Easy Jazz Piano - I bet you $1,000,000 you can play it!!

Alright here's an easy jazz piano progression for beginners. And when I say I bet you a million dollars you could play it, I mean it! As long as you follow the exact steps I outline in the video.

It's basically a specific chord progression that LOOKS a lot harder than it is to play, but once you get the hang of it, it's VERY easy to improv over, even if you're a beginner.

I got my digital piano THREE DAYS AGO. I found your 4 chords video, then this video and practiced for about an hour. My brother is a lifelong jazz pianist and I called him up, put it on speakerphone and just played the left hand chords. There was a pause, and he went, "Wait, you JUST GOT your piano. How did you do that??" This is almost one of the reasons I even started playing, to get that specific reaction from him!!! I'm your student for life, Zach. Thank you so much.

Hi 11 months passed since I left my first comment on this tutorial. I worked in the past 11 months hard on my lessons. I was an absolute beginner that time 11 months ago. It was quite challenging doing what you explained. But in the meanwhile I got some finger strenght it is ridicoulus simple to play this now. All my thumbs up! BTW: I started with a cheap electric piano I purchased. Thought, well if I will not stay with this new hobby I put it to the garbage. But now I am close to purchase a real good piano because playing piano is facinating me more than when I started. To all other elderly starters: Don't be frustrated at the beginning. It is quite challenging. But all your practising - tt pays and makes you that much proud at the end playing on the piano. I write from Germany. I am now 63 years old. Never too late start playing piano!

I am an experienced piano player but I've never studied anything about Jazz ever before and the exact moment you started teaching the first step I got so mind blown by how easy it was and how good sounding it is. I feel I am the one who owes you a million dollars, amazing work!

I really wanted that but you explained it so well❤️

Tried it but turns out I don't even have a piano... Where's my mil ?

[andreasmaier]

this is a voice from Germany: Thank you very much for this lesson. I tried it and really got it in less than a week on a friend's piano. I decided to purchase now a piano to improve that all what I have learned. And by the I am 62 years old. Thank you so much what you do. I learned in the late 60's Accordeon. But my teacher that times was a complete failure. So for you: All my fingers up!

I’m loving your style, (improve over chord progressions), who would have thought learning to play piano could be this easy. I bought an electric piano a few years back but now it’s finally started to pay off. This is what I’ve always needed.

[simonankuma]

you're an actual legend, I've got a school concert and this is my key to success man. thanks so much for this video

This took me like 15 mins to master. Such an amazingly simple chord progression. It just sounds angelic. Love it

[HasanWarrior]

Man, I’m so convinced I can, not only, learn with you but learn quickly without ever being bored.

This video has helped me so much, I got the chords down in like, 30 minutes, and now, I have created so many improv pieces now thanks to your chords.
It’s amazing and I wanted to say thank you for uploading this video, you’ve helped me heaps! ♥️♥️

He just gave you a million bucks with this lesson, but most of you in the comments are too lazy to take the five minutes to cash that check! if you spent 1/2 as much time practicing the lesson as you did writing your extremely detailed, elaborate, and winded excuses asking for 1mil you would be playing it. Great Lesson!

Well done! I've been playing piano for over 50 years, but this is the easiest and best music theory hack I've ever heard. I'm loving using it for just doodling around on the keyboard. Very relaxing and confidence building. Thanks a million!

[jimcavallo]

Over the past 2 years, due in part to your instruction and encouragement I have progressed somewhat beyond the complete beginner stage. I thank you for that. But this video has addressed my favorite aspect of piano, improvisation. I've also purchased some of your other course content. They have helped immensely. I know no one can work completely free haha. Thanks again Zach...

I've always dreamt of playing the piano since i was a child but never got the chance to learn it. Now i have a 3 year old daughter and I want her to learn it like a pro. She has the interest but I cant teach her, so i decided to learn by myself and searched from YouTube. Your channel so far is the only one giving me full lessons for FREE and at the easiest way possible. Thank you Zach!!! You're amazing! Keep doing what you do. My daughter loves you so much! She watches your videos too!

[Leklita]

Zach YOU ARE THE BEST PIANO TEACHER Why have I only discovered you just now?!?!?! God bless you!!!! You are gifted with You can explain the most complex things in the simplest way!!!!

[mega.monica]

omg, THANK YOU, it feel so awesome to play this. Ive been a strictly classical trumpet player for over 10 years and could never do jazz improv. I thought it would be the same when I learned piano but this has inspired me so much...

[memedoggo]

THANKS! I've been practicing for about 3 weeks now and I think I mastered it
