Finally someone's calling out Big Harma. This video will get demonetized, but hopefully it won't be removed by youtube.

[@granddaddy_funk]

Open studio will get disappeared if they're not careful.

[@l.w.paradis2108]

Why? This is tongue-in-cheek pro-Pfizer.

[@sweettee1931]

I wish they had virtual piano!

[@nakoskyranos4080]

The comedy in these is underated. opening with "wake up shheple" is hilarious 😂

[@Sphereal]

Adam is one of the best teachers I have seen here on YT. So knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time.

[@damoncombs4959]

I completely agree, one of the best. I'm so glad I found the channel, and I'm a member of open studio jazz.

[@PrimeTime345]

The most relevant jazz theory video of our time

[@TheBanjoBeatle]

Congrats on the format. Great mix of theory and ear training. I hereby nominate you to a KZbin piano teaching grammy.

[@AlexaMorales]

Love how you kept the humor going at the end 19:37 I was 😂. Brilliant combo of ear training with theory too!!!! And the Mu chord sounds SOOOOO hip 🎉

[@peterisancverins]

The intro is just amazing. The humour, the music with the voiceover, the transitions. Such a great mood. Perfectly done. #DONTTRUSTHARMA

[@daneharter9873]

The title got me to watch this video

[@kenzuercher7497]

I follow all of your lessons here and as a guitarist, this really makes sense and helps us to "fill in" between all of the published chords when playing solo or accompanying a singer! Thank you once again!

[@VALINOR24]

Sweet. I'm just sad you left out the secondary diminished chords (half-dim7, dim7, dim maj7). You can also approach a diatonic chord with an altered dominant from a half-step below which is prevalent in gospel music. Beautiful lesson.

[@rgraham9792]

Warning! Juicy transition chords may cause tingling of skin and spine, breathlessness, overwhelming euphoria, stank face, and excessive lacrimation

[@maciek_d]

Why isn’t there a jazz stank face emoji yet?

[@asukalangleysoryu6695]

@@maciek_d 😩

[@Qaptyl]

can be solved with some safe and effective basic major triads, and diatonic chords with no transitions.

[@seanonel]

Love this. I'm self taught (many hours a day trying to figure things out) and this is so much in line with what I'm teaching myself right now. Thank you.

[@SilverTheFlame]

Adam I literally love you for this video. I absolutely LOVE the mix of theoretical instruction and ear training in context. Perfect video and introduced me to a new concept (the beautiful Mu chord!). Please do more of this kind of interactive stuff

[@LennyPrice]

Your video confirms that combining music theory study with ear training is powerful! Brilliant! 🎹

[@chambre466]

oh man glad to see you again. happy belated new year as I didn't t get the chance. Love you man, keep on with all the good work

[@borispetkov8580]

One of the best harmony videos in KZbin at all. Really, really good job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@paulwatsonguitar]

Flipping love this! Great examples to work with. Loving your channel, such awesome content 👏 👌

[@dahlavibez5726]

I love this concept so much. Im actually improving my melodica playing through just learning piano from you bro it's really fun and personal you way of teaching and it's free as

[@tatianakomissarova1404]

Simple, clear, useful, beautiful and fun. Thank you so much!

[@shanroberts1]

Beautifully and humorously explained. Well delivered. Thanks so much!

[@needlessnoise]

hilarious title and intro already, excited to get into these chords

[@DullDishwater]

One of your most useful and best videos!

[@jakejakejak]

I love this channel. Unrivaled content.

[@fabiancosster8848]

man you are changing my life with these lessons fro example the lessons about big harma hates these chords the sec dominants and tritone substitution these kinds of chords i had a problem to figure out before thank you one more time i will be open for more of these kinds of lessons

[@miguelescalera626]

Thanks for sharing 🎹 🎶, appreciate the theory lesson. Along with the ear training. Going to to try this next time I am practicing..

[@the-deagledude]

THIS! is so gold. Thank you Adam

[@danielorts1512]

Hilarious. And great content! I'd add approaching any majors with a 7#9 a half step below, it's just something I became addicted to. Thanks as always!

[@Bashanvibe]

A lot of these moves I been using most of my 20 plus years of playing!!! The way this is being taught i can intentionally have better placement!!!

[@maciek_d]

Adam and the open studio crew just keep getting better! This is golden

[@gr8tbigtreehugger]

Super helpful video! Many thanks!

[@saxysen]

Hell of an intro😂! Super creative! Bravo 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

[@malcolmzackery3099]

Very important stuff to know Adam! Well taught as usual!

[@Reverdoc]

WOW.... that was great and so instructive. What a sound !!!.Thank you for sharing this... It's really making me a better pianist.

[@jdiaz4877]

Really awesome tutorial. Well done man! 👍

[@sandalero]

in gospel they sometimes do C D7 Gm .. which is ECEG F#CEbF#A to Gm .. OR THEY DO : EDG#CEG F#EBbDF#A to GDABbCFA which is a fancy 451

[@andress4780]

someone needed to come out and say it

[@HenryNewbury]

These videos are such a joy, thank you ☺️❤️🎹

[@marlablow116]

Love the ear training piece! I was wrong on most of them, points to more time I need to spend on ear work!

[@chambre466]

so inspirational, thanks again man

[@CWBella]

This is great! Especially like the examples and touch of ear training.

[@FichteConcerthall]

Awesome tutorial. Thanks and greetings from Berlin!

[@robbyr9286]

Awesome content. Big Harma has lost control of the narrative thanks to brave people like you sharing your wisdom! The Mu chord in particular is a gem- not a super uncommon chord to me but the application/ context is new to me. Thank you.

