John Tesh Creates On Line Music Course

Aging With Grace 55+

John Tesh is internationally recognized for his diverse talents as a journalist, composer, broadcaster, concert pianist, and author. His online course, the John Tesh Piano Method, available at Tesh.com, was developed after surveying his nearly 2 million social media followers. One of the most requested topics was advice on how to improve memory.

A recent study published by the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry suggests that playing a musical instrument can help keep the brain healthy in old age, improving memory and the ability to solve complex tasks, particularly for those with dementia. The study’s authors recommend incorporating music playing into a lifestyle approach to maintaining brain health.

Earlier this year, the Emmy Award-winning musician launched his online course, which teaches anyone how to play the piano without reading sheet music or learning complex music theory. Tesh claims that, using Neuroscience techniques, anyone can learn to play the piano in just three days. His method is based on his decades of experience as a multi-million-selling music artist and composer, and the advice he has shared on his self-help daily radio show, which is broadcast on more than 350 stations.

In a candid interview, Tesh also discusses highlights from his inspirational memoir, Relentless: Unleashing a Life of Purpose, Grit, and Faith. The candid memoir covers his recovery from “serious, stage3-plus” cancer diagnosis, key moments from his extensive broadcasting career at CBS and NBC, and his ten years as co-host of "Entertainment Tonight." Throughout his career, Tesh has earned three gold albums and six Emmys for his best selling albums and singles.
