Thank you alot for the beautiful tutorial. May I ask you which Piano is this? I would like to buy a digital piano. I would love also some recommendation for music recording from home. God bless!
Hello. Where can I get the sheet music for the swing gospel style? Thanks.
Wow need such tutorials 👌🙏🏾
More please. As a beginner I have much work to do but I love even just listening to this style. Something to aspire to.
Can't wait to learn that happy birthday arrangement, thanks for the lesson!
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks John and Jonny!!! Appreciate all the help!! God Bless Bruce
Great explanation and presentation! Thanks John! Looking forward to seeing more such videos from you, specially on harmonizing popular songs from scratch..
Thanx, Gentlemen 🌹🌹🌹
"One more time for good luck." Lol You rule. Thanks, brother. Excellent quick tip!
Fantastic lesson! Clearly presented, explained and demonstrated! Love the theory and techniques behind the arrangement of this beautiful, classic hymn! Thank You!
Amazing grace notes
thank you :) i realised i need so much more to learn
God bless you all learning piano for God, remember to focus on worshiping Him, instead of the details and the styles during services ❤
but at the same time you can worship Him with details also, like for example I do details to describe how beautiful He is
This tutorial is very important. Kindly provide printable arrangement sheet. Thx Johnny
Beautiful sir
I like to add a little something myself. C, F, A, G, F, A in the beginning. Even add more throughout the song. I've played for 20 years. I basically do the same. I like your tutorial.
Mr. John thank you very much. AMAZING tutorial. Very transparent, clearly explained and demonstrated. Great. You certainly know how to MOTIVATE. Thanks. Gracias. Danke. Greetings from Spain.
Perfect I just love your style!
I'm definitely hearing some Carol King piano runs in here...

Beautiful
Awesome playing!! Really nice style!! I love it!! TFS.
Pitched just right for me, and I can pass on these tips. Thanks John and Jonny. How about more just like this but with other songs.....eg You Raise Me Up etc.
Thanks for sharing Jonny, incredible tutorial. Stay safe always.
Amazing Grace!
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come
'Tis Grace has brought me safe thus far
And Grace will lead me home
Amazing Grace!
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Was blind but now I see
Thank you. You make this easier to understand. You are a good teacher
I play Gospel music and this looks really good as an intro to playing Gospel! It has the basic devices and is easy enough for beginners. I watched many gospel piano tutorial videos on CZcams for beginners that just explain how to play the major scale and what basic chords are, and no intermediary materials between that and their super-advanced stuff. Hopefully, fewer pianists are scared next time they hear Gospel piano playing.
Yes! I play hymns and classical and have been trying jazz and blues for the past few years. When I used to lead worship at church on piano, it was so hard to make it gospelly so I watched tons of vids and found the same problem. Simple basic lesson then they bust out this crazy gospel organ thing that's such a leap.
yes yes yes@@carolinebarley and @calvinLimuel this is an awesome lesson - it is the hardest thing to find good intermediate lessons - once you get a lesson like this you can make fast progress
Nice stuff man - like what you're doin' - nice changes..!
I love this! Sounds great!!
Good luck keep up the good work.
very cool 🙏🎹👍
Great teaching. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful arrangement.
I like the way it's written... the way he played it first. Puts more emphasis on the lyrics.
amazing teacher
Thank you this is great fun to play
Glad you enjoy it!
Can you learn Tom Brier Razor blades please. It's a really difficult ragtime piece
Excellent! Very useful and helpful!
Thank you.. Wow…
Fantastic! Love it! 🏆👋👋👋
역시 소름이 쫙 쫙 돋는다 잘한다 👍 😎 😍 😂 😄 😁 👍 😎 😍 😂 😄 😁 👍 😎 😍
good approach. spicing up simple and popular tune.
Love this version even i can’t play piano.
At first, I thought I was on the wrong channel! ha I like!! Do you provide sheet music for these styles? I play but may not be the best creative (musically speaking). Thanks.
Can someone tell me what's the theory behind how to harmonize the baseline?
how can i get a print out of this lesson
Hi, firstly great lesson and song. I hope Johnny gets the rest he deserves. Awesome content must say. Just a question if I may on bar 31. The last note of the melody ties in with the last note on the bass right? Is there sometimes a notation like a dotted or dashed line to join the two to make this clear as newbies like might miss this? It's a tricky part of the song so any clarification is good for beginners like me. Thanks again.
Where can I find the this piece? I want to learn it
great style, can you please upload the music sheet with fingers, will be better for beginners🙂
Sukar nih..
i can't thank enough....
Can I not download the actual sheet music with your edits?
Not seeing the b13 written at the end of first line.
argggggg mean sheet music now
Can we not play gospel style using keyboard
John! I am excited to have found you. I play with just my right hand and left elbow. (check out my CZcams channel, "Gigi's one-handed Ways." I notice that not too many notes are played with your left hand at one time so I think I can make this work to some degree. I'm going to give this a good shot LOL Thank you!
Piano with John but without Jonny.
Actually there are few pianists that play and form PWJ and all off them are great and top notch tutors, I can tell :)
Chuckled when he said "Add some color to it" (I'm black.)
😂😂😂
Use more jazz
Quite a few errors here, although your overall concept is good. Your narration doesn't match the notation in several spots. I'll only mention one error specifically. You are lacking a written time signature in the "Swung" example, which presumably is 3/4. If you tried that in my class, you would get an F. But there's more...
That Gm7 in the first walking bass sequence is actually just a Gm.
