what a great lesson. i've watched it a couple times. do you have any specific lessons on developing one's own right hand fills combining with the left hand movement? would this be more in your 4 chord course?
It does come from practice, playing other people's music by ear but knowledge of chords and progressions will help and yes, my course does cover that to some extent :)
Thanks for this but you move too fast and assume we know too much. I would like to learn 5 of these patterns, starting slowly and building up from there rather than learning loads of songs. Im still figuring out how to play chord inversions together in a sequence. So thats the first step, then add the patterns in. Then practice and speed it all up. Thanks for the content
Hi MediaBrighton. Sorry about that. I create most of my videos for other teachers to use with students so I do presume a fair bit of competence. I'll think about whether I can break these down into individual videos and work more slowly. Thanks for following!
Please stop saying he’s mucking around. I’m sure he doesn’t see it that way. There are endless choices on how to play chords. It’s not ‘mucking around’. 🤦🏽♂️
Thanks again, Tim! Your ability to provide relevant content and break it down beautifully is fantastic. Kudos!
My pleasure!
More Elton videos please!
Glad you like them. Got 3 more coming
Fabulous technique tutorial
Thank you so much 😊
The hard part is the timing and rhythm.
You are so right!! It looks simple but it really isn't... 😮
I love Tiny Dancer.
Me too!

This fantastic Tim, thank you! Is there an easy/intermediate piano book by Elton John currently that you could recommend?
I quite like this series: amzn.to/3fXx8WV and also this one: amzn.to/3fXx8WV
The book he's using is still around. I recently bought one from Amazon.
Nice find john!
Cool piano
Thanks meek
I want to learn how to make the changes en second grade !

Sure - perhaps "improvising" is a better word.
