Hi Adam Loved the lesson as I knew I would. Thank you for another excellent tutorial. The piece you were intimating at in 6.04 of the video is La March Funebre par Chopin Or opus 35 Funeral march in B flat and C minors respectively. Written by Chopin to show solidarity and support with his fellow Poles in their uprising against the Russians. I am so excited about this channel and I have seen a lot but you really have something here. There is a sense of accessibility, clear explanation and a teaching style that is esoteric across all age and experience groups It's as though, you know exactly what I want to learn and haven't been able to due to lack of confidence to step outside of sheet music. I am a fan and hope to be part of this growing community for many years. You mentioned social media platforms. Apologies but I only have you here on TH-cam. Which others are you on? I presume you were referring to Community Groups on Facebook, X, Insta etc. Congratulations on the 10,000 subscriber mark but know you've smashed that one out of the park already. Had a Merch idea for you also. Why don't you get Keys Coach T-Shirts etc, and have your catchphrase emblazoned across the keys! 'Do You See That?' Or 'I Like It!' I think they would sell lol! Already spread the word about your channel Adam and fellow piano amateurs will flock to it, I know. Really am enjoying your content Adam. You're an excellent musician but even greater teacher. Thank you.
Ah thanks so much Scarlette! Great ideas!! 💡 We’re also on Instagram (@thekeyscoach) - that’s the main platform outside TH-cam. Thank you so much for all the support! 🙏
Hello there Adam, I am enjoying your tutorials immensely, it is all rather slow for me because of my advanced age, but it is really fun. You are a fantastic teacher. Would you continue with Elton's "Your Song" so we could learn the entire piece to the end. Thank you so much for your generosity giving out these valuable lessons!!! Kind wishes, Joan.😻
Love your tutorials! Clear explanation! I am not too familiar with the chords and inversions. Watching you demonstrate at a slower speed help a lot! Thank you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Like it a lot ! Thanks! Also liked whatyou did as your improvisation at the end. Could you make a video to that part too? Its amazing. Would like to learn chords playing like that!
Super lesson! The Bb in the key of C makes it really interesting. And thank you very much for explaining so clearly the "boxed-in chords"! Can't wait trying it out . 🙂 I discovered your videos only a few weeks ago and I enjoy them! Another positive aspect: you pronounce very clearly so that I can understand everything😀 Thank you very much from Germany!
Hi Adam, Fantastic video, nobody else on the internet will divulge all this information - certainly not for free. Very informative and very well done, I am now one of your disciples. Thank you SO much!!!! Kind wishes, Joan Johnstone-Wells.
Adam, thank you so much for your time and effort making these great videos. You really help me, as a self-learner a lot! I introduced your channel to my friends too. Will you sometimes do live playing and teaching, so that we can have instant response and interaction?😄 Though we got different time zone between Hong Kong and UK . 😅
Thank you Adam for your videos. I've always loved Elton John so this video got me straight away. I discovered your channel while I was on holidays last week. I'm a late in life piano learner and would love to play like you - hopefully there's enough time left for me! 😂
Me too, I’m taking the bits I learn from your videos to put together my own music. Useful bits I leaned are boxing in the triad and changing up the arpeggios.
Adam, I have been watching your videos the whole day today and my jaw is still on the floor😮. Thanks a million times, you are a genius and true blessing to us aspirant piano players🙏🏼
This is really good Adam, thank you. I've enjoyed Elton for years and this video combined with the other videos about chords has been tremendously helpful.
Congrats Adam I can only see your channel going from strength to strength 😊 another great tutorial with great free pdf too , thank you so much for your generosity . Regards Patricia 👏👏😀
I like this lesson so much! And throughout your lessons, the use of different keys is so useful to get to practice new sounds. Unfortunately, dew to an accident, I can't stretch my right hand pinky to reach an octave ( such as happens in this lesson ) so I don't know if I'll be able to get that sound when playing the block chords of progression... Is there any way in which this lesson can be adapted so I may play it? Thanks a lot and expecting your next video lesson 😊
Hi Adam, GREAT VIDEO AND GREAT INFO... BUT, TOO MANY COMMERCIALS..... LMAO.... Also, at Time Stamp 9:45, the audio starts to go out of sync with the video. At time stamp 10:10, it actually gets worse. Thx ElectricEddie
Very Nice and Thank You! Question. Is it just my internet speed connection, or is the Super Impose showing above the keys slow? When you play G, it's still on the C chord. Also unable to even see the Arpeggios.
FY: It is easier on my 27-inch desktop. But I have a small laptop by my piano and it's rather difficult to follow your finger movement while the keys stay solid orange. Thanks for looking into this. Would be very helpful. ❤
@@thekeyscoach I'm gonna become a good keyboard player yet😂😂😂😂 I have an uncle whom played with all the greats🎹 Kim Waters, Ray Parker Jr., Otis Williams, and so many more I can't name them all👍❤️
Hey Kim! Would love to! Huge fan of Elton’s live shows. Hope you enjoyed the video! I have a podcast (The Keys Coach Podcast) - would love to have you on!
But it's obvious you are trying to copy Elton John. Yes, you changed the chord progression, but having a Bb chord follow a G chord in the key of C is also the kind of thing that Elton John does.
@@nickmorley1159 Yes of course. That is a good way to practice the technique but if he were to for example record and publish the song it would be a ripoff of Elton John.
Thanks
Thanks Cherryl!
Danke!
Thanks so much Thorsten!! 🤩
@@thekeyscoach the “boxing” was just an eye opener, I have to thank YOU, greetings from Germany
👍
Thanks!
Thanks
Thanks Sabrina!
This is really super useful to me. You’ve a lot more subscribers now than what you mentioned in the video. I am not surprised one bit.
Thanks John!

the song you came up with reminds me of Dragon - Are you old anough.
around 6:45 you ask what that motif comes from - I would say: Chopin, 1st piano sonata 2nd movement, marcia funebre
Ah that’s it! Thanks!
Great intro, my personal favorite piano intro ever is Landed by Ben Folds.
Yes! Adam, please look at Ben's style
Great idea!
Wonderful lesson !! Maybe, you could do a lesson on voice leading!!thanks
Great idea Leslie! Thanks!

