Jazz Piano College 118 | Stolen Moments | post-bop cool

Tutorial jazz piano. While I edited this video, I realized that mant listeners would understand improv better if a bass line was present. I had to splice a few things because my time was not really accurate when I was filming at the piano. Next time it will be. Some pdf files for you:
rootless voicings and scales :: goo.gl/JocmUY

Merci monsieur Winston, je ne parle pas très bien anglais, mais vous êtes un excellent professeur, je peux donc jouer Stolen Moments dans le Jazz Band de mon école de musique. Le PDF m'a beaucoup aidé! alors merci encore. Je m'abonne à votre chaîne, c'est évident.

This is fantastic, thank you for this easy to understand clinic on one of my favorite tunes! Subscribed 🎉

[@julianvignoles2821]

I find your videos so inspiring! I’m a late comer to piano; I started when I was 40, twenty seven years ago. I’m still trying!

[@MrZedhow]

Me too mate! Started around the same age and I’m 70 in a month. Finally found a teacher who works for me. He’s inspiring indeed and I’m incredibly grateful. Loving this journey, my playing is really improving and that’s all I could have asked for. Z

Merci beaucoup, Tony. Je suis un vieux (70 ans) et pas très bien formé guitariste de jazz ; mais ça ne m'empêche d'apprécier votre créativité, et vos connaissances sans frime (without showing off). J'aime bien aussi les chaussures qu'on voit dans le placard derrière le bassiste. It's homy!

[@davesax11]

Stolen moments has been one of my favorite tunes since the 60's. (since, not from). Thanx for this great lesson. & thanx for correcting the Real (inaccurate) Book.

[@davesax11]

Thanx so much for this. One of my favorite tunes since forever...

[@karenstephens2047]

Hi Tony. I have only just discovered you. You are amazing. Thank you so much for putting yourself out there for us hungry students.

[@rachelthomas9962]

Many thanks Tony, and also to the bass player. I'm going to wear this video out... you've crammed it with all I need. I'm really grateful. So interesting and full of helpful ideas.

[@mdsharp5d349]

thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your awesome and wise information, and Burn'n play'n!

[@MrZedhow]

Love this! Too much good stuff on this amazing site, I keep getting distracted while studying the specific tune I’m studying every time you put up something new- basically all the time! Not complaining, just another comment to relate how much I’m getting out of my Patreon subscription. More than worth every penny for those wondering whether to join.

[@gengisokhan]

Thank you so much. This is just fantastic.

[@KayBenyarko]

Tony I am loving the sound.You are the man!

[@Spineloro]

Gorgeous chords, finally smthg accessible I can play with you😆 THANK YOU

[@Ybatec]

Thanks Tony, I've watched every video so far and I have to say that your way of breaking down the standards is so refreshing and nice to follow. I tried many channels over years and yours definitely the one I'm gonna stick with. How about doing Devil May Care someday? Keep it going! Greetings from Germany :)

[@TonyWinston]

Devil vid is up.

[@lorimfrancis1]

Thanks so much!

[@VeradoSil]

Thank you Tony, I just happened to be working on that one. Appreciate the point of view. And now you can afford a bass player fantastic!

[@marcosquitopianolounge6350]

Excepcional !!!! Genius !!! Only half a day, and you clarify all doubts, and you showed things that are very difficult to hear.... that nuance part A, Cminor to Cmaj is beautiful... and the same at end, Gm, to G alt is something. Thank you so much Tony !! Great job. Greetings from Brazil !! .... Now I have to come back to earth and try to improvise over WAVE... that's big challenge.

[@BobMinsky]

Brillant. Thk you.

[@Ladywingum]

I learn so much from you. Thank you!

[@reinhardheiderich1879]

Greetings from Reinhard. Thank you Tony 👍🎹

[@a.dselinger9291]

As the others have said, this is great information - many thanks Tony.

[@parlomur7515]

It’s good. Very good. Votre générosité musicale est incroyable.

[@sanglito4828]

I would be amazing if you was able to do a special video about Jazz improvisation with specific scales. Something like how to improvise with scales during a long time ( like a jazz bar man ). Thanks !

[@jorgegera9042]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge Tony, you are also hilarious, that head comment cracked me up!

[@reinhardheiderich1879]

Hey Tony. Thanks for the top Video. Kind regards from Reinhard. Germany

[@JulianLambert]

Great stuff - thanks Tony.

[@marcosquitopianolounge6350]

Uaw , great !!! I was distracted , still digesting the beautifull prhases and already crazy chords of the theme (stolen moments), when suddenly I saw your hands crossed, and there was a magic bass player, and crazy chords, altered, no real altered, no actually minor 69, no negative harmony, chromatic changes, no this, no that.... Uaw !!!!! I thought "where do I am ?? ". It is too much for me... The sequences of chords at the repetitive final prhase is already unclear to me... The Blues part is the Blues part... deserves another video. Thank you anyway !!! it's too much concentrated information. Beautifull song ! I 'll be more than happy if I can play single notes melody + chords that reminds this song.

[@monkeysbum999]

@ 4.04 here , the the last beat of the F-6 becomes Fmi sus6 (Db9 3rd in root) ,before returning to Cmi7 .( when i checked with the record) (or Dbsus9 with the third in the root)

[@TonyWinston]

I'll check that out. A Db chord might be right but if the bass hits G then it's got to be some kind of altered G7 chord

[@nezkeys79]

7:24 LOL 😆

[@karlao1689]

I would like to learn this amazing intro. Could you please send me the link to your tutorial ? Thx ❤🎶

[@paullancheros]

Pentatonic scale fingerings in all keys

[@TinoCarugati]

Great!

[@markscott2026]

Amazing. I have no idea what you mean, except as I see your hands do it.

[@paulallenMacca]

I first thought when i heard this Intro it was the song Unforgettable.

[@eternalrainbow-cj3iu]

this is great if you could always play a Tunentotally you are much to modest and gentle.man bit we enjoy your paying greatmy if you play bass with it or and rythm section drumsnisnterrific too!!!!

[@TonyWinston]

Thanks ER, I'm scared! But I will try give a few complete performances an upcoming videos. Always good to hear from you!

[@kairos_sou-nd]

quality content.

[@markbra]

Only Miles can be"Miles" !

[@marcopepe4046]

At 21:38 do you start with D minor (with the fourth and the seventh) and go up an half step to D# min , then to E min? What scale do you use with the right hand? Thank you.

[@TonyWinston]

Marco Pepe good question, I wasn't thinking about my right hand at that point .. Just playing notes I heard in my head I guess. Seems like c minor pentatonic .

[@marcopepe4046]

Then, when you go up to E 21:40 (with the fourth and the seventh) with the left hand and C min pentatonic (or C blues perhaps) with the right hand, harmonically (D would be minor 7th, but D# would be maj 7th; then F would be minor 2nd, etc...) what sound did you get? What's the chord to consider?

[@nezkeys79]

Annoys me when you play with a bass player and use rootless voicings and they decide theyre never gonna use the root on beat 1 when walking

[@TonyWinston]

nezkeys79 I agree with you for the most part. Tritone substitutions are ok and chords that last 2 bars or more are places where the bass can be more adventurous.

[@nezkeys79]

Tony Winston absolutely. I dont mind it here and there so long as the root is actually played. Some players just take a liberty and play a walking line without the root anywhere in sight, or play whatever they want over slash chords that are two beats per bar or even on all 4 beats....nope
