    You are an excellent teacher, and your version was faster and easier for me to learn than some of the other tutorials I watched that used too many chords. Thank you for this tutorial! 🙂

    Thanks for this awesome lesson, Jason. I always dig your teaching style, especially how you don't hesitate to call something "absolute nonsense" lol. Keep up the great work, man! 👍

    I'm looking forward to receiving my keyboard so I can learn this. It's been a while and this is one of my favorites too. You make it look very doable. Thank you.

    But I'm not the only one

    I hope someday
    I'll join you as one of the piano lovers and
    be able to play the piano deploying maybe at least one percent of
    your awesome
    skills.

    And the world will be as one.

    Very good and accurate than 99% of the TH-cam tutorials but if you watch John play it the first left hand chord is a two finger chord of C and G and then a C and F. Everyone seems to miss this.

    Learned it already Jason; thank you. If you could do Pink Floyd's Great Gig in the Sky that would be amazing, I tried to play it years ago; before I was even a beginner, and it was understandbly awful. That said, I've learned so much from you now I could probably find the sheet music and learn it myself but I would really love to see you do it. I've been concentrating on some of your historic rhythm tutorials lately and I've assimilated so many eighth; triplet and sixteenth note rhythms now that I feel consumate enough to classify myself as a rhythm pianist; however, my goal is to become a lead pianist (playing melodies and harmonies as well as rhythms) so I've still got a way to go, but I'm getting there. Once again thank you!

  • @jayswizzle57
    @jayswizzle57 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is all wrong. Your left hand should play a C octave then a fifth for the F. In your right hand the first C chord should have a 9 in it and the F chord should be played in root position. Also, you’re not supposed to play any bass notes with the right hand.
    You only show the the A section. There are 2 more parts to this song.
    The video is called how to “actually” play Imagine but you add your own extra bass notes? You should have named it “how I play the first part of imagine.”
    I can’t imagine how many beginners are playing this song incorrectly because of this video.

    • @nathanielschool
      @nathanielschool  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. Will definitely do the full version soon. Prefer to play the bass note with the either the Left or Right hand though
