I just saw one of your shorts and had to come and leave a comment. You have put in the work brother and it's inspirational to see not only your natural talent but also your dedication to turn that talent into something that shines. Great work keep it up. Not that anything could stop you but if you ever feel like it can just know how far your reach has spread and its touching peoples hearts.
This is such a motivator for me. I have been playing self taught for about 4 months, and I was not entirely new to music, as sI played cello in high school and drums for many years and have always listened to a very very wide range of music and listened too it in a way to be able to know what every instrument is going to do, and even i would think of modifications or variations that would fit by ear. I am four months in and I have only had the desire to play music i create, i just am not tempted to learn songs written by other people, because it just doesn't really get me engaged. When you said being able to sit down and improvise a full song for family at a year that is something I was able to do to some degree by my second month. I don't know why or how, I think it might have to do with just the way i listened to music my whole life, it was never a background sound for me or just a melodic phrase, i was almost obsessive about being able to hear every instrument at any time and know what they would do, I think it gave me some kind of creative outlet musically when I did not know how to play a instrument other than drums and I forgot most of the cello I learned. This lead to what I could probably say is about in time spent, close to 10 years of time actively and deeply listening to music. Once I got just a little bit comfortable actually playing the keys it was like that whole database of music I have in my head made everything sense. Just from the fact I had heard so much music, a lot of it was instrumental and kind of atypical too, thinkk frank zappa, the flashbulb, worlds end girlfriend, a lot of stuff that some might consider more on the avant-garde side but not totally, just an acquired taste I guess. To see that a solid year goal is something I am comfortable doing is something I needed to hear because nobody in my family is musical, my mom was born deaf in one hear and cant recognize pitch at all, i mean at all and my dad just doesnd do music, so i have kind of just done all this privately and its kind of existed in my old world without any concept of where i should be in terms of progression or anything like that because it wasn't a primary concern, i just really enjoyed producing as many sounds as I could by finding interesting combinations of chords and patterns. I might just be somewhat of a sound fetishest because I want to find things that are unfamiliar to me. Thigns like that monster 6 note chord in Petrushka is a good example, that is about a good as it gets to me. thank you for posting these videos, i have stayed away from lessons because I only was familiar with classical lessons and that is just antithetical to my goal. I was surprised when i learned how many trained classical pianists can not improvise. It kind of shocked me because I thought that was kinda like the purpose of learning the instrument is to be able to sit down and play whatever, as it develops. I didnt know it was so piece focused that many don't even bother attempting to learn how to improvise it. I am absolutely interested in jazz piano lessons know that I see what a routine looks like and where the focus lies.
Sooo helpful. Your first observation about there being an inundation of videos nowadays is real. As a self taught learner, watching so many random videos about theory, seemingly understanding, then being overwhelmed and lost when you sit down at the keys is frustrating. Thanks so much!
Thank you, Victor! So glad you liked it. Feel free to join the Discord community too! We will have free live streams and group hangs. Link to join is in video description. Cheers!
Hi! Great video! However, I think I noticed some contradictions between this one and an earlier one called "5 Crucial Practice Routine Tips I Wish I’d Learned 20 Years Ago", which left me a little confused. First of all, in the earlier video, you recommend practicing "thematically", but in this longer routine, yes, Oleo seems appears three times, but the overall variety is pretty broad (Like Someone In Love, Kieth voicings, Alone Together). Also, I don´t see how staggering repetition is integrated in any of these routines. I might have missed something here and would greatly appreciate your thoughts on this. Thank you for all your content, feels like a robbery to watch them for free!
I’ll just say this; there’s nothing I desire more than being equipped with the Skills to tear down Standards on sight and have a deep enough harmonic toolbag to truly represent the lines I’m mentally hearing and unable to currently get out. I’ve probably got 2 - 2 1/2 hours daily to dedicate to this pursuit and seeing a practice infrastructure example like this makes me feel like this could be exactly what I need at this moment in my path. Thanks Noah! I’d love to be one of your students one day; this is my passion.
Hey Noah! I've been following this channel for a while. I've written my goals down before but I've written and refined them after watching this. The part I'd love to copy from this lesson plan is to be able to play continuous lines (like you demonstrated) after 6 months. I'd love to hear your thoughts on how to approach this or what resources / lessons are worth digging into. Thanks!
Nice catch! Mine's arriving in December! As a long time keyboard player and lover of pitch wheels, the Osmose is a dream. It's more delicate than I imagined, but after playing for a while it truly is so expressive. I could play string sections on it all day!
@@NoahKellman I wait till a tv prog that I don,t like comes on and practise instead.Sometimes after a few weeks I lose interest and feel,but after a break it returns.Overall 20min per day .Scientists say that we remember the beginning and the end of study .mmmm

My pleasure, Jack! Thanks for your comment
Can I just mention that besides you of course making an incredible video here, your home is lovely!
@@AlexanderHelt thank you Alexander! I do miss that spot
What perfect timing, I was just thinking this week about how to best organize a practice routine!
Awesome, I hope this helps!
@@NoahKellman I've gotten a lot out of your videos, thanks for uploading and for everything you do!

Sir. God bless you. Sigh. Your videos are fantastic.

Thanks, there are a lot of good ideas here.
thank you so much for this!!!!!
Man I have to do bare minimum 4 or more hrs. A day! And I already bought your jazz improv toolkit! Now I just need a sighting reading regimen 😬
4h a day? That’s great!! I’m jealous, never get to do that anymore. You and me both need a sight reading regimen…
Sight read a Bach chorale every day!
@@trentbridenpianoyou know of any available free with melody mostly on treble clef one could use for trumpet?
Hey! Wonderful stuff. Much appreciated. What keyboard do you use/recommend ? Thanks
You're amazing man thanks for making this!!
16:55 good nice!

Thanks so much, Gene! Happy holidays!
Great tips, Noah! I’m eyeballing that Osmose behind you - how do you like it? Looks really cool!

As an adult will I be able to learn jazz and solo? And I can't read notes :( I only learn by playing by ear and chords.
Learning by ear is how most early jazz players learned. Erroll Garner famously couldn't read music and it didn't stop him being an amazing player.
@@GabeSyme Thanks for the encouragement
♥️♥️♥️
Thanks 😊 for this. But is it possible to learn classical music and jazz music together ?
its easy to lose heart practising and requires discipline.but I limit myself to 20mins
20 min blocks are great! How many do u do per day, or you mainly stick to one?
@@NoahKellman I wait till a tv prog that I don,t like comes on and practise instead.Sometimes after a few weeks I lose interest and feel,but after a break it returns.Overall 20min per day .Scientists say that we remember the beginning and the end of study .mmmm
Ah, but will Jazz help me get a cute boyfriend?
Hahaha believe it or not it just might

You probably just feel that way, but you don’t actually! Just my guess
