- It's wonderful to be able to sit down at the piano and improvise music off the top of your head! And many people think you need to be a crazily talented musician in order to improvise.
But this isn't true!
With the right guidance and suggestions even beginners can start improving their own piano music. And in this video I'll show you how.
Using influences from Hans Zimmers soundtrack to Interstellar, I'll give certain chord progressions, patterns, techniques, scales and exercises so that by the end of the piano tutorial you'll be able to create your own stunning piano improvisations.

What a great tutorial Arthur , I think improvisation is the most difficult challenge about playing the piano ( and scariest !! ) but with this lesson you've made it look doable 😊 , I will be watching this video on repeat for a while 🤣 , wish I could give it a thumbs up every time , thank you so much for this 💖
Thanks Patricia i’m pleased it all makes sense. And once you get more familiar with all the techniques it will get easier and easier to incorporate them all into your improvisations. Enjoy! 🙂
Surprisingly, to me improvisation is the easiest part of music, as it allows my soul to freely express my feelings without any boundaries
@@michaelpaulkramer Love this!!!
This is one of the best lessons on improv without all the theory fluff. I can start practicing it right away. Thanks a lot!
You're very welcome!
This is amazingly well structured. Everything builds off what we learned before. Clear and logical ... and great fun to listen to! Bravo!
Thank you. It ended up turning a mini-course (almost). I’m glad you appreciate it! 🙂

You’re welcome 🙌🏻🎹
A great video 👍🏻
Thank you!
This lesson is amazing keep posting more lessons like this GodBless you forever
Thank you, I will!
Grazie Arthur. Magnifico videotutorial. Tra gli altri a me è piaciuto moltissimo l'ultimo pattern della mano sinistra, anche se piuttosto complicato da suonare insieme alla melodia della mano destra,. almeno fin quando non si ottiene una buona indipendenza della due mani. Grazie mille ancora.
Thank you. Yes the left hand may take some practise. I’m glad you like it though 🙂
Very nice tutorial easy to understand for begainers like me make more videos for begainers 🥰Thanks for the tutorial😇
You’re welcome asskicker i’ll make sure I do!

You definetelly should register in something like 'buy me a coffee' service. So all our appreciations is going to be straitforward and easy. Thank you very much for your efforts, I bought your udemy cources, they'are amazing.❤
To be honest I hadn't thought about anything like that. I appreciate your suggestion. I may do that at some point 🙂

Excellent teaching sir. Thank you so much . God bless you.
You are most welcome! 🎹🙌🏻
I liked ALL of them… 😎
Woooop!!
You helped me a lot. I didn’t even know the # 1. So no need to say - l like this or that. I like all of them.
For all are beautiful to me. I like it a lot.
Gimme more like these.
I want to impress friends and family with easy but beautiful patterns in all keys easy to memorize.
You did good to start with the scale of C.
IF you have more in C bring them up.
When will master them, l will follow you in all the other keys.
For now I stay in this key.
God bless. 🙏
I’m pleased you like them so much. I’ll make sure to do more videos on patterns and improv for sure!
amazing.. Very good. Thank you
Glad you think so Andreu!
Thank you so much for this invaluable tutorial. But where is the pdf to download?
Here you go: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
Hi. Thank you so much again. Fun to practice.
You were supposed to add the free pdf. I don't see it... I would like it very much.
Hi Claire, here is the PDF: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
Amazing lesson...very well structure...is there any course about cinematic improvisation on piano....I will love to see one...Thank you..
Thanks! I don't have a full course specifically on cinematic improvisation, however there is a 2 hour section in my chords course on improvisation. You can take a look here: courses.birdspianoacademy.com/p/the-ultimate-piano-chords-course
Thanks again
Thank you for at great way to learn piano🤩I can’t find the PDF file to download?
Sorry it's so late, but here it is: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
I bought your chords on Udemy website. Hopefully I will be able to accompaniment myself while singing=).
Great, yes it will help you to be able to do that! If you decide to buy any more of my courses make sure to check out my website first as you may be able to get them cheaper: courses.birdspianoacademy.com, especially if you use the code CZcams30.
Can you mix and match thirds and sixths, and single note patterns in the same improv. Btw, having so much fun with your teaching. Thank you.
Hi Tim, yes absolutely you can mix and match everything in this tutorial. And the more comfortable you become with the different techniques the easier it will be to do so. Also I’ve included some exercises towards the end that will help you to get used to playing with your right hand over the top of the left hand rhythm patterns.
Thanks i’m pleased you like it. 🙌🏻🎹
@@BirdsPianoAcademy thanks so much. Ready to sit down a give it a try.
@@timhowell4544 Great! Enjoy!
Hello, I like most of your video. I suggest that you write the note or the letters so that we can easily follow and practice...thanks
Hi Ben, I do sometimes include notes or letters in some of my videos, but with it being improvisation there were so many variations. In hindsight I could have included some notation examples though. Thanks for the suggestion.
It's a bit late, but I've put together a PDF which should help: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
Very good video!! Where do I go to get the PDF?
Hi Ken, apologies I haven’t gotten around to notating this yet. I’ll let you know when I do.
Sorry it's so late Kim, but here is the notation: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
I’m happy to just play a tune.lol
🎹🙌🏻
Hello Arthur , where can I find the notation for this excellent lesson? Thank you 😊
Hi Patricia, apologies I haven’t had chance to notate this one yet.
OK I'm sure you are busy, 👍
@@patriciaann6380 Sorry it's taken so long, but here it is: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
Hi Arthur it's been a while but I stumbled upon this and my interest was immediately piqued. As always, you didn't disappoint! As you know I am an advanced player but I really struggle with Improv like a lot of people who have been traditionally trained in the classical realm lol! So thank you, this really does help alleviate anxiety for me when I hear the word improvisation. It's good to see that you're starting to do more advanced-oriented stuff. I see you still haven't finished your PDF lol! You must be busy lol! Thank you once again. Looking forward to the next one.
Hi Scarlette,
Yes I am busy, apologies about the pdf. Many people think that I'm improvising is some kind of mysterious musical magic, but I find breaking it down into manageable stages makes it much more accessible when teaching it. I'm pleased you found it helpful! :)
Sorry it's take so long Scarlette, but here is the PDF: bit.ly/Stunning-Piano-Improvisation-for-Beginners
Arthur thank you so much for doing this. I had forgotten totally. Thank you for remembering. Much appreciated.
@@ScarletteFiesci You're very welcome 🙂
