Hello there. So, have you mastered the drumming rudiments and are you able to perform a proper 2 stroke drum roll? Do hope you don't mind me asking, but had practise pad and sticks, DVDs, tutorial books, a couple of lessons and practiced for eons. Had a kit and COULD learn grooves and beats. Even John Bonham/Bernard Perdie shuffle! However, ultimately gave up due to failure to satifactorily master the rudiments. Regards - Mike

Learned within an hour, and can master it within a week. As anything, practice makes perfect 👍

Selfless passionate piano teacher. Blessings to you🎵

I've watched this video multiple times for 3 days now. I picked up C Major the first day, I was getting aggravated yesterday because I couldn't grasp the rest of it. I just decided to try again, I've been sitting here for 10mins and I picked it up immediately! I will recommend this video to anyone wanting to quickly do it. Thank you for this!🥇🏆

This video was extremly helpful especially the hymn reading one, now i can really get the money , thank God for you can you do a track pad on how to put lyrics to hymns i really need a song class to.Thank you

You're a great teacher! Very easy to learn. Now, have to do my part and practice my finger muscle memory! Thank you

I have been learning to play the piano for the past year through an online provider. But I could not see myself ever able to improvise anything regardless of their promises. With this one lesson I finally get it! Thank you so much for sharing.

This guy is great. I tried to learn chords many years ago but thanks to him, now I get it I'll be 71 in November but caught on in less than 30 minutes!

Hey Zach!! Thank you so much!!! I've been practicing the traditional way for months. As soon as I tried your 4 chords (and beyond), life has never been the same! LOL. So, thanks for putting this up for us! Much love from Bangkok! 🇹🇭

Hi Zach! I got it as you played it, and will now practice it over and over. Really love this whole video, you have made a lot of things clear, which I have struggled with for a long time before I found your videos. Thank you so much. I am really enjoying your lessons. 😎

you are the best piano teacher for beginners that I EVER HEARD ABOUT. It is like piano for completely dummies (just like me) and it rly works. I tried everything else and i didnt have ANY coordination. Now I finally could pass the stuck phase that i was with the piano. I couldnt learn it at all, but your lessons guide me through it and kept me motivated, it was super helpful, I did them in 2018, im back now to try more of your amazing tutorials and methods, because im feeling stuck again. I have hands coordination now, I know scales and chords, im looking for improvisation and also ill try to get better at rhythms and patterns with the chords, i do like this video tho, it seems "easy", but you did put it in such nice way increasing the difficult that makes me wanna try the entire lesson. * Ill put the time that i took to learn once I try the lesson to finish i just want to say thank you for your videos and all the effort you put on it believing anyone can play the piano. I do love your methods

Awesome! I signed up for the piano superhuman course. It's free and really great. I felt a significant improvement in my piano skills. I recommend it to everyone. If you can, go for the mastery courses too.

I've been learning piano for the last 11 months, and have learned to play with both hands, too. I discovered your Four Money Chords yesterday, and found them straightforward, but such a welcome change to the normal tunes that I've been playing. Tell you what, Zach, the difference is you.... you and your enthusiasm for what you do!! Now I'm looking at the Simple-but-mesmerizing-piano pattern, and it's such a blast to pick up on an entirely new challenge. At age 73, I wish I had longer fingers, but it's great exercise to get my clumsy hands working! Good on you!

I love your teaching method! 65 and started 10 years ago, you made it jell! Thank you your the bomb!!

I have been trying to learn the piano for the past 30 years and couldn't really 'get it'. I was just reading notes and playing(very difficulty too since i was trying to learn by myself most of the time). Now i'm excited to learn and play. You are building up my confidence. I like how you take step by step methods in teaching us. Thank you!!! I could stay up all day and night just learning and practicing with your videos!

I've been learning piano for the past two months and after watching your video today everything just clicked! Thank you so much for the great info

Thank you for putting this out here and providing the cheat sheets! I feel like I've got the hang of the first two iterations of this exercise after about half an hour of practice. This will definitely be an exercise that I build into my daily warm up routine to help get the fingers moving!

I started playing by ear with just the major cords of this progression for the song “Stand by me” by b.b. king, when I was 10. I’ve since used variations in right hand playing style for those chords and applied it to many synthesizer jams but never ventured past that with the minor cords. Really appreciate this video. I was looking for something slightly outside my comfort zone with that progression that would give me more options and this was right up my alley. Thanks again!

Loving your lessons. In this lesson I have trouble knowing where to first put my thumbs as in all the close chord progressions!

First part I learned right away but then I have experience as I am a voice teacher and performance coach and I studied music in college. Zach, I have been following you for the past 2 years now, you are so awesome and an exceptional✨teacher! I am even one of your piano university students, but I must confess that due to some ‘life’ stuff over the past 2 years I haven’t been able to put my focus towards my music and becoming a better pianist, etc. However I am happy to say ...to use the Johnny Cash song “I can see clearly now the rain is gone...” and so I came here to KZread this morning to look up your ‘secret sauce pattern’ that I had ‘accidentally’ come across a month ago while watching your amazing tEDTalk (people! Go check it out RIGHT now it’s SO inspiring!) but found myself instead here on THIS lesson. I just wanted to say...YOU ROCK⚡️ and thank you for being a TRUE-to-the-heart💘 exceptional teacher and Super Human! And btw... your periodical text messages with videos to inspire us to practice are working.. and you always bring me a smile and a chuckle! Ty!🤗

Ive been trying to figure how to play my songs with taking awkward leaps between each chord in a song and the inversions cheat sheet was exactly what i was needing. Zach i honestly love you bro.

