Found you on youtube during my searching for new friends (i have just started)
I wanna share with you my latest vid with you - History of pop in 100 piano riffs - and also includes a music quiz, so you can test your music knowledge :)
Would appreciate your feedback as im just starting out and am trying to let as many see the video as possible
You are one of the rare piano videos online that actually teach useful piano. Most of the other piano lessons just teach people how to clip their toe nails
I like the Beatles and the 60s music. Can I incorporate your left hand arpeggios to sound like guitar fingerpicking on the piano and add the melody with the right hand?
i agree with the other posts here...thank you sir for REAL advice...am a fiddle player, looked around here for some teaching, looked at a LOT of videos, they have no idea and talk too much, you on the other hand actually teach...wonderful...thank you! :-)
Thank you so much for this. So many times I see videos of guys telling you to play an arpeggio, but they don't show you what the hell they're doing with them. Thanks for breaking it down for beginners.
Hi thanks for your lesson, i am looking for a left hand fingering for the fast arpeggios of Malaguena from Ernesto Lecuona...if someone can help... if you want I send you the part of the music sheet....
It's worth the effort, but it's not the *only* way to improve your technique. Improvement can also be achieved by simply playing more and more elaborate pieces - usually classical. Whatever you do, if you're serious - get a (good) teacher who'll oversee your progression and keep you going.
Dear Assaf, you have the most clever way of making piano theory and playing to be easily understood. I have benefited from your tuition better than most I have come across. Thanks a million. I cannot stop being excited. I better go and practice now. keep up the good work.
i think your lessons are brilliant, you have inspired me to take up piano which i think is a groovy thing dude. get some more lessons up, theyre awesome!
I am interested in learning fingering for double hand arpeggios for instance like the arpeggios used on Moonlight sonata 1st movement. what kind of fingering should I use if I was to ascend and descend both arpeggios for the left hand?
Whoops, I only saw your question now. For fingering, the best thing to do would be to follow Hanon's book of piano exercises, which has fingerings in its arpeggio exercises.
Hey Assaf, I'm from Nepal. It is very hard to find a good piano teacher around this part of the world: the net is indispensible. Really appreciate the videos.
Anyway, for the fingering part, is it Hanon's "Virtuoso Pianist" that you suggest or is it sth else by Hanon?
Hanon's "virtuoso pianist" works fine. For the best results, remember to practice daily - after talent, perseverance is the most important trait a budding pianist should have.
I'm a relative beginner and this video (aswell as your others) has helped me write more complex and diverse pieces that sound more interesting and full of life! Looking forward to the next video as always!
Thanks. I really like those arpeggios with the bass note going up the major scale, that sounds really nice, especially the chords with the major 3rd in the bass.

wrong way to explain inversions
taejoox89 1 year ago
@taejoox89 Yes, agreed. Root on bottom= root position, 3rd on bottom= 1st inversion, 5th on bottom=2nd inversion

What you are doing is taken C-major, F-major and G-major and breaken them up in all inversions which completes the C-major scale.
It is great lessons you give.
