You’ve done it again….enjoyable, concise and quite beautiful. Step-by-step, you show us how to make the sounds that we hear in popular music and add our own personality.
Love the approach of drawing from different instruments! I think Billy Joel applied this technique in ‘She’s Always a Woman’ which starts off with block chords before moving into an almost guitarist fingerpicking style pattern with the rolling effect you describe!
This is very inspiring because I tend to use my left hand as well as the right and the ears are be best verdict givers😄, yes is very useful, thank you for sharing🙂👏.
This is really useful information for me, thank you. As an aspiring songwriter and musician I found this most helpful to where I am in my musical journey. Great info.
I finally tried this technique on a different progression in key of C. (C G Am Em F C G F)....Wow, what an awesome exercise. Really changes how I think of inversions and really adds to creative improvisation. Thank you.
Great video! And always a nice fresh chord progression to practice with. Technically it's "boxing in the diad bc inside the box are just two notes 🤔 but potato patato...
Yep. Perfect lesson. Love the playing at the end with the chords listed at bottom as you play. Will download the PDF. The cut aways to comedic scenes are not necessary and are just a distraction that interups concentration. In my humble opinion. Great lesson as usual. Thank you so much! Took your survey sent to my email. Cant wait to learn more. 😊
I loved this - super fun. I can do it - BUT what I can't do - and would love to do - is apply this to songs ... would love a tutorial on that aspect - taking patterns and doing them on a number of different 4:4 songs.
Hi Elizabeth - thanks for this. A few people have said similar things - I’m going to do some UA-cam videos on this and then I’m also including this as a key feature of the online course being released in early 2025. Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks Adam! Would you be able to talk about the fingers you use when playing chords? For example, when playing right hand parts, I tend to use my thumb at the bottom of the chord; but I notice that you often use the pointer finger; which feels pretty uncomfortable to me. Just wondering what the logic is for that.
This is a great way to start the weekend! Thank you very much!! I am a long time guitarist and I love this hybrid style. And it's so hard to find a capo for the piano! Ha! Great share, Coach!!
Do you have a recommendation on the type of metronome? It sounds like the metronome you are using is able to accentuate on the beat? Have no experience with metronomes and I would love a referral if you could please. Thank you for doing such a great job in the online community,
There is definitely an amount of dirty chords (sets of dissonant sounds... a spectrum analyzer shows the matter in the best possible way) that is perfect to create and/or emphasize story critical/important places/points. However, musicians often get lost, overenjoying unusual and technically challenging finger/works, that results with tunes that cannot be remembered and/or much appealing to others. Stay simple and modest... there are many other ways to sound good than "wearing wrinkled and dirty clothes".
This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for. Thank you so much.

Thanks! Much appreciated!!
What a beautiful arrangement. Delightful harmonies.
Glad you enjoyed Graeme!

Ah yeah! Good spot Will! Love that song
This actually really helps me bridge the gap between guitar and piano, having learned guitar first. Great video 👏
12:28 hey, in piano it's called an apppogiatura. I like playing the non- chord/auxiliary note on the 2nd, 4th, and even the #7 sometimes!
You are the best piano player 💯💯💯♥️

Yes indeed that’s a hammer on. As a guitarist trying to learn piano, this lesson is so inspiring. Thank you!
Hello! Nice lesson again. Guitar names for the tecnique to go fast from one note to another can be both hammer on or pull off
Thanks for this video!!
This is really useful information for me, thank you. As an aspiring songwriter and musician I found this most helpful to where I am in my musical journey. Great info.

That was delightful! Your videos keep getting better and better!
Thank you so much!

Awesome! So glad you found it useful!
You are correct, it is called a "hammer-on." Thank you for the helpful video! 🙂
Thanks for the info!
You just keep on delivering, Ad! Thanks so much, more great ideas for melodies/accompaniment...so many ideas of yours to explore! 😃✊
Good one, Coach. Thanks.
You're welcome!
You are a great master.Many many thanks for the free great PDF.God Bless you forever.
Great video! And always a nice fresh chord progression to practice with.
Technically it's "boxing in the diad bc inside the box are just two notes 🤔 but potato patato...
Great stuff, thank you. I'm an old gospel organist that finds piano challenging.
Thank you soo much for this step by step guidance
Its really helpful
Looking forward to more such videos 🎉
My pleasure 😊
Perfect! Thank you for this. As one new to accompaniment, I need to break up my block chords.
Glad it was helpful!
Great tutorial Adam , this may take some time for me to achieve but I'll thoroughly enjoy the process 😄😄

excellent! thanks for the tips!
A good source for more patterns from 19 century guitar repertoire, is the 150 right hand studies by Mauro Giuliani
❤❤❤❤Thank you so much sir very useful ❤❤❤❤❤
This is a great way to start the weekend! Thank you very much!! I am a long time guitarist and I love this hybrid style. And it's so hard to find a capo for the piano! Ha! Great share, Coach!!
Thanks Ted!
I needed that
Thanks for this (I keep waiting for that last C to resolve to G)
Yes, it's called a hammer-on. The opposite is a pull-off when the notes descend. 😃
Awesome - thanks Carl!
🔥
I love the hammer on on the Piano. But can you please tell me, why is the C chord working in the key of D since D has C# in it?
It's a flat 7 chord - it's used a lots of styles of music and sounds great! Hope that helps!

Not one in particular - there are some great apps available. The one by Soundbrenner is the one I use. Thanks!!
I have a difficult time using octaves in my chords, so I just add the second or the fourth note of the chord.
Please try using common songs which are known and add their titles
What is the overall template for this progression?
you call it hammer
Sounds a lot like Jim Brickman style.

Fully agree! Its great to add a 9, 11 or 13 now and then but not in every song and not all the time.
No right or wrong. But you can immediately hear when it’s not “right”…
Thanks!
