Part 3 of our Piano Gym series! We tackle the Speed Bag drill (eighth notes, triplets, semiquavers on E7โฏ) and the Rope Climb pattern. Practice along and level up your chord fluency. Watch part 4 for the pyramid sets breakdown! ๐น Take one chord and build ten gym-style piano workouts around it. In this practical lesson we use a single E7 (dominant seventh) chord and turn it into a full technique session that transfers to any chord you like. First we break down the E7 shape โ root, major third, fifth and flat seventh โ with sensible fingering for both hands and all four positions: root, first, second and third inversion. Then we run the ten drills: the inversion ladder, the siren, piano jumping jacks, the horn throw, the dead hang, the speed bag, the rope climb, the pyramid set, the crunch and a cool-down stretch. Along the way you'll practise arpeggios against block chords, alternating two-note patterns, tritone swaps between the third and flat seventh, finger-by-finger lifts, speed work with a bouncing wrist, hand-crossing and accent groupings in twos, threes, fives and sevens. This is for pianists who can build chords but want them to feel musical and coordinated. Get your piano out, start slow and try every workout on other chords around the circle of fifths โ then tell us your favourite gesture for the horn throw in the comments. ๐ซ Courses, Workshops or Private lessons โก๏ธ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= ๐น Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) - https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ ๐ก Visit our Channel for more Tutorials & Performances - https://geni.us/NathanielYouTube ============================= โถ๏ธ Related Videos & Playlists ๐ Improvise over ONE chord - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9oizLJPiwwH_gvSH-IFu_V ๐ Making Chord Practice FUN with Circle of Fifths - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-D6G1jDe18TFflopjjnxRG ๐๏ธ Chord Voicing & Inversions - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC ๐ Arpeggios - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-BCpTe-KKSdiKlAFMvYNsH ๐ถ Hand Independence - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-On4vodpAoZqTlWDCS5jv7 ============================= ๐ Learn Music With Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac: https://nathanielschool.com ๐ All our YouTube lessons (1000+) categorised by skill level, topic & genre all in one place: https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com ๐ฐ Donate on PayPal: https://geni.us/DonatePayPal ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac ๐ Call +91 98454 65411 ยท ๐ฌ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 ๐ง Customised & Private Classes: music@nathanielschool.com ๐ง Listen to Jason Zac Music: https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #PianoChords #ChordInversions #PianoPractice
Learn to practise piano thirds in G major and G harmonic minor with unique ascending and descending rhythm patterns for both hands. In this piano lesson, Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music walks you through a comprehensive exercise on thirds using two essential scales โ G major and G harmonic minor. This is a scale-practice drill with a twist: unique rhythm patterns built into every ascent and descent. You'll learn how thirds are formed by writing scales in a circle and skipping notes, plus how the augmented second interval in the harmonic minor creates that signature three-step leap. We break down both closed thirds and spread thirds, giving intermediate pianists a real technical workout. The rhythm patterns include 16th notes, dotted notes, tied notes, and rests โ organised in a 4/4 pulse. You'll practise descending thirds with one rhythm figure and ascending thirds with another, starting from different scale degrees each time. This retrains your brain to think of scales beyond just root-to-root, which is essential for improvisation and sight reading. We also cover three different left-hand approaches: holding the pulse on the starting note, mirroring the right hand with carbon-copy thirds, or playing linear scale notes underneath the thirds in the right hand. For advanced players, Jason introduces spread third voicings that produce beautiful triad harmonisations across both hands. Practise minimum three scales a week, count out loud, move your body with the pulse, and enjoy building real technical fluency at the piano. ๐ซ Courses, Workshops or Private lessons โก๏ธ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= ๐น Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) - https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ ๐ก Visit our Channel for more Tutorials & Performances - https://geni.us/NathanielYouTube ============================= โถ๏ธ Related Videos & Playlists ๐ฌ Major Esque vs Minor Esque โ 8 Scales Explained (Part 1) - https://youtu.be/bmy_bXpE900 ๐ฏ Major-Esque Scales