Yes, I agree completely. Tom demonstrates relatively simple concepts and then ends up playing something very cool and more complex. I wish he would teach some of the more complex stuff that he shows off.
@@jhn1987 That's an interesting observation, Actually, when I do the more complex things, it's often actually not any more complex, it's just FASTER. I'm doing the simple things, but FASTER, with more dynamics. It goes to show how important the simple things are!
Tom is still one of my absolute favourite online Teachers...his teaching ability is gifted. I like Tom Aimee Nolte and Johnny May And also the 'New Jazz' german bloke. They are exceptional teachers.
Astounding insights even from the outset. That conceptualization of blues being differentiated from classical music by its possible use of concurrent major and minor rather than transitional major and minor was just utterly revelatory. Thank you.
Well, thank you, having suffered from a stroke last year, and losing the ability to play guitar do you too, not having a left hand, I thought I'd focus on the piano with my right hand, and I also I play the piano, understand theory so this gives me something to work on and practice with. I watched this several times and appreciate your patience and teaching style.
Você é completamente o oposto de um professor de piano de conservatório. A questão de "feeling" é tão importante e tão ausente dos conservatórios onde se ensina exclusivamente a seguir partituras... Eu sempre critiquei o ensino "quadrado", retilíneo dos conservatórios. Ninguém lá ensina a sentir, a usufruir da música. Devia haver mais professores de musica como você.
Excellent, as usual. But a little bit different this time. Thanks for telling us to forget about theory and to... trust ourselves, let the fingers move, find our own versions, our own music. That's the essence of the blues... and isn't the "blues" the essence of everything ? Cheers from Paris ;-)

These videos always reach a point where frankly, Tom is just showing off. Those are my favorite parts.

A lot of great ideas in here. I took the Complete Musician Essential Course and I would highly recommend the class. It is great.
Same here. Awesome program! Nice to have the structure and Tom is an excellent industry steward for the art of piano music.

Thankyou for your kind comments. Yes - emotion and feeling are so important in music. It's of the highest value :)
THANK YOU! 🙂🙋♂️

I've always included flat-7 in the major scale.
@richardbowker1338 yes that's a great sounding scale as well for Blues. Mixolydian! 1 2 3 4 5 6 b7 1
Ah the scale! Ask Oscar, Yubie , the count, teddy, ray, ( some of my favs) about scales. Any tell u what you are sharing ;)
