      Sorry to be off topic but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
      I somehow lost the password. I would love any assistance you can give me.

      @Harlan Wilder thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out now.
      Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

      Warren Doris I signed up to Jonny’s site about 1 month ago and I can confirm that all the lessons are this densely packed with musical knowledge and teaching (I don’t know Jonny, no affiliate link, just a fan of the site!).

      That "sliding" exercise would seem to make a lot more sense for a guitar player than a piano player - unless you plan to play only in the key of C for the rest of your life(!).

    @NevoAlmighty 4 роки тому

    So in 'jazz standards', a shell of root and 3rd can be referred to as a 7th chord (such as the C7, Dm7)? Since we're adding the rest of the notes in the right hand? the band perhaps? I'm just trying to better understand my 'options' for left hand, except doing that boring 1-3-5 any time.
    Thanks for the videos!

    Could be better if you teach in a class format, that i, with students and teacher interactions. Go slow and easy all the way. Teach slowly and speak slowly. Just sharing my views

    When improvising, should I try to stick to the excercise fingering as much as possible? Also presumably there is different fingering for different keys?

  • @MrJamesgibbsIII
    @MrJamesgibbsIII 4 роки тому +1

    This is a great video to help piano students to get much better understanding and feel of 1,6,2,5 chord progressions by using the minor and major blues scale combined. But to master an entire culture of jazz music in just 3 excercises is absurd. So as a fellow professional musician to another, please reconsider the message you're conveying to the people who follow your videos. You definitely do not want to mislead them into thinking 3 chords is all that takes to master an entire culture deep rooted in spiritually, originality and musicality. Great videos though. Keep doing your thing.

    And how can i play in minor chord?

    • @oneeyemonster3262
      @oneeyemonster3262 4 роки тому +1

      it's a SIMPLE concept..Just keep it SIMPLE...
      I, IV, V
      A min........D min.........E min
      A min D dim E7
      A min D7 E7
      A 7 D7 E7
      A Maj........D min E7.
      Ok...you could use this scale ( HUNGARIAN MAJOR)
      Lets just see as a MODE...you can VAMP over all those chords.
      ( mix #2, #4,)..stack it 1, 3, 5 ,b7 or 1, #2, 5, b7 or 1, #2, #4, 6 :-P
      Ok...the Bb chord...
      A Harmonic min b2 , A melodic min b2...or D double harmonic min.
      you'll simply get....Bb Lydian #6, Lydian aug, #6 or Lydian #2, #6.
      if that's not enough...just play Bb Ion #6 ( the maj4 option lmao ).
      In a nut shell...you could play Bb...whatever into A7...
      be it italian, German , French...or Oneyemonsta version.lmao
      Bb Maj7, Bb7, Bb min,maj7 Bbmin7, Bb aug, Bb dim....
      Just play the same concept to the D...maj or D min
      Eb into D min...or Eb whatever...C# dim or augmented into D Maj or min...
      If you see it or hear it as just D whatever COLORS.... be it Maj, min dim.ect
      Then the same for the E chord....play whatever in E min..
      then just play the G# note into A...to get back into the A min or A Major..
      instead on playing G# Acsending into A all the time...DESCENDING into A
      Bb whatever into A...
      it'll be as if you play Bb lydian whatever into A Phrygian
      then simply altering the A phryigan into A phrygian dominant,
      into D major or D min.
      or A Harmonic min b2 is just A phrygian, maj7 ( Bb Lydian, #6)
      Or you could play Full dimished WH/ or WH
      A dorian b2, #4 and A lydian dominant b2 ( both)..
      in a nut shell....A MAJOR or A min...A min7 or A7 or A full diminished if you
      want...
      Just apply it over each CHORD/TONE CENTER

  • @johnayres7302
    @johnayres7302 3 роки тому

    I think this will be really useful but it does trivialize jazz and reduce it to formulae.
    Take a soaring genius like Charlie Parker or John Coltrane...this goes beyond . I think working musicians have to have a 'bag of tricks ' they fall back on a lot of the time, but sometimes they get inspired and surprise themselves and others with spontaneous flights of fancy. That makes it worthwhile.
