I have a Master's degree in Music but I've never seen stylistic playing such as this so simply and efficiently encapsulated for achievability with minimal training/study. Bravo!!
I played piano through school, stopped and then started recently, some 35 years later! Thank you for an amazing yet simple concept. You play so elegantly that it's hard to believe this is based on 2 chords. Genius! 🙏❤️
I've been trying for over a year to learn and get better at this exact lounge/cocktail style of piano. I've made a lot of progress, but this video had more of an immediate and measurable impact than anything else I've come across. Please make more of these types of videos! This could be a huge win for your channel. You are straight to the point, clear, and informative. Stick with this, and RUN WITH IT.
Best lounge jazz tutorial I've seen! Really helps to just think about sticking to 2 chords and playing all their notes in different ways. So nice, thank you. Really looking forward to try it.
Straight to the point without beating around the bush, information is broken down and presented in a format which is easier to understand and quickly put into practice.. Great tutorial! Thank you :)
Very nice. That’s the sound of the “tinkling piano in the next apartment” [These Foolish Things] “Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant”. What a rhyme.
Wow, just wow. The presentation style combined with your explanation and how you broke down the style into its building blocks made it very followable and gave me immediate impetus to sit down next to a piano again. To put that in context, I last properly played twenty years ago when a "jazz piano" teacher had me practice major and minor scales for six months before he disappeared and I never heard of him again. These five minutes had a bigger effect on me than those six months!
You're a fantastic teacher! It's been a while since I've seen such a comprehensive piano lesson - appreciate the easy breakdown and straight to the point format, keep it up!
Excellent video. I'm usually skeptical about music tutorial, but this is very instructive and well put. Also, your playing is soft and enjoyable to hear. Keep it up!
Man, I love finding videos and channels like this. You teach it so simply and give enough for one to fill an entire practice session with this 5 minute lesson. Always wanted to learn lounge piano stuff
Very helpful! Just to be clear this method does not limit the music to just 2 chords. Instead it allows you to generate many different chords by thinking of them as variations of 2 simpler chords with different moods. Since piano lounge music is all about the mood, we don't really need to know exactly what the chord is, just the mood it brings.
Great tutorial! Can't wait to see more like it! Loved the careful choice of words and progression of examples. Made it very easy and enjoyable to follow.
By just concentrating on those two chords, one is actually playing more than just two chords when inverted. Excellent video. I’ve been saying this to my friends for years.
I could listen to this all day! I don't think I've ever heard a better piece of music that is so calming and yet keeps me eager to hear the next note! Thanks so much for sharing your talent! May God bless you!
Teaching at it’s fundamental root is all reducing seemingly complex concepts to their simplest terms. What teaching is not? Telling note names, showing what one knows and calling it teaching, talking down to the student etc. The compassion to impart knowledge to others is not about what one cannot do but rather the gift one must find in themselves to impact learning of others which in turn teaches one about one’s true essence. Great share! 😊
That was really helpful! Now I have finally learned how to create this particula bar sound in a mist effective way. Thank you so much for this, you' ve got a friend.
Maaaaannnnn! Very nice, very handy explainer. I really appreciated this! 🎉🎉 I’ve been making music for about 45 years now, and obviously still learn new things from fellow musos from time to time, but, as you grow older, your experience and knowledge grows, so, less and less things are “new” to you, or really an “eye-opener”. This one was, for me bud.
It's a journey that continues for the rest of my life too, that's for sure! 🙏 Happy to hear, that even after 45 years there are still new things to learn!
Actually really interesting and simple way to introduce bebop scales and their voicings. Definitely wasn't explained this simply when I was doing my bachelor!

The first video that actually tells you how to learn stuff in five minutes
I have a Master's degree in Music but I've never seen stylistic playing such as this so simply and efficiently encapsulated for achievability with minimal training/study. Bravo!!
Who else is pouring a glass of wine? Awesome video! Thanks!
Having a good time 😄👍

Fantastic to hear! The joy of playing music has no end.
Barry Harris!! I love this stuff. More please!!
I came back to this video to see whether Barry Harris was mentioned, because I remembered this concept but without any remembrance of the man!
Seeking THIS tutorial for 40 years.
Hope you don't have to spend another 40 to find the next 😅
This was really helpful to me. One of the best break-downs Ive seen of how to actually play around with the Barry Harris scale.
Happy to hear. Barrys scales are not TOO complicated. But there's a lot to dive into.
@@loungepiano _...but there's a lot to dive into...._ that's the complicated part.
@@pangeaproxima3681 it's a simple concept that can be expanded on. It's a way of simplifying harmonies to free you up to do more
@@granddaddy_funk Man, you sound like a teacher and you didn't understand my comment.
@@pangeaproxima3681 I am a piano teacher lol.
That was way better than it had any right to be. Beautifully explained.
Thanks!
now this is the man I have been looking all my life. Someone who can simplify my piano life

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback!
Very nice. That’s the sound of the “tinkling piano in the next apartment” [These Foolish Things] “Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant”. What a rhyme.
That's what I know as Barry Harry 6th diminished scale. It's beautiful, you give really nice examples.
Wow. This could also be seen as a really cool and melodic approach for practicing Barry Harris diminished 6th concept. Brilliant!
Exactly!
Fantastic share! Thank you for this lovely little nugget :) just what I was looking for in theory ;)
The best piano video I’ve ever seen bar far! Instant sub. 😮
you deserve a grammy for teaching this in such an articulate way

This is a great tutorial! More focussed on making music than on using complicated ideas. Please make more of these.
Thanks for the feedback. I will!
Yea please do more things like this, less truly is more!!
Wow! This is like...how to play the piano in a nutshell. Thanks!
Most elegant and practical explanation of Barry Harris' 6th diminished scale ever!!!

Please make more of these videos! 😮 its amazing how simple and clear you explained it. thank you 🎉
I think I learned this as Barry Harris's diminished sixth scales... Either way - it's beautiful! Thanks - subscribed 👍👍
Yes. That's the way he explained it too.
Excellent video. I'm usually skeptical about music tutorial, but this is very instructive and well put. Also, your playing is soft and enjoyable to hear. Keep it up!
Short. Sweet. Packed. This is a gem 💎

You play so well
Excellent. Many thanks.
You're welcome!
great post, from the great educator Barry Harris and his b6 scale

If you could do a series of lectures (videos demos) for early intermediate for late beginner, that would great. It does sound pretty good. Thank you.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will think about that.
I love your vibe, please keep making tutorials :)
