The video is a piano tutorial by Warren McPherson on how to play chords with melody.
Warren discusses the importance of learning to play chords and melody simultaneously as an intermediate skill.
He uses the example of Elton John's song "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" to illustrate his points.
The tutorial is divided into several steps: learning the song's structure (verse, chorus, etc.), understanding the harmonic rhythm (how often chords change), learning the melody alone, combining chords with melody, and experimenting with chord distribution between hands.
Warren emphasizes the need to harmonize melody notes with chord tones, and he suggests harmonization techniques such as using thirds and sixths for a fuller sound. He also highlights the importance of keeping the melody as the highest note in chords.
