I am 60 years old I have been taking piano lessons from an accomplished musician for the pass 3 years. Have not made much progress but watching a couple of your videos got me excited. Now I will stick with you and learn. God bless you richly
I'm a guitar player. I recently bought a DAW. Can't have a DAW without a keyboard so I bought a keyboard. Can't strum a keyboard so I tinkered around a bit. Sort of doing okay. Then I saw this video. Pretty cool. Played the 1st four patterns instantly. The 5th took a little to get the muscle memory happening. Lol....I subscribed.
The fact you told people to practice a 4 note section to get comfortable tells me you’re a fantastic teacher. These “piano apps” had my daughter doing triad scales in the beginning. I’m like can we focus on like a c major scale first and get her comfortable with that. So bravo sir, I will definitely subscribe and have her watch your videos.
I had piano lessons as a youngster - then my dad taught me some chords on a guitar (his old, old, old one!) then I was given a ukulele for my 9th birthday. Studied music in the library and then started buying penny whistles and harmonicas. Then had home-organ lessons. Started backing artistes at around 18/19 and then got into portable keyboards - played in a few bands, churches and have now risen to buying a Genos 2 - and you know what? I am still learning. Turned 60 this year and now realize that I need way more time than nature has to offer!! Enjoyed "going back to basics" and subscribed. Thank you CPA!
I’ve been trying to learn piano myself for ages, I have some music knowledge but cannot read music. This video just moved my progression by miles and the fun too.
My piano skills have progressed tremendously since I found Creative Piano Academy. Thank you so much for providing such great content and free accompanying sheet music etc. I appreciate you.
So simple, thanks very much. This truly can help me as a beginner sound like I know what I'm doing, at least for a brief moment, when I sit down at the piano with my wife in the room! NOTHING IS MORE ELEGANT THAN SIMPLICITY!
I recently bought a keyboard as a gift for a friend that wanted to learn to play. I wanted to find some easy lessons to get her started and I believe this is the right place. Thank you.

I love the way you teach! In one day I have become possibly good at two of these patterns and gotten a start on learning the others. No one else teaches things in a way that makes you feel this confident this quickly!
Thank you, you are a great teacher, you make it slow and easy to follow, I'm 71 and need to learn, also like note in top corner, Its by far the best tutorial I can find, Have subscribed
This is my first set of exercises with Creative Piano Academy, which I now consider a go-to resource for my keyboard studies and one which I plan on engaging with as a proper customer. Thanks very much for your good work and all that you put into it. Much appreciated!
I absolutely loved this, I love inversions and this is the validation I needed to play them as much as I want to 😅 I’m self taught and not very accomplished but I still love to play. Thank you SO much for your simple and USEFUL video 👏 Your excitement was a wonderful bonus 😊
It is incorrect for people to say that they are self-taught or that they are teaching themselves. Is more appropriate to say that by experimenting you are finding out certain things about how this music works. Keep investigating and eventually you will learn certain aspects of how music is done. Keep practices and you will get better at those things. But you can only teach yourself if you already know in which case you're not teaching yourself.
Hi Josef, Thank you so much for sharing these amazing, empowering and beautiful patterns. Of all the things I have seen on TH-cam piano tutorials, this video is the one that I feel is most useful for a person like me trying to learn how to play the piano. It is so empowering and it made me feel I could actually sound good playing the piano. You are a great teacher and you made beginners feel they can actually advance in their desire to play better. Thank you again. You are truly a blessing.
Oh yea! Thanks, and yes you can use those infinitely, from classic 60s up to nowadays, like Beatles, Journey, The Great Phil, Jazz to romantic songs and on and on...
I can play basic chords on the piano and have been wanting to advance them. I’ve searched TH-cam videos for months and haven’t been able to understand anyone but I finally understand it now after watching this video
note to self - Pattern 3 (The Lohn Jennon) - 6:27 Pattern 4 (The Half-Half) - 9:25 Pattern 5 (The All-Rounder) - 12:00 these are the most useful for showtunes/musical sounding pieces :)
I’ve learnt a few piano chords over the years but had no idea how much music you could actually make by breaking them down into different patterns. Amazing. Thank you.
Beautiful sounds. Played piano for 10 years, when I was a kid. (Was never very good.) Haven't touched a piano in 42 years. Wish I'd learned these patterns back then.
I loved the video and I saved it. For my Roland tips and tricks playlist. Although I was practicing the note progressions on my cigar box guitar and I sucked at it. But I can't wait to sequence my Roland J-6 with this and then play along the note patterns on my CBG... thank you for the inspiration..
Thank you so much! I’ve been playing almost 2 years and finally seeing myself making progress. I am playing new songs every week! It’s slow and steady but so much fun! Sending love from Florida.
You are really amazing teacher. I've no idea how to play piano, but I bought one yesterday coz I really want to learn it. And your videos are really helping me a lot. Thank you...
Thanx, i learned many basic/advance techniques from you and it helps me lot , now I can play with confidently and ofcourse like advance player. Thanx😊😊
Love and cheers from India. It's Raghunath. Beautiful patterns Josef... I find these patterns worth givin a try as in effect, I am a beginner in piano, having had practically no touch with my keyboard for the last 3 years.. These lessons are suitable for me to get back on track. Thanks.. Keep going.. 👍👌👌👌
Great vid! I’m self taught, been playing for years, have played professionally, and I guess just intuitively started using these patterns. When I first started playing, I wrote something using Pattern # 1. But what was interesting about your approach on #1 was going to the inversion for the next chord, bc it requires changing the finger separation distance. Pretty cool, and makes it sound less elementary. The pattern on which you keep the bass on the first chord throughout with creates a bit of tension is used quite often by Elton (e.g., the intro to “Your Song”). The genealogy of the “Lohn Jennon” could be go back to the “Maul PcCartney,” since Maul used it on “Golden Slumbers,” and likely taught “Jennon” how to play.
@@scottm4042 First. Second would be Lehn Jonnen & Mcul PaCartney. Now don’t even get me started on minors, 7th’s, diminished, augmented, and especially 6 add 9’s! Eventually you run out of letters and have to start borrowing from George & Ringo . . .
Great approach. Playing piano, as with most things, takes a lot of repetition of exercises that don't sound particularly pleasing. Your approach allows the beginner to play something pleasing to the ear and reinforcing to those laboring through the (required) basic exercises. Thank you

