Legendary Blues
I have known and liked the piece for decades and that are many years before I decided to pick up piano playing in a more diligent manner. So I am very happy that the St. Louis Blues is a topic of several courses. Especially this course is crucial to learn the piece thoroughly and enjoy playing it. I'll add it to my favorite pieces when playing for family and friends.
Good practice for the key of G
It’s great to spend some time in G plus learn some cool LH and RH embellishments that will come in handy down the road. It all adds up!
How to Play a Blues Shuffle for Beginner Piano
This is a great course. Jonny does a great job of explaining and breaking down everything. He explains the beginner and the intermediate with hands seperate and hands together. Once I master this one I'm off to the next.
sounds great
like that bass pattern
Fun Fun Lesson!!
I appreciate the detailed instruction from the ground up.
