My DAD WAS MY BEST FRIEND. He would listen to jazz ( no trad!): he taught me so much . I miss sitting with him, listening together. Mum would go outside! My 1st gig l went too, l was 3yrs old , & DAVE BRUBECK was playing. I remember it. Dads ‘gone home’ now, & he left me these priceless jazz records, & CDs. ( about 20 thousand, no joke! ) We actually loved vinyl; the wow & flutter on some records, kinda sounded cool. 😉 Now l’m a broke muso, coz in OZSTRALYA, there’s lots of places you can’t play at; coz of COVID. Anyhoo, can’t wait until l play live again. Thanx for your perceptive on how you explain jazz. Stay Safe!! 🎹👊🏾 😃
very interesting, thanks for the contribution, I realize that it is a valuable tool and gives that particular color to the improvisation... I remember the rector of my school, when I was studying, he told us... "don't go to bed with the same ignorance you got up with"... every day, it is a blessing to learn, I say this because of these resources. Thank you.
Mccoy Tyner is the GOAT! Was waiting for John Coltrane to make an entrance once you really got going there. Any chance you could make a video about Thelonious Monk voicings?
You are my life saver, I'm actually starting to watch all your videos from the beginning onwards, got a lot of videos to slowly go through but you've got everything I'll need to get so so much ❤️
I have followed you through the years, and have heard and seen how you have grown into a alsome. Teacher, musician and a incredible man. Keep up the brilliants that lead to greatness.
I keep coming back to this video. Extremely effective lesson for us that want to broaden our minds and start the journey towards more free minded improvisation. Also a great foundation for developing my own musical language based on quartal vocings and the McCoy Tyner sound. I´ve wanted this knowledge since I was eighteen. Now I'm 65 and this was really a jump start for my free improvisation.
Thanks for these last two videos that explain the basics of my favorite pianistes language and contribution to pianism and harmony. Not only you elucidate McCoy's approach, but also that of all those influenced by him. If you don't know your Bud, McCoy and Herbie, you are not playing jazz yet.
Wow!!!! Thank you for your great knowledge and sharing this with all of us.You've managed to pack hours and tons of information into just a few minutes and presented it in such a very understandable way thank you so very much
Hi Noah, I just want to extend my appreciation to you for all you've done for the world of jazz. McCoy Tyner was always someone my Dad and I were able to listen to and enjoy together, he's been thrilled to see my progress in piano and you played a huge part in part 🙏🏿
To take “this voicing” just talks to me about the beauty of moving your hands to create and compose. And thanks to you for spreading the voice of piano and jazz 🎇
Hi Noah, I really feel like you have the best tutorial channel here on youtube right now. On top of the fact that the videos are very relaxed en useful to learn. Especially the fact that you use different pianists in your video as examples helps me since I can start listening and use that to improve my own improv!
Love these videos! You always manage to teach advanced concepts in such a succinct and digestible way. The diatonic movement of the fourths in the left hand combined with the modulations offers a really spectral sound. It also gives the left hand a rather active role. Looks like I have something new to practice!
great work and explanations, really nice productions. You're in the top 3 "must subscribe" youtubers I give my students when they start asking about jazz
Wow, that was a lot easier than I thought it would be. I love his sound. Saw him live from the third row in the eighties and he took me somewhere I have never been. I mentally left the room! (and I was a rocker, not a jazz guy!) Many thanks Noah. I just retired and this is on my "to do" list.
Noah thank you so much for these videos. As a newer player, its easier for me to pick up on what youre showing. I feel like I'm playing real jazz! One of the only creators today doing what you're doing. Keep up the high quality content!
I picked up the piano during covid, and before discovering your channel I was just finding song tutorials. Your channel is a game changer, it's the reason I started practicing more jazz/improv piano - Thanks so much! It's been super useful for being more systematic and being able to give a name to a "cool" chord and understand why it sounds good, and also for unblocking new arrangements I wouldn't have thought of trying. That chord voicing in Fourths sounds amazing btw! Can't wait to incorporate it more!
I love that your followed up on your previous video with another one on McCoy Tyner. I love his sound and I want to incorporate elements of his style into my playing. Thank you!
For the first 24 years of my life I did nothing but eat, drink, breathe, sleep Piano. I started playing by ear when I was 2 years old. When I was 24 while I was paying out of pocket to put myself through college to get a Music Performance Degree, my index finger on my right hand (dominant hand) was crushed off of my hand by a 5,000 lb piece of machinery. I had 5 surgeries and almost a decade of physical therapy. My entire life was ruined and my whole future was taken away in a split second. The attorney I hired was a criminal and I received nothing for the injury. I have gone many many months as a homeless person. I am now 39 and left with a right hand that has the dexterity of a lobster claw. My only hope to get back into playing seriously again is to work on my Left hand. This video was very helpful as always Noah. I hope you make more like it soon.
Man, i pray to god that I can get on top of just a few of the awesome concepts you are sharing. And just to win one fourth of that cool foldable piano. Keep up the good work, always love to watch your videos; they make me practice more.
Fourths do such a great job imparting airiness and space to a sound, especially when compared to closer voicings. It's an immediately recognizable sound from Tyner and the pianists who came after him (I've always associated the sound with 70s herbie.) Something I really enjoy doing with quartal voicings is combining them with a tense right hand voicing, preferably with a minor 2nd in there somewhere. You can balance out a lot of dissonance with a counterweight of consonance, especially in the bass.
Love that thought, Ian. Going to experiment with that tonight! Agree with you on quartal voicings- though I might like 5ths in voicings even more. What are those, quintal voicings? haha!
Love the content! Have been looking for this kind of thoughtful breakdown of Tyner's left hand voicings for forever. Thanks again for another gem Noah!