You NEED To Know (Part 2) - https://youtu.be/9aKo3JsXkMo ๐ Minor-Esque Scales Decoded: Exotic to Traditional (Part 3) - https://youtu.be/_DbME-fKHiI ๐ก Understand Any Scale Instantly: Major-esque & Minor-esque Framework (full lesson) - https://youtu.be/M88ABjQn0Lo ๐ Scales & Modes - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT_8KkjOUBofqzyhbgGkROE- ============================= ๐ Learn Music With Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac: https://nathanielschool.com ๐ All our YouTube lessons (1000+) categorised by skill level, topic & genre all in one place: https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com โณ Chapter markers 00:00 - Performance 00:28 - Introduction ๐น 00:54 - Ascending & Descending Thirds 01:24 - Why Practise Thirds? 01:39 - What Youโll Learn in This Lesson 02:21 - The Two Scales: G Major & G Harmonic Minor 02:38 - Understanding Harmonic Minor ๐ผ 02:53 - The Augmented 2nd Interval Explained 03:21 - How to Form Thirds: The Circle Method 04:21 - Piano Shapes 04:41 - Part 1: The Descending Rhythm Pattern ๐ฅ 05:17 - Descending from different points 06:32 - Counting 16th Notes: 1 e and a 07:23 - Applying the Rhythm to G Major Thirds 07:59 - Left Hand Option 1: Hold the Pulse 09:22 - Left Hand Option 2: Carbon Copy Both Hands 10:16 - Left Hand Option 3: Linear Scale Descent 11:01 - All 3 LH Patterns 11:27 - Descending Thirds in G Harmonic Minor 13:04 - Both Hands Carbon Copy Practice 14:05 - The Ascending Rhythm Pattern ๐ต 15:09 - G Major Thirds Ascending 16:01 - Ascending from Every Scale Degree 16:58 - G Harmonic Minor Ascending Thirds 17:12 - Retraining Your Scale Knowledge ๐ง 18:05 - Fingering Tips for Thirds 18:20 - Intro to Spread Thirds (Advanced) ๐ผ 18:50 - Harmonising with Spread & Closed Thirds Together 19:36 - Jumbling the Order for Creative Practice 20:01 - Homework: Three Scales a Week 20:20 - Recap & Final Thoughts ๐ฐ Donate on PayPal: https://geni.us/DonatePayPal ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/jasonzac ๐ Call +91 98454 65411 ยท ๐ฌ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 ๐ง Customised & Private Classes: music@nathanielschool.com ๐ง Listen to Jason Zac Music: https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoThirds #RhythmDrill #PianoTechnique
Learn 5 left hand piano patterns across 5 keys using one harmonic concept โ explore rock, blues, and folk grooves with Jason Zac. Ever wondered how one simple harmonic idea can sound like five completely different genres? In this lesson, Jason Zac walks you through five left hand piano patterns across five different keys โ each one shifting the entire vibe of your music. We start with a power chord foundation and build outward using 6ths, 7ths, major and minor intervals. Because the third is left undefined, these voicings work in both major and minor contexts โ giving you incredible harmonic flexibility for improvisation. You'll explore patterns in E, G#, Ab, F#, B, and A โ moving through rock, blues, folk, and even experimental time signatures like 5/8 and 7/8. Each key gets its own rhythmic pattern with carefully placed accents and gaps that change the entire feel of your playing. A highlight of this lesson is Jason's tip on right hand improvisation: sing your melody first, then play it. This unlocks new rhythmic and melodic ideas that your fingers alone might never discover. We also touch on blues scales, Dorian mode, Mixolydian flavour, and how to mix the third for fresh harmonic colour.

Learn to play triplets on piano with this melodic exercise โ eighth note, quarter note & sextuplet triplets explained with fingering & licks. Triplets are the heartbeat of so much music โ especially in Indian, sub-continental, and Eastern traditions โ yet they're one of the most under-taught rhythms in Western piano curriculum. In this lesson, Jason Zac walks you through a complete triplet exercise built around a beautiful B minor melody. You'll learn the four key types of triplets: eighth note triplets (the standard), sextuplets (divide by six), quarter note triplets (the hemiola), and half note triplets. Jason demonstrates how to transition smoothly between semiquaver (divide-by-four) feel and triplet (divide-by-three) feel โ a skill that instantly elevates your rhythmic vocabulary. The melodic exercise itself moves through B minor, D major over F#, and A major (with an added 4th), incorporating harmonized thirds, dominant chord licks, and tasteful Indian-style grace notes. You'll get detailed piano fingering for tricky passages across black notes, plus a simplified beginner version if the ornamental playing feels too advanced right now. This lesson is especially valuable if you're an Indian, Sri Lankan, Nepali, or other Eastern musician โ or anyone who wants to internalise triplets beyond just counting "one-and-a, two-and-a." Jason also touches on konakol syllables (thakita) and how different cultures accent triplets uniquely.

