    I love how he weaves musicality into the drill. There’s no point in drilling silly fingering exercises that don’t reinforce the music, harmony, melody, rhythm. More Jordan Rudess please!!! How to play by ear would be amazing to see.
  • We need more Jordan Rudess on this channel please! Amazingly, Wonderfully, Wizardly Pianist the world has got!
  • @Ouvii
    Likely the best metal keyboardist of all time, and he's teaching us the C major scale. What a legend, I bet he came up with the progressions for the accompaniments on the spot.

    Not only an amazing player but a pretty decent teacher as well.
  • @MissMailer
    What a nice treat to see Rudess doing tutorials for mortals like me! What a legend!
  • @eekamak
    After 30 years of playing I wish I was thought like this!!! Thanks Jordan!
  • @DisruptedSinner
    I absolutely love this guy and these bursts. Saved to my Practice folder! Amazing lesson, thank you.
  • @phoenixshade3
    As mundane as this exercise seems, it's amazing how helpful it is to go through this whole lesson. I'm now following the same method for other keys (a bit more difficult since at least for some I have to alternate between 1-2-3 and 1-2-3-4), and I'm finding that this technique of working up one note at a time and really nailing the last one is really helping me to play scales faster and more evenly, which translates quite well into some of the pieces I'm working on.

    Thank You Jordan! I would love to sign up today but I need to work on knowing my cords first. I stopped playing for a few years but now I want to get back into playing. You have really inspired me to keep learning. I hope in the future you will be hosting a live channel again. Thank you!

    DT fan and drummer forever... Jordan inspired me to buy a piano and I love it... Love the way he teaches and makes it relatable... such a unique talent.
  • @glynnp42
    Wow! You are an amazing musician/keyboardist/teacher. As a beginner/baby intermediate, I was able to play this in 15 minutes. You are a genius Jordan. Thank you!
  • @jsferraguto
    There is literally no one better. Complete mastery of his instrument AND a phenomenal teacher.
  • This is just a good lesson for any instrument. Especially with the metronome counting in 4/4. Very simple starting point and still provides freedom to experiment with other notes. I need this today.
  • This is great! More Jordan, please! He's just a great teacher, among other great things! Besides being one of the best keyboard players in the world and one of the nicest guys, too.