Crazy how these tiny modulations and differences invoke wildly different emotional responses - even when used with the same notes.
My favorite was #5 as well as The John Lennon one. But I also liked the half and half cause that was the simplest.
All good ones. Great video. Thanks.
Yeeeeees! I’m so glad to see a new video from you. Can’t wait to go try these :D
FANTASTIC! Go forth and play!
Awesome thank you so much I'm 70 just started learning the piano and this is so helpful and beautiful God bless you I love it

Thank you for your teaching. it's an easy way to understand... God (The Trinity) bless you and your loved ones ❤
Very helpful lesson especially w the blue highlights on the piano notes. I’ll be back for left-hand patters. 😊
Just watched for the video for the first time without the piano. Love the approach and attitude - now to get started.
Think im gonna use this as warm ups to try and relax myself and my fingers
This is so realistic and smooth I want people to hear it ❤
I have learned so much from Joseph. Super instructions. I have made a lot of progress and he makes it fun.
You were one of my first (still) best online piano teachers!!! Thanks Josef

Pattern 3 (The Lohn Jennon) - 6:27

Pattern 5 (The All-Rounder) - 12:00

Mate, you are a fabulous teacher. Bravo!
As an adult learner, this is exactly what I've been looking for! Thanks so much, Josef! Joining the Academy today!!!! A+++++ 🎹🎶🎵🎼
Very honest serious teacher
Great work. Keeping me busy and challenged as a new player. Thank you!
You are a very good teacher how you explain and I like that you show the notes on the keys and the notes. Thanks you.
Thank you !!! For me..Pattern # 1 0:45

very inspiring! So glad you love to teach piano! I liked all 5 patterns. I'm looking forward to trying them out.
Makes me think of the step from strumming to finger picking on the guitar--same components, but much more musical. Thanks and subbed!
Exactly. Good analogy.
They are all POWERFUL. I think it depends on how it will be applied which will sound great
Good job. GOD BLESS YOU.
Thank you, I've been chording for year now and was wanting to expand.

These are great patterns to learn and then improvise on. Thank you. You have a real knack for teaching. I like the notes up in the corner as well.
Love this video and in particular how you present the keys and the notes on the scale at the same time. Nice work!
Thank you sir, you have the carism to teach step by step.
You really make it very simple.
Excellent teacher
Thank you so much! I’ve been playing almost 2 years and finally seeing myself making progress. I am playing new songs every week! It’s slow and steady but so much fun! Sending love from Florida.
