I am 73 years old. Never learned the piano, even though my mom taught piano for more than 50 years --- a big regret in my life. Decided to do something about it now. Your program is awesome! Thank you for putting so much on for free -- to get a beginner started. Well done!!
@@amandadewar9722 I'm about half the age and don't even own a piano, and I'm still learning...this guy is a gifted teacher, and an eloquent salesman, tbh. Refreshing.
Since my wife recently died (RIP Katherine) I'm learning/playing/;teaching music full time. Guitar is my first love, been playing for 40+ years. Ive just recently taken learning piano and music theory. You're channel is awesome, right about where I'm at - thank you for sharing all your hard work, I appreciate you. Rock on !!! ~ A Michael
I am quarantined at home due to corona virus pandemic and couldn’t be happier now that I’ve found you, as I am going to come out of this with a new talent thanks to you!!! Yahoooo
I'm just going to get up into loft and retrieve my keyboard. Was thinking the same as yourself about coming out of this pandemic with something positive to show for my isolation. The world will be full of keyboard players at the end of this if they all see this video. Good luck.
the way I felt so seen and almost cried at 1:59 when you're saying the other videos move their hands so fast and use to many fingers at once LOL so true.
yes, supercool. I have played music but never cords and always thought is was complicated. Now I have a electronic piano why not play it, it starts to make sense now. I will do I again tonight and sleep on it🎉 and see you tomorrow morning. Million thanks ❤
@@sushiljalan good for you so am i. i just bought a second hand keyboard my fingers feel a little stiff but hopefully i will be able to stretch them enough it's amazing how little children can play like they do and good luck to you and maybe you could video your journey and post up some when
I'm 63 and just picked up a used keyboard. I took some lessons as a child and tried online lessons before, but it was awful hard. So far, I've got through your first two lessons today and hope to continue with 10 - 30 minutes per day. Thanks Zach and I really want to keep playing.
I got it! I bought my 8 year old grandson a keyboard for Christmas and decided I needed to learn some basics to encourage him. I’m 65 and never played before. Your teaching style is fantastic. Thank You! 👍😊
Zack. I'm a 67 year old man who never played any musical instrument before and you have really slowed it down for my middle aged brain. I think I got it. Great job teaching us beginners.
You do a great job of teaching and explaining. I am legally blind and play by ear. So I’m not looking at your finger positions. I’m glad you can explain them and describe what you are doing. I’m glad you take it slow and steady going step-by-step. That really does help beginners.
I am 42 and starting to learn piano with my daughter. Awesome lessons great progression learning, Adele learning, C major scale, and now this song. Thanks for sharing.
For years, I wanted to learn piano but got overwhelmed with all the other beginner tutorial videos. But this one here is the best. This actually reignited my interest to push through the challenge. Thank you! Focusing on your tutorials now. 💪🏽💪🏽
Yeah! The other vids just show what keys to press, but its.. Just not explained. If there so happens to be those and more that fall behind, they are adressed first. Given chance to catch up. If not? Given thought as to what to do in order to possibly push through! We're being considered. Given the chance we need. For those of us which simply required that, can finally push through. Break through. Good Luck!
47 yrs old never touched a piano. Spent a few hours on one of your videos and learned lots. I'm going to see where this goes and keep taking your classes. Thanks for teaching it in a way I can understand it. That's a rare talent in itself. Appreciate you. 👊🏼
I don't usually comment on you tube but here goes. I am a 50 year old male who is thinking about learning piano. This is the best video I have come across on her to help me in my lessons. Thank you.
You are my music Saint! I have been playing guitar for 40 yrs plus and have written more than 100 songs. Transposing my music to piano from guitar will be a blast! You have made this so clear! I am 62 years old by the way and the future looks great!...thanks!
Learning to play these cords made the incredibly daunting task of learning how to play the piano actually seem possible for me. I had tears in my eyes when I finally brought it all together.
Zach you are a brilliant teacher. 50 years ago i got a grade 2 Royal Schools of Music . Never played the piano again and is my biggest regret in life. I am definately taking it up again with your tutorship. Thank you Thankyou for the revival.
Ive been a lead guitarist/song writer for over ten 10 years and it all began with Marty Schwartz "how to solo with four notes" video. This may be the piano equivalent! THANK YOU SIR!
My husband always played this way and how wonderful that I have found someone like yourself to help teach me. The videos are amazing and just after a couple of days, I feel optimistic that I will be able to accomplish this. Gonna sleep on it now and looking forward to getting back to it tomorrow. Thank you so much. What a gift you are providing to those of us who desire to learn.
Never touched a piano until today at 42 years old. Bought my first one and played this! I like taking a break and going back and watching my muscle memory kick in. Thank you!!
I bought this keyboard two weeks ago didn’t know nothing you just taught me something in 5 m five minute I had to take a break. My fingers was hurting I can’t wait to go father. Thank you so much. my God bless you.
I've been playing the piano for 40 years and I am an old lady now with a young heart and this video made my day. I learned so much and I followed everything you said!
I just started learning the piano a couple days ago and my biggest weakness has been trying to play with both hands. Watching your first 2 lesson videos bas helped so much. I can see so much progress already! I can’t wait to follow along with your other videos because I know I will continue to get better! Thank you, you are a great teacher!
The last time I took piano was like 50 years ago. Typical scenario, I took it because my parents made me. Got out of it probably after a year. I feel like I never got past single note drills and kids Christmas songs. Pretty much hated piano. Now I’ve had a miracle! I’m no longer tone deaf and I’m singing on our church choir and I want to learn piano. I’ve been watching all the beginner piano lessons I can find on TH-cam, and I’ve found your the easiest to follow. I like the handout, single handed left rhythm drills, then right hand chords without moving around the keyboard. Best of all I love following your lighted keys above your keyboard!!! Somehow by watching your keys I don’t have to keep looking down at mine and lose my place when I would normally need to take my eyes off the video to see what I’m doing, if that makes sense. I’m excited to continue practicing your drills and make real progress that I can feel and hear. Thank you for making it accessible for me with little musical experience! The only thing that almost scared me away at the beginning was when you introduced chords that were not at the root, the way I learned from other videos, but once I got far enough along I saw why. I’m so glad I hung in there so I could see how quickly I would be able to play piano with two hands! That’s crazy and makes me want to learn more! Thank you!
