True
Legit had the same thought
Right! He’s such an amazing teacher!
Undoubtedly so
Transpose in G and you'll get "Creep"
Good analysis :) one of my favorite chord progressions!
YOU'RE a creep!! 😅
I was thinking it sounded like creep, then your replied confirmed it.
transpose to f major and you'll get steven universe main theme
I literally have to play this for my concert Friday😐
12 minutes of logical instruction without any unnecessary tangents makes it easier to follow. Love it. Also appreciate, as a newbie, the info on using the sustain pedal and not assuming we all know how to use it properly. Thank you!
Never touched a musical instrument in my life, bought a 66 keys keyboard for my 7 years old 1 month ago and here I am trying to understand and play the content of this video to help him progress. Thank you youtube for the possibility of slowing down the video!
I am an intermediate self taught keyboard player with Yamaha PSR SX900 .Today I found this absolutely brilliant video from Ted .I can play any chord and was looking out for a video for hand coordination and arpeggios when I found your channel.Your video is very clear and you explain really well and demonstrate how to play.I will definitely follow all your videos and thank you so much.Please keep giving us more such videos
Thanks for the kind words, will do!
Great choice of keyboard!
u define urself intermediate player...a 2K€ keyboard owner..ok
I’ve been looking for this kind of teaching for a long time. Great job . Thank you very much.
thank you very much..add more videos plz..
This is one of my favourite tutorials for piano chord rhythm patterns. Firstly he speaks slowly and calmly, gently - so you're not hit with hyped up loud fake enthusiasm - he also progresses slowly and explains EVERYTHING - so you're not left behind. He is a gifted teacher - which is rare in my book. He also has beautiful wide open childlike eyes - giving him a very approachable appearance. With all the bad press on Los Angeles - you might ask - how did something so beautiful come out of LA? Blessings brother.
I agree with just about everything you wrote. But, strange comment about Los Angeles.... there is some bad press just about everywhere I have lived! Ted, thank you again for your wonderful teaching videos!!
💯💯
Is not easy to find teachers like you Ted on YT. Please, don´t stop your videos
Loved the clarity and beauty of this video. Thanks so much!!
Im so grateful to know it
Underrated af The chord’s progression he uses is from Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ for those who’re wondering. The original goes G, B, C, Cm.
The original is the Hollies "Air That I Breathe"
I don’t think it’s fair to say its from “Creep” because its a pretty common chord progression
You don't have the right to say it's underrated
Cool channel Ted, love the video! 🙏🏻💪🏻
Its the real HDpiano! cant believe no one commented and know you from this vid
I first saw Ted in HD piano channel. I really thought he should start his own channel. I am glad he started. Ted is a hidden gem.
Loved the simplicity and the clarity. Thank you
I’m glad someone made a video on this FINALLY! I’ve been searching specific videos on rhythm for chord progressions for a while. Thank you for this direct, helpful video! 🙏
Loved the correlation between guitar and piano and the 16th base note.
You explain it so clear and with demonstration. Thanks for your tips!
This is by far the most helpful and easily digstable video I've seen on this subject. Thank you.
I listened to this entire tutorial in YT preview. Was absolutely glued.
Great instructional video. Love the 10-step process!
Thanks for the short but comprehensive course. I look forward to having your next one
that guitar analogy was amazing! Thank you!
Hello Ted! Thank God i came across your channel. I have been looking for a teacher like you. You are thorough with your teaching yet very easy to follow. I have learned a lot from this video alone. I hope you will continue making more videos and lessons like this. God bless and more power to you!
I love doing different versions for the different refrains. The more the refrain repeats, I make them more komplex. Keeps even a simple pop song interesting
Very calming and easy to follow your teachings. Your voice is very clear and makes a difference for me to follow what you’re teaching. Thank you very much!! Subscribed.
Loved this video…so helpful! I love seeing all the techniques I can use to make a basic chord progression sound more interesting. Would love to see more of these types of videos!

Thank you for this. I’m a guitarist learning piano, & I really liked how you related the rhythm concepts from guitar to piano. This helped me a lot
I really like the way to break this down. You’re good at splitting this into manageable steps.
I wish I had a teacher like you. A pleasure to watch

That was a superb short lesson--very useful
Ted, your clarity as a teacher is exceptional! Your initial comparative segment between piano and guitar - as well as between 2 versions on the piano - is enlightening as it breaks down the traditional dichotomy between strings and keys. I’m hoping to become more rhythmical by hanging out with you! Thanks very much👏
Saw this lesson and subscribed right away. Thanks very much. I’ll be looking at all your work and doing my best to apply it.
This is the first video of yours I’ve watched and immediately got the sense that not only are you a well rounded musician but an exceptional teacher also. Definitely subscribing! Thank you. :)
