[@marianlevy9232]

What a fabulous lesson .. breaking the song down to its harmonic ‘ skeleton’ really helps open up some new possibilities ( and makes transposing much easier because you know where you’re headed) Thanks so much, Peter !! ❤🎹

[@WillsJazzLoft]

Over the years, I've learned enough about different chord qualities to 'fake it till I make it'. I can make a standard like All The Things You Are sound reasonably pretty. But, there's always been part of me that really has wanted to figure out how to really ' play '. I think that this helps

[@gordonkennygordon]

Same here! I can play wallpaper for a wedding reception just fine, but I'm pushing 60 and still reaching for that next level of, like you say, really playing. Peter has this amazing combination of effortless spontaneity and deep thought that makes him a great teacher. I'm only ten minutes in to this video, but it feels like he's showing us a path I can't wait to follow. better put this on repeat :) Peace!

[@WillsJazzLoft]

@@gordonkennygordon Spontaneity is definitely a biggie. After all doing the same thing repeatedly while expecting a different result is defined as insanity. That's likely the reason that jazz musicians are perhaps some of the most sane individuals that one might find 😁🤣😂 They're always looking for fresh ways to express the same idea musically. Staying fresh in the middle of a performance is the challenge

Just came from a summer jazz workshop and we did All the things you are extensively - here is a funny reharm. 1st chord hold the bass (F) and melody (Ab) and realize the inner voices (C, G, Ab, Bb, Eb for example). Now slide the inner voices up a half-tone, leave the bass and melody the same. Tell me what you think. :)

Brilliant lesson, loved it. Listening to how crisp every note Peter plays and the emphasis and accent on specific tones blows me away. Something lacking in my own finger work I’m trying to rectify. Finding new lines and how to approach those reference points.

[@vinnyno.1]

Good day Peter!!!!! Hello from Alberta, Canada!!!!

[@PabloVestory]

Great class as always, thank you so much! I am very sceptic too about that said that Sonny Rollins sometimes wrote his solos beforehand. Maybe some kind of exercise as Peter well said or arrangement to play that day or something... or plain misinformation, we would need incontrovertible proof, two records with the same "improvised" solo. A guy capable of, among many other incredible things, trading fours with the drummer for more than half one our, never boring nor repetitive, doesn't need that at all, him specially!

[@luoshengying]

[@vozvibrante]

Seeing your hands playing this tune made me realize this melody stays a third from the bass pretty much the whole song. The melody IS the shell!

[@danisbegovic9409]

I’m a bit confused… 😅 So, in the first part of the lesson (before mentioning shells), Mr. Martin is saying I should think about each melody note’s place in the diatonic scale? As in, whether it is a chord tone or resolves to one, or maybe some line clichés/enclosures involving the note? If someone who “got” the lesson could give a summarised version of his points, I would be so grateful because this doesn’t really sound “beginner” to me 😭

[@reddeckelman1802]

The first 5 chords are all modes of the A Flat Major scale. The notes of each chord's scale are the same as A Flat Major, just starting on different points in the scale. F Minor is the 6th step, B Flat Minor the 2nd, E Flat 7th is the 5th, A Flat is the 1 or 1st step, D flat Major the 4th. By knowing they're all from the A Flat Major scale, you don't have to think of a different scale on every chord.

It's a downfall of (jazz) teaching to endlessly harp on the same very simple rudiment, and then leap to showing off an incomprehensibly advanced flurry. What is needed is the steps between the two. I have good aural and theory skills but I don't understand how to come out with improvisation lines like 9:20 or 18:22.

[@chrismowag6919]

You are aware that 9:20 is the „very simple rudiment“ he is preaching? Maybe you should double down on discovering the basic major scale (I know I should!)

[@bassplayerbyrne]

theres also something to be said for, simply transcribing the line that you like! (take it through all 12 keys & you're good to go😉)