For anyone interested in the McCoy dominant sound I would suggest listening to Benito Gonzalez. He has taken McCoys dominant sound even further. He's a great modern pianist following McCoy's footsteps. Insightful video as always. Thanks Noah!
Congratulations on nearing 100,000 subscribers! Love the openness from the tritones. Thanks for your great videos and information. I’m a piano teacher who loves learning from your videos and the sharing with my students.
Jacob Collier was part of the reason i tried exploring jazz. Ever since then, I've been constantly discovering a variety of different artists and bands to take inspiration from. I wasn't really familiar of McCoy Tyner until now so I'd definitely take a listen to his old releases. I hope you can cover more jazz legends and their techniques in your future videos. Thanks!
I really like the way you lay out your materials and it gives me a better understanding of McCoy Tyler. I first learned about Tyler thru another great pianist Eddie Palmieri who uses fourths and various Avant Garde devices in his style of playing.
Another brilliant lesson. Amazing how you continue to uncover these new concepts week after week. You've basically been my piano teacher the last year or so! I've learned so much about the instrument and just music in general. Constantly discovering new harmonies, chords and ideas for working with the keyboard. This pentatonic voicing has me recalling your stride lesson and how I can use these shapes to leap around with my left hand. This lesson has really planted some improvisational seeds. I wonder, what other kind of rhythmic patterns could you use in the left hand? I come from a drumming background and would be curious to see how less conventional rhythms could be incorporated around these chords, or accompanying melodic lines.
This is great man. I appreciate you putting time into this. I’m a strings teacher in Atlanta for elementary students and I also compose and play bass. I’ve been learning a lot from your videos about harmony, and I commend you for your commitment to educating us. Cool to think this resource will be there forever! I teach between 3 schools on trailers and none have a piano. It would be dope to be able to have a keyboard in the class room and move it between the schools. I used to teach on a nice big room with a piano, and I definitely miss accompanying my students. Keep it up bro. ❤️
Hey thanks so much for the comment Chris. Makes me really happy to hear you are finding the videos useful. Thanks for your commitment to educating students as well. The work you are doing is so important. 🙏🙏
These quartal voicings with those fifths in the bass are perfect for getting a cool sound a lot of people love. I would love to have a keyboard. My upright is out of tune again and I'd like to play for people again. I love your content. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I understood this concept, and at last, it is logical to use two scales half step apart to make this dominant chord interesting. I am not that fast on the piano, and I wonder when to use this idea when the tempo is fast and your dominant chord lasts no more than a bar or even half a bar.
I think that the patent to use 4th voicings is to take the minor pentatonic of a some key and omit every other degree then it produces patterns for ex: 1-4-7-b3-5 and so on from different degrees
If I heard something like this at a jazz club I would think, Damn! this guy sounds legit! great job McCoy also did this stuff chromatically because once you do 2 stacked 4th it covers 6 tones and one 4 are played in a row it covers all 12 kind of a cool concept.
In order to actually learn manauvering with these voices does it help to think of them with patterns and not triad build ups? Cause i think it becomes more complicated when you actually play them like that :/ but in terms of harmonic relationships it always helps , especcially if you pay attention to the notes that guide the harmony, or so i think...
Thanks, that just explained something I had struggled to understand that I had heard going on in a lot of jazz tunes. Not easy to reproduce but now at least I have an approach to work on.
Do you have any advice on how to be unique while using pentatonics/fourths? It seems like I create the same exact vibe every time I use these concepts, I wanna change the color up
dig the content man! just right to the thing. as a continuation of the series you could try on how to comp different kind of tunes using fourths voicings.
I like the sound of this voicing. It has a cool layed back sound. It sounds like the way a cool jazz musician would talk like if everyone spoke in music instead of words. All the other young musicians coming to listen to this guy play want to sound like him too. They'd all go home after the gig and practice in front of the mirror talking to themselves, jamming like he did.
Hi Noah, would you approach in the same way with other chords that are not dominant? Like for example in an F Blues, while playing over the ii - V - I what would you play over the ii (Dorian sound)? Would you play the G minor chord, like F - Bb - D on the left and D Minor Pentatonic (F Major Pentatonic) on the right hand (or maybe a G minor Pentatonic maybe?)?
Oh man, I want this piano so bad I can‘t see straight. I‘ll say anything to get it! But all that aside, I have gotten SO MUCH out of your videos. My practice list has become so big that I spend hours shedding on your material. What‘s gotten me most, lately, are the chord arpeggios. I particularly like the One with the Tritone in the right hand. And the licks are great too. I‘m rather anti lick on the gig, but believe they are good for the learning process. I tend to break them down into rudiments, in the hope that they flow out naturally on the gig, so their not forced. Also the stride vid has been extremely helpful. Thanks!
Great stuff man, I’m interested in trying these things in other modes now, maybe different scales too like harmonic minor, harmonic major, melodic minor, and major
thank you for this video!! i’ve been looking for a good breakdown of more complex harmonic techniques inspired by some of the greats like Tyner that i can incorporate into my own compositions. I’ve been struggling with falling into the same harmonic patterns while improvising but this concept of quartal left-hand voicings and dominant pentatonic motion is sure to spice up my playing. my only question is, how could I tastefully put my own spin on these voicings in context of more contemporary, neo-jazz sounding pieces? it would be great if you did video on how to synthesize the “old” and the “new” in terms of jazz harmony.

