N-I-I-I-I-C-E! KH counts us down into another new swingin' year! 💓🥂

Happy New Year, Kent.

You brought christmas home again, thank you Kent

For Volume III you can count on me too, Kent! All the best for 2025

Beautiful music ! What especially impresses me is his choice of melodies: all are inspiring and filled with beauty ! And then thank you for giving away your love of this music and your amazing knowledge ! I'm not a pianist, but a sax player and know also singer, but I enjoy it all the same. Gerard "Doudou"Gouirand

Thanks Kent! Been subscribed for years. Here’s to many more

STRONGLY RECOMMEND. I’ve been using Kent’s books and they are just amazing! If you’re a beginner, just start here and it will save you years of going through other far-less-effective books. If you’re intermediate or advanced, it is very to-the-point to become a good (jazz) musician. Very well thought through by a great teacher. Also great together with the many videos. Worth every penny in gold 🏆

Hi, Kent! Let me ask you, is it possible at the moment to get the appendix for free if I have already bought the volumes but not the appendix? The Volumes are great, I am actively and happily studying from them. Thank you for your hard work.

Superb! Thank you! ❤❤

Are you working on a Vol III ?

Thank you, Kent.

A SUBSCRIBER'S BOOK ENDORSEMENT - "Mootrevo" just wanted to do a shout-out for your book; People, I’ve been using Kent’s book every day for over a year, and it’s a work of art. If you like Kent’s playing and the way he explains jazz and music harmony, and the songs he chooses as examples... then RUN, don’t walk to Kent’s website and get this book. He IS far too modest about this amazing jazz workbook he has created. It is simply the best I have ever used, and I’ve tried a lot of them. It has improved my playing and understanding of jazz theory tremendously. I can’t imagine any student of jazz piano and/or jazz harmonic theory not liking this book. It’s simply that good. It’s fun. It’s straight forward. And unlike so many other jazz books, it’s not boring!!

Merry Christmas 🎁 🎵🎶

Great arrangement Ken, love it. Merry Christmas to you and yours and keep them coming.

Merry Christmas!! Great tutorial!!

Hi Kent, Thank you for this lovely arrangement - you always have such good taste - and for the really great explanation too! Merry Christmas to you, Herbie & all the family !!

Thanks Kent. Merry Christmas for you and you family ❤

Great performance, Kent! That was such a classic solo and tone that you created, I felt like I had just snuck into a major concert venue. The band sounded great too. Can you tell us where you get your backing tracks? And do you create any that your disciples can practice with? Merry Christmas to you, you Jazz Guru! 🧡🎹🥁🎺😎

Nice version! I’ve learned so much from you these past years.

A second dose of Xmas Jazz!! We are truly blessed. Modulation was sweet, I preferred it to the half-step mod. Some tasty improv, will certainly watching / listening it over a gazillion times! Seasons Greetings Mr H.

Merry Christmas, Kent!

Man that was terrific!

Awsome as usual. Merry Christmas KH.

Merry Christmas ❤❤

Beautiful arrangement! Thank you !

Merry Christmas to the great KH, the first jazz tutor I found on YT many years ago

🌲🎵🎶🎹🎄Very sweetly swingin', Santa KH! Hope your holidays are merry and bright! 🎄💕 XO - M

Thank you Kent

Hi Kent - it's no exaggeration to say that you have inspired me to finally dig in an do this properly!! I self-taught myself some limited pieces & improv's when I was 14 (no KZbin gurus then!). I always stumbled at the learning the techniques bit. Then a career in IT inconveniently got in the way for over 30 years!! Your book and the video set you have so kindly put together take away the last excuses I had .... my new piano has just arrived ... my order for your book is coming ... I can do this!!! Thanks so much for such an amazing set of outputs, and for your relentless hard work - it is so appreciated. Best wishes from a Brit who loves jazz and blues!

I work some of these out and if I dont use them I forgot but try to keep it simple. Like for example harm min can be the C with just the 5 sharp or mel b3. Now I dont recall what alterations happen to the C when the A becomes major with a flat 3. I would have to figure it out again.

Perfect, I am at this point in the book. Just finished Ain't Misbehavin. Stride was always a challenge for me but I got it sounding good, lotta fun.

Where most people spend 4 minutes to copy a X-mas meme to send to their friends, Keith makes a 14 minute video for us + whatever time it took him to prepare. Best X-mas present of the year. Thank you very much Kent and hope to see you around next year🥂

Incredible incredible performance Kent, your playing is just phenomenal

This is absolutely next level. It'll take me 95 years to learn half of what Kent knows. Nice!

Thanks for your philosophy

Thanks Kent, I have the download and can play it without much difficulty. Will practice it some more the next few days along with some other Christmas music and play in house Christmas Day for a small group of dinner guests! Thanks for all you do, I follow your channel, work on what’s within reach, and have weekly lessons with a good instructor. Happy Holidays!

Awesome video, opened up so much for me. Now off to watch Part 2 and the more recent 251 video.

Wow!-- those pedal tones and subtle early exposition, and then the modulation taking it on a more "earthy" jazz-bluesy ride (as you explain). This melody deserved a jazz reharmonization & this is just a really rewarding experience. Thanks Kent for the great present & Merry Christmas!

Thank you for your amazing and generous contribution in jazz education. All my best
