You uploaded this video 4 years ago, and I can't thank you enough. The last few months, I started playing in a church where hymns are sung every Sunday. Not knowing how to approach hymns makes me discouraged sometimes but I'm so thankful I found your video. God bless you! I hope you keep sharing your knowledge. You're really eloquent 😊
I took piano lessons for 6mos when I was 10. 20 years later, I developed bad habits and have never really progressed. Now I truly want to be capable of playing the piano with the goal of being able to play Hymns. The problem is, playing all 4 notes together all at the same time is very hard for me. And I thought that playing the chords is an escape/excuse for me to not learn to sight-read. But this video just gave me a new light. My goal is to be able to play Hymns for church. And if it makes it easier for me to do some sight-reading with chords, then why not. Thanks for this. This inspired me to learn and practice both sight-reading and chords.
JQ. Lovely Video clip! Apologies for the intrusion, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Dinanlinson Detox System Approach (search on google)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for revealing the secret to master the piano minus the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my close friend Aubrey got amazing results with it.
Thanks for sharing this chord progression for hymns, being a pianist in our church sometimes I hardly dealt with chord progressions, May God bless you more Peter.
Thanks for the great content that you put out. Praise God. I would like to know what kind of passing chords to use while playing hymns when going from I chord, say from the end of a verse, to I chord again at the start of the refrain??? Thanks in advance.
As a guitar player trying to tackle this very problem - I came to a similar conclusion. All those little old ladies who swear they only read music and don't play by ear are LYING. They're just reading a fancy chord chart cleverly disguised as a two staff chart. They are NOT playing the vocal parts written in the book - the good ones are already doing this.
This is the style of hymn playing that I like and fancy so much, however, this tutorial did not assist anymore than add to the confusion I currently have. Yes I am able to read music as I am in possession of the ABRSM grade 5.
I am sorry, I am not your cheerleading section, there is nothing wrong with playing Hymns traditionally. If you have to jazz it up, maybe your technique needs work.
Why not link us to your instructional videos on playing the hymns strictly as they are suggested in the hymnal (by the way hymnals can differ) instead of throwing cold water on the appreciation we choose to give to a young man being so generous with his time? The tongue is a brutal little beast…hard to tame.
I taught myself to play from chords after learning to read by note. It has definitely helped. Thank you for your video

Thank you Zay!
Exactly my favourite style of piano playing! I wish you were here with us to teach me how to do this. Please assist...
Thank you so much! I’ve never been taught how to work out chord from base note - and explaining the passing notes.
Glad to find something new to show!
Thank you I always learning something new. Like the song, may God Bless you always
I feel like I just got a bit of a grasp! I play by ear-I’m going to practice what you said. I’m trying!!
Cool! How can I help you more with playing hymns?

You sing real good
Thanks John :-)
This is a great video but for those who can read music sheets it's best to show the cords before playing the song all through....
Oh he can sing sing..... Caught me guard
Haha, thanks Sydney
Beautiful
Do you change up your playing when using an organ sound? Or can you play the same way as you played during the overview?
Thank you ❤️ God bless you
Thank you Lara, you as well :-)

Hi. Thank u for this. I just want to know if you're teaching online?
Sorry for the late reply. My online teaching is just through my Fluent Piano courses at the moment. 🙏
Thank you very much Sir...
Much Love from Nigeria..
Thank you, Precious, love right back to you!
@OurWorshipSound Can I play Hymns with this style on a 61Keys Keyboard? or I need an 88Key to play Hymns?
61 keys is fine for this.

God bless
Trust in Jesus Christ as your savior to save you for eternity!
👏👏👏👏
I like your cheerful attitude. I just need you to provide more detail. You're playing six or seven notes at a time.
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I see this and I’m very discouraged. I need a piano istructor who can unlock my brain
Hymns are not easy - start with some simple chord progressions :-)
Way too fast too see what you are doing.
