And I also see that you use a LH fingering (e.g. at 9:51) that I (as an amateur) would not have chosen. I would use (2,1), (5,1), (3,2) and (3,1) and so on... My automatic fingering tend to choose the fingering that you show in the video (at 9:50 using (2,1), (5,1), (2,1) and (2,1)), but it seems anatomically better choose the fingering I suggest above. In your choice, in a subsequent run you have to move (2,1) from (C,E) to (D,F) (both fingers), whereas in my suggestion you only have to move 1 from E to F having 2 free to place it on D. I suppose I have erroneous assessments, but could you elaborate a bit on that? Generally, in your lessons, I think you should focus somewhat more on fingering issues. I have the conviction that having the fingering as good as ergonomically possible from the start will prevent later muscle trouble.

I like the general idea of this exercise and I’ve done stuff quite similar to it but I really don’t like where the 4ths wind up rhythmically on the Imaj7. I like to do this kind of stuff but using the bebop major and Dorian scales. In that context, you wind up with the chord tones in all the important places rhythmically.

Great tutorial as ever! As a "classical intermediate/confused jazz beginner" could you explain how/why you chose the G dominant diminished scale?
@EvanWiederandersMusic2 жыл бұрын
On a G dominant chord, there are 4 notes: G, B, D, and F. However, you can add more notes that give it more evolved and interesting qualities. These extra notes are called extensions, and as it turns out, the diminished scale has many extensions that happen to sound good on dominant chords.
@Flying-Roro2 жыл бұрын
The dominant diminished scale usually works on dominant seventh chords, aka the fifth of a major scale or the seventh of a minor scale.
@DizzyKrissi2 жыл бұрын
Using the altered scale would even give you the #5 but this scale sounds interesting, too.

Hello Johny I am a member of Piano witn Johny, it is amazing what I am learning. I wanted to comment that I have been having some problems with the fingering on this exercise. I see that you start each time with a different finger, I haven't learned this yet. Do you have any exercises for this? it would be great to have this agulity to be able to go up and up the scales more automatically. Greetings!

Thank you, I will practice it more. I just want to ask you, if you truly know, how jazzmans do it, that they hear all the chords immediately. I can recognize triad like 1 4 5 or sometimes tonic on 6 and the other chords I just guess. Is it about psyche or emotional ease?

I love your courses, they pinpoint exactly what I need at this stage. Thanks so much! But: I miss fingering annotations very, very much. E.g. in this excercise it took me a quarter of an hour (at 6:51) to find out that 3 on the B flat in the second bar and 2 on the F (the last note) beautifully gave me the thumb (1) on the G in the 3. bar. And so on, which opened up the eternity of the excercise upwards. I would have saved much time if you had given me that cue in the first place. (This also goes for the left hand, of course.) I am considering paying for your courses, as i like them very much. Will the paid lessons give the fingering annotations?
