This channel just delivers one demystification after another to me. Those sounds that I knew well, but wouldnt be able to replicate, it turns out actually follow a simple logic, e.g. the fith/forth in the right hand and fixed chords in the left. So cool, thaaaanks

Adam, I grew up at 91 Stoneyside in Olivette, near Old Bonhomme. I'm crudding myself to think that such jazz resources now exist in my home town. When I was there I was the only jazz person for miles around. I'm studying piano and you are amaaaazing!

Who wudda thunk? Adding a Major 7 with a Dominant 7 chord would sound so good....my ear could never pick that up! Oscar Peterson! What a genius player, with enormous hands!!

I loved this quick lesson: your clear explanation step-by-step, breaking down how the voicings are built (e.g., a perfect fifth then a fourth, or showing the major second interval in the middle of the spread, etc. -- makes it easy to remember how to do it). I appreciate that you allow time to practice with you in the lesson, and then you play a bass line to back us up -- and the free PDF that includes the exercises! Very valuable. Crunchy is my favorite texture! Thanks!

Awesome content! As an extension of the Red’s Spread, you can also add the 4th in addition to the 5th. A little more crunch, but really cool in the right setting. Also for any of these, when any of the notes are on a white note it’s fun to slide off of the black note right below it

For hitting all major 9ths (in the level3 one) diatonically. Use a pentatonic "shape" for either top or bottom. F.e bottom note Dminor-pentatonic (top note will automatically follow Eminor-penta or viceversa) over Dm7(dorian). Just using these two notes on its own gives a kind of strange "modern" sound (i like it for guitar).

Hello!!! I would like to know the difference between Block Spreads (the level 2) and Upper Structures!!! Congrats from Brazil!!!
@fondtrout63543 жыл бұрын
I think when Adam says, “it doesn’t matter how you fill in the octaves as long as you’re diatonic to the harmony” on level 2, that’s a clue. The upper structure triads are useful as a method of accessing complex harmony with a simple frame of mind - “triad built on the ii = Lydian dominant,” or “triad built on the bvi = altered.” The block spread technique is more about producing that “big” sound and you’re probably going to be moving notes around a lot to make a melody with the “big” sound, so it’s not critical to define exactly which structures you have inside the octave. You want as few steps in your mental process as possible when utilizing these techniques so that you can execute without hesitation.

I'm really enjoying this. Am staying up late to watch it. Might try some on the piano tomorrow. It's a well constructed lesson and screen format. I notice that the piano is slightly behind the metronome. Is that to make it swing more, or is it a latency issue?

@billgrabbe99923 жыл бұрын
Are you using an upright piano sound? It seems like the thicker voicings sit better with the understated piano tone. Having big overtones fighting with big chord dissonances might be too much here. My takeaway - the character of your instrument is a meaningful context that should influence your choices.

Usually means a lot of dissonance, especially with 2 or more notes right next to each other.
