"I feel so creative and enthusiastic! Josef is so inspiring, unlike the scary old teacher I used to have. Now I play 3 hours a day. I don't even want to have breakfast in the morning before I get some playing in!"

I just want to say how much I love this course. I put off starting it because I struggled with your YouTube tutorial before, but this time I realized I just needed to really learn the positions. Your exercises make everything click, and I’m no longer struggling to find the notes in each chord. It sounds beautiful, more complex than it is—and I love the “free time”!

"I love the way Josef has an easy approach. He’s easy to listen to, easy to follow, and you feel like you’re actually achieving something at the end of it. It’s very encouraging.
He will say… well, let’s try something else… and you realize you’re being challenged a little more. It allows you to progress how you want. He develops each topic and you realize as you’re learning more and more, you can make a simple piece of music sound so much better. I have a real sense of enjoyment!"

Just A Few Simple Ingredients Can Dramatically Change How Your Chords Sound
From: Josef Sykora
Where: West Yorkshire, UK
Dear Creative,
What if your piano chords could sound fuller, warmer, and more musical… without needing dozens of new fancy chord variations or years of technical study?
There’s a certain richness you hear when listening to pianists like Einaudi, Burt Bacharach, Carole King, or Paul McCartney.
Not because they’re playing anything flashy, but because the harmony feels full and they play with musicality and expression.
For many players, that kind of sound feels out of reach.
Beautiful, yes… but somehow beyond where they are right now.
In reality, the feeling of that sound is much closer than most people realise.
With a few small changes in how chords are spaced and played, you can dramatically change how the piano responds. Many beginners and early-intermediate players notice the difference surprisingly quickly.
From Thin And “Plunky” To Full And Expressive
Let me show you what I mean.
Most beginner chords sound thin not because the player is doing anything wrong, but because basic, tightly packed chord shapes don’t create much depth on the piano.
And while many methods eventually move beyond this, it’s often left until much later.
That’s unfortunate… because this shift doesn’t require complex theory or years of experience.
Once you understand a few simple principles about spacing and movement, even familiar chords start to sound very different.
The piano is, at its core, a percussion instrument. Hammers strike strings.
A Different Way Of Approaching Chords
To create warmth and richness, you need to work with that reality.
Instead of relying on closed, block-style chords, you’ll learn a way of playing that opens the harmony up and allows the sound to breathe.
This is what I call Majestic Chords.
They create depth and colour without needing lots of new shapes, turning simple, familiar chords into something much more musical.
All It Takes Is Two Core Hand Positions
With just two main hand positions, and small shifts up and down the keyboard, you can reuse the same basic shapes to create a wide range of textures and colours.
You’ll learn how to:
- Add richness without constant stretching
- Create movement without finger gymnastics
- Make simple harmonies feel intentional and musical
Most people are surprised by how natural this feels once they try it.

"I'm so impressed with Josef's fantastic majestic chords method! I've been teaching music at the university level for 15+ years and have never seen such a QUICK way for beginner and aspiring pianists to sound GREAT so quickly than Joe's chord method. I couldn't help buy play along myself, even as a professional musician!
"Josef doesn't just teach you to play piano. He teaches you to sound GREAT on the piano very, very quickly... far quicker than any other method I've seen before."
-DR. DOUGLAS PEW
award-winning composer
What This Changes At The Piano
Instead of feeling limited by basic chords, you start enjoying the sound you’re making.
You sit down, play a few shapes, and the piano responds with warmth and richness rather than something thin or brittle.
It becomes easier to stay at the keyboard longer, explore ideas, and feel creative again.
In fact, some students, once they get the hang of the technique, quite literally lose track of time as they explore just how musical they can sound.
And yes, this shift can happen much sooner than most people expect… often within just a couple of focused hours.
If you’d like to learn this approach step by step, I’ve put everything together for you inside a short, focused video course.

this dude!"
“I love the way Josef breaks it down into little chunks. It makes me feel a lot more comfortable playing. And he doesn’t jazz it up. He just gets on with it. He’s not showing off his own skill. I mean, yeah, the dude can really play. But it was kind of a surprise because he just teaches, he doesn’t show off.
"I’ve already got so much out of it. And it’s so reasonably priced. Totally recommend this dude!”

"I must try it on a grand piano one of these days"
Hi Josef. This technique is really stretching these old fingers of mine but it sounds so good. I must try it on a grand piano one of these days.

A final 'note' from Don - An existing Majestic Chords student...
"At 83 I am proof that, with Josef as teacher, it is never too late to begin playing piano!"
This course "Majestic Chords" is the best course I've taken. It teaches me to sound great, with minimal knowledge and effort. I highly recommend it if you want a skill that sounds beautiful, and easily memorised and varied, each time I play.
It is so well organized, with gradual increases in skill level that aren’t too abrupt or challenging, and helpful add-ons like “play along” and sheet music to print.
You are an excellent teacher, Josef, with empathy for us newbies, and pacing that fits our learning style.
My wife loves hearing me play these open chords, and remarks that I’m really getting good at playing the piano. I guess she has in mind my rudimentary playing, or rather struggling, with “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,” tee hee!
At 83 I am proof that, with Josef as teacher, it is never too late to begin playing piano!
Thanks so much. I’m learning and loving it!
