  • Love your comment "Practise with emotion always try your best to get better." There are so many people who forget that

  • Thanks for bringing that out with your comment :)

  • HEYYY I MET YOU IN THE PARKKKKKK

  • huh?

  • my issue is i have mercury retrogade so i can't learn anything the first time so i m watching all your lessons once without much practicing then im going to go back and rewatch them all and practice starting then. so im lost still on fingering and stuff =(

  • just wanted to let you know that your video posting your time dedication and talent is VERY much appreciated and taken advantage of it i hope u continue and i wish u great success in all you do and thank you again

  • Thank god I found you page, this knowledge is indispensible to me. I began piano as a child and circumstances lead to my not being able to play. I have a craving in side to learn how to play correctly, I've been teaching myself to play again by ear but what I play sounds so simple and has no texture. I'm trying to get the theory as I know this will unlock the ability to add texture and depth and style to my play. Your vids are amazing i'm going to learn so much from them thankyou!!

see all

  • doing the formula patterns for me is harder with the f#minor/gbminor and also the c#minor/dbminor scales

  • @johnnyhanx hii...lets say you're playing Cmajor scale with your right hand, then while you are about to finish the octave on the next C, instead of placing your pinky finger there, use your thumb and then straightaway get to play more octaves, as many as u like, in the same way you play one octave! :)

  • When i practice my scales I start (let's use C) at c and go to c one octave up then back down. I see here you travel up through more than one octave then down through more than one. Please explain the proper fingering for practicing like this, it looks really fun and sounds great but you go so fast I can't catch the fingering

  • Great Tips! Thanks for the help.

  • I like your teaching technique but would appreciate it if you would forego with the hyperbole and shorten the video

  • @Lypur Some scales have not so obvious fingering, for example, i know that B minor looks pretty simple, but I play with a different fingering every time with my left hand ....

    do you know where can I get a piano book of scales with all the fingering?

    thank u for your lessons, they're good ....

  • poor cat, feed it! lol

  • lesson 35 and now your telling us what kind of instructor we should have :P

  • @alexcori2217 I thumb down this