I'm picking up playing piano again after a long break and one off the ways I build my practice is with your lessons like these. I get the explanations and I can execute it but this 4 chords practice feels "strange" probably because I'm not used to it. When I had piano lessons as a child I don't remember ever having heard with the 4 rhythms and I don't think I was taught this method off chords. I was taught with note reading and reading sheet music, counting and so on and with Jim Thompson books. I may have forgotten it and I haven't played that long as a child, at the most few years. I also never did improvisation neither. This video feels a bit like jazz style to me, could be wrong cause I've never played jazz on a piano before. Your first lesson with the 4 patterns (middle, pointer, middle, ring) was a lot easier for me and altogether feels very natural. I'm committed though so I'll work through it with the chords.
Got it Zach! I'm 71 and getting ready to retire and have fun. I've tried a sheet music learning from 'Great Courses' and was demoralized. I just want to riff and have fun not perform boring sheet music. I feel liberated...THANKS!
WOAH! This is UNREAL! I'm piano beginner, only know some boring melodies and tried to find some basic chords and YES, I did see some of those other videos which were confusing. I put this tutorial video playing from laptop and practiced left had along with you, paused video for rythms, and at the start, tried those four cords but it seemed that it would take few months to master those.... UNTIL you broke those down and provided tips! It's mindblowing when you understand the structure that moving fingers inside the chords makes all the difference, it's EASY. At the end of the video I already know how to play these and now I only need to master these and add rythm. Simply amazing! Thank you so much!
When I was 6 years old (I'm 61 now) I was in a foster home. While I was there, I was given a few months of piano lessons by a music teacher. I only remember a little bit from those lessons but this is not how I was taught. My first few lessons were all about learning scales and building muscle memory by running scales over and over. Unfortunately I didn't stay at that particular foster home long and I never got to progress much further on the piano. I don't remember much from those lessons but what I do remember is middle C and the C scale. I have always loved the piano. Now I can finally start learning to play the piano because of your videos. Thank you.
I just want to say I am 56 years old and have been playing keyboard since I was 13 so upwards of over 40 years and I find your videos still very helpful to me and helpful for developing new skills in my playing abilities. Thank you very much.
I have actually just tuned in but you gave me an understanding of the keyboard, thank you, it's great to see someone who explains everything every step of the way. I have always loved the piano and with your tutoring, I thank you from the bottom of my heart, I have finally learned something and I'm 55 years old. You read next is called te reo our native language in Aotearoa - New Zealand and translations alongside them. He kaiako miharo. (An amazing teacher). He nui aku whakamoemiti mo tenei kaiako. (I have a lot of compliments for this teacher.)
I'm 60 yrs old, a beginner, and have been playing songs with chords. This is great! I'm gettin' it, and this really is helping me use my left and right hand more than just playing a note on the left and a chord on the right, although even that's been great. I'm excited to learn more!
Your style of teaching is exactly what I wish I had 18 years ago when I started taking lessons. I quit out of frustration because I didn’t have the patience to study and learn how to read sheet music like my teacher wanted me to. Your videos are making me ecstatic to learn and play again!
I’m 37 years old. I bought my key board day before yesterday. I have never played the piano before. EVER. I’ve learned more from your videos in 2 days than I EVER thought I’d ever know. These videos are perfect for BEGINNERS! Can’t wait to watch the rest! Thank you!
Hi! Turning 66 on 26 Jan. and never played a piano (not even when I passed through Ar-kansas 🙂). 50 years of playing guitar and very comfortable with this through all genres I like. Can't say enough about having even a little theory knowledge in my toolkit. Chord 1-3-5 and 1-4-5 setups relate easily here so it makes sense. The interest (desire) to play a new instrument is there and I was looking for a good spot to launch this quest. Thanks for blessing us with this chance to learn a little from the gift you were given. Happy New Year to All! - Jim
you can tell he genuinely cares and wants to share the knowledge and beauty of how much enrichment you can gain in life from being able to create music. and he wants to empower people with that skill! but also i doubt he’s interested in constantly teaching beginner piano classes...haha that’s gotta be drainer for advanced players so this is wise he is doing this bc it provides a service to others to get engaged and he now has more time, energy, and network to teach, be fulfilled, even some extra well deserved financial abundance from creating new students. thank you!!
Hey! I’ve tried this so many times and I’ve never found a video that really helped me. Right now I finished your video and I am so happy that I did. In all the other videos I’ve watched I always felt like I could never do it but this one prove me that I just needed a teacher that could teach me it like you do. Thank you very much I will definitely continue watching your videos and you just earned a new subscriber
I really appreciate the way you break down each chord progressively and really drill it into our memories; first time piano learner here, thank you very much!!
DUDE I LOVE YOUR ENERGY! I have the attention span of a goldfish but I stuck with you till the end and now I'm singing with the piano! You didn't just teach me how to play piano though, you taught me how to apply myself to life! You are a treasure. I genuinely felt so much love for you. This actually might be the first comment I've ever made on TH-cam but I hopped on here just to say thanks for being you. We need more people like you!!! Excited to check out your website :)
yo man I just started trying to learn the piano , and hadn't really got too far, but after watching and actually learning chords and I've really learned how to play a little something. Man I'm 61 and disabled and really am trying to play the piano. Again thank you for your time.
