He's hysterical and I can't believe he's still trying to teach YOU of all people how to play right....maybe the poor soul doesn't hear properly ....keep on doing boogie Dr. K. 😎🎼🎶🎶🎹🤗😘❤🇨🇦🙏
That old guy was adorable. His face when Brendon just played the hell outta the piano was so funny. I think it’s super sweet the older guy stopped to try and help someone else. Great video all around.
So representative of life. We get so bogged down with technicalities and detail, that we miss the genius. LOVING these videos. Your playing gives me goosebumps.
He's a lovely man. He is only trying to help Brendan read music. Many classical trained musicians do think that by reading music one can play anything, so he is trying to help him expand his talent. I wouldn't mind having him as my teacher. For improvisation skills and rhythmic I would definitely go for Dr K, though. They would complement each other nicely.
To Mr. Kavanagh , I don't know if you read the comments or not , but just wanted to say to you , "Bravo sir !" . You handled this so well you showed off as you do , and as you were you could see on the old mans face a look as if he was about to question his own abilities and life work as a teacher who was being bested by what he thought was someone who just wanted to learn a bit . You showed him up , but then at at the end you asked for sugestion from him and allowed him to continue to feel relevant . That Sir was one of the kindest acts of humanity that I have seen in quite some time . Yes "BRAVO" for sure .
I enjoyed this. There are those like Brendan who have this mystic way of playing anything in a way that is beyond the comprehension of us dot readers, but I found myself laughing at how the dot reader was more concerned with how the sheet music wasn't followed. That's what we are like. We dont understand improvisation. We play by reading shapes. He wasn't saving face, he remained concerned that brendan hadn't read the music
I started teaching myself piano about 5 years ago. After about 3 years I decided to have some lessons. By this point had no technique but I have a good ear and was quite good. Woman I went to was like this guy, had zero interest in what level I was and what I had done before. She wanted to have me go right from the beginning and spent about an hour showing me to put my thumb on c and play with one finger. It was at that point t I said sod this and didnt go back. I am still teaching myself, writing music and learning by ear and getting better and most importantly enjoying which unfortunately teachers like this and mine make it very hard to do
I couldn’t agree more! Also who wants to play very simple boring songs? I want to at least try learn the harder to play songs but at least when I make progress with them complex songs I’m enjoying it and impressed with myself haha!
A great piano player. whether by ear or music or the crazy boggie woggie.... you're one of the best Piano players I've ever heard play. Thanks for posting.
I play piano by ear too. I also taught myself to read the notes to a certain extent. Mom finally gave in & took me to a piano teacher. I frustrated the hell out of that poor ol' man. I also fascinated the hell out of him cuz he couldn't figure out HOW I could do what I could do. Eventually he finally gave up attempting to formally teach me anything. I couldn't get "timing" unless he played the piece, can't do it the normal way. Once he chucked the "formal" stuff, we had fun together he & I clear up until he retired. After that, no piano teacher would even attempt to teach me. I see a lot of my ol' teacher in this man's face as he watches you play.
OMG that was so funny. There's a moment where he realizes that you know what you are doing but he just has to save face... And yeah, that piano was terribly out of tune. Thanks for changing keys, Dr K!
Brendan you constantly tease some of these people ....it's actually quite funny to watch their reactions to you....especially the ones who keep on trying to instruct you how to play 🎼🎶🎶🎹😘🤗❤🇨🇦
The older man obviously acknowledged that Brendan can play, his eyes lit up when he started to improvise. He was merely "helping him" read, which Brendan falsely admitted he couldn't do, so he was just stating out in the end the obvious roots of learning, the key positions, and what the time durations for each symbol. Most people commenting on the older man's "proudness" are the ones to proud to acknowledge that ANY MUSICIAN, specially those that only play by ear, could also keep learning more and more if they knew how to read music. Its a great tool to learn. Cheers and God bless.
Brendan what a wonderful sound I would love for you to play that Amazing Grace version again. I’m sure people will stop to listen because it’s a Super sound, thanks for the video!
Learning the blue scales and blues cords and have C chord and E Chord and A Chord and one grandmother played by sheet music and training and the other played by ear but the classically trained one also played by ear and later went blind so I actually think I am “possede” when I played with my eyes closed the other night I relaxed. And found you listen better.
I was looking at some recent Brendans videos and impressed. And for some reason, the title caught my eyes and visited this. This truly made me laugh so loud! And Brendan bro, you are amazing piano player. You can play many song in your own creative ways. This teacher is truly funny. After all Brendan played, he was trying to make correction on how to play it. A real good video and would make everybody laugh!
WOW! He caught on quick! The old guy is quite the teacher.
k w 😂😂😂😂😂
@@hopefilledsinner3911 , he'll never get anywhere! ;-)

