40 lessons, 4 legendary artists

When taking up any instrument, the most efficient way to learn is through exercises and then putting them into practice in the context of songs that use the same techniques. MusicGurus New Orleans piano does this by teaching you songs by some of the greatest New Orleans blues artists of all time including, Dr John, James Booker, Professor Longhair, and Jelly Roll Morton. Across the course of 40 lessons, the techniques you will learn are broken down by Paddy in the form of some classic New Orleans Blues songs such as 'Tipitina', 'Junco Partner', and 'Somebody changed the Lock'. By doing this, you will learn all about the characteristics of the genre and understand different performance techniques that give rock 'n' roll its classic sound and also gain a portfolio of classic songs that you will not only be able to play but be able to fully understand how and why they are songs that define a genre.

Take the lessons at your own pace

There is nothing worse than the feeling of being rushed when trying to learn and understand something as deep and complex as music, after all, everyone takes on information at different rates and sometimes online learning platforms provide limited-time-only licenses and subscription services that pressure you into further purchases and more expensive subscription periods.

This means you can take the course at your own pace.
