I feel like I learned more in 8 minutes than 5 years of secondary school music.
I agree, seriously I was thinking I wouldn’t learn anything, because it was so fast, however apparently it can happen. Keeps you interested in a way by him speaking fast verses slow. Everyone learns differently though. ❤️
Came here to say the exact same 😀
Absolutely the same feeling except I was learning with do, re, mi, fa….besides the A b c….
Yep I agree. Why don’t they explain this way, in addition to the theoretical . People see clarity in different ways.
Same here😆

Piano for Singer/Songwriters takes someone with zero piano experience and turns them into a piano wielding singer/songwriter. You’ll learn how to play basic and advanced chords (like 7 chords and slash chords). You’ll then learn how to play songs in different styles by using rhythm patterns (like the ballad, heartbeat, soft rock, and forward motion rhythm patterns).

Thank you! This is so helpful!
@smp It sounds like the chord progression from Mica’s, Happy Endings. https://youtu.be/pxA26LGI2Mc
Imagine this guy teaching you piano every week for a semester
Hey everyone, the best results that i’ve had was with the Turbo Piano Secret (i found it on google) definately the most helpful idea that I have ever tried.
And I would be pianist in no time.
I wouldn’t wish that fate on my worst enemy. Dude’s teaching is rushed and insufferable. There’s no clear way to tell what keys he’s pressing from the bird’s-eye viewpoint
LEVEL UP!
You are now the new Beethoven
Asmr heaven and would be a master in no time
Well he gets right to the point, teaches in a way anyone can learn really fast, this guy’s amazing.
This has been amazingly helpful for understanding and learning new chords in a quick and efficient way! Thank you so much for this comprehensive and super helpful video!💙💙💙💙
8 years of piano and i never knew what majors or minors were
@Local Toch hahaha I doubt that. 😂😂
SAME 😭
I formally practiced piano for 7 years as a child teacher always made me play out of these stupid little books 10 years later I’m picking it back up and realizing all the stupid tricks she didn’t teach me should have just thought my self
🤣🤣🤣
How
OMG… How come no one ever teaches this before?? It’s a struggle to memories all the chords especially if you don’t play the piano very often. These explanations make so much sense and easy to understand. Thank you so much!
Wow, learning from this teacher is not a waste of time at all. God continue to honour you Sir.
this taught me more music theory than the 5 years i took music theory with a teacher
Ikr
In my 7th year at piano and I learned soo much here too
Dayumm 😂
Well are you able to play the piano at least? If you’re able to read sheet music and play just fine then nothin wrong with missing out on some theory
You can’t replay
No words are enough to thank you ! You made it so,so easy to understand the chord formation.Now all I got to do is practice to learn it thoroughly.
Thanks once gain !
He sounds like he’s trying to speed run Piano lessons.
@Sianthor W I just had to slow mo to understand it but it worked
That’s how I like everything tho. Sped ran
And it worked
Too fast for me 😣
Nah, we’re all just trying to speed run learning the piano
What a lesson. I’ve learned more with you in less than 8 minutes than I’ve learned in the past years haha thanks!
This is one of the most informative and useful videos out there. Concise – to the point – and very well spoken. You are a really good teacher. A really good one. Thanks for making this video. I definitely learned a lot of excellent and important things from this video.
Very useful tips. May I ask you a question: are arpeggios
and chords constructed in the same pattern, but just played in different way ?
that is literally the most I have ever learnt about music in under 10 minutes. Genius. Thank you so much for giving such practical insights.
Short but helpful !! Thank you for this vdo
Such a brilliant class. Such a genius teacher!!! I appreciate your making this so easy. Thanks for the upload. It is timeless.
This is perhaps one of the best videos on chords that I have found on YouTube ! Simple and easy to follow and at the same time very informative ! I was trying to figure out how the notes for the chords are determined – when I googled, the explanations involved a lot of music theory which may not be very easy for a beginner to follow, but after going through this 8 min video, it all makes sense !
Thanks a lot for this !
This is so clear and concise, other tutorials assumed I already knew all of the prerequisite knowledge.
Why hello there checkmark
This is sooooo useful. I love how you condensed so much knowledge in a simple and brief video. Also you make everything so easy to grasp. You are a great teacher. Thank you
