- If you're playing publicly in a wedding or church and you're suddenly asked to play something in an unfamiliar key, rather than making some excuse about eating dodgy shellfish and rushing off to the toilet, try this. More videos at www.quaverbox.com
"In an emergency" lol. I imagine some guy holding a gun to my head and yelling "PLAY SOMETHING NICE AND IT BETTER BE A D NOTE"
.
lmaoo
lol your comment is so funny haha I laugh so hard my dad came out of nowhere to know what I was laughing for.

zach moody my scenario, you kidnapped and he will let you out if you play a song in d
This sounds like every Coldplay's song
Sort of yeah.Strangely I thought that when I heard it.
made my day :D

Michelle Kramer You'd be surprised how many different songs sound strikingly similar. ThePianoGuys do something with a bunch of pop songs that have different melodies but the exact same chord progression. I bet Coldplay uses a similar progression in a lot of his music, that's probably why he thought it sounded like him lol
Depends on which album you're referring to.
"Under the ground"
Oh, I figured that one out before, but I just called it "For Whom The Bell Tolls"
Standard Trevor Wooooow never thought about rhat, I like that song
How does that work tho. It's one syllable too much
***** It's the name of a song that uses it.
Ah sorry then.
Standard Trevor as a bass player moving to learn some piano, I thank you, because you just helped me understand this so much better
The blinking red '16' is killing me haha. Your voice is so soothing, and your explanation is on point!
exactly! those were my thougts on this video exactly xD
probably just the camera, not actually flashing

Ya I'm usually too lazy to actually read a song and practice, so improvising like this usually works out nicely. People are amazed at how many "different" songs I can play ;-)
yeah its great to amaze people but really you are only cheating yourself... Only great things come from hard work and patience... Jeremy's Transit & Tech
Piano Around the World It's not cheating yourself if 1) you like playing it and 2) it sounds good to you. It could sound like crap to everyone else, but you've succeeded if it sounds good to you.Play music first and foremost for yourself, imo. It's a gift, a gift for you, that you can share if you wish, but should be first for you.
AngelPuppetslayer Of course! You can't play and learn the instrument if you don't like what you're hearing from it. Thanks, dude!
This is a better beginners course than anything else....
yeah this is certainly not for people who already know how to play piano... bruchpilot747
What I meant was, that this is really good. I have no clue of playing piano but any other video i watched before was just utter sh*t compared to this. :D
As I said, my piano skills are those of a banana eating chipmunk^^
But I agree this certainly helps even skilled players! :)

Ed Sheeran's secret comes out
hardly
the theory behind pop music is pretty simple: I, IV, V, and vi chords in different orders (and sometimes the same order)
the fact that there are hundreds of videos on youtube saying the same thing in a different format without explaning the theory is amazing to me
learn basic theory which takes like 30 minutes, and you can improv like this in any key signature