Thank you sir, I’ve been yearning to play the piano for awhile and I’ve been wanting to play worship songs for the Lord as I sing as well. Thank you for making this available and free to everyone. In this trying times music is such a peace and a way to relief all your stress! God bless you And he will prosper you in all you do as you give , you will receive your harvest ! Looking forward to more of your videos
Thank you! I am in my 60's. I am up to Suzuki Book 2. I am learning a lot of great, busy classical pieces, but I want to play chords so that I can do contemporary things too. This is VERY helpful! I think I want to do all of your online piano courses to balance out what I am learning. You are going slow enough and you are very clear. It is easy to keep up and I am looking forward to learning more.
I found this site by accident and have to say ...I have been trying for a looong time to learn piano ...30 minutes each night for 3 nights did more for me than a year of messing around ...this is truly gold ...thank you sooo much...I am inspired.
I'm self taught (20+yrs ago!) and these videos are filling in the gaps! It's amazing how your muscle memory falls to the same pattern, I'm enjoying the challenge to learn new patterns. Thank you so much for doing this, amazing stuff! 👌
Zac you inspire me to practice, practice, practice most times for 2 hours! I have advanced and it's super easy now with variations. I am a senior who mostly taught myself the hard way till I discovered your tutorials. Playing the piano during lockdown inspired me to play songs to keep my pain at bay! Thank you for the free lessons, and your encouragement! You are awesome!
I started learning the piano a few months ago and used other video tutorials, but I had been struggling with coordinating my hands. Your video helped me get it down in less than an hour 😱 You’re a great teacher! Thanks so much.
I’ve been playing piano for 45 years. Moving the middle notes for the chords and especially the four rhythms is extremely helpful. Can’t wait to continue these beginner lessons.
I am someone that eager to learn since I was a kid, attended a music lesson and on day 1 I quit as I just can't find myself to learn the keys. Up until now, I still want to learn as I also love to sing with my children but couldn't play any instruments. Put all my girls into a music class and now they are starting to play. Today I DECIDED to fulfill my dreams of wanting to play music especially keyboard so that's why I am here. Just started and already learning simple keys as per instructed by the tutor today. A bit confuse but I am determine to continue my music lesson thank you so much for your time and especially to simplify the explanation down to my level as a beginner, God bless you and really good to learn during this lock down. I remember how I first started learning how to use a typewriter, putting my fingers in a proper position but I managed and I always think of this as a typewriter too but I found this much harder ahah I am struggling to place my fingers especially my little finger lahah lol but never mind I will try my very best as I really want to sing and play at the same time with my children,
@@elizabeterubina6639 and??? Your point exactly??! Have you not been impacted by another human being doing great things that you can't stop writing about it! This guy has truly inspired me to be better and I actually was on the verge of giving up on my gift! So do the world a favour and positively influence someone's life that they take time out to show their gratitude to you, if not...then become a positive person for your own well being.
Monday a 94yr old lady from church gave my 6 year old grandson a 1942 Steinway upright because she was moving and couldn't take it with her. I've been using your video so I can teach both of us. Thank you for having these videos.
I cannot not thank you enough Zach! I have wanted to play piano my entire life, but work, raising a family, being low income and with Learning disabilities has kept me busy. I didn't think I could learn, but you have shown me "The Light!" You are an amazing and wonderful teacher. Thank you to the ends of the earth, and around again. I discovered a piano organ the other day in the library of my seniors residence, and finally I can learn!!!
3rd day on piano (never even touched one before); learned it along with your video exactly on the 15 minute mark. Does not say anything about my skill, but about how FANTASTIC of a teacher you are. Man you are awesome! Thank you.
My guy these aren't piano hacks, literally everyone in the "piano community" knows that these are just simple hand motions that make you zero progress and skill. This guy literally robs people with classic sales techniques and piano knowledge for you to buy his "course"
You can now expand step-by-step into Ballad style, Blues, Jazz, Ragtime, Improvisation and creating your own melodies. You will even learn how to read music AS you learn how to ‘play-by-ear’ and eventually you will be able to play some amazing Classical pieces. visit here 4LearnPianoEasy.blogspot.com
I shall sleep in it for sure . I’m sure my fingers will be loosening too. I appreciate this. Have always wanted to do this . I told myself I’m doing this for my Mum too and the brain recalibrated & started getting it . Thanks
Completely new to piano. I watched your beginner video and then this one. So far it's actually kind of impressive, your teaching style is better than any other I've found
Hey Mike, As a teacher, I'm impressed with your constant referral to how we learn. The idea of the self learning through the tough part is super. The reason for repeat is muscle memory, reasons for different types of activities really pushes the student on. And best of all asking us to write out what was good and what needs work. I really love your teaching. One thing I myself seem to have a problem with is the f chord on the right hand. It seems my thumb becomes lazy and I forget to add it with the whole chord. This doesn't seem to happen with the other three. Great beginning! Thank you. Pat
Watching this video was such a great help! By the end of it there was a noticeable difference in my overall playing, smoother and much more consistent performance. I find myself giving up on many piano tutorials because they go over the lesson too quickly for me to follow and understand everything effectively. The thing I love most about Evans videos is he gives you the opportunity to take your time, which in turn helps you obtain the most information as well as learning to be patient when on the keys. If you do not have the patience to play slow when learning something new, then you will never get the full experience of playing a beautiful, smooth, masterpiece in the end. I always love seeing how my playing has improved after each video of yours I watch!! Thank you Evans!
At 68 and recovering from hand surgery, I came across your amazing video and want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity in giving these valuable lessons. Over 50 years ago, I took accordion lessons and always wanted to learn the piano. I thought it would be an easy transition...wrong! Left hand wouldn’t cooperate. About 20 years ago I thought I’d get serious and actually purchased a baby grand piano. It’s a beautiful instrument that only gets dusted - until now. You’ve inspired me by your easy to follow instructions. And you are mesmerizing!!! I’ve got lots of practicing to do, but I’m more anxious then ever to start! Thank you!!
I watched so many videos trying to find someone who can actually teach piano without going so fast and since I found this channel I am learning a lot faster!
