this is the most inspiring and motivating piano tutorial i've come across in years. this may be just what i needed to get myself exploring the keys again. your melody singing is legend esp with the borrowed chords

Salute to your consistent hardwork.. Very deep diverse and Correct musical knowledge with 100 % practical application. Jason you deserve much much more and international recognition. I request please push your career forward and upward by BECOMING ASSISTANT TO SOME GOOD COMMERCIAL MUSIC COMPOSERS OF THE INDUSTRY... If you read biographies of all successful musicians, 1 common thing is that they assisted field musicians and composers... This is the way to go Jason. Wish you join Illayaraja sir

Are you doing any commercial background music projects ? If not, please start it... build your portfolio ... e.g. watch short videos and make bgms for different situations like, sadness, tragic scenes, hope, fun etc... compose music for different emotions and situations which inspire you. This way, you will have a pile of pieces which you can publish or sell

@nathanielschool Жыл бұрын

No time Raheel. But yes! I do some of these projects from time to time. Look me up on Spotify and KZfaq. I've collaborated on a few movies and with quite a few bands!

@ajilful Жыл бұрын

Thanks for this great lesson. I have a doubt to get clarified as a beginner, in most of your lessons the left hands plays the root. In a chord in left hand and melody in right hand most of the youtube covers the left hand plays arps with multiple notes and the left hand fingers fly a lot , is there any lesson to play such chords in left and melody in right or I am not sure what exactly the name technique is ?

@ajilful Жыл бұрын

For example like this, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p72jmcSmvbmtdKM.html the chord arpeggio in left hand how it’s done .. how to bring the hand independence with these type of chord and melody situations? Thanks in advance.

@nathanielschool Жыл бұрын

Yes, absolutely. There are too many lessons to list where I've covered multiple Left Hand patterns which can be used over Melodic & Harmonic movement in the Right Hand. I also cover multiple song arrangements using these techniques. Please head to our website where we've categorized the content a bit easliy: www.nathanielschool.com/free-tutorials

It happens to me, as I have lyrics that I have the harmony in my mind but can’t create them in the piano , I have tried chord tone, chord progressions etc