WOW ! Fantastic story ! 😄 😄 👊
Wow Belinda, that's a beautiful story. Dave Brubeck was a huge inspiration to me and a wonderful person. You stay safe too!
I love how it's actually so simple. And yet it sounds very complex.
This opens alot of possibilities when begin to apply it to different modes!
nice general overview of McCoy LH voicings
This lesson is a great compliment to last week's video
damn these chord are too smooth .
with the right hand playing , it really a vibe
Thanks a lot Sir
Your videos have been helping me a lot since my journey in playing piano
very interesting, thanks for the contribution, I realize that it is a valuable tool and gives that particular color to the improvisation...

I have been following you for years dude! You took me from 0-100. I’m tuned in every week. Practicing everyday
Great vid as always noah, commenting to tell u i like this pace of vid
Thanks Sir 🙏
Love this🥰🔥
God bless you
Love and appreciate your content Noah, thanks for sharing your knowledge, a labour of love. Greetings from Durban, South Africa
Interesting, thanks for your consistency man
I can’t even say anything all the lessons you give helped me out this entire journey that I’ve been doing especially playing on gigs. It’s all of you
This is eye-opening. Thank you.
Love the switching from F4 to Gflat and then with the right hand pentatonic scale it forms really nice sound color! Thank you so much!
I always liked McCoy Tyner's playing. And exactly THIS is what I love about his style!
Mccoy Tyner is the GOAT! Was waiting for John Coltrane to make an entrance once you really got going there. Any chance you could make a video about Thelonious Monk voicings?
That keyboard looks INTERESTING
This is what I've been looking for

Amazing introduction to pentatonic in jazz, I been searching for this for a while and you explained it super clear. Thank you !
Great video, can't wait to practice this.

