I love that you use the theory numbers (one and five in LH) and you teach the counting. Thank you for posting. best of all to you in your classes. You are an amazing teacher!! Love the graphics too. Very helpful!!

    After not playing for 16 years you inspired me to go out and purchase a piano, just today I bought. You cost me $3000 dollars. Back to the drawing board for me. Great video.

    This is so incredibly helpful Jonny. Shortly after I started taking lessons I got bored and my piano teacher gave me Ragtime and Boogie-Woogie. I thrived after that. This intro is going to kick it up another notch. I plan on doing your complete course after I master this. Thanks Jonny.

    Heh, I was playing piano in music school for about 6 years, 15 years ago... All that moonlight sonatas, Chopin etudes and much more. It was soo easy back then.
    And now I'm struggling with connecting left with right hand on this one... ^^

  • @manuelvalera959
    @manuelvalera959 5 років тому +2

    There are several ideas for how to learn piano
    Try practicing for an hour each day, or even 30 minutes if you are very busy.
    Do extra practice whenever you can. For example, on weekends you can do more than 1 hour, maybe two or 3, or even more. This is useful because it pulls you out of the routine of piano playing, and lets you practice more and perfects the pieces you play.
    (I read about these and more from Denelle Piano Lesson site )

    Thank you for all of your free lessons, Jonny. They are very much appreciated and you are a great teacher. Just to clarify, is the right hand lick at 10.51 as follows : F# slide to GC chord-C octave lower-FA chord-EbG(A) chord-Eb slide to EG chord-(C) G octave lower-F-Eb-E-F#slide to GC chord. Hope this makes sense to you :-)

    • @martialway100
      @martialway100 9 років тому

      pianowithjonny On review of the vid., I think the C is omitted and the EbGA chord is also played. Sounds similar :-) Will definitely be buying the Latin / Cuban, Rock n Roll & Blues courses. It's never too late to improve, if one practises regularly. Thank you for your help.

    the one thing I wish these rock n roll tutorials told me about from the beginning is the importance of playing staccato. I got so used to slurring notes and pressing the pedal that I just can't make this sound the way it's supposed to, even with no pedal.
    So if you're a beginner, keep this in mind!

    What is yours? It sounds great!
    Should I get something with gazillions of sounds or spend the $s on getting the best possible keyboard.

    • @JonnyMay
      @JonnyMay  10 років тому

      Thanks Harry. I always prioritize the quality of the keyboard over the samples... You can always hook up a keyboard to your computer and download new instruments through your DAW. Get a realistic feeling keyboard with weighted keys. Yamaha's are good! Mine is a Yamaha P90. Old model but it does the job.

    Hi, Jonny. I'm glad I found your video. It's amazing! I'd like to know if it's ok to play the left hand pattern while playing along with a bassist or the pianist must keep a simple piano arrangement for his / her left hand. Thanks in advance for your answer. Greetings from Brazil.

    • @JonnyMay
      @JonnyMay  8 років тому +1

      Great question! Yes, generally you can play the left hand with a bass player. The only time I wouldn't recommend it is if the bass player was playing other chords or if they were playing a bass line that doesn't match the piano. But most bass lines in this style will work with the left hand that you're playing.

    • @RobsonNogueira29
      @RobsonNogueira29 8 років тому +3

      I see! I'm gonna work on the left hand pattern and check out more videos of yours. Thanks once again.
