A secret that I learned when I was about 10-12 years old, was to play Disney songs. Most of those Disney composers from the jazz era had lots of macros or riffs that you can incorporated in your playing. That was also the time that I learned to play Broadway musical songs for the white people at school middle school. Alot of that stuff is learning to move back and forth between minor, augmented chords, and 3 note diminished chords and learning to add a 4 note in there somewhere when playing minor keys. Then play fourths, fifths, and major 3rds when filling over major chords. Sean has a very interesting way of explaining things and I enjoy it because I don't think like he does. He has very good perspective.

[@jefflittlemusic3205]

Tonycowin, I appreciate your response. As an Atheist, you kindly handled our exuberance to share God’s plan with you…smile. Music to a Believer is one evidence for God’s existence, so we rightly so, get excited about “un-earthly” music. It is beautiful that atheists and believers alike, can appreciate and acknowledge beautiful music that seems to skip over our individual platforms, beliefs and biases. I listened to a secular artist last night in a public square outside and admitted that the talent this musician had, seemed to come from a creative space that no one else on earth seemed to be able to access themselves, unless some “key” to that talent was given to them. Creativity with skill, is a crazy thing to try and loin down, with only a scientific mindset. Thanks again for being kind and honest in your responses. I am guessing we both had the jaw of our minds dropped, when we listened to this piano line…grin. Peace to you and hope you keep listening to music from our side of the stage, as I am still amazed by music from outside my belief system.

@BibleBeliever-c6d Did you Major in music via college? I DID. Have you played with Jazz Master Musicians? I have. Have you composed music with Grammy Award winners? I have... If you haven't done the above things, my statement may appear strange. Many things in life may appear strange or not true until we gain knowledge of these beautiful things. :)

[@kachebeeabdullah4297]

Study our musical roots... Then, you may begin to understand my statement. Study Miles Davis, Coltrane, Charlie Parker, Armstrong, etc. These are just a few of our African American Classical Musicians and Composers ❤️🙂

[@kenfontenot]

@@kachebeeabdullah4297 Music History isn't predicated on your ability to study and partake in it. And yes I have compose with Marcus Jordan, Randy Jenkins, JT Dillard, and played with reputable jazz groups in HTX. Two of those are Grammy nominates. And I'm deeply study in world history as well as the types of music from all over the world. And nowhere in time has there been an officiate for the category African American Classical music. So stop the cap.

[@kenfontenot]

@@kachebeeabdullah4297 Those aren't African American roots. Those are American roots. You don't even know that the word Jazz was first viralized in Baseball. The word comes from the word "jasm" which is Irish. The first jazz album was recorded at Victor Records in 1917 by Original DixieLand Jazz Band who created all the standards that all those musicians you listed would go on to play. Jazz is American music. Not African American Classical music. There is no such thing as European American music. We are all Americans and people like you want to instigate division because of a chip in your shoulder.

I don’t think it was too much, but understand the comments. I’m guessing he was too busy for the moment (eg- more runs than chords).

[@TheSeeking2know]

Wendy is a lovely singer. I discovered her recently and now follow her on IG. I do think Kim Burrell would be more suitable for this jazzy singer as she would play vocally and trade with him. Ms. Wendy, in my humble opinion needed a bit more aligned player who would start behind her and just provide flourishes within the scope of what she was singing - her style.

The freedom in embellishment is beyond music theory. No rules apply when you are in the flow state of playing. The only thing I remember about some of my solos is the reaction after the solo is done. Notes alone do not explain or convey the flow state. However, looking at the name of a chord and examining the possiblities juxtiposing the melody is exilerating.

@@kazbj9265 If you go look this guy up, you’ll see that he even plays behind choirs like this. I saw a video where he was doing this and he had to keep telling them to sing.

That’s part of the reason jazz isn’t as popular today. Most people understand emotions and how music makes them feel! I don’t care how great your chops are, if the people can’t comprehend it, it’s NOT effective!

I know what I’m talking about.. less is more In REAL live situations.. u only play like this in smaller churches and or Shed sessions and or open mics with a bunch of musicians around.. but in NO PROFFESIONAL setting will this fly with ANY major ARTIST.. u won’t be HIRED back!!

The pianist put together some really neat sounds together. Too much to speak of. However, the accompaniment became overbearing and it seems as if the pianist took over the song, instead of truly being a support for the singer. My interpretation of the singer pausing, was because things got whacked out of proportion and the singer wasn’t being given support for what she was doing, and so she had to stop in order to musically reset. Still, the pianist has some superior playing. I can only hope to play as well in my lifetime.