This voicings makes playing outside the key easier... Thank you
Learned so much from the video. Really love the voicing.
The clarity I’ve seen attacking McCoy’s left hand in a short lesson!
Thanks! I didn't know that there were so many 7su4's in the dominant scale. That's a lot of 7su4's.
Great job!

nailed the mccoy quartal / pentatonic style. Any tips on playing "out" tastefully with this?
For the first 24 years of my life I did nothing but eat, drink, breathe, sleep Piano. I started playing by ear when I was 2 years old. When I was 24 while I was paying out of pocket to put myself through college to get a Music Performance Degree, my index finger on my right hand (dominant hand) was crushed off of my hand by a 5,000 lb piece of machinery.

Wow thank you for sharing those keys 🔑 on the keys 🎹 A mature sounding concept made simple.
I look forward to learning more from you!
Man, i pray to god that I can get on top of just a few of the awesome concepts you are sharing.

Thank you, this just opened up possibilities on the composition I am working on.
Thanks for the video Noah. Always very educational.
Very informative & interesting
I love your content I’m new to piano but I just play what you do and try to figure out the rest
For anyone interested in the McCoy dominant sound I would suggest listening to Benito Gonzalez. He has taken McCoys dominant sound even further. He's a great modern pianist following McCoy's footsteps.
Insightful video as always. Thanks Noah!
I love this keyboard
Wow thank you so much - I've wondered about that for a long time - excellent as usual 👍🏼

Thanks man! This gives me so much ideas to work on the piano! Cheers!
You are Amazing Sir Noah!
This is awesome as always...🤗❤
Great lesson, what software program do you use as the note display?
This is 🔥🔥
If I heard something like this at a jazz club I would think, Damn! this guy sounds legit! great job McCoy also did this stuff chromatically because once you do 2 stacked 4th it covers 6 tones and one 4 are played in a row it covers all 12 kind of a cool concept.

dig the content man! just right to the thing. as a continuation of the series you could try on how to comp different kind of tunes using fourths voicings.
This reminds me, when off by only a step, sometimes the sheet sounds good even if you play four flats for four sharps, etc.
Fantastic!! He’s the man
I like the sound of this voicing. It has a cool layed back sound. It sounds like the way a cool jazz musician would talk like if everyone spoke in music instead of words.

Concise and illuminating, thank you Noah 🙏🏽
Hello, I love your content and teaching. Outstanding!!
Excellent content especially on McCoy never seen an entire piano spilt in three
how exactly does the movement to Gb work? So you just go in one direction chromatically and do it the same way right? Anyway, thanks for the video
Oh man, I want this piano so bad I can‘t see straight. I‘ll say anything to get it! But all that aside, I have gotten SO MUCH out of your videos. My practice list has become so big that I spend hours shedding on your material. What‘s gotten me most, lately, are the chord arpeggios. I particularly like the One with the Tritone in the right hand. And the licks are great too. I‘m rather anti lick on the gig, but believe they are good for the learning process. I tend to break them down into rudiments, in the hope that they flow out naturally on the gig, so their not forced. Also the stride vid has been extremely helpful. Thanks!
Great stuff man, I’m interested in trying these things in other modes now, maybe different scales too like harmonic minor, harmonic major, melodic minor, and major

my only question is, how could I tastefully put my own spin on these voicings in context of more contemporary, neo-jazz sounding pieces? it would be great if you did video on how to synthesize the “old” and the “new” in terms of jazz harmony.
Thank you for great explanation. I always wanted to learn this “spicy” left hand voicing
🎹Great video.
