"There was a time when I wasn't able to do the Arpeggios" Yeah, when he was like 2 years old

Jordan Rudess finally getting the recognition that he deserves

Massive Dream Theatre fan here, and adult learner pianist. Can't believe Jordan Rudess is teaching us arpeggios! ❤

So this is what Hogwarts students feel like

I'm not a pianist, but he is such a joy to observe.

Amazing how Jordan can understand our "human" problems :) Great material.

Few people through out history comes close to Mr. Rudess. As a Long time Dream Theater fan (mid 90's), i've had the pleasure of being "along for the ride". I recommend anyone who listens to this to listen to some Dream Theater, if they haven't already. All the guys are incredibly talented, and the music is master class.

Rudess has the skill of making piano technique and theory seem fascinating. I've studied piano at a conservatory and based on my partial experience he is one of a kind inspirational musician and a teacher.

Wow, this was a breakthrough. Instead of worrying about the motion to get there--just go there, and once you're there, it's natural. Like a years worth effort just clicked into place near instantly.

This was such a great video. He described perfectly my problem with the tuck under, which I was doing from the first chord position instead of doing it while transitioning already to the second position. I just tried it and man, oh man, what a difference. Thank you Jordan and Pianote!

As a keyboard player/composer I was always fascinated by arpeggios and never got them right, I'm still learning to perfect them and use them more and more in my solos.

The best video I've ever seen in My entire life! Thank you!!

Great teacher

What really helped me is to figure out that the rhythm and the proper arm movement is more important than hitting the right notes 100% of the time when beginning to learn this. The note accuracy will improve with repetition, but at the beginning of this process it’s important to go faster than your personal comfort zone mandates. I know this is confusing to newbies, because tutorials always talk about playing slow with accuracy to learn to play fast, but that isn’t the same thing as what I’m describing above. When playing slow you are working on proper striking technique, but when doing what’s described in this video you are mastering the arm movement up and down the keyboard and pushing yourself to play at a faster rhythm. That’s why the “bursts” he talks about are important.

This is actually a great video for explaining how to make big jumps in your playing (if you understand it). The movement aspect of playing is not taught enough, and here Jordan teaches that. I remember playing 'downtown' once and I couldn't get it ... until I realised I had to move my arm about an inch forward on a certain phrase...It's all about discovering other people's techniques, and then if you get good enough, the other way around!!!

Jordan: "Wanna see me do this super fast arpeggio?" ... Jordan: "Wanna see me do it again?"

One of the greatest pianist ever!!!!

really joy to see Rudess there again. Big fan of him!

I'm a pianist and Dream Theater fan. This lesson is great. Thanks a lot Jordan!
