6 Sick Modern Blues Licks For Jazz Piano

[@plouf1969]

It's amazing to play that well when the piano is behind your back!

[@davebowman6497]

Good one! Not all jokes last for 8 minutes and 35 seconds 😊

[@davidwhite2949]

I feel that knowing the blues is a huge step toward learning jazz. Awesome, thanks Noah!

[@NoahKellman]

You're welcome, David! It's certainly an important piece of jazz history, and I think the 12-bar blues can serve as an incredible canvas to work on all different eras of jazz, and many different styles of improvisation.

[@tomgiles1484]

Jazz comes from the blues, and the two are inseparable.

[@herrbonk3635]

@@tomgiles1484 Blues is one ingredient. European classical music, French cabare-variete music, gypsy music, and German marches were other ingredients in early jazz.

[@jimsskot1]

Thats why We need more blues lessons .🎉🎉🎉

[@findus8269]

Finally, someone shows the proper fingering as well! Thanks a bunch!

[@bronxkies]

This is it!! Wow! As soon as the video started I was like, that’s what I was looking for. I’ve been trying to frame my view to go from “I always wanted to learn how to…” to “how do I play…”. This helps to shift towards action and leads with curiosity rather just staying in fantasy of “I’ve always wanted to”. Thanks for this, Noah!

[@NoahKellman]

That's a great mentality shift! Love it. So glad you found the video helpful!

[@bronxkies]

@@NoahKellman thanks, bud!!

[@sls554]

Noah Yes, Yes I fell all of that BLUES AND JAZZ; IT REALLY PICKED ME UP.

[@eluherlu]

Everytime I got exhausted from modern music, blues is my medicine

[@theofficialdowbrain]

These are straight piano cheat codes! So great! Thanks, Noah!

[@NoahKellman]

Glad you're enjoying them! Totally, that's the goal :) want to provide the quickest and most efficient way to implement new material into your playing.

[@ryankcmusic5570]

I loved this lesson. The licks are simple enough to add into my playing straight away. And they sound way hip.. awesome stuff. Thanks for the content.

[@jimsskot1]

More blues on this Channel. Some nasty 12 bar blues and slow blues. Blues is everything .🎉🎉🎉

[@sls554]

You are really talking now those Licks are saying a lot great job!!!!!

[@charlesmarshall2614]

Thank you for the tons of great info here, I love blues piano and am learning. You just gave me hours more of joyful practice ahead. Also it’s just entertaining to watch you play these so well. Thanks again!

[@chelseacollins3782]

Noah, you help my songwriting and playing so much. I feel like i just had one of those galaxy brain moments when you said to keep the pinky where it’s at for messing around with blues riffs 🤯

[@NoahKellman]

Hey Chelsea, so glad to hear that! Thanks for commenting and supporting and keep up the good work!

[@thereallightwarrior906]

Those are excellent riffs I eared out years ago, and they are very useful, and Noel does a GREAT job explaining how to play them. He should then add the left hand voicing comp, and tying the licks together in longer phrases. Then, show variations in context, and how to take the same idea, playing “geometrically”, to extend the harmonic ‘alphabet’ into altered scale/chord phrases, such as the flat & sharp 9, etc.

[@davidecorvi8910]

Thank you!

[@JaguerRhye]

Excellent lesson! Thank you!

[@NCMusic38]

Love the way you play. Thank you

Thanks, Jason. Will definitely keep that in mind :) thanks for the comment!

You got some crazy skills. Enjoyed the tutorial.

[@NoahKellman]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@tamistone2632]

Nice!

[@TheChordgordon]

Thank you very much for your explanations! If I might add something to the technique you're using in this video: one could also add the b note to the f minor pentatonic scale, making it an f minor blues scale. It adds a bit more blues/jazz feeling to the improvisation.

[@sls554]

NOW YOY ARE TALKING !!!!!!!!!!

[@fadrian98]

Woahh thank you for these!

[@NoahKellman]

You're welcome, Adrian!

[@CoderCoronet]

Nice stuff! I would love to see you breaking down the piano solo by Ming Freeman on the Dance With a Stranger song.

[@MusicForRelaxing]

can you demonstrate this in the context of playing the 12 bar blues

[@NoahKellman]

Good thought! Will keep this in mind for future vids. Thanks for the comment!

J’adore merci please how to train working Noah these licks ? Slowly with the metronome first and increasing speed yes ?

[@jeffjohnson7381]

Noah my name is Grant and I’ve come across your lessons and definitely will be tuning into them as often as possible…would there be a way you could demonstrate some Slow Blues Rhythms with Just a left hand chord with right hand improvising with licks and runs…haven’t seen any other teacher yet that has demonstrated this type of playing….Please respond to this when you get a chance…Thanks so much and look forward to seeing your lessons in this regard..❤🎹

Yeah

[@aapris1986]

Cool lickes! And thank you for such a detailed explanation! I'm curious to know - how you find which note sequences (right-hand) sound "bluesy" and which not? Can you share any rules or patterns or any reference to read about?

[@Jiveness]

all in the ear! I would look up bebop and pentatonic scales

[@2OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO]

damnnn,, you are really good :)

[@lovelee3616]

wonderful~~!! I'm really moving. would you mind if i ask how to shoot the picture like you?(piano, score) can i learn on line?

[@antoineoscar]

Hey, it would be nice if you did courses exclusively on licks (just showing them with a pdf attached), like weissguitar has done with "51 galactic jazz licks" but for piano ! :)

[@Jack-fs2im]

I did enjoy it and practising them.thanx sadly I am only able to practice in short 20min periods so slowly absorb stuff.If I practice for longer I lose the feel of new stuff.Silly me.thanx again

@@NoahKellman thanks Noah. Hey I ended up transcribing the introduction to the video as a challenge. Not sure why I did that, but glad I did as it got me t internalize the principle and to discover interesting voicings particularly the sense of movement from F#11 to F#5b9 Thanks again.🙏

[@NoahKellman]

@@alonshimonshaikaspi5956 That's awesome, Alon! Great job. Yeah, at the very least I would imagine it provided some good context.

[@alonshimonshaikaspi5956]

@@NoahKellman yeah, grouping it into bars was a little tricky because of the rubato + my limited blues structure knowledge, but it helps checking myself when practicing in other keys

Keren nh bro

[@sergei4517]

Thanks for this video....Is it relevant to try to work these licks in all keys...or it is applicable for F only? I mean can an excellent pianist as you are play these in all keys?

Lick #1 is straight out of Bobby Timmons’ solo on Moanin’.

Cool I haven't heard that in years! Gotta listen to it again. Pretty sure I've hard Oscar do similar licks too.

Actually simpler than it sounds! It’s basically a G Maj arpeggio over F7(#11)

Like Noah said G major over F7. Take this sound further with different upper structure triads.
