Elton John’s piano style is legendary—instantly recognizable and full of energy. From unforgettable melodies to his unique chord grounding, he’s created a sound like no other. I’ve been a fan since seeing him live at 14, and in this video, I’m excited to share one of his signature moves: the ‘Elton John Power Plagal.’ You’ll learn to use this powerful chord trick to add depth to your playing and practice it in every key, bringing that classic Elton feel to your music.
