If you do not agree with his method then don’t watch his videos! I think he is pretty clear about his ideology and how it is different to all that’s been said before in our well known music schools, if we want to try something fast, fun and different this is definitely a GREAT OPTION!

Thanks, I am planning to read the book.

In some ways I agree with you. What you aren’t seeing here is the introduction to this method. This would probably be more to your liking if you read Scott Houston’s books (at least the original “Play Piano In A Flash”). The book, as an introduction to this method goes much deeper and would probably make this video more to your liking.
I was a classical guitarist for years & fingering is EVERYTHING. The books introducing this method do go more in to fingering. I was skeptical until I read them.

I agree. I have heard a very good classical pianist say that she will practice a different fingering pattern sometimes depending on the speed of the passage. When you improvise on the piano with and think on the fly, it’s certainly good idea to know all the scales backward and forward and every which way in between but sometimes a new idea can still back you in the corner and you just have to do the best you can.

Agreed, *IF* you play a tune the same way every time you play it. However, my goal is to change things up or “noodle around” every time I play a tune, which potentially changes the fingering every time. Therefore, practicing one particular fingering vs. another seems not to be the best use of my limited brainpower

There is a more logical way to finger a tune. I think fingering is extremely important, because it is all about good habits. And it is more easy to play a song if you have practiced great fingering habits. So I think you are too loose there Scott.

Great to see you back in action, the drums in background are especially inspiring. I’m a drummer first, you are (were?) too if memory serves. A bit early for Christmas though, as much as I should start now.

“Every Good Boy Does Fine” Hahaha, in Elementary school, ours was ‘Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge.’
Great video! I now know how to play Silent Night.
