Hasta La Vista, Baby!
Another great Foundations Course. Scales, Chords, Inversions, Accompaniment approaches and a great original Latin Groove tune. I have learned so much going through all of these Foundational Courses and Eb Minor has been no exception. I have taken all 12 Major Scale Courses and all 12 of their Relative Minor Keys with Variations (Harmonic & Melodic Minor). It has taken a lot of hard work and discipline to stay the course and it has been totally worth it!! I have so much more command of the keyboard in terms of playing chords in any position and inversion as well as playing all related scales in multiple octaves. The grooves that have been introduced throughout the courses have really helped me grow rhythmically both in terms of reading syncopated grooves and playing them in both hands. These Beginner Foundation Courses offer a very comprehensive approach to becoming more confident and skilled at the keyboard. Thank you Jonny for developing the PWJ learning system and Daine Jordan for what he has brought as an instructor to a number of these courses. I am fully sold on the PWJ experience and the freedom and confidence it has imparted to me on my piano journey!! I am fully looking forward to tackling the Intermediate Level Courses next and fulfilling my piano dreams.........
Great last key course!
This was my last key course! I've made it! It took me almost a year, but it was really worth it. PS: The montuno at full speed is a no-go for a beginner like me!
Challenging accompaniments.
Nice rhythmic melody. Great rhythm. Excellent explanations.
Really helps me progress
Right amount of challenge and lots of fun
Latin FTW
Taking this course together with John's course on *The girl from Ipanema* in parallel finally made the latin comping rhythm stick. Daine playing it at different tempos was a key element. Just counting it was not enough for me (at this age), when I ran out of hands to clap with :-) Of course, who would not enjoy playing Montuno after having it spelled out. Other courses have touched the latin beat, but it was not the main focus there as it was here. This opens the way to several other courses, I think/hope.