Ha! Ha!!
What a nice man to take the time to help a UPS guy trying to learn piano. I wanna buy him a beer and a good cigar.
UPS guy lmao
Lol not healthy but still with good intentions
Can i get that?
@@OriasX sure buddy that'll be 4.50 a pint
"I'll be here this time next week if you want another lesson" 🤣😂👊
🤣🤣🤣
Love british humor ❤️❤️❤️😂
is this Johnny sins
@@markopolo2224 oh no. Here we go again🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The best teacher ever! 2 minutes and Brendan is playing not so bad for his age and skill!
Ok, the guy watched you play and STILL thinks you need pointers? Frightening.
Puddled
Clueless 😂
as SOON as he played two notes together with hands in chord and timing.. the cat's out of the bag 1:35
Pride is really frightening
You can't imagine how common it is... On ALL topics.
It's called Dunning Kruger effect.
2:33 the moment when teacher concluded that his student knows more than him
Now: That moment when you decide to comment and then scroll down and see someone else made the exact same comment already.
that moment was priceless
So glad Dr. K was humble enough to not make the kind elderly gentleman feel foolish. He left it on a win-win for both parties.
Yes, he has a good heart.
"Is something out of tune?"
Transposes the music to avoid the mis-tuned key.
Epic.
Great hint, I didn't notice that the first time, thanks! That guy is just brilliantly flexible!!
All he did was modulate up
@@yumarenegades4606 part of your daily routine...............
@@jpeterman9699 daamnn
Suzy Siviter I play Saxophone and I didn’t notice it either. I don’t know a damn thing about piano.
He's hysterical and I can't believe he's still trying to teach YOU of all people how to play right....maybe the poor soul doesn't hear properly ....keep on doing boogie Dr. K. 😎🎼🎶🎶🎹🤗😘❤🇨🇦🙏
I love Dr K❤
He told you off about your fingering, but no mention of Bashing The Piano !!! That was Amazing Dr.K
My delivery is going to be late today! Thanks Brendan!
It was his 1hr lunch break. Delivery would've still been on time
😁

*I CAN'T PLAY WITH THE DOTS*
I'm dead😂
Well done Dr. K. You killed me!👏👏
I guess it was Steve Vai in late 70ies or early 80ies who popularized the notion of DOTS in the guitar circles. He actually called them dots.
I don't do the dots, carry on man 😂
„I can’t play with the dots“
- every rock guitar player ever
I really like that old guy...
😂😂👍👍👏👏👏🤗
So representative of life. We get so bogged down with technicalities and detail, that we miss the genius. LOVING these videos. Your playing gives me goosebumps.
He just wants you to put your thumb on C!
as bayraklari as as
@@ataavrupada6847 niye la
What does the thumb on C mean?
Lol
I’d normally use my middle finger for C...😉
So that’s why Dr K can’t find middle C - he’s been using the wrong finger!
I came for boogie woogie but i didn't get boogie nor woogie
Sounds like you got woogie boogied
Came for boogie woogie
Left with the finger in the nuggie
Zarrotice 😂
You such a good actor Brendon

Sorry,
Just a wake
Ken is thinking.....what the hell just happened?........probably still thinking that when he has his Cocoa tonight
This is my favourite of your videos Dr K...The looks on both your faces are priceless.

I wouldn't mind having him as my teacher. For improvisation skills and rhythmic I would definitely go for Dr K, though. They would complement each other nicely.
Man… it was just a prank. He is a professional. Crazy good musician. He knows how to read and play improvised and everything else you can think
That was one of your prettiest pieces yet!
amazing grace is hardly little known!

whats the song called?
2:44, the look of "I've been pranked". Of course he plays along with the joke as can be seen towards the end. Good sport he is.
3:42 - 4:22 the most Amazing 40 seconds of the whole UA-cam music
Best teacher ever! Look how fast Dr K caught on.
LOL, I'll see you this time next week with another lesson lol Very kind man!
That guy thought you needed lessons? Knowing chords and improvising is far harder than just reading music imo
Three
Oh wait, in that case there are four chords.
@@theexplodingmothfromhell8012 um there are definitely more than 3 chords.
@@chrisvalenzuela7911 Ah yes, but are there in fact more than three?