Learn quintal voicings on piano โ a colourful left hand technique using stacked perfect fifths to replace boring 1-5 octave drones. Tired of your left hand sounding muddy, thin, or stuck on a boring 1-5 octave drone? In this piano lesson, Jason Zac breaks down the quintal voicing โ a beautiful left hand technique built from two stacked perfect fifths that adds instant colour to any chord. We focus on two specific voicings: F#add9 and Ebm9. You'll learn why these voicings sound rich in the lower register of the piano, how to play them as block chords or broken arpeggios, and three different rhythmic patterns to apply them โ including 4/4 and 3/4 time feels, plus a syncopated pattern that leaves space for the snare drum. Once the left hand is solid, we shift to building a right hand melody using chord tones (3-2-3-5-3-2-1). This is a powerful compositional approach because every note is guaranteed to fit the harmony. Jason then shows you how to ornament the tune with grace notes and reverse grace notes, and how to develop independence between the hands by practising in fragments. The lesson wraps up with a complimenting counter melody and an AABA / AABB structure you can use to extend your ideas into a full piece. We also touch on improvisation, time signature variations (5/8, 7/8), and how the F# pentatonic scale lets you improvise on the black keys alone. Perfect for intermediate pianists working on accompaniment, film scoring, or contemporary piano composition.

Train your ear and hands to tell apart triplets, semiquavers and clave feels on piano. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music shows you how to execute rhythms that sound almost identical but feel completely different. You'll explore triplets, semiquavers (16ths), swing and clave patterns, and how to apply them over scales, chords and even while singing. You'll learn how triplets create a flowing feel versus the forward drive of semiquavers, how to use konnakol to subdivide rhythms, and how to practise with a metronome at 70-80 bpm with accents and syncopation. You'll also apply the drills on major and minor scales and explore Son, Rumba and Bossa claves. ๐ซ Courses, Workshops or Private lessons โก๏ธ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Introduction 00:32 - 1- Beat Structure 00:53 - 2- Beat Rhythm 01:34 - 1-Beat Division โ Quavers (Eighth Notes) 03:36 - Add Traditional Swing Feel 04:54 - Straight vs Swing Explained 05:12 - Dividing the Beat into 4 (Semiquavers) 06:20 - How Swing is felt 06:53 - 1 Beat and 2 hits 08:57 - Dotted Feel vs Straight 09:17 - Dividing by 2 & 4 10:16 - Semiquaver vs Quaver Pulse 12:12 - Swinging the Semiquaver Feel 12:46 - Triplet Feel 13:03 - Semiquavers: Swing vs Straight 13:17 - Quaver Feel in Context 14:52 - Applying Rhythms Over 2 Beats 15:19 - The Famous Tresillo 16:29 - Quarter-Note Triplets 16:54 - D Minor Triplet Example 17:54 - Dividing the Triplet by 3 19:00 - Understanding the Dotted Quaver Feel 19:24 - Tresillo (Revisited) 19:52 - Triplet Variations 20:06 - Rhythm Patterns Across a Bar 20:34 - Son Clave 21:20 - Rumba Clave 22:49 - Bossa Clave 24:08 - Capping off the three Claves 25:11 - Recap & Wrap-Up 26:21 - Conclusion ============================= ๐น Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) โก๏ธ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ ๐น Piano Courses & Private Lessons โก๏ธ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= โถ๏ธ Related Lessons & Playlists ๐ต Music Theory lessons โก๏ธ https://geni.us/PianoTheory ๐น All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) โก๏ธ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC ๐ Ear Training lessons โก๏ธ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= ๐ Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac โก๏ธ https://nathanielschool.com ๐ All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre โก๏ธ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= ๐ฐ Donate on PayPal โก๏ธ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal ๐ธ Instagram โก๏ธ https://instagram.com/jasonzac ๐ Call +91 98454 65411 ยท ๐ฌ WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 ๐ง Customised & Private Classes โก๏ธ music@nathanielschool.com ๐ง Listen to Jason Zac Music โก๏ธ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #Triplets #ClaveRhythm #PianoRhythm
