I wish someone would create a video about the later stride sound late 30s to 40s. The left hand technique moved away from the ragtime-ish umpah to the legato tenth walks pioneered by tatum and earl hines. It’s a real beautiful sound.
O my!
Merci for this. I'll be breaking this down and using building blocks.

Thanks for all the great lessons!
Very nice lesson! I love stride so this was super helpful, keep up the amazing work.
Thank you Jonny for this amazing tutorial🙌, I really learned a lot from this. This is especially great, because the left hand can be combined with basic right hands. Therefore you can play this song endlessly👏. It is just so much fun, so thanks again!
Great lesson Jonny!
Thank you!
Wow! Thank you!
Your a great inspiration! Learning a lot from you thank you.
Wow, love that style of music!
Lots of effort put in to make it looks easy and understandable. A Good Teacher...AWESOME!
Amazing lesson.. Thank you, squire!
Very nice, I can't believe this was three years old before TH-cam sent it my way.
I am fortunate enough to be blessed with hands that easily stretch a tenth, so I'll be starting with this and then adding some left-hand walk-ups and walk-downs.
One of my lifelong inspirations has been the late Dr. John. This video seems to provide a solid foundation upon which to build some of Dr. John's famous New Orleans left-hand and right-hand riffs.
Great! ♥️
Love this
This is why you are a great teacher. I was lucky to find you playing Happy Birthday to You, which was the best of best versions online. Thank you!
Very nice!
Johnny always gets it on the head !!!
I’ve been waiting for a stride lesson for some time now!
Yes, I did too . . .
As a big fan of Fats Waller, I send you a great thank you and greetings from Argentina.
I always love this kind of piano style, thanks fats weller should be proud of u 😎👍🏼
You have a really good taste for phrasing
🔥lesson Mr. Johnny
Very, very good
Well done
These videos would get more views but we're all busy on the website watching ALL the videos!!!
Thank you
Hey Jonny! I first played this on the trombone and am now returning (many years later) to my first instrument, the piano. As the son of two talented amateur musicians with a piano in their bedroom, you can guess what I was doing at 5:00am every morning as the oldest of three. Cheers!
Wonderful memories!
I would subscribe with Jonny anytime regardless of age ! As they say “ Life without music is a mistake “. Jonny gave me all the necessary tools to correct that mistake.
I also got the CP4... but it's nice to see someone who actually knows how to play, play it.
Wow
As I'm sure you're aware, Jonny, and for anyone interested, instead of playing G min. --> C 7 in the third measure, it's traditionally C Maj./E ---> C Aug./E.
Isn't there room for all kinds of interpretation?
@@TribalSooz There is a 'best' in which you might see some math beauty... 1-4;2-5; &c.
Good point Tom! The progression you mention is in many fake books. However, I prefer the 2-5-1 harmony to the F major chord.
The width of stereo.... 🔥🔥🔥
Hello Jonny, I know I'm about 7 months too late, however I cannot to express how much this lesson helped me, Ain't Misbehavin' is one of my favorite songs from Fats! I also wanted to ask about that bit you were playing at 0:14, is that improv or is it a piece. If it's a piece, I'd really like to learn it.
Sounds a bit like 'After You've Gone' but I might be wrong!
@@tomharrisisacommonname Oh, thank you!
@@aydencurry370 it is indeed after you've gona a popular stride tune often played as a duet. I believe johhny has a course on it in his website.
muy bien por el codigo musical
Thanks for this, and the others but don't see where to download on the site, it just shows the tutorial but no download link. Cheers
Hi Jonny, Thank you for these tips. What about the pedal? Should I push the pedal on the root until the chord?
BTW, we all love you bud, you're the best of the bestestest. ;-)
this really depends on the situation. If you're playing a fast stride piece I wouldn't suggest using the pedal. Altough if you're playing a slow ballad in stride it can very helpful to connect the basenltes and the chords and produce a fuller sound.
In the fourth measure you keep saying and playing F major seven but it’s notated as an F6. Which do you prefer?
11:30 This is how to teach, NEVER: put middle finger on G and and ring finger on B etc.; Johnny gives the CHORD NAME then the 'treatment' is what I call it.
Sorry maybe this is a supid question...should the sustain pedal be released and then pressed again when changing from root note to rootless voicing with the left hand? or being a rootless voicing the bass note must not be interrupted because it would be like playing another chord?
(Sorry for my bad English)
Hi, great video, thanks a lot 😊 Should the F6 chord be a Fmaj7 instead ? It’s written F6 on the sheet, but the notes on the staff seem to be those of a Fmaj7 (if I’m not mistaken) and you keep saying Fmaj7... I’m a bit puzzled 😄
lucy jazz great question! You can play either an F Major 7 or an F6 on that measure and they will both sound good. In other words, F Major 7 and F6 are substitute chords.
Piano With Jonny Thanks a lot Jonny for taking the time to answer my question !
love the vids but I've never heard anyone plug their website throughout the ENTIRE video lesson. I think we all get it. How about once at the beginning of the vid and once at the end as a reminder? Otherwise, very nice video.
hi guys, the greatest results that i've had was with the Denelle Piano Lesson (just google it) without a doubt the best idea that I've followed.
Misbahvin ?
Brilliant pianist.Good teacher but sometimes too fast
He gives tons of valuable information in a very condensed format. The idea is that you take small chunks of the video and work on just that for a few hours, days or weeks before moving on to the next chunk. Haha one video takes me about a month to learn! 🤣
Heh -- that's why God gave us the "pause" button. :)
