Piano With Jonny;"Circle of 5ths"Should Also Be "Circle of 4ths"In Reverse!!
Thank You to the good learning
Thanks for this video Johnny. How can solo instruments play over these chord progressions. Thanks

Awesome! This makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
Jonny, you're not playin' around.. and you're going straight to what players like us are looking for ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity and your precision in responding to our needs 🙏
This is literally gold! You've unlocked something I've been trying to work out for ages, thank you so much
You are so welcome!
i agree!
Johnny You are too much
Me too.
Yeah, it's NOT "literally" gold there professor. And I mean that LITERALLY!
This has been one of the most useful videos that I've seen for a long time - I even watched it a second time to take notes.
Thanks
Great to hear!
You are the best. I’m Italian and I don’t understand all the words but I listen your music and I read the scores. Tank for your job. 👍🏽
Very interesting, very organised and well presented. Incredible how much you got through in 25 mins!
Jonny, this lesson is a game changer for me! Thank you soooo much for this one!
Your ad preceding this lesson is spot on. So many of us took lessons for years and still can't play fluently. It's a tribute to the power and beauty of the piano that we still have a passionate desire to learn.
You have a unique teaching style for TH-cam jazz piano teachers. While you speak to beginners, I also think you have a lot of pragmatic advice for more advanced players who want to work as professional musicians. Advice for when it's go-time. This seems related to whom you learned from. In any case, greatly appreciate it.
Thank you so much Jonny (if I may so) for your excellent videos, and your great ability to explain complicated things in a simple way!
Jonny, first time visitor. I'm a trumpet player. I've more or less learned some of these devices by trial and error, but it helps to have it all explained in "8 Steps." This will really help my confidence level when I get asked on a gig and have to play "new" tunes, which really aren't that "new if you break them down the way you have here. Mega thanks!
The best lesson I have seen on YouTub for years, in terms of helping make Jazz more understandable. Thanks, Johnny, your work is very valuable to us all out here in Pianoland.
Thank you!
Excellent pacing and organization of material. Thanks!
Best piano teacher I've ever seen🙂 Jonny thanks a lot for this video. Since I met you and your platform I have improved my playing significantly. I made a huge step forward, or, to use a quotation: "My progress is a small step for mankind but a huge step for a single player."
This is great! Thanks, Jonny.
Thanks. I've learnt so much from your videos. I’ll be 70 years old in May and realise I'm finally finding the musical gold at the end of the rainbow. I am going to to use the treasures you have sharedd. Why weren’t you my music teacher 60 years ago?☺️
WOW So inspiring and playing the stuff I WANT TO PLAY! (not interested in Rachmaninoff, Bach etc.) I will be 71 in September and been taking lessons for the past 4 year, a little messed up because of COVID but OK otherwise. I understand the theory well but my fingers don't :-(
Jimmy. That was beautiful playing!! Wonderful! Bravo!
I'm still learning the style coming from rock and metal, and this should help a lot. I already have seen the second progression in a few songs, but it's good to know some others too. Thanks!
I'm a guitarist (new to jazz) and I feel like I'm cheating here, but this has really opened up how I see Jazz. Great stuff! thanks.
I’m a guitarist too. And this really helped me.
trumpet player here. Same admiration for these very clear harmony lessons. Thank you Jonny!
Perhaps your single most useful video - and that’s saying something as your tritone substitution one is pretty awesome!!
For some reason this lesson is really powerful and inspired a lot of creativity. Thank you!
One of the best videos!!!!! I recommend internalizing ALL these progressions over time. I find playing melodies by ear pretty easy. But chord progressions are much harder for me. So this seems the way to learn ing to play chord progressions by ear
Thank you Jonny!!!
You are GREAT! It's a joy listening to you! You are going to get me going and keep me motivated for sure.
thank you Jonny, best lesson i've ever seen
Thank you. This is awesome. been struggling memorizing changes and this makes so much sense. Im a clarinet/saxophone player by the way. More power!
You have really opened my eyes, thanks Jonny, 💓🎹.
Great video! Provides a clear explanation of essential information.
WOW! Great lesson! Thanx!!
I MUST thank you for ALL your GREAT videos lessons. You are the best!
Johnny, this lesson is loaded...great theory...Thanks