This is awesome!! I learned in about 45 minutes then took a break for an hour an for some reason played better the second time but, I'm a boomer and I only started this last weekend so Im pretty slow 🐌 This is a awesome lesson and very useful. The fact that it uses simple progressions instead of trying to play each measure note for note ( which is hard and quite frankly, frustrating for me ) makes me feel a greater sense of accomplishment and sounds great. Thank you so much for the lesson and the cheat sheet 🙂👍

This is an awesome video to learn piano. I have no prior music experience and it took me a couple of hours to learn the first basics steps. Then another couple of hours to learn the chords. I dont have a good voice, thats the only challenge for me to get a melody for a song. I am working on that. Thank you Zach, this is awesome

Dude! Fantastic video and series! I'm a home general contractor of 25 years with sausage fingers and never played a musical instrument in my life until now. I received an old, beat up piano as partial payment for some work and decided to finally give it a try. Your videos, printable aids and a little dedication have led me to actually making music!! I'm a super slow study, but you took the mystery, wonder and dream of piano playing and made it understandable, achievable and FAST!! WAY TO GO!!!!!

This is absolute genius. Perfecto! Many thanks.

Wow! Exellent lessons... I was having issues with right & left hand coordination... last night I watched this lesson layin down before I went to sleep and was blown away as I followed your finger exercises and my left and right hand were doin their parts... Appreciate All your time & knowledge you put in to these videos and printouts. I've learned from other videos, however, I've advanced way more with hand coordination and positions in just 3 videos of yours. Your benevolence will be rewarded.

This is valuable information!! Thank you!! I’ve been looking for something like this to learn the chords, yet fun!!

Thanks so much. It's amazingly more easy than I can ever imagined!

Love your tuition style and enthusiasm, Zach. This took me four or five minutes to nail this and it sounds great. Wow, thats amazing, the current radio song ended on exactly the same repeated sequence! I took some formal lessons about a year ago and I got frustrated and bored. But I did get Level 1 music theory out of it. Thanks

Just started learning piano and you by far are have been the best for me to learn. I love that muscle memory tricks. Really helps. I even try to practice them while not at my piano. Can’t wait to keep learning more.

Sounds like U2: With or without you. Love the courses. I’m a beginner and your tutorials are brilliant for me. Thank you so much ✌️

Been playing 3 months (self taught) took 10 mins for me. Sounds like bragging but not lol. I learnt (and still remember) how to play a few songs as a kid but that's it. I think having the blessing of being able to playby ear helps a lot. Actually there an app that can train you too play by ear. Well worth it 👍🏼 This channel is unbelievably good, I mean I feel I should be paying to watch these vids 👌🏼

Clear explanation. Helpful tips for the future - how to search your favourite song and play it! Thank you.

I'm doing good now since I spent time learning my scales really important thanks again

Thank you, subscribed and joined, teaching my grandkid to play. This is awesome!

thanks zack, i am going to be working on these lessons. with a bit of arthritis i will do my best.

Thank you so much, no one has ever expained the thinking behind music to me before, they always just say wich notes to use in specific scenarios but never actually gave me the chance to actually learn. Thanks a lot

Wow. Your lessons are simple, smart and to the point. I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years and always have been meaning to learn piano. Your lessons have given me the same feeling of freedom as I had when I learned my first 5 chords. Thanks man!

I love this, took me only a few trys.

Thank you very much! It's really important to show someone how to fish instead of giving him one you caught. Really good job, love your work keep it up!

Gr8 stuff Zach, love your teaching style, it works for me.👍🏻😍

I just learned this pattern in about 30 seconds.. so check it, I've played guitarr (completely self-taught) for 16 years and now all of the sudden i can come up with so much more creative melodies on a piano, than I've ever been able to do on guitar.. (and I just started trying to teach myself to play piano probably less than a year ago) absolutely speechless.... this was a great lesson 👏 super informative yet fast and easy to learn

These lessons are great! I sometimes lose track of the rhythm if I don't listen which is perfect cos I need to learn how to listen as well as play👂 it's helping my depression alot. I appreciate you teaching these lessons and for free 😊

Hey Zach, Thank you so much for this course! Especially the finding any key part!! (I was so excited about this until I haven't watched all the video yet) Love the Boom 4-3 major and Boom 3-4 minor. That makes finding a chord SO MUCH easier!!

I picked it up pretty fast! you are an amazing teacher!!!

This is invaluable stuff. Thank you!

I got lost at 10:14 with the G major. I'll have to sleep on it like recommended and get back to this tomorrow. Watching the 4 cords video has helped me understand this video better.

Great Beginners video. I have taken this idea and am using 3 notes in the right hand, and octaves in the left hand. Trying out various note combinations of the chords (inversons). Really intersting as to how one can control the tension and release.. For the C & G I go down in the right hand, then for A & F go up. Love you energy and enthusiasm.

Great video! It took me about 5 min too learn the first exercise. I will now try the advanced versions. Sean (8 yrs old)

I do not have a piano to practice yet, but I love your teaching methods.... I think I can play it easy just watching how you teach the pattern. Getting a piano soon!

Hello zach! I understand that part when you gonna pick two notes where the one should be the right and the other should be the leftmost. This is a switch for just chords.

He inverts the chords in order to keep them close, as it's a close chords sheet. It makes it easier to play those chords and arpeggiate those chords on one hand

Hello Zac, I am very impressed on how you teach. I have been playing for years and the last several years playing hymns in the church. I have wanted to Expand on that as I do read music no tend to “go to” place and not now to do chording as I red music. I am hoping that with your lessons, this will help me out of that comfort zone and challenge me to open up more creative ways to piano playing. Thank you.

Thank you Zach. You explain things really well and for the first time I am able to just play chords along with my guitarist friend.
