I love your mellow yet highly effective method of teaching. I kind of reached an epiphany in watching your video. That was a simple arpeggio pattern running up and down the keyboard yet sounds beautiful. Now I realize you don't need fancy running arpeggios when a simple pattern will impress your audiences just as much. Thank you!
I'm glad to know that you enjoy my style of teaching. I've never been a hyper "in your face" type of communicator. I'm also happy to know that the video helped you reach a musical epiphany!
Great video, by way of a suggestion. I'd love to see you cover modulation- even just 1 aspect of it because i know its a rabbit hole and a half. But I'd love to hear you talk about a particular modulation technique. Thanks for the great content. I look forward to hearing you speak more about those "especially fun" diminished arpeggios in a future video.
Like you I try to avoid rabbit holes in music. But learning modulation is definitely not one if them. When playing in one key then at a certain place moving smoothly to another key is so beautiful so dramatic so impressive it's definitely worth learning and adding to your repertoire of techniques.
Great video like always 👍I have a question about "fingers". I see you have "thicker" fingers. I have it the same way. And because of that sometimes it's problematic for me to play deeper on the piano. Especially when I have to squez a finger between 2 black keys to press the white key. Do you have any tips on that? Maybe a video for people with bigger hands? 😃Will appriciate any help.
I sometimes say that I have "little sausages" for fingers. I tend to just instinctually avoid trying to squeeze a finger between two black keys. I'll check and see if I can find more information about how to deal with this problem.
I'm playing a Yamaha CP-4 stage piano, but the sound is actually coming from a grand piano "plug in" on my main studio computer, running ProTools. The sound is also processed with compression, EQ and reverb. However, the keyboard itself sounds pretty good as well, and I've used it in many live performance settings.
The answer to this excellent question would make a good subject for a video. Generally speaking, you can start your practice time with a few technical exercises, spend some time learning a new song, playing through songs you have already learned, and just "messing around" (i.e. improvising).
There is lot of information on this topic, too much for this limited space. I recommend a book I have recently been studying: "What Every Pianist Needs to Know About the Body", by Thomas Mark. Available through Amazon (I'm not affiliated with Amazon).

This is very nice! I enjoy your teaching style. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for your kind words, and thanks for watching.
Very nicely, slowly and thoroughly you have taught how to play arpeggios ..!! Thank you soooooo much Sir. Lord Swaminarayan bless you and your Team.
Thank you for your kind words and blessings! I appreciate your support.
I wish I had seen your videos two years ago. Very good basic techniques.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you found the techniques helpful.

I talked about modulation in an earlier video, but that was a while ago. It's definitely a subject I will come back to!
