love your channel, was following along and noticed your piano is tuned down a semitone i.e C is B

Ooo! This was good! I love that these motions can be practiced off a piano as well as on one. I’m aways on the go, I’ve been practicing these at red lights. 🤣

I thought I’d send you some thanks and let you know how much I appreciate your lessons. I swear, when I have the funds, I’ll definitely look into a private few lessons or one of your packages. Keep it up, it’s well appreciated. You’ve probably done a lesson along these lines; harmonising simple melodies, work out the melody by ear and working left hand patterns and chords. It’s so rewarding. I’m going to look through your lessons now! Thanks Noah. As always , nice lesson and classy presentation.

Brilliant exercises 👏🏾 Totally broke my brain, not just a spanner but poured the whole tool box into my brain 🤯🤕😂 Thank you and Happy New Year 🥳

This was so helpful!!

Your videos are very informative and useful. Great work. Thanks !

Very good Noah I will be purchasing the 40 hand independence exercises.

Noob here! Frustrating I can’t even improvise with right hand to basic patterns in my left hand, so looking for these types of exercises. First one went rather well quickly, but second one is already destroying my head, so nice! This video will keep me busy for a while!

Nice video! I'm looking for some more complex versions, if anyone knows a video I would appreciate it! Also if you're also looking for more, you can for starters flip the hands in his exercises which adds another dimension

Awesome video ✌️

Gréât job

thank for this! good practice routine. I still am trying to get the eighth notes and triples together. got the rest but the triplets are weird

I could tell just by your playing at the beginning that I was going to love this video. Do you have any tips on how to play melodically while also doing two-hand voicings? I find it difficult to think about melodies and do complex right hand techniques while also using the kinds of rich and varied voicings that tend to require both hands.

@NoahKellman

4 жыл бұрын

Hey Alex, thanks for watching! That's a good question. I think realistically, there's only so much you can do if you're using both your hands already for rich voicings. However, with that said, I sometimes use just my thumb and 2nd finger in my right hand to add a couple notes to a voicing, and then use my other three fingers to play melodies. Does that make sense? Also, don't forget about the sustain pedal. You can always play a nice voicing, hold the pedal, and then play a line over the top as long as it doesn't get muddy. Does that more or less answer your question?

@AlexG-bc7ji

4 жыл бұрын

@@NoahKellman Thanks! The three finger thing is especially helpful. I ask mainly because I have a book on jazz harmony that focuses primarily on building five note chords using both hands, and while the voicings are great, I often find myself wondering how I'm supposed to use them while working with melodies at the same time.

@NoahKellman

4 жыл бұрын

@@AlexG-bc7ji Oh I see! Yeah that's a great question. Especially for playing solo piano, I'll often play a chord and hold the sustain as I described above. I feel like that's a great method! Are you mainly wondering for solo piano, or for playing with a band as well?

Here is a suggestion for a new video: keyboard skills exercises from the basics (e.g. scales and diatonic chords in all keys). Thank you for the advanced videos you've been making too :)

Yep feels like the upright is out of tune. Or it’s probably in tune just playing the key of B in the wrong key lol. Either way awesome video my man!!!!! Where do I get your exercising and what does it do for my fingers?

Thx a lot. I appreciate your work. and I will practice now, not spend time with writing. Go on!

An exercise I practised on the bike: on the handlebar I tap with the L.H. the pattern [5-4-3-2-1-2-3-4-]* and in the R.H. the pattern [1-2-3-4-3-2-]* Extremely difficult in the beginning, but after a while practising it you can do it without thinking. Key with this exercise is 'Practice VERY slow at first'.

I was worried that this would be out of my pay grade, and definitely will give it a try. I liked the fact you kept in the mistakes. I subbed to your channel. I'm also unsubbing from the piano virtuosos that show exercises and are up and down the keyboard before I have time to find the C note. I have a good friend in a big name band and he called me while I was doing scales. He said to practice slowly.

Very very helpful...... Love from India🇮🇳 kolkata 130

when someone talks about hand independence I always remember Jacob Koller. It looks like the guy has two brains: one for each hand. Thanks for the exercises btw.
