I love this. You are not only showing technique and theory, you are explaining the emotion of the music. Perfect, Keep it up.
It gets much better every time I come back. Great job. Thank you.
Thank you very much for this video Christian, I have learnt the differents between playing notes and playing music
Same as always.. teaching it from the soul, not from the book.. 👌👍
Christian, greetings from the U.S.! This video is absolutely amazing. I love the way that you give the notes you want us to pay attention to so much character as you describe what you're doing. This is incredibly helpful to me as a beginning piano player! Cheers!
I’ve played blues on the piano and organ and guitar for a long time and I truly enjoyed the lesson. It offered new ways to look at and leverage the scale.
Thanks so much from Southern California...
Best lesson on the blues Scale I've come across. Many thanks, you have a fantastic way of conveying the emotion and dynamic of the music you are playing. Many thanks.
You have explained the blues scale brilliantly .... 👌 Thanks 👍
I was like 667! Thank God! Loved the pro tips and metaphors. That will stick in my brain. You are the best! 👍
Really enjoyed learning... keyboard is smoking......thank you so much.....from North East England
Discovering you on utube was the best thing that happened to me in my learning to play blues piano thanks Christian be safe, you are the greatest piano teacher I wish I lived in Germany so I could have private lessons
mahendra D thanks Mahendra!:-)
This is such a brilliant tutorial I wish I’d have found this ages ago it just makes sense of everything and in a simple manner, thank you for sharing this with us ...
So far you are the best instructor. Thanks
10 minutes in it and learned much more than after 3 hours of random tutorials. Great great way of teaching !
Honestly I am really excited to get this lesson. I had given up on blue scales but this teacher has made it so easy. I cannot believe it. Within 5min I was playing something
It's true
@@rosemarynyambura4015 in 5 minutes? :O I'm still trying to run my fingers up and down the scale correctly and I've been at it for a while now ahaha
I can not thank you enough for these suggestions. I was looking for something to get me thinking in a blues mode and this was incredibly helpful. I kept pausing the video to experiment around and I'm guessing that's exactly what the aim of this video was. Bravo, you've definitely earned my subscription.
Ii like it you teaching the blues and adding a story line. I get to understand it better. Thank you so much
Your commentary is as interesting as your teaching. Enjoyed thoroughly. .... God bless you bro
Thanks sis!
These Videos are really good, it shows great kindness making videos showing so much knowledge.
In a way so musicians can absorb it.
Another great lesson by a great teacher you help me achieve another mile stone in my learning blues music,Nobody has talk to me this evening with my expensive Piano Lessons thank you again
Excellent lesson. Small building blocks. Focus on hearing and working with just a few notes - opening up the possibilities.
This is such a useful tutorial (in any key)!
Hey everyone, your not going to get a better explanation of how to play the blues by anyone else on TH-cam other than the slow, methodical explanation of Christian. Just brilliant!
Very helpfull the way you teach us..thanks so much..
Thanks a lot. Great way of explaining the storytelling on the keys
LOVE THIS!!! Thank you....you stand out from the crowd!...relevant and interesting.

Hallo Herr BLUESY AWESOME MEISTER Christian Fuchs. Super Klasse wie Sie den BLUES erklären und vermitteln. Sehr verständlich und transparent. Vielen herzlichen Dank. Hab´ mich sofort ans Klavier gesetzt und versucht zu spielen was Sie empfehlen und es klingt nach BLUES obwohl ich ein Anfänger bin. YEAH MAN YEAH. Danke. I ❤ to play the BLUES und Sie ERMÖGLICHEN es. Toll. GREETINGS FROM SPAIN. WISHING YOU THE BEST. Keep on "ROCK THAT HOUSE" thrilling stuff what you present in all of your tutorials. CHEERS.
Best video on the topic, love your story telling approach. 🎹🎶
"If you can't hear the tension, you have something in your ears like, Pokemon.
Or pasta"
😂🤣😂❤️
I think “inertia” is the word. Great lesson Christian. Thanks.
Seeing it's just New Years for 2022,I was thinking of Champagne bottle corks. Haha.
Truthfully if id seen this tut 55 years ago my life would have taken a very very different course.
can’t thank enough for these amazing lessons... and humor 🤣
The magic is on its way, thanks man! =)
I've watch almost all the famous tutorial videos on yt, and this one with 20k views explained it in the best way. Thank you I'm subscribing
Thanks and welcome!
