A Simple Chord Trick To Make You Sound Like A Pro

[@dylaneverhartmusic]

Damn this sounds fly but also so simple. I've been doing plenty of passing from a semitone above, but it sounds so much more grounded when you approach from above AND below

[@soupeauchoux9340]

I dreamed to learn how to play the piano, i'm a music producer and i've always been thinking about it but never had enough self-confidence i guess.. Thank to you guys i'm now starting to learn by myself and its a daydream. Piano is pure beauty and love. Peace

[@thetruth74374]

Hey Simon! I want to say a big thank you for this channel and all of the videos!

[@Piano_Pig]

You’re welcome! 😁🙏

[@VincentBuonora]

Your two handed chords are heavenly sounds.

[@qiguaimusic]

Feel like you've encapsulated Henry Wu's entire career in a few minutes, sounds like so much of the Yussef kamaal approach patterns. Beautiful trick

[@shannonpickens7695]

Yes. Smooootttthhhh 😎 Christmas holidays are for practicing

[@Piano_Pig]

They certainly are! 💪

[@fabiancosster2992]

You are a really an amazing teacher god bless you forever

[@seanonel]

GOLD!! Thanks mate.

[@Paul-pw8fz]

Hey with ChatGPT I've asked it to write a jazz chord progression with extensions may be a fun video. I also then asked it to write a melody. which it did. Conversation write a jazz chord progression in Bb that has a 2 A sections and 1 B section, the chords must use extensions, each section must have 10 unique chords next conversation write a melody for the previous progression

[@russellphillips4862]

Thanks mate for sharing lessons and styles. It's been interesting to watch your earlier stuff to now to see how much more confidently you come across speaking on camera.

[@Piano_Pig]

Thanks man! I’ve certainly grown over the years!

[@GT300KR]

Love this tips, useful and really good. Please do more improvisation videos over chords. Thanks!

[@Antavoine]

Wow that sounds so good man... a BIG thanks for all your videos Simon :)

[@Piano_Pig]

No worries! Thank YOU for watching them 😁🙏

[@brendaninglis_333]

You’re the man Simon!

[@saadiolegato7270]

You are god sent! Thank you mate! 😉

[@goncalodiasmusic]

Could you go deeper into the runs / variations on the voicings you do in this video? I like the approach concept but I feel the extra stuff you do is what really makes it shine.

[@Piano_Pig]

This video was just about that chromatic enclosure concept, but check out this video for tips on those other bits I was playing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZerf6uIlqZ0qZo

[@StratosFair]

I get extremely inspired by your videos Simon, thanks for sharing your knowledge with us 🙏🏾

[@robertmayhew98]

Hi Simon, thank you once again very much for an excellent tutorial.

[@korea_walkers]

It really sounds like pro and quite easy to use :) Thanks a lot ♡~

[@HeavenlyBridegroomMusic]

ok Simon! This sounds so very good!!!!

[@eatcoffee1126]

DAYUM, this is sick. I will definitely be using this alot. Landing on a minor chord sounds funky as well

[@eatcoffee1126]

Dude this sounds so sick. Going from Eb to Ab to Bb, and adding some 2-5-1.

[@mrfudd13]

Classic enclosure sequence.

[@Rain-ec4jj]

Can you show me how to play melodies while playing big chords like the major9, 11th, major7 and etc?

[@nillybrook2715]

Great tip, first video I've seen and I'm keen to see more. Have you got any good backing track links?

[@RobertLeva]

you rock thanks!

[@mariechow107]

Easy to understand and really sounds nice!!!!

[@vansullivan236]

Always great, thanks!

[@danceaholic90]

FIRE!!! Loved this man, thank you so much

[@Piano_Pig]

Thanks man! 🙏

[@maxwellkrah4213]

Hi Simon! What's the process in joining your school, need a private lesson

[@TheBawss90]

Thanks for this trick!

[@Piano_Pig]

You’re welcome!

[@luatsimanullang6477]

Thanks a lot for your video sir 🔥

[@IlGODLYII]

Hey it sounds really jazzy and nice, might use it for some of my beats, but how is it minors? I just learned chords minor and major today? I dont get it, can someone explain to me please? I learned that major go 3-2 and minors go 2-3

[@doorwaysintomusic]

lovely -- thank you!

