very nice lesson Jonny.

[@rickmorales2113]

Well done, Jonny! This is a powerful lesson, thank you.

[@jonathanbufete2768]

Wow pretty good Lesson…Amazing

[@douglesw]

This is what the internet was made for, not for all the social media narcissism and ranting that is worthless and teaches us nothing but division. I will make a real effort to sit with this instruction and make my life better!! Might even make another person feel good when I can put this on their ears. You are a positive force for the world. THANK YOU!!!

Ill be honest Jonny, when i seen your ads i thought you were just another guy trying to trick me into paying for a useless program, but man your way more than that I’ve actually learned thing is cool thank you.

[@G8tr1522]

lol, same, he gives salesman energy

[@DanBrill]

Great stuff. I love that you don't take the approach of a lot of teachers: "You can't do anything until you know everything!" This gets me started with some simple concepts that sound great. I can learn them in C and then after I have the hang of that go on to other keys, etc. Really helps to get me actually playing.

[@5naxalotl]

yep. cannot stand music theory guys who refuse to explain things in C. they're all like "today we're looking at tritone substitutions for secondary dominants, and i'll just assume everyone can follow along if i do this in A-flat"

[@christheother9088]

@@5naxalotl That's because they are trying to impress you, not teach you.

[@suvaagarwal6188]

Great. You explained so difficult concepts so easily ... thank you

[@PianoWithJonny]

Thank you!

[@tupperlienke9712]

Great lesson using neighbor tones to give lots of 'color' to the basic major scale --- and now it sounds like jazz!!

[@onikonychev]

Finally in 2020-s youtube music lessons became sooo perfect and clean! No any wasted second. Thanks man, this stuff is simply great!

[@benjaminharrisiv650]

been waiting for something like this from you, thanks jonny!

[@louispearson8306]

start with the blues scale for begginers. WAAAAAAy better. Bebop is for experienced musicians, no novice is going to be able to practice in a way that is rewarding encouraging to their development

[@alexd.alessandro5419]

Smart, accessible, and friendly as usual. Especially that you help beginners, and intermediate players, avoid the complexities of chord scale theory. Also, this is what Barry Harris says " We didn't have time to think about all those scales ".

[@nandutecla4379]

Thank you Johnny for remember us how relevamt are the chromatic approaches.

[@dstudio73]

Thanks Jonny for your Lesson.

I wish I could find someone who teaches drawing in such a great way as Jonny teaches piano!

[@CC-dn2df]

All this time I never knew about chord shells. I didn’t know there was a name for them. I’m self-taught and even now I’m still learning.

[@Sullaban]

CC I find this interesting I will not subscribe I will Google and Wiki as I am weary with glutting my email. At least those are my thoughts at the moment have to think about that for a moment. CC we must keep an eye on the Joe Biden administration here is a link on that topic. If you wish give it a quick look and have a nice one much thanks, the wonderful link not on the topic, not on the topic but very important here is the link and very worth a look studio.kzbin.info0i1fekgBW6Q/edit studio.kzbin.infoLodPBkz3Kw4/edit

Oh Man! Is there anything you can't play, Jonny? You sound amazing!

[@whatsupwithsteve]

Finally...I'm retired and have time to learn some Jazz and improv. I studied classical from 7yrs old and got pretty good, majoring in music at UCLA. Even toured with the long Beach State Symphony orchestra back in the day. The problem was while I could read and play just about anything on sheet music I never understood or learned how to do the cool jazz and improv stuff that people want to hear! So I am thrilled to find this site and I'll be signing up shortly!!! awesome site, thanks...:)

[@ruizbrian1051]

Thank you!

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

Johnny... just started.. I had skipped this earlier.. I am starting to feel and hear the approach notes much better. I am noticing that playing over the D-7 Left Hand with with Db D# is much better experience than just playing the notes themselves on the R.Hand. still working on it. I believe the first 2 approach notes up and down, according to the D7 chord are b9 #9. Could be wrong. .

[@robertdepiano]

Thank you Johnny.

[@jamesbeliveau1883]

Outstanding

[@nezkeys79]

The C6 could also be an Am7 every once in a while

[@jomarc8766]

Am7 & C6 use exact same x4 notes, different inversions. You can even try A major 7 variants making use of C sharp (Db)

[@nezkeys79]

@@jomarc8766 obviously but C6 has a different sound to Am7. It depends what note is at the bottom There's people out there that think they sound the same 0_o

Thank you it helps me a lot.and which video should i learn next.

[@LuckyIIsmail]

Thank you, this tutorial video is easy to understand.

[@looppixel]

yoo awesome video, veri inspiring!!

[@GizzyDillespee]

In this particular video, he hardly mentions right hand rhythm - he only mentions "coming up in triplets" at one point (playing 3 notes evenly within the space of 2 beats), but that's an occasional thing. Most of the time it's pairs. Anyone who's wondering why their solo doesn't sound like Jonny's... listen to how he swings the solos. He does play the triplets in a few places where they feel appropriate, but most of the time he pairs the notes and swings each pair slow-fast slow-fast slow-fast slow-fast instead of playing evenly spaced notes. His left hand is playing the Charleston rhythm that he showed how towards the beginning. He often doesn't swing the solos' notes when he shows them to us slowly, but it's there again when he speeds up and it sounds "right". So, make sure to feel that right hand swing, and give it a try. Also listen for when he pauses with a longer note or an empty space, get a feeling for when those and the triplets are due.

Great Brow...! Thanks a lot 👍

Very great approach ! Thanks for sharing.

[@DR1CHECK]

I love this but have one question, I feel it will get old and repetitive quickly, is there a break out from this, maybe throw in some power chords occasionally ? What do you suggest ?

[@SeanTheDiscoNinja]

Power chords are not really in the style. A better option would be looking at things like quartal or quintal voicings, or looking at ideas like ‘root, shell, pretty’ (adding upper extensions or alterations of chords). Otherwise, block chords and drop voicings provide a great sound too. Smooth voice leading is the key to great sounding chords though. A quick search on youtube will give you all the information you need about all of these ideas.

[@correspondancesfictives]

merci beaucoup

[@iwansetianjaya8670]

VERY VERY THANKYOU SIRRRR! YOU ARE GOD!

[@frederickkk1985]

Can i use A 5+ for the C6? Thanks for all videos

[@heinzgilbert]

yes you can,

[@FreeTheJambon]

Do you think this can be applied to say a guitar? As long as I identify quickly my important notes

[@andrewstrasser]

Is c major 6 also a minor in first inversion?

How about rootless 2 5 1.

Do you know any thelonious monk stuff?

O principal é tocar as notas de passagem sempre na parte fraca de tempo. Se não fizer isto, não soa bem, não dá certo.

[@jeremiahschreiter452]

Hey Jonny, what do you use to record your piano? Mic, Midi,?

[@hansramirez6564]

probably with a usb interface, or a really nice midi vst

[@ghettobrown1121]

does you line need to end on the note that you start on or does it matter?

[@weedanwine]

it doesn't matter, but by ending on the starting note it's an easy way to give a feeling of resolution and ending.

[@Gustavo_Weckesser]

En el título yo cambiaría la palabra "escribió" por "inspiró". Tal vez podría usar "escribió" para Hey Jude y Bach (take a Bach song and make it better). Saludos

[@gourmet53]

What's the point of using C6 in the progression if it's played with C&E the same as CMaj7?

[@willzang3000]

cmaj7 is more dissonant, as with anything musical, if you like the sound of cmaj7 then use it !!!!! :)
