Jazz Piano College | TRITONE substitution | deep analysis

[@MrZedhow]

Typically brilliant explanation and demonstration of this topic, it’s opened how and when to use the tritone substitution, something that’s always baffled me a bit.

[@BobMinsky]

Thank you, one of the best and clear explanations about tritone substitution, and how to use it.

[@JocelynForget1]

thank you very much Tony, I already knew this concept but your explanations and exemples are so fantastic, it help strengthen my knowledge.

[@justinpurtill]

Excellent video. You present this concept in a way that is easy to understand. I've been sharing a few of your videos with my students. Hope that's cool....

[@jankfroyen]

An inspiring professor! Makes complex matters simple. Highly recommended.

[@liriosanz]

Buenísimo

I'm looking forward to watching the rest of this tomorrow. You're open chord voicing formulas have really improved the sound of my standard jazz tune arrangements! Do you have videos on ornaments such as where to put grace notes, making fills and runs too? Making intros and endings would be great to learn too. Thank you for your videos!

Hello. You are such a great teahcher! Ive learnt a lot from your videos. I am practicing piano with this. A big THANK YOU from Tokyo!:)

[@theodorekorbos2804]

Doc Tony Thank you for the sheet music it's more than kind of you !! I look forward to playing these pieces !! Thanks again Teddy Korbos !!

[@eternalrainbow-cj3iu]

I was playing on a "organized" jam session(nice contradiction: organized and "Jam"), and we had to play fly me to the moon(broomstickjazz) and than I remember your Tritonesubs. Some I could, but actually I failed in the how-to, so it brought me back to this video I played the Triads without 7 it sounded not bad but it could've been better, it's nice how you explain, also because I tried a lot of those alt's on autumn leaves to and your thinking while talking is nice to hear and make a lot of sense!

[@marcuscoates4858]

Very Interesting Tony! Great video, Thank you.

[@michaeldennis1437]

Tony--I just now found this great video. Very insightful. I learned quite a few things from it. On "Fly Me To The Moon", I developed a first measure you may like: | Bb∆9 Am9 Eb7#11 / |Dm etc . The Eb7#11 gets the last two beats of the measure. Anyway, thanks for posting these terrific videos. I'm a better player because of them.

[@Dejan_Brawlstars.]

Thank you.you are great teacher.

[@eternalrainbow-cj3iu]

also, I try to combine the drop 2 voicings and the tritone sub- but it is not that easy because of an awful lot of possibilities and I like to try them out all!

[@eternalrainbow-cj3iu]

also, I want to play Rootless voicings in those tritone cases so I am going to the bass player next time and secretly reveal where I want him to back-up me! (Tritone-conspiracy, mostly let the Jazz police shut there mouses(mouthes)

[@GeometryDashAcamar]

Tony the coolest cat

[@danball4410]

You talked about the bass player being able to use the tri-tone substitution, and then also the pianist using it if there is no bass player. Can I ask why, if there is no bass player, would you use rootless voicings instead of playing those root notes?

[@raefblack7906]

Well done my friend! Any chance of doing a video on the song 'Four' by Miles Davies

[@miketaylorsr7884]

Thanks! You have been a big help. Could you do a tutorial on common jazz runs, triplets and motifs. Thanks.

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

Tony...Consfused.The G7b5 indicates a G in the left hand.and (F A (B Cb Eb) the right.hand. B and Cb are the same.. I may be reading it wrong. .

[@ivandac5]

More clear than that, You can't have it, great.

[@carlosalonso8345]

fly me to the room? ;D

[@Malcolm.Y]

You are surley my favorite KZbin jazzer. I am from the Coker Book era, too. It's lie you say when you get to Autumn Leaves - half-twp above. Why bother telling yourself you reharmed Am7 to A7, so you can tell yourself you reharm A7t to Eb7 (a half-step above the next chord)? The longer explanation is more inventing theory. Don't we all now that haf-step lead-ins are fundamental to all music?. You speak at the outset of "dominant function," but a chord rooted up a half step wants to reslove at least as much as one rooted a fourth below. Just play the bass notes: C-C-C-G and C-C-C-Db. It is easty to hear. Makes more sense to call it a "substitution" when it is NOT a dominant function, when it's not a lead-. Consider Satin Doll. The improvisation can be one measure of Dm9 followed by one measure of Db9 (as an altered or embellished G7 that is not in "dominant function" to the next chord, Em7. LOL Just a thought.

[@eternalrainbow-cj3iu]

their, sorry
