Thanks for the tips. Can't make 10th but can roll to same pretty well now w/ a lot of practice. Have devel. some tendon discomfort since over-practicing a chromatic scale in maj. thirds. You have nice improv. chops.
Hi Peter. Does this song have a name or is it a sequence you developed for improvisation? If the song has a name and composer, could you let me know? Thank you so much. The idea of the 2 minute tutorials is fantastic. Congratulations and thank you for sharing with the poor mortals who try to play piano as beautifully as you do. João from Brazil.
Question. When practicing with my left hand I have trouble with getting my ring and middle fingers between the black keys when using voicings that extend past the octave range. What do you suggest or recommend? Mind you, my fingers are, I guess what you'd call normal sized. BTW this is a recent issue as in I didn't have this challenge 20 years ago but just since getting back on the piano after years of being off. Thanks in advance.
Hi Martin, this is Kai from Hong Kong. I have some trouble when practicing and i want to ask for your advice. How can you elaborate such great idea while you are improvising. Is that your original stuff that pop up in your mind when you are jamming? Or some licks from others or...i dont know. I tried to transcript bunch of licks from those jazz and blues and even funk master. But it doesnt seems work cuz it had different tempo, rhythm, phrasing, and even the key and the fingering from what i had transcript while i am jamming with others. So i tried to play whatever i want. But there are nothing more than scale and arppegio straight forward up and down. It makes me seem so....lame. So can you give me some advice how should i practice for enrich my vocabularies and phrasing? Best regard and sorry for my bad english Kai.
Hi Peter, and thanks for your very cool videos. Love your simple yet satisfying left hand comps. Had a question though. At around 2:24 you play some chord fragments. Then do some amazing stuff with contrary (2:27), then parallel (2:30) motion with both hands to end the phrase. Would love if you could talk more about that stuff :-)
This is great for when the chords change on each beat. What are you doing when the chord lasts the entire measure? I see you are not hitting the exact same chord 4 times!!
UA-cam gem right here.
that piano sure sounds wonderful
Thank you so much for including the second camera showing the keys! Makes it a whole lot easier to understand!
If I could play like Peter Martin, I would really enjoy hearing myself.
I agree.
I'm really getting inspired by these. Short and sweet. This is a mandatory practice if you solo and wanna sound hip Get busy!
I am really glad to see your video again on my feed. Great tip!
Love your videos, a joy to watch.
🇧🇷 This is a video that I.ve ever needed. Thank you for share us this gift!

I think that this method will help me to practice very good on ballads songs
Thanks for the tips. Can't make 10th but can roll to same pretty well now w/ a lot of practice.

Can you share some advice on those of us who cannot reach big intervals with our left hand?
you got new suscriber:)
Bravo maestro - absolute inspiration!! Where can I get your CD? MUST HAVE IT
Hi Peter, thanks for another great video ! How much pedal do you use to make the left hand sound so continuous ?
Hey Pete love your work, is there an exercise that you may have to combined scales and broken chords/arpeggios? I want my line
to sound more diverse.
Peter do you think if I continue to watch your tutorials I could do what you done and this particular video
very Oscar Peterson like version - wonderful.

Hi what's the chord progression of this ballad left hand?
what is the bit of music at the end from?
thanks, will check that out when I get sound back on my laptop!
This is great for when the chords change on each beat. What are you doing when the chord lasts the entire measure? I see you are not hitting the exact same chord 4 times!!
Is this 2-5-1?
Wow Peter you so damn hot pianist
I took a trip on a train
and I thought about left hand technique
hahah right!
I can reach all minor 10ths, some major 10ths (white key to white key) but (white to black) or (black to white) major 10ths are beyond my reach...
I can't play the tenth, please kill me