Thanks 👌👍
Amazing! That was both hilarious and mind-opening!
THIS is the BEST explanation of blues I've ever heard. Thanks for the video and thank you for the blues emotion.
Love the way you teach !!!
Absolute genius, I could listen to your explanations and stories all day from down here in Australia 🇦🇺
Maybe they will give me a slot on Netflix ...
@@ChristianFuchsBlues, you're definitely 'different' - different is good mate :)
Thank you!
A great tutorial. Thanks to this video I got a little light up in my head and some ideas came to my mind. I go to the piano to practice. I think it will enrich my new boogie-woogie :)
Your videos are true gems and so is your heartfelt teaching. Just when I thought they couldn't get any better, inspiring, and helpful, this video came out. Looking forward to the sequels my friend! Thank you so much. This video will be considered a timeless classic teaching years from now.
That sound just great, Tota! That they get better might also be due to my own learning process with online teaching. Keep on rocking!
💨Very much appreciated! I'm just recently discovering your videos, and the elements of blues , with your approach to using them, is what I've looked for in music tutorials for quite a while. 🌈🎶🎹
Thanks! Great I found you, too!
Very good, important information clearly explained. Thanks for posting. Very helpful.
Thank you
You are first to show me big learning secret..TH-cam ar slwr speed! Thx!
wow, i m learning to play the blues, thnks!
This one of the best and most helpful videos I have seen on using the C blues scale! Loved the joke about the homeless musician as well. Actually made me laugh out loud. Many thanks for putting these instructional videos on TH-cam Christian. They are a great help and I have learnt so much from them! Keep up the good work.
Thanks John!
terrific
Uh uh... Ain't comin' home yet Momma!
Christian thank you for sharing your coaching skills with us and showing us beginners how to both understand and create tension in our playing. Really appreciate your work.
Thank you, I have improvisation lessons at the Conservatory but nobody explains these things. You are great!
Muchas gracias for the lesson, I’m barely a beginner and I love the blues so this video is a lot of help.
Excellent lesson, thanks. I play guitar in a covers band but I've just started playing keyboard as well. This lesson gives great ideas on how to improvise on some of our songs.
Christian! You are the best😀 At least for me. Your bow and arrow allegorie is great and funny. And the one with the inertia force also. By the way, My name for the root is „home base“ like in baseball. I love the way you transcend the blues into your innocent humor, which I like as much as your music. Thanxx. Go ahead
Hi Christian, fantastic. Thank you so much I learned some great sounds and I will practise. If some of it sounds like yours I will be super pleased!
Thank you again! Adore you! x
I'm now 18 and I can go out for a drink! Awesome analogy!
would it be safe or correct to say that any note other than the home C is a tension note in the C blues scale? thanks for your videos!
Thank you so much. You’re really helpful. I was struggling with doing C scale improvisation this week
Thank you... from Brazil
A great tutor you are and funy with it, thanks.christian
Excellent - discovering your tutorials has been my best gift this Christmas - although my family think the headphones for my piano were !! - I will persevere and thank you for these superb tutorials which have real personality enforcing the technique in a very entertaining and memorable way and taking away some of the mystery !
:-)) Family can be so wrong...
I have sauerkraut in my ears. Great explanation.
Thanks Christian, I liked the bow and arrow metaphor it is really a good tool for Blues and resolving tensions .... Will include in the task list !!!
Excellent!
Excelente amigo Christian, recibe un fuerte abrazo desde Colombia, gracias por compartir excelente tutorial.
Master! 💚
Again, cause its so important for many: Now you can slow down the video on TH-cam (not just in apps).
I get carried away so often without realizing. Its ON the video display, the little wheel with "HD" in red on it. Put it on 75% , it still sound good, and makes a good difference.
Brillant video!!!!!
Man! your "mechanical illustrative gestures" are very cool. 😂👍👏👌
u have best intention for humanity to teach blues. and i dont have any negativity or hesitation to learn with your helpful videos. greetins from istanbul ❤👍 thank u for efforts
Hello Leyla, a big welcome on my channel! Well "best intentions on humanity" is slightly too big pants for me ;-). But if I get a couple of thousand people from different countries and religions together these days, where left and right, black and white don´t make people yell at each other ( cause it´s just describing the thing in front of them which makes music) then this is my little contribution. Ah...and you learn Blues, too! :-)
The words you use about mother etc sink the theory into our amateur minds🔥
Arnold Kellerman Sounds good. what did I say about mother?