This is glorious, I have been researching "and chords piano" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Nonason Ranincoln Genie - (do a google search )? It is a great exclusive guide for discovering how to play the piano like a pro minus the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my work buddy got amazing success with it.
Thank you...I get it, now to do it over and over and over again....This is truly making me understand. I am your 76 year old student. I can sit down at a piano and make sounds that feel good inside right now. I can't read music, but the cords are what i want to learn. I love your approach and I can't wait to wear my fingers off on both hands. I know I will be a great student for you and if I missed a step I will not hesitate to let you know:-))
Well Paul just read that your 76yrs young.so I'm going to have a bash at this also I'm 64.so here goes I'm just starting to learn also.all the best Diana Graham.
This was great, been searching for "beautiful piano chords" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Nonason Ranincoln Genie - (do a search on google )? It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering how to play the piano like a pro without the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my cousin got excellent results with it.
Hi from Athens, Greece! Thank you so much! I cannot imagine how much work you have done to come to such a marvelous serieses of piano courses. I was making greek songs using just notes by my ear but now its something else!! Thanks again. Keep on!!!
This is phenomenal and I’ve been playing piano since I was four years old. Some of the things you showed me just now I had never known before. Thank you. I think you’re awesome.
Zach your way of explaining to us beginner's in the simplest form makes learning piano fun and engaging. I started to give up around 13 mins but then you reminded me that if it's tough right now it's working. I pushed through and you are right I impressed myself. Thanks from a true follower
53 years old and at last have found a channel that makes me feel enthusiastic and want to learn learn learn . Thank you so much . Greetings from Australia
I'm not gonna only thank you from the bottom of my heart for creating such a brilliant simple video, but for restoring my passion to carry on learning how to play the piano cause I was about to give up as I felt I wasn't getting better. Keep it up, please!❤
Zac, greetings from Ireland! I really appreciate the time and effort you have put into sharing your talent with us. At 60 I am finally overcoming my fear of failure and practicing on a piano that has not been touched since my daughter left home…. You have really simplified both theory and practice - I can’t thank you enough. ☘️
Thanks so much Great teaching style I am like a lot of these old guys (57) as a kid I took 8 years of Toronto Royal Conservatory of Piano so I can read sheet music but my dear old church organ lady teacher pretty much ruined my joy and desire of Piano I don't like classical all I wanted was the ability to jam in a rock band and sing I don't have the talent to memorize or play by ear It is amazing how enjoyable those simple chords can be without getting bogged down with technical terminology I am working on a Floyd Cramer boogie Woogie Flip flop and bop and a Lady Gaga A Million Reasons and a Motown hit Sugar Pie Honey Bunch all them relatively simple chords Stuff like Don't Stop Believing by Journey that's where my musical soul lives
This is amazing. I couldn’t afford piano lessons but your teaching for free has been a true gift. I’m a professional choreographer and dancer and told myself I want to couple my dancing with piano and now that’s becoming possible every time I watch one of your videos.
3 years after this video came out and it’s still teaching people I’m not even near a piano and the way you explain it is so simple and to the point no nonsense truly an amazing teacher
Sir, I hope your pillow is always cold. I hope your cookies are always fresh out the oven, I hope your cat puts in your lap like it loves you, I hope all you lights are green
Read the comment I left about scientifically proven brain benefits for seniors or brain injured people who practice music 5 days a week. I'm a 76 year old semi-retired psychologist, and I'm doing this program for fun and to improve my brain functions. I also walk daily, eat right, and never dreamed I'd find a teacher who used my dad's "chord based method" which he never had time to teach me..never too late!
I’ve ordered a keyboard yesterday and I can’t wait to use it!! I just practice this without using the instrument and I think I already got it. I tried practicing my fingers thinking I had a piano and there were lots of times that I fail combining them, but in the end I can already combine them. Thank you so much for this!! 🥰
I just bought my first set of keys to learn during this quarantine. You have made learning fun, as I have never played before and 4 days later, I am sounding better each day,
Two lessons in and my playing has improved huge .... I learned as a child but singing and guitar was what gave me a career so i dropped piano ... recently ive acquired a piano and ive thrown myself into it ... really surprised how much ive retained and how simple it was to learn chords and know the progressions after playing guitar so long but these lessons are so well instructed that its turned my not so bad playing into something im really proud of. Thanks a million gazillion.
I am 15 years old and am interested in learning the piano. This man has committed a selfless act in creating this video and more like it, and I don't have to tell you how brilliant this is because the rest of the comments do it for me
Thank you zack this is my first lesson on piano it helping me alot your video is so so simple I love how you broke it down so slow and I love how you say pause the video and practice thank you so much
This is literally the best piano learning video I've seen, that 5 step learning technique is incredible, it is my first time playing and I can look outside the window and my mind can wander while playing those 4 coords.
I’m a drummer and started teaching myself guitar and now piano. Just ordered my keyboard and can’t wait to get started. Been watching your videos and super excited to put your tools, tricks and tips to work. Thank you for the simple, well explained tutorials in all of your bud. Wish me luck!!
I was just flicking through, and giving it a whirl and was amazed with myself on what I can do. I’ve always wanted to learn to play piano, watching your tips, really works
I appreciate your willingness and dedication on teaching others the joy you have found, I am 14 and as I have been playing violin for almost 10 months on the treble clef, I decided to learn to be prolific at piano as well as violin, I have taken courses in the past for piano, and the music theory, and I understand how you are teaching cords and am glad you are in such a manor I can easily understand thank you. -Charles.

I'm 63 and just picked up a used keyboard. I took some lessons as a child and tried online lessons before, but it was awful hard. So far, I've got through your first two lessons today and hope to continue with 10 - 30 minutes per day. Thanks Zach and I really want to keep playing.
Awesome Lori, glad you found the lesson helpful! 🎹
I got it! I bought my 8 year old grandson a keyboard for Christmas and decided I needed to learn some basics to encourage him. I’m 65 and never played before. Your teaching style is fantastic. Thank You! 👍😊
Doing this during quarantine is such a good way to actually do something productive
me too
Same
The method is easy
The way he explain it gives me hope .
