Dear Creative,
If you want to experience the wonderful freedom of being able to sit and play piano music you’re proud of… whenever and wherever you want… then this page will show you how.
Picture this…
You’re in your room enjoying some private free time at the piano. Your spouse gently knocks and peeks in…
“That’s good! What is that?” they ask, surprised.
“Oh, I’m just playing around,” you smile.
Can you imagine how great that will feel?
So, what is the secret to confidently playing beautiful piano music even if you’re a total beginner?
As soon as you discover the 3 simple positions and basic building blocks I’ve been teaching thousands of students of all ages… magic happens. There’s really no other way to describe it.
Helps beginner pianists play beautiful music with confidence by discovering their inner musician.
Any aspiring pianist… whether you’re a beginner or not… can master my 3-step system to playing beautiful piano music.
All you need is about 10-15 minutes
a day of free “play time.”
No more pinball-machine-bouncing around the U-toobs searching for what to do next.
No more in-person lessons where you probably already had the passion beaten out of you.
And no more overwhelming piano methods making you feel like you’ll never sound good enough!
Now you have access to a COMPLETE Piano Method that takes you step-by-little step to playing head-turning music anytime you sit and play.
In just a minute, I’m going to show you 5 transformational tools at the heart of my method. They’ve helped thousands of beginners go from knowing nothing to confidently playing piano for pleasure. And I’m going to show you how you can get all 5 of these tools–and many more–all in one convenient location.
But first, let me explain why this is…
Possibly The Most Unique, Unconventional,
and Effective Piano Method for Beginners!
In my 20+ years of teaching piano, I’ve seen everything… both in private 1-on-1 lessons and with my nearly 300,000 YouTube subscribers who’ve watched my videos nearly 11 million times.
What do they all have in common? Almost every one of them wishes they could just sit and play piano.
You just want to be able to tinker around and feel good about what you’re playing for yourself and for your family.
The problem is, you’ve either…
- Never touched a piano in your life…
- Always felt like you didn’t have a musical bone in your body…
- Had lessons with an old-school teacher who made you feel dumb, or ashamed, or completely uninterested… who forced boring nursery rhymes upon you… or…
- You’ve been trying to figure it all out on your own… bouncing around the U-toob pinball machine without any real path to getting where you want to be or playing how you want to play.
It’s not your fault.
"Such a powerful creativity method."
"I'm so impressed with Josef's method! I've been teaching music at the university level for 15+ years and have never seen such a powerful "creativity" method. Any aspiring pianist at any age or level of proficiency can make beautiful music using these lessons. I couldn't help but play along myself, even as a professional musician!
Josef doesn't just teach you to play piano. He teaches you real musical creativity, which is FAR more powerful!"
- Dr. Douglas Pew,
award-winning composer
"Ideal for me, a total beginner."
"I always wanted to play, but never got around to it. When I decided to start, I found Josef on YouTube and liked his demeanor. He's so calm. I'm a total beginner. Like, 1 finger at a time. The main reason I like Josef is, he does little things, shows you some little routine. It can be very basic, which is ideal for me. And now I'm picking things up a lot quicker. I have lots of enjoyment. He adds one little new thing each time. It's a little bit added to the sauce, but it's very gradual, that's what I love about it. You get a basis, you add a little, then a little more. And now I can read music too, even the bass clef!"
- Alan McCormick
Even the most popular online piano courses don’t have very realistic methods to get you where you want to be.
And without a clear path from start to finish… from zero to hero… it’s nearly impossible to get off the dizzying piano merry-go-round.
Let me show you exactly how I’m going to help you grow from beginner to confident, creative pianist… how to sit down at any piano and play beautiful, head-turning music on demand… music that flows freely from your own mind, into your fingers, and out into the world… no matter how little experience you’ve had in the past.
I’ve gone to considerable lengths to create an all-inclusive… take it at your own pace… brand-new… step-by-little-step course to give you the creative piano skills of your favorite songwriters.
Here’s a BIG secret none of the other piano methods teach…
You Don’t Need To Learn To Play Other People’s Songs
Note-for-Note to Become REALLY Good REALLY Fast
In fact, I don’t teach you ANY songs note-for-note inside this course.
And that is one of the reasons why this method is SO powerful… especially for beginners.
“But, Josef, I want to learn how to play…”
- “Don’t Stop Believing”
- “Let It Be”
- “Houses of the Rising Sun”
- “Music Box Dancer”
- “Truman Sleeps”
- “Can You Feel the Love Tonight?”
