Thanks so much for these videos and lessons. I'm learning a lot. But I'm not quite understanding the logic behind some of this fingering. Is this something that just has to be memorized or what is the practicality of it?

Can I play notes without following which finger should be used? can I instead use whichever finger is comfortable for me?

As always thank you so much. Noticed the haircut. Very nice lol

I know this is 2 years ago but I hope you'll soon read my question. What is that symbol in D (last D) of your left hand exercise - reading sharps and flats 1 (first example)? thank you! Anyways, you're good online teacher!

Hello sir, Ive been following these lessons. I just want to know if professional pianist (or organist, idk if there's such word) look at the keyboard too when they play so that they keep their fingers on proper position? If yes, then do they have to memorize their piece? Thanks a lot.

Please let me have the piano notes on hard copy especially for left hand

[alvinmccranie]

For the left hand examples for the flats, were those quarter notes?

[HolyShitGuitar]

I think having the letters above the staff made this lesson a bit too easy