It is. I played piano when I was younger and now I am back into now.
Zack. I'm a 67 year old man who never played any musical instrument before and you have really slowed it down for my middle aged brain. I think I got it. Great job teaching us beginners.
You do a great job of teaching and explaining. I am legally blind and play by ear. So I’m not looking at your finger positions. I’m glad you can explain them and describe what you are doing. I’m glad you take it slow and steady going step-by-step. That really does help beginners.
😎
I am 42 and starting to learn piano with my daughter. Awesome lessons great progression learning, Adele learning, C major scale, and now this song. Thanks for sharing.
For years, I wanted to learn piano but got overwhelmed with all the other beginner tutorial videos. But this one here is the best. This actually reignited my interest to push through the challenge. Thank you! Focusing on your tutorials now. 💪🏽💪🏽
That's great
Yeah! The other vids just show what keys to press, but its.. Just not explained.
If there so happens to be those and more that fall behind, they are adressed first. Given chance to catch up. If not? Given thought as to what to do in order to possibly push through!
We're being considered. Given the chance we need. For those of us which simply required that, can finally push through. Break through. Good Luck!
Does just watching count against my 10,000 hrs. I’m watching during work and will practice after lol
I'm 95 years old. I've met many teachers and many students. I've never seen such a good tutor in my long life.
Hope you have a beautiful rest of your life,from Canada
Brilliant. I have been playing for 42 years and this is the best video I have seen on the four chords. Awesome hat by the way 🎹
47 yrs old never touched a piano. Spent a few hours on one of your videos and learned lots. I'm going to see where this goes and keep taking your classes. Thanks for teaching it in a way I can understand it. That's a rare talent in itself. Appreciate you. 👊🏼
I don't usually comment on you tube but here goes. I am a 50 year old male who is thinking about learning piano. This is the best video I have come across on her to help me in my lessons. Thank you.
I am 48...let me know how its going for you...i just ordered a keyboard.lol quarantine!!!!
Heyy zack I get it and I really like the way you teach

You are my music Saint! I have been playing guitar for 40 yrs plus and have written more than 100 songs. Transposing my music to piano from guitar will be a blast! You have made this so clear! I am 62 years old by the way and the future looks great!...thanks!
Learning to play these cords made the incredibly daunting task of learning how to play the piano actually seem possible for me. I had tears in my eyes when I finally brought it all together.
Zach you are a brilliant teacher. 50 years ago i got a grade 2 Royal Schools of Music . Never played the piano again and is my biggest regret in life. I am definately taking it up again with your tutorship. Thank you Thankyou for the revival.
That is, no kidding, possibly one of the best TH-cam tutorial ever created. The teaching talent and passion you have is just off this planet.
Totally
Ive been a lead guitarist/song writer for over ten 10 years and it all began with Marty Schwartz "how to solo with four notes" video. This may be the piano equivalent! THANK YOU SIR!
My husband always played this way and how wonderful that I have found someone like yourself to help teach me. The videos are amazing and just after a couple of days, I feel optimistic that I will be able to accomplish this. Gonna sleep on it now and looking forward to getting back to it tomorrow. Thank you so much. What a gift you are providing to those of us who desire to learn.
Thank you Pam. Glad you are finding the videos helpful! 🎹
Wonderful teaching. Can play the guitar, never got to grips with the piano. Feel like I have a way in now. Thanks.
this guy is easy to follow cause he calls out each chord STEP BY STEP AND DOES NOT RUSH! NICE ! KEEP IT UP EVANS!! WELL EXPLAINED
Never touched a piano until today at 42 years old. Bought my first one and played this! I like taking a break and going back and watching my muscle memory kick in. Thank you!!
Why all the comments say this 😭
Hearing the passion in your voice tells me that you truly want to help people learn. Great Job.
I bought this keyboard two weeks ago didn’t know nothing you just taught me something in 5 m five minute I had to take a break. My fingers was hurting I can’t wait to go father. Thank you so much. my God bless you.
I'm 108 years old. This video is way better than the videos we had back in 1924. Just the sound quality is impressive.
😭😭😭

😂he trolling 🧌 @@hi_itsluca
Lol 😂you had video back then?
I've been playing the piano for 40 years and I am an old lady now with a young heart and this video made my day. I learned so much and I followed everything you said!
well done Lisa, keep at it !
Hope you're still keeping atit despite the situation in the world right now
I just started learning the piano a couple days ago and my biggest weakness has been trying to play with both hands. Watching your first 2 lesson videos bas helped so much. I can see so much progress already! I can’t wait to follow along with your other videos because I know I will continue to get better! Thank you, you are a great teacher!
The last time I took piano was like 50 years ago. Typical scenario, I took it because my parents made me. Got out of it probably after a year. I feel like I never got past single note drills and kids Christmas songs. Pretty much hated piano. Now I’ve had a miracle! I’m no longer tone deaf and I’m singing on our church choir and I want to learn piano. I’ve been watching all the beginner piano lessons I can find on TH-cam, and I’ve found your the easiest to follow. I like the handout, single handed left rhythm drills, then right hand chords without moving around the keyboard. Best of all I love following your lighted keys above your keyboard!!! Somehow by watching your keys I don’t have to keep looking down at mine and lose my place when I would normally need to take my eyes off the video to see what I’m doing, if that makes sense. I’m excited to continue practicing your drills and make real progress that I can feel and hear. Thank you for making it accessible for me with little musical experience!
The only thing that almost scared me away at the beginning was when you introduced chords that were not at the root, the way I learned from other videos, but once I got far enough along I saw why. I’m so glad I hung in there so I could see how quickly I would be able to play piano with two hands! That’s crazy and makes me want to learn more! Thank you!
