I'm a guitarist that is now immersed in the piano playing of Barry Harris. Thank you for the guitarists perspective on the Harris method. Once the muscle memory kicks in it is a blast to explore the feeling of all this. When I can do it without thinking about my hands it is a marvel. Thank you

Completely Agree. I'm still finding new beautiful things every day. It's such an awesome way to look at harmony.

6:08 I believe for piano players in fact the third and fifth stay the same, the root borrows the note above and the 6th borrows the note above. This way you end up with short and long voicings depending on how it's inverted. If it were the 3rd and the 5th borrowing, you'd just get two different short voicings!

Lovely coincedence that you cover this topic just as I was beginning to learn about it, never a lack of things to learn from Barry

CAVEAT! Chris starts this video by cross referencing to Isaac Raz’s short/long tutorial, and I spun my wheels trying to square the 2 approaches. I suddenly realized that they are not demonstrating the same concept. Chris is demonstrating a 6thDim structure where the 6th chord starts by borrowing the outside notes from its diminished partner, and the diminished by borrowing from the 6th chord. Isaac’s video is showing a purely diatonic 7-chord series where each diatonic middle 3rd is simply borrowing diatonic notes from the major scale. Thats pretty as well, but it produces a traditional diatonic progression as opposed to Barry’s long/shorts which produce the expected V->I movment.

Correct Jerry! But, Isaac actually made a different video where he's answering questions, where he starts doing long and short on Major 6th diminished. Can't remember which video, but it's there.

@@thingsivelearnedfrombarryh2616 Thanks Chris! I wish I could find it because this is one time where seeing it demo’d on piano is easier to grasp on my instrument (chromatic button accordion, CBA) bcause drop voicings do not lie well, while closed ones do. I’ll keep looking. At some point I need to share what I’ve found regarding the ways in which CBA is a frighteningly perfect layout for applying Barry’s methodologies.)

Not sure Barry's take but I always thought a shell was a 1 3 7 / 537 kind of can have the same effect...of course a sixth chords 1 6 3.... Man thats a monster on the 5 fret span on an acoustic! That middle major six drop 2 from the bass is already tough! You can fake it and skip that 3rd there

Always so helpful. Thank you! Where does the term “short” come from? What’s the significance of the name “short”?
@thingsivelearnedfrombarryh26168 ай бұрын
I think it is just referring to the size of the movement on the piano. This is a small or "Short" movement where as the big movement is "Long". I'm not 100 percent sure though. Hopefully a pianist can comment and clarify.

Hi! Thanks (from Sweden) for this video. So there are B. Harris-books? Where and how can you buy them?
@thingsivelearnedfrombarryh26168 ай бұрын
Allan Kingston, and Roni Ben Hur have books out. Also, Howard Rees sells Barry's workshop Dvds shot in Canada.