Thanks Joan! Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
@@thekeyscoach Are you going to continue Your Song for us, after the intro? PLEASE!!
At 6:40 in the video, I *think* the piece you started playing (but couldn't remember ) might be Chopin's "Funeral March".
Ah! Sounds about right!! Thanks!
Love your tutorials! Clear explanation! I am not too familiar with the chords and inversions. Watching you demonstrate at a slower speed help a lot! Thank you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Great video, as always! I'd love to see you do a deeper dive on all those little things you did in the last section: Take it to the Next Level
🚀 👍
Can you teach me how to play we all fall in love sometimes
New sub here. Youve made me want to get back to my keyboard. Thanks for the inspiration!
Awesome! Thank you!
@@thekeyscoach I played for a few hours yesterday. It's almost like riding a bike. Had a blast! Thanks again!
🚀 🙌
Very interesting, thanks. Can you do some blues piano lessons
Super lesson! The Bb in the key of C makes it really interesting. And thank you very much for explaining so clearly the "boxed-in chords"!

Excellent “TIP”, and very clearly demonstrated!!! Thanks, MUCH!!!👍🏽
You're very welcome!
Thank you for your patient to teach, I've learn a lot from you, and you inspire me not to give up on playing piano 🎹 Thank you Adam 💝
Thanks so much Sabrina! So glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Fabulous video ... would you please teach the song called 'This will be' (an everlasting love by Natalie Cole?. Thank you
I love that song! Such a great tune.
Just love what you play at the end- sounds great and lots of ideas to try- thank you!
You are so welcome!
Wonderful. Thank you. Some Steely Dan please.
Yet another fab video Adam - Many thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Oh and by the way - that tune you could not remember Chopin Funeral March ! th-cam.com/video/kyFyAqLtHq8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jVcBnPOdhKerXqtM
Ah yes of course - many thanks!
Thanks for the excellent tutorial on one of my favorite pop song ever!

Hi very interesting ’ I hope another lesson on Elton John and Your Song ’ Thanks you very much 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Thanks Viktor!
Amazing tutorials! Thank you very much!
Thanks!
Me too, I’m taking the bits I learn from your videos to put together my own music. Useful bits I leaned are boxing in the triad and changing up the arpeggios.
I love all your "variations" and integrating the techniques into a new chord progression and new keys! To make it your own...
Adam, I have been watching your videos the whole day today and my jaw is still on the floor😮. Thanks a million times, you are a genius and true blessing to us aspirant piano players🙏🏼
Wow, thank you Ray! So glad you've been enjoying the videos!
The best lessons I've found so far.
Thanks!
EPIC song! 🤘🏼
Fantastic teaching you make it seem so achievable
Thank you!
You are really a great teacher....all your videos are awesome. Please keep posting more such videos.. thanks
Lots more coming! Thanks!

Hi Adriana - so glad you're enjoying the channel! I guess you could just play single notes, low down - that would also work well!
It turns out I’ve been doing just about everything you mentioned organically, I just never knew how to verbalize what I was doing.
Beautifully explained. Thank you very much
More like this please. Excellent information!
Thanks!!
Great lesson!
The best!
Great tuto !
Great!

Ottimo . Bella spiegazione
Excellent Stuff!
Glad you liked it!
Thsts the funeral march thene by Chopin that you played. Haha
The Key The Secret
🎉🎉❤❤🎉🎉
Very Nice and Thank You!
Question. Is it just my internet speed connection, or is the Super Impose showing above the keys slow? When you play G, it's still on the C chord. Also unable to even see the Arpeggios.
Ah interesting - will check this out!
Love this song. But it's very difficult to follow your fingers when the orange keys stay solid🤷
I noticed that.
Will look into this - thanks!
FY: It is easier on my 27-inch desktop. But I have a small laptop by my piano and it's rather difficult to follow your finger movement while the keys stay solid orange. Thanks for looking into this. Would be very helpful. ❤
It’s the sustain pedal.
Still looking into this - hoping to change this in the upcoming vids!

The orange isn’t lighting up and matching to the keys you are pressing as you’re playing… so it’s hard to follow
Hey. I play keys We should connect
Hey Kim! Would love to! Huge fan of Elton’s live shows. Hope you enjoyed the video! I have a podcast (The Keys Coach Podcast) - would love to have you on!

Wasn't that the whole point?
Yeah hater
I think it was quite clear he was saying that this is in the style of Elton John ... He was demonstrating what EJ does.
@@nickmorley1159 Yes of course. That is a good way to practice the technique but if he were to for example record and publish the song it would be a ripoff of Elton John.
I really didn't get the impression it was anything other than showing people about his style
Thanks