Right..where did this guy come from?...just Great
I'm picking up playing piano again after a long break and one off the ways I build my practice is with your lessons like these. I get the explanations and I can execute it but this 4 chords practice feels "strange" probably because I'm not used to it. When I had piano lessons as a child I don't remember ever having heard with the 4 rhythms and I don't think I was taught this method off chords. I was taught with note reading and reading sheet music, counting and so on and with Jim Thompson books. I may have forgotten it and I haven't played that long as a child, at the most few years. I also never did improvisation neither.
This video feels a bit like jazz style to me, could be wrong cause I've never played jazz on a piano before.
Your first lesson with the 4 patterns (middle, pointer, middle, ring) was a lot easier for me and altogether feels very natural. I'm committed though so I'll work through it with the chords.
Got it Zach! I'm 71 and getting ready to retire and have fun. I've tried a sheet music learning from 'Great Courses' and was demoralized. I just want to riff and have fun not perform boring sheet music. I feel liberated...THANKS!
Your teaching is really working - easy peasy lemon squeezy
WOAH! This is UNREAL! I'm piano beginner, only know some boring melodies and tried to find some basic chords and YES, I did see some of those other videos which were confusing. I put this tutorial video playing from laptop and practiced left had along with you, paused video for rythms, and at the start, tried those four cords but it seemed that it would take few months to master those.... UNTIL you broke those down and provided tips! It's mindblowing when you understand the structure that moving fingers inside the chords makes all the difference, it's EASY. At the end of the video I already know how to play these and now I only need to master these and add rythm. Simply amazing! Thank you so much!
Are you a bot
@@hi_itsluca No. Are you?
@@CandleMan5 maybe…
When I was 6 years old (I'm 61 now) I was in a foster home. While I was there, I was given a few months of piano lessons by a music teacher. I only remember a little bit from those lessons but this is not how I was taught. My first few lessons were all about learning scales and building muscle memory by running scales over and over. Unfortunately I didn't stay at that particular foster home long and I never got to progress much further on the piano. I don't remember much from those lessons but what I do remember is middle C and the C scale. I have always loved the piano. Now I can finally start learning to play the piano because of your videos. Thank you.
I just want to say I am 56 years old and have been playing keyboard since I was 13 so upwards of over 40 years and I find your videos still very helpful to me and helpful for developing new skills in my playing abilities. Thank you very much.
I have actually just tuned in but you gave me an understanding of the keyboard, thank you, it's great to see someone who explains everything every step of the way. I have always loved the piano and with your tutoring, I thank you from the bottom of my heart, I have finally learned something and I'm 55 years old. You read next is called te reo our native language in Aotearoa - New Zealand and translations alongside them.
He kaiako miharo. (An amazing teacher). He nui aku whakamoemiti mo tenei kaiako. (I have a lot of compliments for this teacher.)
I'm 60 yrs old, a beginner, and have been playing songs with chords. This is great! I'm gettin' it, and this really is helping me use my left and right hand more than just playing a note on the left and a chord on the right, although even that's been great. I'm excited to learn more!
Wow
Super helpful tips and straight to the point video. This helped me more than all of the videos I've watched to learn. Thank you!
Your style of teaching is exactly what I wish I had 18 years ago when I started taking lessons. I quit out of frustration because I didn’t have the patience to study and learn how to read sheet music like my teacher wanted me to. Your videos are making me ecstatic to learn and play again!
Awesome Monica. Glad you found the video helpful! 🎹
Helpful
I’m 37 years old. I bought my key board day before yesterday. I have never played the piano before. EVER. I’ve learned more from your videos in 2 days than I EVER thought I’d ever know. These videos are perfect for BEGINNERS! Can’t wait to watch the rest! Thank you!
how can i learn aii the keys fasterfaster
Zach, this lesson absolutely SLAPS, I got a piano today, and have no prior practice, and my wife is so impressed!
Hi! Turning 66 on 26 Jan. and never played a piano (not even when I passed through Ar-kansas 🙂). 50 years of playing guitar and very comfortable with this through all genres I like. Can't say enough about having even a little theory knowledge in my toolkit. Chord 1-3-5 and 1-4-5 setups relate easily here so it makes sense. The interest (desire) to play a new instrument is there and I was looking for a good spot to launch this quest. Thanks for blessing us with this chance to learn a little from the gift you were given. Happy New Year to All! - Jim
you can tell he genuinely cares and wants to share the knowledge and beauty of how much enrichment you can gain in life from being able to create music. and he wants to empower people with that skill! but also i doubt he’s interested in constantly teaching beginner piano classes...haha that’s gotta be drainer for advanced players so this is wise he is doing this bc it provides a service to others to get engaged and he now has more time, energy, and network to teach, be fulfilled, even some extra well deserved financial abundance from creating new students. thank you!!
shorturl.at/hnwAU if you want to play piano i can suggest this
Hey! I’ve tried this so many times and I’ve never found a video that really helped me. Right now I finished your video and I am so happy that I did. In all the other videos I’ve watched I always felt like I could never do it but this one prove me that I just needed a teacher that could teach me it like you do. Thank you very much I will definitely continue watching your videos and you just earned a new subscriber
I really appreciate the way you break down each chord progressively and really drill it into our memories; first time piano learner here, thank you very much!!
Thank you love it
DUDE I LOVE YOUR ENERGY! I have the attention span of a goldfish but I stuck with you till the end and now I'm singing with the piano! You didn't just teach me how to play piano though, you taught me how to apply myself to life! You are a treasure. I genuinely felt so much love for you. This actually might be the first comment I've ever made on TH-cam but I hopped on here just to say thanks for being you. We need more people like you!!! Excited to check out your website :)
yo man I just started trying to learn the piano , and hadn't really got too far, but after watching and actually learning chords and I've really learned how to play a little something. Man I'm 61 and disabled and really am trying to play the piano. Again thank you for your time.
