If you got confused, He is using the chord progression 1-4-5 meaning 1 is the root note meaning if your in the key of C then C is the root or 1. Next, 4 is the fourth note in any scale. In C major that is F. The 5 is the fifth note in any scale. In C major that is G. So a 1-4-5 chord progression just means C-F-G.
@TheToken420247 That's a great explanation. I'm a beginning pianist but have played trumpet for several years. Learning the scales, although boring, is the easiest way to learn.
I LOVE YOU!! Seriously I do.....I love the piano and while I am learning it I come to youtube for inspiration and you give me support in my theory classes and everything. THANK YOU!
You're positioning on the chords is too complicated. It would be easier if you used a basic 1-3-5 chord. I'm trying to learn about chord progression, not trying to figure out how you're even constructing a base chord with 5 or 6 fingers!
@rjslade completley agreed, you cant run before you walk, using the simple triadic position of 1-3-5 and moving from then into different inversions or fingerings would be the best way to go, this guy is a tosser
@Alexiaden93 Have you never heard of 1-3-5 placement? It's a form of playing chords. Your question is a misdirection; a good instructor of entry level subjects starts with basics and builds from there.
@rjslade 1-3-5 as in the chord note, the third and the fifth ? I can't see how it makes the subject any more advanced. I mean you just play the same three notes, if you want a three note chord, in whatever order you want, with as many fingers as you want. And I do believe having some form of chord knowledge, at least the basic type you mentioned, is a prerequisite for learning chord progressions. You can't blame the teacher, he probably has other videos on chords specifically.
I suggest to anyone here having trouble 1st to learn all the notes on the keyboard, then the basic major and minor scales, which there is a formula for. Learn about semi tones and whole tones, which is way easier than memorizing as i am learning.
@Zombiedevice il presume that you know your chords and you variations if not practice them ! and then have a look at chains of chords that fit that's basically what this is dont bother with augmented and suspended chords until you need to because although there not hard at all but it can get confusing if your just starting out so lern your chords and scales ect. then just mess about with them and see what you can get thats the whole fun of it good luck ;)
These lessions are not for beginners.. I am completely lost.. I am back to Andrews Piano series. I will comeback here once i learn something about piano from Andrews lessions. :)

Major, 4 semitones first then 3 and minor 3 semitones first then 4. Example C major CEG, C minor CD#G. That's how I learned it.

Thanks for taking the time for creating and uploading this.
Id say this is intermediate though and certainly not for a beginner.
Why do you use two hands to play one triad? I can't keep track of all your fingers.