You're very organized and the video is very informative. This was fun. Thanks for sharing...
Really helpful video - great fun to explore the various progressions in different keys.
Great stuff!
Wow! I am blown away by this lesson. It is so concise but opens the door to really getting in deeper.
Johnny you are a master at keeping the material accessible and usable.
Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Jonny!
Well explained.
Love this video. My focus is playing in 12 keys everyday. Will definitely check out your courses.
Great video Johnny!
Thank you so much dearest Jonny...your the best from the West....
Brilliant. Thank you.
So lovely and beautiful melodies as you play ....................thanksss
Another winner! Thank you!
I am a bassplayer. This lesson is valuable for playing behind singers who sometimes sing in various keys. Knowing the appropriate chord progression by hearing it is very useful.
Thanks
I just love hearing you play the piano. ❤
Really great stuff
Thank you for your teaching.
Joined your site and I penciled down all 6 courses...look forward to studying these further...amazing teaching, Jonny...thanks! 😎👍 Amazing vocabulary for song writers 🖖

So glad!
Spectacular !!! #4 awesome !!!

REALLY NICE.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
Thanks, Johnny!
Wow, brilliant! Thanks
I went to college to learn jazz as a guitarist and came out a jazz pianist. The course was over-subscribed with guitarists and no pianist. Third week I left my guitar at home and started travelling light. The course tutor couldn't understand at first why had jumped down onto piano. I explained "jazz starts with piano trio and after that bolt on what you like". We were looking like the Gypsy Kings and thats not a good look for jazz. As a guitarist I thought chordally and used patterns. I did know pop piano but the Tutor said that I needed to buy a book. "Jamie Abersolds Jazz Chords for Non-Pianists" Armed with this I learned all the rootless chords, open and closed and all the alt-dom7 shapes. I now know over a hundred standards using fake books. Adding bass and appegiations gives me a cool cocktail sound. I play cocktail piano professionally and still tell people I'm a guitarist for the surprise element. Jazz chord voicings are extremely important. I've seen younger pianists playing jazz and they are all over the keyboard adding 11ths 9ths 13ths. If you do that you will run out of fingers quickly. All these chords can be implied efficiently with just four notes. Think chord shapes not chords this is the trick. Quickly you will see Emaj9 and Gm7 are the same for improvisation and that F7#5b9 (F7alt) is the same as B9. Just the bass is different. This is the tri-tone substitution idea. Think shapes and patterns like a guitarist and jazz piano will become unlocked.
Great! Love this Jazz content! :)
Great class dude !!
SO HELPFUL!!! HAVE ALWAYS BEEN WONDERING THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a beginner but I can say you’re the best virtual I’ve seen . Thank you very much .👍👍👍😀😀😀

Excelente Jonny, muy didactico. Te felicito, comprendi a pesar de no entiendo ingles. Un fuerte abrazo de un venezolano en medellin
Thank You Great Jonny
Alright Johnny, that was very cool and helpful lesson bro. I really enjoyed it. ❤
Fantastic Johnny your the best on here. Gary Uk. Cheers pal
So clear its unreal, lit all the theory you need to start, then just learning actual songs to see how it applies and then see how artists put their own spin on these progressions, or even make new ideas outside of theory to leave you more confused than when you started.
Thanks for helping me with my guitar playing!
I'm a jazz guitar player that wants to get a better understanding of the keyboard and to memorize more tunes. This lesson was perfect! The piano is more visual than the guitar so this will be very useful. Explaining everything relating to scale degrees really helps. Thanks.
An excellent summary. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi. I hope you are very happy. This makes me very happy. It is gold. Thanks so much

I'm learning how to play the guitar but I also like piano and music theory a lot, I really enjoy your videos they are really encouraging, thanks bro.
This video is worth its weight in gold. Thanks so much for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's very good. God bless you.
Many thanks Jonny..
Thank you, Jonny.
You are a very generous instructor revealing the secrets of piano . I learned a lot from you .May God Bless you with more success.👍👍👍
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much for showing us this for free.
Amazing!!!! One thing I want to do before my father pass (many years from now 🤞🏾) is to go to his house and show him I'm learning to play the piano. My Grandfather played, and my father currently plays. I've started young and fell off. I've been back and forth. I got a new keyboard this Christmas and I've been listening to a lot of theories and practice when I can. I do love Jazz. And listening to you play these songs and talk about the chords being used is the upmost motivation. It sounds really great and this is what I want to present to him. Really appreciate this.
So glad you enjoyed this!
If you really want to learn, take the next step and sign up with Jonny. I did nearly three years ago. Although you learn much from these free videos, there is so much more. For me, it was like being in kindergarten and after a few months like being in high school.
great lesson!!!
Thanks! 😃
Great video! Thanks! ✌️
Glad you liked it!