Whomever you are...you are god sent. This just made it sooooo much easier for me to play. I can't play at all just by ear and this just makes all the sense in the world to me or to anyone who wants to learn to play just by playing these notes and chords. Thanks a million
#salute
Chris Perdue Great to hear! :)
Un-der-the-grouunnnd! XD
+eYǝ hahaha
CPLAYZ GAMEZ fuck you
Whoever*
you can't imagine how happy I was when I found this! I'm playing piano for about 5 years and the only thing I never mastered is improvisation. So thanks a lot, you saved me from feeling absolutely overchallenged with it
You explained it so easy, I think I get it, even though I do not own a piano or keyboard and do not have access to any piano or keyboard xD
XxZoraZ hijack that one piano in your local piano store before they kick you out amd get to another piano store
You may not realize it but your changing lives by doing this and I for one want to thank you .God Bless and keep training us in Lay terms .
I'm good at playing pieces from composers, but my piano improvisation skills need help because I don't know much about chords. I'm in theory 1 and now I see how all of that will tie together to help me. I'm going to try this exercise tomorrow. Thanks for the awesome video!
Don't feel guilty for making things more simple and understandable, it's not lame, it's awesome.
Thanks you for the video
I don't know why I keep watching piano and music videos, I don't even own a piano and have the musical talent of a rock
I'm a classical flautist wanting to break free from music. This is enormously helpful. Thanks for posting.
ma man u just taught the whole world how to become a musician...god bless u
I can't believe this video is over 7 years old.
QUAVERBOX! We miss your videos!
Thanks for the feedback! If you switch the chords on top, then it's not really an "emergency" technique anymore because you'd have to think a lot more. You'd then need to know the scale/chords in the key you're playing and approach it in a more conventional way. On the other hand, instead of just using the 1st and 5th, you could also use a 7th. This extra note might provide enough variation to the mix so that it's not as repetitive.
May I just say I am a professional pianist, and this video amazed me!! Not because of the content, but because of seeing the content from someone else's perspective. I tend to over complicate things... and this just showed be that I don't have to. Well done!!
I have struggled with piano for years - this has made all the difference, not having to ready music and just make it up as I go along - thank you for explaining.
under the Ground ! :)
+Ng Roxanne Ahah. Such an interesting, but valuable method of learning.
+Ng Roxanne Under the sea!! Under the seeeeaa! Darling it's better down where it's wetter, take it from me! Up on the shore they work all day, out in the sun they slave awa.....wait what?
You have the tone of a wonderful teacher. Never lose it. :)
Precise and generous in showing finger position. Unlike most instructional videos, just talk and not showing fingers on keyboard. Patient and articulate. First time I would comment on any video.
awww, made me almost cry. This is exactly what I've been looking for. Love the simplicity and the feel and tone. Again, thank you for sharing your gift.
Thank you quaverbox, your lessons, tips and tricks are invaluable.
Ii have been playing piano since I was 13yrs old. However, I have never met such an incredible piano teacher like you before. I pray for Gods blessing upon your life... in Jesus Name, Amen.
This is the best improv lesson video I've seen! I've been managing to play over backing tracks with the right hand but got stuck with what to do with the left. Simple, clear, concise, easy instructions that work! Thank you so much!
One of the most useful videos I have ever watched on youtube. Thanks a ton for sharing this.
Anyone else self-taught?
Benjamin Lopez yass #selftaughtsquad
Benjamin Lopez Yeah people are always talking to me about chords and stuff. And I'm just sitting there pretending like I know what they're talking about.
CountrySide Animation Studios Same! xD I know more songs than kids that know how to read piano notes xD
self taught but have trouble left hand I can't use my pinky( been damaged) use other fingers. what do u use on left hand chords? octaves? single bass notes? just wondering if I could find out from others.
Yup
FINALLY ! Lessons that make sense. Thank you.
I've always thought I was too amateur-ish and stupid for being unfamiliar with some keys (like the damn A-flat lol) but it's kind of comforting that some others may be out there blabbering the dodgy shellfish excuse and then finding your vid.
Thank you :)
Thanks for sharing those little tricks that sound so impressive when played by other people! Be blessed
This is the best piano tone I've heard
I disagreee. The best piano tone is a piano itself...
Piano Around the World bitch do you know pianos dont have just one tone? Hahaha this nigga
Happy Jordan what are you on? you can see it is a digital piano, piano itself is like none of the digital piano's wise ass
Karim Messaoudi lol this white nigga.. Of course it's a fuckin keyboard but it's using a sample from some amazing piano
Originaly i am green and from mars. but still, you wrong again it isn't a Keyboard it is a digital Piano with recorded vocals, so never the same sound as real. somister happy go hop yaw happy ass somewhere else wih cool comments, a bafoon would know better btw.
Terence, there are many tutorials out there . However, you are a true teacher. You have the ability to make things very simple at the same time discussing the complexity of a progression. Thank you for sharing a gift that comes so naturally to you.
you are amazing! your playing gave me chills.
Think these little tips are lovely , always good to share
I like this, it is a very good exercise to understand progressions and chords working for and with each other. Thank you!
This has actually taught me more than 8 weeks of a music course at uni. Thank you so much!
I just hope it covers me for that third verse of The Entertainer that I keep forgetting.
wow. you're amazing. I was totally hooked at the start of the video. And yea, there are always times when you're in front of the piano and you're stuck. so thank you.
Wow, been playing for 20 years and you explained it better then I ever knew, subscribing now!
Wow, best explanation I've ever had! Even through 5 years of lessons. Many thanks.
Wow, that was a really great tecnique! I just spent about 20 min at the piano just playing around with this. And it was so easy to do! Everything just flowed and sounded great!
i appreciate your help, thanks for repeating the lesson several times before going to something new.
thank you so much for posting this! I am trying to learn how to accompany songs and this is a lifesaver! thank you! Can't wait to try it!
I know its probably one of the simplest concepts, but this just sounds amazing when put together
You're awesome! In less than 5 minutes you taught me a principle that i can use to create my own music! Finally!!!
I always say there's something thats just not connecting in my brain but once i get the principle I'll be able to flow.
This is priceless! Thank you sooooooo much! Thanks for sharing your talent! Jah bless!
God bless you quaverbox!!! This is excellent! Thank you! I'm one of the pianists at church. This is exactly the style of sound that I hear in many of the youth songs and that I had been hoping to pick up on.
This. Was. So. Helpful!!!!! I've been trying to write some songs for piano for forever and after I watched this, I have so many ideas!! Life saver!
Really enjoyed your fingerings going so smooth like a dancing doll ,very soulful style of piano playing.god bless u
this is very helpful as i have been teaching my self now for 3 years, playing piano

You have a beautiful sounding voice and it made it much more pleasant to sit and rewind a few thousand times until I understood what you were doing.
You also described it really well! :)
one of the best videos i have seen. really useful. please keep pouring in such videos . Thanks a lot. Subscribed..
Your voice is so calming. You play the piano purely and you sound sweet. I have subscribed :D
That sounded amazing!
Thank you so much :) That 'underthebridge' technique really helped me a lot.
even though i'm just re learning how to play (gave up at first, but got interested again...), this makes sense to me! thank you
I like the way you explain things. Adding this to my "Learn Piano" video playlist. Thank you. :)
sir ! u are an amazing teacher! heartfelt gratitude to u
Thank Mr. for helping me out, im a new keyboardist of our church since our keyboardist left us.. btw i played bass and acoustic for our church before i play keyboard .. and i dont know what to play when the Pastor ended the message .. thank you Mr.. you are amazing! God bless you !
Excellent lesson.
This is great--thanks for making it! Also I love the under the sea thing, very clever!
Thank you for this (old) video! It sounds great!

I just love you...I wish I saw your videos earlier. you are a real teacher...God bless you in so many ways.

I just had this video recommended to me and found your channel. I want to check out more of your videos because I've always wanted to learn how improvise on the piano. I've been classically trained for 12 years, but never learned to improvise.