Learn so much for this guy
I kind of know him. And he let's you know he is very grateful! :-)
Excellent Christian, merci.
Thank you so much. 👍
Great stuff! Putting the feelings and techniques of the blues piano into words, the building and releasing of tension, etc. helps me so much as a beginner.
Fabulous!
Christian Fuchs everyone
I bought my keyboard 6 months ago, learned the C Blues Scale and ever since I have been playing simple improvisations with it (I'm now an expert at simple C Blues improvs, haha). Anyway, I have been getting very bored. Now, now! I know how to progress and make the C Blues (and other keys) scale really sing. What a great lesson. Thanks from London!
Greetings back to lovely London. Lived there for three years in Rochester Row. off Vauxhall Bridge Road. Great time that was...
@@ChristianFuchsBlues I'm not far from there, but on the other side of the river. Hey, you ever visit again give me a shout!
Slowing that down to 75% was technically better for me as a beginner, but it also showed different aspects of your interesting character. So it was better in many ways. That was so good thank you. Every time I work through your videos I feel like I get married again!
You can further slow down every TH-cam video in the videos menu. Lets hope you liked getting married in the first place...
Thank you, interesting tip with playing the tensions !
Great lession - so much fun learning the blues!
Very good!!!!!!!!!
Very nice video I learned a lot love the Blues
Good to see you again brother!
Likewise, sister!
Great teaching, Thank you for posting
Thanks Christian amazing explanation
Great, thanks!
thank you sir
I know that music is all about making the listener feel something. I suppose it's the same with any art, be it oil painting, ballet or what have you. The mathematics of musical theory have always been readily available (intervals, triads, inversions, etc., but what is the strategy for creating the emotion you want your audience to feel? Christian is wonderful about explaining the tactics of achieving this. And his whimsical sense of humor makes the lessons stick. I really enjoy learning from this nice fellow. Thank you, Christian.
hi handsome. i love your blue's videos. thank you. from California USA.
Nice tutorial sir
Thanks I like tutorial scale blues from you sir
Thanks boss i get it, i get it, i get it...the tension notes, is one of the keys, all of us we can make music, when we faund the correct teacher! Yeahhh baby!
Yep, you got it!
Great - just getting up to this - really helpful to see what you are up to, and you spent some good time with variants - thanks.
PS on the physics analogy: Inertia? Momentum? Bounce? Shock?
Fantastic video, you are a gentleman opening all these doors for me...
..and opening doors totally gender neutral is rare these days;-) Thanks!
My jazz piano teacher is starting me off on blues improvisation using the Minor blues scale and the major blues scale. Because I'm very new at it, I'm finding that the hardest part for me right now is keeping track of what measure I'm in while I'm improvising. So trying to keep 4/4 time by keeping four beats to the measure and not accidentally 5! I'm trying to use the chords in my left hand to help with that, but it's like multitasking for me. With practice I'm sure it will get easier.
super-gut!! hab's mal angeguckt...
I have a dream! Dass du irgendwann mal wieder zu mir ans Klavier kommst...
@@ChristianFuchsBlues du, beim anschauen des Videos hatte ich tatsächlich den Gedanken, dass ich das mal wieder machen könnte 🤤 telepathie...
Telesympathie! Hihi...
Hello Christian, I am learning a LOT by watching and listening to your tutorials. You not only learn us the notes but also the COUNTING in time to play these notes and that’s quite unique. I watched a video before this one this morning and you showed us a turnaround. Do you have more tutorials on turnarounds? I am actually a guitar player and the theory about scales is obviously the same. You played also minor 3/major 3 licks as guitar player do too. But a guitarist can play in any key this trick but on piano it complexer to sound good. Example: in C you can play easely Eflat to E and it will sound as a guitarist (soundwise). But If I want to play in the key of D (F to F#) it doesn’t sound as good (certainly with me :-).
Is there a way to approach this another way? By the way, I enjoy your humor too. LOL. And a silly question: there are “lefthanded” guitars (Jimi Hendrix). Are there “lefthanded” piano’s??? I am asking this because I play righthanded guitar so I make melody/chords etc. with my left hand and pick and strum rhythm with my right hand. So when I am practicing piano I put a lot of effort in my left hand to play the chords/rhythm while my right hand plays the melody etc. Just curious. Never seen one though. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Dunno about those pianos, but check my playlist „turnarounds“! ;-)
Christian Fuchs will check it out! Thanks.