“Can’t you teach me how to play these songs?”
Of course I can!
However…
"Very satisfied!"
"Josef gave me lots of little successes. The skills he has us practice sneak in slowly and almost undetected. And then suddenly, SURPRISE, there they are, clear to see and hear in your playing. Now I'm much farther along than I imagined. Very satisfied. It works!"
- Bernd Haller, Germany
I’m going to give you something
FAR more useful and FAR more effective…
Something that will practically guarantee your ongoing enjoyment. Something to give you confidence in your playing for years to come.
"Can't believe I'm actually doing it."
“This really made your entire process click for me. Suddenly, I’m actually doing it–playing on the fly! It’s not Mozart, but my son loved it and asked me to “do it again.” I’m so proud of myself and can’t believe I’m actually doing it! As you say, it’s a wonderful feeling. Love your unique style, just what the doctor ordered.”
- David, United Kingdom
And this is a BIG reason why my method has helped so many thousands of aspiring musicians play beautiful, head-turning, melodic music.
You’re going to have the creative tools to make music using the same building blocks as your musical heroes… superstars like Adelle, The Beatles, Einaudi, Billy Joel, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Elton John, and many others
The key is to…
Stop Learning Songs! They’re Slowing You Down!
Instead, Learn These Basic Patterns and Positions.
Sure, I can teach you to play one song at a time. But then that’s all you’ll know how to do.
Instead of giving you a fish to eat when you’re hungry, I’m going to teach you how to fish so you can feed yourself forever.
Plus…
Most teachers only show you how to play chords.
That’s it! But, what about the melody?
It’s the melody that really pulls you into a song and gets the music to stick in your head.
With my method, the ability to play powerful melodies is built into everything you’ll learn. Every pattern. Every chord progression. Every hand position. You literally can’t NOT play melodically when following this method.
With all the tools, patterns, positions, built-in melody mechanisms, and other techniques you’ll discover in this course…
You can… very realistically… go from knowing NOTHING to turning heads every time you play.
Before you know it, you’ll love what you’re hearing. You’ll get so much enjoyment from your playing, you’ll lose track of time as your inner musician emerges bit by bit.
You’ll get into a creative flow and make your OWN sounds. Which means you’ll be playing the piano to please YOURSELF. Not to please or satisfy some stuffy old teacher.
"A no-brainer."
"I'm progressing 10-times faster since using Josef's method. The organization of the material is excellent. I'm an expert in online education myself and what he's doing is great. He doesn't just teach you to play songs, he gives you formulas that allow me to do a lot more. Plus, the investment is a no-brainer. I can't see how anybody could ask for a refund because the quality is there."
- Craig Miller
These 3 Simple Right-Hand Positions
Unlock the Entire Piano
To turn heads with your playing, you need to tap your inner creativity.
It may sound a little woo-woo and impossible for a beginner, right? Actually, it’s MUCH easier than it sounds.
All it takes is combining the 3 simple piano positions I’m going to teach you with a spoonful of persistence.
Actually, you really only need Positions #1 and #2. Position #3 is just icing on the cake.
These 3 positions contain the building blocks that gave birth to most of the famous piano songs you love. They're the ones songwriters like Paul McCartney and Adele use. But they're not the only ones. Yiruma and Einaudi use them to create those wonderful solo piano pieces and melodies too.
In fact, once you roll up your sleeves and feel these positions in your own fingers...
Your inner musician begins to emerge!
Now I’m going to show you 5 tangible reasons why the “Sit & Play Play” method is more effective for beginners (and even for intermediate pianists) that any other course on the market.
To sum it up, I don’t teach you piano. I teach you to be a musician.
With these 5 tools, anyone, even total beginners can transform from wannabe pianists into creative musicians.
3-Part Curriculum Cycle
Throughout the course, you won’t just be force-fed a bunch of knowledge and then have to figure it out on your own. With each big concept, I take you through a simple 3-part cycle to get the music into your fingers. You’ll…
- Learn the musical concept…
- Play beautiful music using the concept…
- Use the concept to create your own beautiful music and even enter a creative flow.
Then we simply add a new musical ingredient every time we repeat the cycle. Without this simple cycle, you’d only learn the basic techniques. You’d never have enough to actually use them or let the music be part of you.
Songwriter’s Secret Code
All great songwriters use this secret code of excellence. But it works just as well for pianists–and especially beginner pianists! Because you haven’t been locked into years of intense hand mechanics that almost always keep top-notch pianists from tapping their full creativity.