Thank you sir, I’ve been yearning to play the piano for awhile and I’ve been wanting to play worship songs for the Lord as I sing as well. Thank you for making this available and free to everyone. In this trying times music is such a peace and a way to relief all your stress! God bless you And he will prosper you in all you do as you give , you will receive your harvest ! Looking forward to more of your videos
Thank you! I am in my 60's. I am up to Suzuki Book 2. I am learning a lot of great, busy classical pieces, but I want to play chords so that I can do contemporary things too. This is VERY helpful! I think I want to do all of your online piano courses to balance out what I am learning. You are going slow enough and you are very clear. It is easy to keep up and I am looking forward to learning more.
I found this site by accident and have to say ...I have been trying for a looong time to learn piano ...30 minutes each night for 3 nights did more for me than a year of messing around ...this is truly gold ...thank you sooo much...I am inspired.
I'm self taught (20+yrs ago!) and these videos are filling in the gaps! It's amazing how your muscle memory falls to the same pattern, I'm enjoying the challenge to learn new patterns. Thank you so much for doing this, amazing stuff! 👌
Awesome Lucy. Glad you enjoyed the video! 🎹
Zac you inspire me to practice, practice, practice most times for 2 hours! I have advanced and it's super easy now with variations. I am a senior who mostly taught myself the hard way till I discovered your tutorials. Playing the piano during lockdown inspired me to play songs to keep my pain at bay! Thank you for the free lessons, and your encouragement! You are awesome!
I started learning the piano a few months ago and used other video tutorials, but I had been struggling with coordinating my hands. Your video helped me get it down in less than an hour 😱
You’re a great teacher! Thanks so much.
Same
Working on it. I like the energy and the style.
I’ve been playing piano for 45 years. Moving the middle notes for the chords and especially the four rhythms is extremely helpful. Can’t wait to continue these beginner lessons.
Thanks Chris. Glad you liked the video! 🎹
Same here I’ve been playing a while and this is awesome
I am someone that eager to learn since I was a kid, attended a music lesson and on day 1 I quit as I just can't find myself to learn the keys. Up until now, I still want to learn as I also love to sing with my children but couldn't play any instruments. Put all my girls into a music class and now they are starting to play. Today I DECIDED to fulfill my dreams of wanting to play music especially keyboard so that's why I am here. Just started and already learning simple keys as per instructed by the tutor today. A bit confuse but I am determine to continue my music lesson thank you so much for your time and especially to simplify the explanation down to my level as a beginner, God bless you and really good to learn during this lock down. I remember how I first started learning how to use a typewriter, putting my fingers in a proper position but I managed and I always think of this as a typewriter too but I found this much harder ahah I am struggling to place my fingers especially my little finger lahah lol but never mind I will try my very best as I really want to sing and play at the same time with my children,
👍👍😍

@@elizabeterubina6639 and??? Your point exactly??! Have you not been impacted by another human being doing great things that you can't stop writing about it! This guy has truly inspired me to be better and I actually was on the verge of giving up on my gift!
So do the world a favour and positively influence someone's life that they take time out to show their gratitude to you, if not...then become a positive person for your own well being.
Monday a 94yr old lady from church gave my 6 year old grandson a 1942 Steinway upright because she was moving and couldn't take it with her. I've been using your video so I can teach both of us. Thank you for having these videos.
I cannot not thank you enough Zach! I have wanted to play piano my entire life, but work, raising a family, being low income and with Learning disabilities has kept me busy. I didn't think I could learn, but you have shown me "The Light!" You are an amazing and wonderful teacher. Thank you to the ends of the earth, and around again. I discovered a piano organ the other day in the library of my seniors residence, and finally I can learn!!!
3rd day on piano (never even touched one before); learned it along with your video exactly on the 15 minute mark. Does not say anything about my skill, but about how FANTASTIC of a teacher you are. Man you are awesome! Thank you.
This guy is a legend, giving music hacks is good for the piano community.
My guy these aren't piano hacks, literally everyone in the "piano community" knows that these are just simple hand motions that make you zero progress and skill. This guy literally robs people with classic sales techniques and piano knowledge for you to buy his "course"
Lui è bravo ,io no .La tecnica sempra buona.
You can now expand step-by-step into Ballad style, Blues, Jazz, Ragtime, Improvisation and creating your own melodies. You will even learn how to read music AS you learn how to ‘play-by-ear’ and eventually you will be able to play some amazing Classical pieces. visit here 4LearnPianoEasy.blogspot.com
Bro that legit just taught me what i been tryin to learn for 28 years..respect
I shall sleep in it for sure . I’m sure my fingers will be loosening too. I appreciate this. Have always wanted to do this . I told myself I’m doing this for my Mum too and the brain recalibrated & started getting it . Thanks
Completely new to piano. I watched your beginner video and then this one. So far it's actually kind of impressive, your teaching style is better than any other I've found
Hey Mike,
As a teacher, I'm impressed with your constant referral to how we learn. The idea of the self learning through the tough part is super. The reason for repeat is muscle memory, reasons for different types of activities really pushes the student on. And best of all asking us to write out what was good and what needs work. I really love your teaching.
One thing I myself seem to have a problem with is the f chord on the right hand. It seems my thumb becomes lazy and I forget to add it with the whole chord. This doesn't seem to happen with the other three.
Great beginning! Thank you.
Pat
I learned more in 2 lessons how to play be ear than all the professional lessons I've had. Great job.
Good instruction
Q 0
Me too!!
Watching this video was such a great help! By the end of it there was a noticeable difference in my overall playing, smoother and much more consistent performance. I find myself giving up on many piano tutorials because they go over the lesson too quickly for me to follow and understand everything effectively. The thing I love most about Evans videos is he gives you the opportunity to take your time, which in turn helps you obtain the most information as well as learning to be patient when on the keys. If you do not have the patience to play slow when learning something new, then you will never get the full experience of playing a beautiful, smooth, masterpiece in the end. I always love seeing how my playing has improved after each video of yours I watch!! Thank you Evans!
