    Amazing tutorial, probably the best I've ever seen about boogie woogie!! 👏Blues and Boogie are the reasons I started lerning piano. Great!

    When I was young my grandmother was my piano tutor, she would smack my fingers, when I got it wrong so I gave up at 13 and never went back. I have always loved all kinds of music and encouraged my son and daughter who is a music teacher to learn the piano which she does well but is an awesome drummer👍
    I am turning 64 next week and have challenged myself to learn to play the piano again, starting with the left and right hand full scale and venturing into the 12 bar blues Boogie-woogie style as I've always loved the rhythm.
    Thank you for the videos 🎹

    At 72 I'm taking up the piano and have been bouncing around youtube with a bunch of boogie woogie videos - but this one is the one I keep coming back to that actually lets me play something without getting too far ahead of my skill level ...

    Thank you very much. This is one of the best tutorials for Boogie Woogie starters. Easy enough for a beginner but getting more and more challenging with every step/level!
    I like your approach how to expand the "licks/arpeggios" and last but - not least- the hint to use the "minor pentatonic" for soloing!
    The REAL work starts when you apply this concepts to different scales!
    Another video on "licks" and "runs" would be the icing on your cake!
    Thank you very much for getting us started to lift the veil on Boogie Woogie piano!

    Loved this series. I made it up to level 4 at 120 bpm. It will take another week to get level 5. But I think speed is part of the mastery. At 80 bpm its easier than at 140. So next I will explore Pianote lessons and see what is next for learning how to be a piano player for a cover band.

    Hi Kevin. Excellent presentation! Thank you for the sheet music. As you mentioned in a previous video with Lisa, the 8th notes are played in a bouncy "swing" style. The sheet music can be used for reference and the student can freely build on that, (after all it's about improvisation). The final ending you played was very impressive. I actually had to slow the video all the way down to see how you did it. Once I get it down, I'll add it to my repertoire. Looking forward to future videos. Thanks again.

    Wow I just started getting inot boogie woogie a few days ago. It started with me trying to learn great balls of fire, and the tutorial im following I think is like lvl 3 to 4, which is probably a bit too hard for a boogie woogie beginner like myself. But I will keep practising, and hopefully one day I will be at the MASTER level! Anyways, thank you so mich for this tutorial breaking down what boogie woogie actually is.

    Discovering Boogie Woogie is the reason I bought a keyboard 2 1/2 years ago. I have a Boogie Woogie Medley. Also, thanks for teaching me Music Box Dancer Lisa. I uploaded the video a few hours ago and I gave you credit in the description.

  • @thefellowshipmusicartsacad7321

    Fun idea to show five levels and the RH licks are great. For clarity, the G minor pentatonic however, Penta only has five notes right :) G Bb C D F . The G blues scale is a hexatonic six note scale as demonstrated at the end of level five. G Bb C C# D F Happy shredding the keys all.

  • @wicksp335
    @wicksp335 Před 4 měsíci

    Boogie is all about variations on a theme. I invariably play the LH with more rythmn, ie in swing/shuffle feel with a sort of 8th note triplet with the first two tied so it cooks all by itself and the RH much as you played here. There are lots of well-used patterns to incorporate and vary for greater interest, as you know. But a great intro to boogie and I like your ending a lot.
    I can play boogie pretty well, up to a point - my weakness is definitely losing the LH when playing tremolos with the RH!! I am trying to improve that with practice. Any tips on that welcomed!! Thanks, great video. Pianote has been great for me in the past.

      I hear elements of Boogie Woogie in Benny Andersson's playing with ABBA. When I think of the music I grew up on, seventies and eighties, unmistakable the seventies with Elton John, Queen, Captain & Tenille etc...and then Supertramp... yeah - rock piano etc is so amazing. Love the Gowan video in here about Rock Piano from say a month ago... Boogie Woogie and animated punchy high octane rock piano playing - it's funny, I have a good friend who is a half decent keyboard player and plays in cover bands - but I've never seen him tickle the ivory like this - like when you achieve this scope of playability, you've made it as far as I'm concerned, like that ragtime stuff too etc - it's a whole other level man

    The first level one should be triplets please correct the Notation staff

    • @B0K1T0
      @B0K1T0 Před rokem

      This kind of rhythm is called "shuffle" or "swing", which means that you play the first note of a pair a bit longer than the second note. Often like if it's 2/3 + 1/3, but it can also be somewhat more subtle. It's more about adding a rhythmic feel than hard maths, that's why it's usually just written like as they would be without the shuffle feel.
