ask that I have a 44 keys piano right now and I can't really seem to really play the keys softly.. please tell me what to in that case if you can help with that
Please 🥺🥺
And please tell that if it's ok to write letters on piano or not
How many more lessons are there in the beginner series?
Thank you Lisa. Happy New Year to you and all at Pianote. Looking forward to more inspiring content next year 😀
Happy new year to you as well :) :)
Where can you go to buy a keyboard?
hi. where is the second lesson? are they numbered in an order to work through? thanks
I wish I was ambidextrous... piano certainly is about practise 👍

Hello madam , how long will it take for me to play keyboard naturally; I am purely beginner!
Just went to you website, was very impressed, was thinking about going all in, asked a question in a chat, ran into a malfunctioning bot… i guess, i’ll wait…
How to get this notebook ?
👏👏👏🇧🇷
My favorite thing about this is the absolute shade she throws at Taylor Swift when she's like "now you can play basically every Taylor Swift song ever written." haha
can u play nothing gonna change fir yo my love
I do like her demeanor in the way she instructs but my greatest concern is not being able to play the piano with both hands at the same time. I know practice might solve the problem but I do have arthritis mostly in my ring and pinky finger so that might prevent me from learning to perform accurately. I do not have any type of piano but maybe I might buy one someday.
I got an Pianote ad on this video 😎
I got a Simply Piano ad 😓😓😓😓