You played beautifully. He thought u still needed instructions. Lol
It was good to see that you played along with him.. I thought for sure, you gonna Rock it Up for him.. LOL
Im here next week if you want another lesson hahaha. Done me proper. Classic
imagine if brendan didn't know how to play, theyd be there all day with thumb on C. lol
KiNGxLua 😂😂😂😂
Beautiful version of Amazing Grace. Loved it!! Can't get over the older gent telling you how to play after that beautiful piece, lol.
Amazing Grace, ww!!!, my favorite Hymn. Thank you Brendan. May I request HOW GREAT THOU ART
Wow...that man was an amazing teacher
A great piano player. whether by ear or music or the crazy boggie woggie....
you're one of the best Piano players I've ever heard play. Thanks for posting.
I think the old guy needs some pointers on.. BOOGIE WOOGIE ❤️
2:38 moment of realisation is priceless
Aaaawwwww Ken is a superstar. Love him.........come back next week if you want another lesson🥰
I think Ken was making his own youtube video there and he was playin’ you Brendan ;-)
You just never know... but as an American (North American, LOL) and an amateur musician, I really enjoy a bit of British wit! 😁
Hats off to you Brendan for taking the time to give the old guy his dues.
2:36 the guy realises he's been bamboozled
And nobody notices that the 'student's' touch already is superb...🤣🤣🤣

TheNanaGamer I’m pretty sure Brenden can follow the dots just fine.
Brilliant laughed and smiled so much.
2:45 the sounds u hear when you open the gates of heaven
Brendan you are awesome! God I love your personality and your way of playing music! It moves me ;-)
2:38 the face when finally he realizes: "What the hell, this guy can play!"
But he can't read!
Beautiful song.....
OMG that was so funny. There's a moment where he realizes that you know what you are doing but he just has to save face... And yeah, that piano was terribly out of tune. Thanks for changing keys, Dr K!
Brendan: Plays Boogie Style Amazing Grace
Teacher: *PUT YOUR THUMB THERE !*

who could knew that Harry Truman could play Amazing Grace
Teacher: You still need a lot of work
Brendan: FML!
One of the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

allways a pleasure to watch you doing your tricks :)
"Put your thumb there" is a conversation I sometimes have, but never at the piano.
same 👌🏻😎🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Two deliveries on the same day! 🎹📬
Both of these two Irish Seniors are absolutely great and adorable.
Amazing grace. Amazing God given talent 👌
Beautiful!
Great job Dr K. Amazing Grace!
i was just like "when does the boogie woogie come in??"
Such a sweet man/tune.
Thank you!
Mr Kavanagh, you found the right teacher....!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
We all got punked by the piano tuner... 🤣🎹🤣🎹🤣
Well played, musically and acting wise! My favorite hymn.
ah God bless the 'ol guy Brendan....."i didn't get the dots right"
haha
Best one yet👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
the moment he realized he'd had the wool pulled over him :)
Excellent par Excellent. The piano sounded great too !
Brendan what a wonderful sound I would love for you to play that Amazing Grace version again. I’m sure people will stop to listen because it’s a Super sound, thanks for the video!
Haha, the look of shock on his face when he realized you can play!
I need more amazing grace. Please take me to church. Best song of all time.
I think the elder is keying on trying to teach Brendan to read sheet music, due to Brendan’s insistence that he cannot do so.
You always hear about postal workers going nuts and shooting up the place. If the world made any sense it would be piano teachers.
I love when BK breaks down into some hard boogie-woogie! hahaha 🤓 that's me!
Brendan if you can play fully Amazing Grace, like Terry without interruption, everyone will be thrilled, thank you in advance and we love you!
You are THE best pianist EVER
slightly too unfair that one
sounds beautiful
You should have said "THIS MAN IS THE BEST TEACHER EVER!!!!!!!!"
Learning the blue scales and blues cords and have C chord and E Chord and A Chord and one grandmother played by sheet music and training and the other played by ear but the classically trained one also played by ear and later went blind so I actually think I am “possede” when I played with my eyes closed the other night I relaxed.

...and the student became the teacher.
A favorite song and pretty funny when the teacher realized he’d been played
Hilarious, the old guy still thinks that you were doing it wrong. HA! God Bless him!

the disguise mode is back ! lol what brought You to the dance dude! like the scruffy look, awesome!
Love Dr. K
Amazing Grace, one of the choke you up sonngs when it's performed well :)
A classic! Thanks Brendan. ;)
The look on his face when he realised that you CAN play! 😂😂😂
Such a sweet man! He doen't really realise - even if dr K. plays with 10 fingers...
I like when you do other genres, you're very talented.
