Very Helpful for Lead Sheets and Arranging!
The eight lessons in this course are put together in a similar pattern, which helps me to assimilate the content more easily. I know that I will be coming back to these to master all of the content, but I feel as if Jonny's methods give players of any level the tools they need to see quick results and progress.
Challenging but Beneficial
I enjoyed the way each lesson is clearly and thoughtfully laid out. The small steps are achievable and it is just a matter of practice to bring the tunes together. Very good course.
Blue…….
Loved this one the blues are fun!
Massive amount of skills and techniques to learn.
It’s taken me months to go through all the lessons in this course, there is so much content being taught and it’s all fundamental and essential stuff. Very brain and fingers expanding and huge amount of fun.
Play Piano lead sheets with 7th chords
As expected, a great course, It has taken time to get used to using block chords in my left hand, but I have perservered and am enjoying playing the songs and learning the progressions.