[@macbrownie7390]

i dont usually comment but im watching your content since a long time and you’re always killing it !!

[@Piano_Pig]

Thanks Mac, I appreciate that! 🙏

[@plabonbose3531]

[@nicholasboucher4071]

Super tasty. Thanks.

[@joshbottz]

Sounds a lot like Rob Araujo. Nice! I dig it.

[@Piano_Pig]

Rob’s the man!

[@nanayuniarti6901]

Hello brother i am from Indonesia 🇮🇩

[@alamolalamol9426]

Another great video - thanks...

[@Piano_Pig]

My pleasure!

[@sonycroquet]

hello simon in this video you say to use 3 5 7 9 and after use 1/2 tone up and down to arrive to Cm7 and the same with Fm7 but in the minute 3.19 you play 7 9 3 5 9 11 why ?I´´m in a mess.

[@flavyantonio8958]

It's cool

[@darryldillard880]

I really enjoy your videos, keep up the good work!!🎹🎶🎼

[@Piano_Pig]

Thanks Darryl! 🙏

[@psk1461]

Simon!!! Can I adopt you?

[@w.terrace5394]

I came upon some famous jazz music. I tried to make out the minor chords, voicing in the faded background with my untrained senses. But, the main instruments were trumpet, saxophone, etc. So, even they're nice pieces, unfortunately the voicing , beautiful chords stay in the background. I happened to find out because of your videos.

[@howardron543]

Do u have a compilation or playlist of ur own music.. Or jam sesions... Even if short like this one... I would love to have it play as soon as i wakeup to be in a good mood right away

[@Piano_Pig]

Check out my insta page, I always post beats and improv stuff: instagram.com/piano_pig/

[@kabelomkhabela4766]

Great video as usual🔥 Quick question, aren’t these Cm7/9 and Fm7/9 though? 1:38

[@Piano_Pig]

Yes they are! We tend to just label things as 7th chords in jazz, even though we normally add more extensions!

[@kabelomkhabela4766]

@@Piano_Pig Ahhh I see. I guess it would make things simpler. Thanks

[@alexpianoplayer15]

Is having an absolute pitch a must for a good jazz musician?

[@eatcoffee1126]

I mean it helps, but no not really.

[@Piano_Pig]

Absolutely not! It’s all about relative pitch, which comes with practice. Having perfect pitch is irrelevant

[@turk3790]

How is the first chord a C Minor?

[@김정섭-e9z]

examples are too fire 🥵🥵

[@Piano_Pig]

Thanks man!

[@OutNaboutwithSwiift]

Lookin handsome with the short hair Simon👌🏻

[@OutNaboutwithSwiift]

So handsome in fact

[@mashudumashao1600]

"Ngulube" that's pic in my language Zulu... I miss this channel bro

[@Piano_Pig]

No need to miss the channel, I’m out here posting videos on the reg! 😁

[@DojoOfCool]

As a fan of just about anything chromatic I like this example and think I have something else to add to it so off for my piano now. I love thr EP sounds you get.

[@w.terrace5394]

I think people can be creative. There are just a few rules to follow. If I play the wrong notes, most listeners won't be able to tell anyway.

[@anthonymartin8192]

1:19

[@beatz04]

What's the Wurli plugin used in the video ?

[@Piano_Pig]

I’m using Keyscape 🙂

[@piano_tutors_online]

Finally reduced your hair. 😊😊😊🎹

[@sonicboomer8617]

Cm7 doesn't have an A note in it and Fm7 doesn't have a Bb note. So what are these chords? This video is very confusing - and I've been playng keyboards for over 60 years.

[@dabongz7691]

I have 1 year learning the piano but l still don't know anything

[@sonycroquet]

the chords name shoud not be Cm9 and Fm9

[@toronado455]

🎼🎶🎵🆗🆒✅

[@chrishelbling3879]

You have a D in your Cm7, making it Cm9. Likewise, your Fm7 has a G, for Fm9. Why are you lying in this video; asking for a friend?

[@TheBionemesis]

Nice stuff, but you did way more stuff that weren't explained like those voicing @2:34 that in fact sounded very good