[@maciek_d]

Same

[@pichipachu]

The open studio comedy team at it again!!

[@penguindrum264]

I forgot about the Mu chord. Thank you for bringing it up in this video.

[@raphaelbarry2903]

This is awesome! Moo zart would be delighted with this progression:)

[@robertomui333]

So great ! Thx so much ! 🙂

[@nunyabidnez7857]

Big Harma... Love it!

[@federicomelo1853]

If one can't explain something in a simple way, you don't know it well enough. Adam really does.

[@altrogeruvah]

This cause is 10/10 worth going to jail for

[@Don2Rich]

Yeah man! That was beautiful. I was hip to the subs except for that Mu chord, but my voicings don't sound like yours.I've got work to do, thanks.

[@gregduhon5510]

Good opening. 👍

[@brendaboykin3281]

Great one, mate. You're COOL!!!!🌹😎🌹Great title,great spoof intro. YOU BE KA-RAZY 😎

[@Tartw]

Master teacher!! Thank you.

[@AlexVonCrank]

Best teacher I never had!

[@BrianTCollins]

Brilliant!

[@neilsaunders6009]

Satire used to be directed against the powerful, but what do I know? I'm just a crazy conspiracy theorist. Excellent chords, though!

[@colorfulwater5070]

Beautiful

[@patzimmusic]

This is hilarious! And informative

[@bq4454]

I guess the E mu chord is only found in Australia.

[@jegielattega]

Thank you,thank you,thank you. Best teacher ever!❤

[@rogerball6265]

Love the simplicity of this

[@dmitriiturchenkov3075]

Great. Thanks so much)

[@bigpeej92]

Great guys thank you!!

[@markbra]

Thank you in perpetuity throughout the universe.

[@andymiless]

Adam thank you very much for your videos... grettings since San luis Potosi Mexico ( St. Louis Blues xd)

[@kimbullard770]

You just got me. I’m now a forever fan.

[@marcomoraschi3537]

I cast a bad spell on Big harma!!! COURSED

[@akoolstik]

great leesson ! thank you!

[@New_in_jazz]

Thank you very much Adam :)

[@izlo7377]

Adam, you're the man, man!

[@ChipTheMusicMan]

Big Harma actively suppresses these transition chords...like they want us to forget they even exist...but we WILL NOT comply! Yo, Big Harma - clean up on aisle 5 cause things just got...JUICY!

[@corradolentinello6297]

Bellissima lezione Grazie mille Ciao dall'Italia.

[@TheMrAllesio]

thank you adam

[@tutempoacademiamusical]

Adam, you are funny!!! Loved the video!

[@AaronLS.]

This is the way. Humor, clear theory, consistency of examples (1-4), song examples (Stevie Wonder), exercises, and ways to integrate it. I'm a guitar player and found this so useful.

[@pilcaroo]

That Ab7 to Gm7 voicing on 9:48 is wide! Can't really play that with my left hand. Reminded me of Rachmaninoff, mentioned earlier in the video... And that Mu chord, what a wonderful, fresh sound!

[@pichipachu]

And yes, a good time was actually had by all! Thank you!

[@mr7clay]

I think the mu chromatic approach sounds modern because the added 2 is often not in the traditional scale you'd use with a secondary dominant. Like with C - A/C# - Dm you'd most likely use D *harmonic minor* (with Bb) during the A. But Aadd2/C# has *B natural*. (Although classical has the D melodic minor scale containing B, in practice a classical piece would never _sustain B_ over an A chord in D minor.)

[@griffinwojtowicz9836]

this is brilliant

[@maestro2033]

Loved this lesson. Take that big harma

[@Nachscrach]

hilarious ! ! ! great stuff

[@kimbullard770]

This is hilarious. You rock. Thank you. 😂😂😂

[@jwallguitar]

Brilliant

[@petr.agapov]

Beautiful satire!

[@rd-mu2vj]

Open studio standing up for working class musicians😂!!! I can dig it!!! Thanks guys!!! Cheers

[@peterbodofsnik9429]

Nice one

[@magnusbangolsen2765]

Oh Adam I love you

[@claragary]

Clever!

[@maloneycraig]

Really great lesson. But for us mere mortals with developing ears, the piano roll would be great so we could verify that the extensions and voicings match what we’re hearing in our head.

[@mato._.3509]

love you

[@percyvolnar8010]

OMG! We need an episode of Peter and Adam talking about music conspiracy theories. One Caveat: The set needs to feel like a fox news broadcast ( Open News ) But it should be educational and those of us who get the jokes should be laughing hard. Adam and Peter, i beg of you both... We need this. Y'all are funny as hell and both of you have impressive dead-pan.

[@thepanda4067]

Still can't work on a cruise ship without collaborating with big harma!😩

[@richardcarr5241]

The opening progression. Kinda has a Brazilian theme. Couple descending notes.

[@stevenpietrusza6944]

lmfaooooo ur nuts bro i love it big harma took my baby

[@PlayLikeTheGreatscom]

5:59 Herbie Hancock himself played the electric piano part here :D

[@edwardvivenzio5843]

This Guy!!!

[@donmoffit4025]

Hi Adam - I have a question about the secondary dominant (D7) at 4:00. I'm a trumpet player and play note after note rather than chords so forgive me, but I don't understand why an Ab and Eb are in your D7 chord. Help please?

[@ffstructures]

at the moment technically unable to donate best tutorials, ever (!) seen @YT; make it easy, please, with one button click .. visible during the video

[@blahblahoink]

Excellent behaviour

[@TommyLikeTom]

the premise of this video is hilarious. The big harmony companies don't want you to know this XD