At 68 and recovering from hand surgery, I came across your amazing video and want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generosity in giving these valuable lessons. Over 50 years ago, I took accordion lessons and always wanted to learn the piano. I thought it would be an easy transition...wrong! Left hand wouldn’t cooperate.
About 20 years ago I thought I’d get serious and actually purchased a baby grand piano. It’s a beautiful instrument that only gets dusted - until now. You’ve inspired me by your easy to follow instructions. And you are mesmerizing!!! I’ve got lots of practicing to do, but I’m more anxious then ever to start! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for sharing your awesome story!! Your kind and supportive words truly mean the world 😊
I watched so many videos trying to find someone who can actually teach piano without going so fast and since I found this channel I am learning a lot faster!
I would tell my teachers this when i was in grade school no wonder i got left back lol.
This is glorious, I have been researching "and chords piano" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Nonason Ranincoln Genie - (do a google search )?
It is a great exclusive guide for discovering how to play the piano like a pro minus the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my work buddy got amazing success with it.
Thank you...I get it, now to do it over and over and over again....This is truly making me understand. I am your 76 year old student. I can sit down at a piano and make sounds that feel good inside right now. I can't read music, but the cords are what i want to learn. I love your approach and I can't wait to wear my fingers off on both hands. I know I will be a great student for you and if I missed a step I will not hesitate to let you know:-))
Well Paul just read that your 76yrs young.so I'm going to have a bash at this also I'm 64.so here goes I'm just starting to learn also.all the best Diana Graham.
You said it well Paul. I can't wait to be able to smile while playing music through my fingers to my ears

This is phenomenal and I’ve been playing piano since I was four years old. Some of the things you showed me just now I had never known before. Thank you. I think you’re awesome.
I was thinking the same thing! I only played through sheet music and this is great!
When you said about a piano community it accually made me emotional. It was sweet.
Zach your way of explaining to us beginner's in the simplest form makes learning piano fun and engaging. I started to give up around 13 mins but then you reminded me that if it's tough right now it's working. I pushed through and you are right I impressed myself. Thanks from a true follower

You have really simplified both theory and practice - I can’t thank you enough. ☘️
Thanks so much
Great teaching style
I am like a lot of these old guys (57) as a kid I took 8 years of Toronto Royal Conservatory of Piano so I can read sheet music but my dear old church organ lady teacher pretty much ruined my joy and desire of Piano I don't like classical all I wanted was the ability to jam in a rock band and sing I don't have the talent to memorize or play by ear It is amazing how enjoyable those simple chords can be without getting bogged down with technical terminology
I am working on a Floyd Cramer boogie Woogie Flip flop and bop and a Lady Gaga A Million Reasons and a Motown hit Sugar Pie Honey Bunch all them relatively simple chords Stuff like Don't Stop Believing by Journey that's where my musical soul lives
This is amazing. I couldn’t afford piano lessons but your teaching for free has been a true gift. I’m a professional choreographer and dancer and told myself I want to couple my dancing with piano and now that’s becoming possible every time I watch one of your videos.
3 years after this video came out and it’s still teaching people I’m not even near a piano and the way you explain it is so simple and to the point no nonsense truly an amazing teacher
Sir, I hope your pillow is always cold. I hope your cookies are always fresh out the oven, I hope your cat puts in your lap like it loves you, I hope all you lights are green

Read the comment I left about scientifically proven brain benefits for seniors or brain injured people who practice music 5 days a week. I'm a 76 year old semi-retired psychologist, and I'm doing this program for fun and to improve my brain functions. I also walk daily, eat right, and never dreamed I'd find a teacher who used my dad's "chord based method" which he never had time to teach me..never too late!
I’ve ordered a keyboard yesterday and I can’t wait to use it!! I just practice this without using the instrument and I think I already got it. I tried practicing my fingers thinking I had a piano and there were lots of times that I fail combining them, but in the end I can already combine them. Thank you so much for this!! 🥰
🤗
I just bought my first set of keys to learn during this quarantine. You have made learning fun, as I have never played before and 4 days later, I am sounding better each day,
Two lessons in and my playing has improved huge .... I learned as a child but singing and guitar was what gave me a career so i dropped piano ... recently ive acquired a piano and ive thrown myself into it ... really surprised how much ive retained and how simple it was to learn chords and know the progressions after playing guitar so long but these lessons are so well instructed that its turned my not so bad playing into something im really proud of. Thanks a million gazillion.
Ok I didn’t think I could do this and I’ve had a piano 13 years just sat there... now I’m playing and it feels sooooo good.
I am 15 years old and am interested in learning the piano. This man has committed a selfless act in creating this video and more like it, and I don't have to tell you how brilliant this is because the rest of the comments do it for me
Thank you zack this is my first lesson on piano it helping me alot your video is so so simple I love how you broke it down so slow and I love how you say pause the video and practice thank you so much
Well I am 11 and I love this video
Playing the c note and the G note in in the same octave every time is really helpful genius. Thanks
Hey Zack I got it lol! But really..40 and finally learning piano and it’s feeling pretty great! I’m playing around with this pattern!
This is literally the best piano learning video I've seen, that 5 step learning technique is incredible, it is my first time playing and I can look outside the window and my mind can wander while playing those 4 coords.
I’m a drummer and started teaching myself guitar and now piano. Just ordered my keyboard and can’t wait to get started. Been watching your videos and super excited to put your tools, tricks and tips to work. Thank you for the simple, well explained tutorials in all of your bud. Wish me luck!!
Good luck 🎉

I was just flicking through, and giving it a whirl and was amazed with myself on what I can do. I’ve always wanted to learn to play piano, watching your tips, really works
I appreciate your willingness and dedication on teaching others the joy you have found, I am 14 and as I have been playing violin for almost 10 months on the treble clef, I decided to learn to be prolific at piano as well as violin, I have taken courses in the past for piano, and the music theory, and I understand how you are teaching cords and am glad you are in such a manor I can easily understand thank you. -Charles.
