I can’t believe that the Lydian sound is something I have used for years but never knew what it was. Thanks for this video!

Never thought about the Lydian scale but it sounds good when I used it in RnB

Bro i have laughed at myself after watching this. You are such a blessing, you've opened my eyes.... i have a 5year old piano student we were doing "amazing grace" song. there is part of the song that goes "that saved a wretch like me" i told her to use major two chord as the passing to the firth major...but then she made a mistake but i still felt it and i was like keep it going.. she played first major chord on her left and mojor two on right hand

If ever you give personal piano lessons within your area, one can see that you would be very patient, calm & encouraging. That helps pupils learn better and actually enjoy it. God bless you & yours. Keep up the beautiful work. ❤😊🙏
