Amazing how much work Oliver puts into his videos, especially organising every scale so perfectly. Thank you so much! You should teach at a university!

I believe there's a mistake in the formula of family 6. It shouldn't say W-H-W-H-W-H-W-H (as in whole-half-whole-half-etc.), but instead W-W-W-W-W-W-W (only wholes), otherwise it is identical to the diminished or family 5 on the chart, which alternates between whole and half steps.

A warm cheers! from New Zealand.

i love your explanation... easy to practice

How come I feel like watching The Bridgerton and Lady Whistledown :). Excellent explanation, so grateful I found your channel.

Oliver !! Yo so cool 😎

Can anyone find a better method of teaching out there? And as smooth and easy? Very gifted and talented teacher.

Joe Henderson In and Out

Fantastic teacher. Wonderful style - system of thinking -approach.

Thank you so much

Thanks so much!!!

I don't think my life is going to be long enough to learn all of that 😢

¡Gracias!

Amazing sir 😊

50 years ago when I was a twenty year old budding jazz pianist, I ran into one of the top players in Buffalo. He said he was so used to playing complex clusters of dissonant chords and odd scales, that they no longer sound dissonant after a while and just more interesting and cool. At 69 years old now, I understand what he meant.

Amazing

On the right hand what scales are you playing? Seems like right hand is playing scale based notes

Even atonal, free jazz is ordered and structured. And most jazz has a tonal center. People always structure their stuff, even if it's to improvise within that structure.

Fantastic applause o

Yeah Come Back 👏

You are a great musician thanks for sharing this information in such a simple way awesome

So unfair! I have heard these sounds in Classical music - why not JAZZ????? 😅

At 2:25 timestamp there is C Ma7 9 notation. Why not just writing C Ma9? Cause 9th chord already includes the 7th note, no?

I couldn't avoid watching AVOID AVOIDING THE AVOID NOTES

It might be the most misinterpreted concept in music that finally, a teacher talks about. That's not all because we are talking about the Best music teacher out there. Thanks 🙏 Oliver.

Although i am not a player, i compose and your channel always gives very good insights, thank you. I always like to be mindful where the tritones are in any mode or chord that i am writing, not to avoid them, but to know when to use them or not, in the proper moments when i want the contrast, not acidentally in random fashion. I believe this is the real intention behind such "rules", except people distort it eventually and turn a "use it conscientiously" into a "dont use, its bad". Maybe because it is easier to understand and removes need to think and distinguish when it is desirable or undesirable. Same as patallel 5ths, it thins up the voicing, do not use it. Yes it does, but if i want to make the texture thinner in a moment, also for contrast and impact when it widens again, then it is desirable at that specific moment. Good to see teachers like you helping people out of the musical matrix.

Thank you, Very calming video! Aren't all 13th chords inversions of each other since you play all 7 notes? And in the natural major scale you can order all the notes in fifths. What makes the Dorian one stable compared to the other modes? Just the order of notes?

this is asmr

Bravo Monsieur, votre pédagogie est toujours aussi fascinante et ô combien enrichissante ! Bonne continuation à vous Bravo Sir, your teaching is always as fascinating and oh so enriching! All the best

This is incredibly enlightening. I adore your approach to music, andbfind your insights invaluable, and make me really think about things. 🙏

you hit multiple times notes you're supposed to avoid wtf ?????

When I impovise and happen to play a note that sounds dissonant, I often stay at it and try to find follow-up notes that make that dissonant note fit into the musical flow. This often helps me break out of boring patterns to find new, fresh components in my music.

Another great jazz piano lesson. Best regards from Panama 🇵🇦

Great as usual!

Been 5 years I've been subscribed to you, always learning music theory and jazz through you. For so, thank you newjazz

I'm the first , give me likes

God bless you, my friend!

Hands of Beauty‼️

For the c myxolydian, can I play the the combined scale of the c major pentatonic, g minor pentatonic, and the d minor pentatonic?

oh my god. You make it so so easy without all the theory. "Just Play" is what I had been looking for. Thanks a mil.

The One & Only!!!

Brilliant, awesome!!

thank you so much, It has just blown my mind. Really. lovely and treasured information.

Are you playing the a minor pentatonic on the G7? I thought that was aeolian, not myxolydian.

This is simply God sent. Thank you New Jazz.

What do you mean by move by a 5ht, and how are you doing counter movement ?

I've been playing the piano for a little over seven months and I am grateful for people like you. I went from knowing absolutely nothing to getting around music sheets and improvising some messy melodies. Though I do feel a bit stuck right now, guess I clung to much, I'll give a few days and let it breathe, then come back.

You are the best jazz piano teacher that I come accross youtube. When I become a great jazz player someday I will tell them Oliver Prehn taught me

Not to sound weird or creepy but your voice is incredibly soothing.
