Jazz Piano Fingerings – mDecks Music
A focused guided practice that teaches practical jazz piano fingerings and shifting strategies to play a Herbie Hancock–style line cleanly across keys.
Step through a repeatable practice routine that shows how to choose and test fingerings for arpeggios and descending lines, with specific tactics for crossing the thumb and avoiding awkward 5→4 moves between black and white keys. The lesson works one lick at a time, demonstrating how to establish an optimal fingering in a single key, practice it in loops, then extend it to adjacent keys and eventually all keys. Emphasis is on making finger choices that enable smooth shifts between positions and on drilling until the hand feels natural. A downloadable PDF with the written fingerings accompanies the lesson for quick reference.
