As a life long self-taught musician I really appreciate your videos. While I’m able to play anything I hear by ear I was never taught any of the fundamentals, so a lot of the “basic” or common sense lessons you teach are extremely valuable to me...you really are a terrific teacher. Thank you!
Jonny I have to say a big THANKYOU! I am a conservatory trained pianist and have a degree in music.....BUT I have always believed that there was an element of creativity that was missing and simplicity that is so very missed in the classical training. THANK YOU again and looking forward to more of your videos. P.S. I am going to look through the eyes of a pure beginner and enjoy the process :) :) :)
Kelly, I agree. I've been taught piano, trumpet, and guitar, but I have never been taught this kind of stuff that is fun, and helps us to express ourselves fluently.
Nobody will teach you creativity and improvisation, it has either been there from birth or it is not there. The improvisation is not a thoughtless run over the notes of a chord. Improvisation is a construction more interesting than the topic.
Jonny, I have been playing guitar and writing songs on guitar a long time, but started writing songs with piano about a year ago. Your lessons are the best I've seen... by far. Love your work!
"Make sure you're landing your lines", that's great advice that will help me with guitar soloing as well! It's easy to get carried away and lose the 1. Thanks for the videos, I've watched a dozen, they're excellent!
waw, you put the basic of musicality...beautiful sound.! When you add simplicity, it's genius of musicality. I always enjoy your approach and selection of improvisation.
Jonny, after a short while of playing such a simple 2 chord progression, I can't help but feel like I'm being cliche. Do you have some advise on how to avoid that and elaborate on the chords without overcomplicating it?
Love this lesson and the simplified way you teach…can you continue with these types and include some blues and funk for beginning to play in these styles
Just to let you know that I have included the link to this CZcams in the *** Help With Playing *** Section on my International Facebook Group "Home Organist And Keyboard Players" I hope this will help my members and generate interest on you courses Jonny. Happy New Year. Robin.
Wow Jonny great Video. I am a beginner in the piano game and excited to learn. I have a Yamaha p45 digital piano. It has 8 sounds and one of them is the standard Grand Piano Sound of course. Is this digital piano suitable for playing Jazz, Blues etc. or do I need a special keyboard for that? I would be very thankful if someone who has more experience than me could give me an answer :)

This is just brilliant! You explain the details so clearly and simply 😁
waw, you put the basic of musicality...beautiful sound.! When you add simplicity, it's genius of musicality. I always enjoy your approach and selection of improvisation.
U teach many stuff that 99% of the pianists don't teach. And the way u teach is fantástic. U are gifted by God. A beast of a piano player.
Jonny, terrific video. You are the best. Started piano at 68. Learning every day.
this video is like gift. THANK you sir!
Sir, YOU are THE MAN! You make it seem so simple as long as we have the recipe. I am inspired!
I have been a member for about a year and these videos are like a little gift in a box. Open it up..its so fun. Thanks for sharing your talent.
You are so welcome!
Jonny, after a short while of playing such a simple 2 chord progression, I can't help but feel like I'm being cliche. Do you have some advise on how to avoid that and elaborate on the chords without overcomplicating it?
Thank you! Such a simple, but super-useful lesson. I changed the G in the C7 chord to a D, thought it sounded a notch better.
Great lesson thank you
Thank you so much...you made it look so easy but sounding great...you made me smile and giggle! Yeah!
Beautiful sound. One of your best sounding video IMHO. Many thanks.

Magnificent as always! Are the "MASTER GRIPS" suggested for C major (with the notes 1,2,5,7) applicable to all major scales? Thank you, best regards.
I really love this video
you know sir,

Top de mais irmão
¡Bravo! Gracias
One of the best lesson for people like me
Glad I could help!
nice tip. thanks. which keyboard do you use?

Really great. Thx :)
Glad you liked it!
That’s great! But I have one question, how can’t I apply it on different chord progression and swing it?
I would pressume you can quite easy transpose it to diffrent keys, would be the same result :)
when i improv the scale i end up just playing by ear rather than acknowledging what im doing
Can’t believe that’s just F major, haha. Thanks for the lesson.
I like his right hand.
👍😍
Hey Jonny, get a piano stall already!!!
Wow Jonny great Video. I am a beginner in the piano game and excited to learn. I have a Yamaha p45 digital piano. It has 8 sounds and one of them is the standard Grand Piano Sound of course. Is this digital piano suitable for playing Jazz, Blues etc. or do I need a special keyboard for that? I would be very thankful if someone who has more experience than me could give me an answer :)
I think digital pianos are very suitable for jazz, blues, etc. I'm using a Yamaha CP4
Hi Johnny do i have to read the notes , i know how but slow , beautiful
how many tempo , tks
Beautiful sound no 2 triad skip
While this is simple idea.
What he isn't tell you is the hours and hours of practice required in order to play on the level he is playing.
Кассно!
i can play the chords but my fingers dont move fast enough to improv like that.
Very happy 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
I'm Alone 😍😥
Come on bro. There was at least a splash of chromaticism.
Woow woow 😍💋 💝💖❤️
