This is my #1 favorite technique. When I learned this technique, it went from people saying “Oh, you can play piano” to “WOW, You really good at piano!”. Its just one of those techniques that looks epic.
But it's really not as hard as it looks, as long as you practice it correctly. The first two videos are on the basic sweep, the form, and the practice strategies. Then the final video is on Advanced Sweeping. Basically how to add on to your Basic Sweep to make it even more epic. But you'll see what I mean.

The Basic Sweep Part 2
Advanced Arpeggio Sweeping
Key points from the lesson:
1. Learn the basic Arpeggio Sweep before you move on to the Advanced Arpeggio Sweeps.
2. Arpeggio Sweeps are great for intros, transitions, and outros. They're a little tougher to put in when you only have a little space (because they take both your left and right hand), but it can be done with practice.
3. Once you've learned the basic sweep, try making up your own Advanced Sweep by “Lego Blocking” it together.
4. As always, focus on using correct form and the Accelerated Learning Techniques.