With each new pattern I teach, I encourage you to (1) create something new, then really (2) learn to play it, and then (3) throw it away. And then do it again and again to exercise your “creativity” muscles.
Follow-Along Visuals
Many piano methods show the hands from above. But “Sit & Play Piano” goes MUCH further. You get to follow along visually in each lesson with…
- Overhead visuals of my hands…
- Colored digital keyboard notes so you can see exactly which notes I strike…
- A sustain pedal indicator light…
- Chord symbols so you can start thinking about harmony…
- Notation of every note I play so you can begin or continue your musical literacy.
You couldn’t get even half of this visual information in a traditional in-person lesson.
Jammin’ With Josef
This might be my favorite, and possibly the most powerful “transformation tool” of all.
At the end of almost every short video lesson, I provide a “Play Along” session. This is where you get to try your hands at what you just learned.
But you don’t have to figure it out alone. I play along with you and give you extra tips as we go. You follow along on-screen to see exactly what I play at each and every moment. As we play together, your creativity will go into hyper-drive.
Plus, you can slow it down or speed it up. You can even loop those difficult-to-play sessions and practice however you like, all in your own time.
“Real Musician” Roadmap
Aren’t you tired of pinging around U-Toob like a pinball machine trying to find an actual path? How do you know what to do first, second, third, and beyond?
Sure, you can keep enjoying the free tutorials. But there’s no substitute for a clear, direct path from start to finish. And this is what you find in the “Real Musician” Roadmap.
If you follow each step I lay out, you will gain the confidence and ability to sit and play piano whenever and wherever you want.
How to Play In Any Key
After completing parts 1 through 6, you’ll have the ability and the freedom to play music your family and friends will love. And in this first “Further Study” section, I’ll show you how to use what you’ve learned and apply it to any other key.
We’ll begin in G major and D major, but you’ll have everything you need to continue expanding into other key areas… wherever your newfound spirit of creativity moves you.
How to Unlock New Worlds of Expression in 6/8 Time
Now it’s time to expand your horizons even further and open up whole new soundscapes of possibility. All this and more is possible simply by adding a new musical meter to the mix. In this final “Further Study” section I’ll show you how to apply everything you’ve learned to this point in the time signature of 6/8.
It is a lovely, lilting, even comforting time signature. It’s all very simple, yet your emotional playing potential will nearly double simply by adding this new time signature to your toolkit.
Let’s “FEEL” the Rhythm (Intro to Rhythm & Pulse)
($197 Value)
It’s one thing to know where to put your hands on a keyboard to make beautiful music. It’s another thing to get into the flow of musical timing. That's why I’ve put together this complete 8 lesson course, to help you get into the groove of musical rhythm and pulse.
Inside you’ll turn rhythm into a strength using my rhythm “grid.” Plus, we’ll work through exercises to help you feel the pulse with ease. You'll get deeper into the creative potential of rhythm so you quickly sound much more like a pro.
The Creative Flow Companion Guide
($97 Value)
Working to play with free flowing creativity can be overwhelming. In this “jam session,” I'll help you shake off the worry and frustration of free creativity. As we play together, everything will begin to click. You'll glide into the wonderful freedom of just being able to sit and play.
So, what would it cost if you wanted to get this kind of helpful instruction from traditional sources?
Well, you could enroll in a…
Music Academy or University
for $5,000 up to $30,000 a year.
Ouch! But it would be quite overwhelming and very intense. Not the kind of environment that breeds the joy and wonder of creative music-making you want to have.
Or, you could enroll in…
Private Lessons
for $50 a week, $2,500 a year.
Yikes! But you’d probably end up having the passion of making music beaten out of you. Perhaps this happened to you as a kid? Perhaps an even bigger issue is, you’d start playing to please someone else, your teacher. And the enrollment dues for “Sit & Play Piano” would only get you about 6 weeks of traditional piano lessons anyway. And I guarantee you, 6 weeks of traditional piano lessons won’t even scratch the surface of the progress and confidence you’ll get inside this course.
Or, you could ignore traditional methods and enroll in…
“Sit & Play Piano” Course
16+ Hours of Kind, Expert, Step-by-Step Guidance Along
with Built-In “Play Along” Software Tools!
Inside each lesson you can slow down every exercise and take it at your own pace. You get to play along with me and work on your creativity in a safe, secure environment with a helpful mentor.
