finally a not boring way of voicing a ii-V-I thank you
I like how you deviate from 'common wisdom' that chords should generally be voiced with root (in left hand) followed by 3-7 or 7-3 shells and then extensions- and with few or no repeating tones. Very refreshing and liberating to be given 'permission' to do this and create beautiful sounds!
Great video! A good example of how good voice leading can make chords work that wouldn't work on their own
Very good content! It makes me feel like I want to add my 2 cents to the discussion. In a tonal situation (ii-V-I) repeated notes do less damage when in the higher register (right hand). Fifth and roots on top of the voicings will fit nicely into harmonic series of fundamental and create a well-rounded sound that works well when the melody resting on the fifth and the roots. Rootless economy voicings usually work well on a piano when LH comping is required for soloing, on guitar with the limited note choice, and for a small combo with the horn section. The exception is half-diminished and diminished chords - roots often used here even then mimicking rootless shapes. Modal voicings it´s a different story. Even the I of ii-V-I can be seen as a modal tonic with heavier use of roots and fifth in the lower register.
I don't like the sounds of 13s and 9s jazz. But, you're still an awesome teacher.
i’m glad i can keep up with your videos now 🔥
So much information, smooth, polished, logical; a masterful lesson.
Awesome! Melodic voicing, thanks for sharing

Lovely 🤧you a beast
GREAT STUFF as always!!
Thanks Kristof glad you’re enjoying it!
Just what I needed bro, keep it up!
I’m glad- you know I will 🙏
Great stuff! It's very hard to practice in all twelve tones, but it's the best way to understand jazz harmony and develop full confidence with the instrument. Also, ear gets way better at listening changes and building melodic ideas for improvisation. Thank you!
My pleasure!
@Alejandro Gjezi thanks for the advice!!
Thx Noah, excellent tips!!

Thanks! New video next week
Really help, TKS
You're welcome!
Your channel is really great !
Thanks, appreciate it!
Saaa - voy!
Hi Noah, fantastic content as ever. I notice you often use the b9 in your 13th voicings, and also the #11. I love the sound. Taking me a while to get it under my fingers tho. Is that to be expected?
So, is there anything you'd add to that Bb13b9 to make it a full 2-5-1? I imagine a good exercise would be for me just to get a voicing I like that comes before it
awesome v video, I like it. Which camera gear do you use and which lenses ?
Awesome stuff. I need to learn more keys. Still too much of a newb
Nice one
Thanks, Anicet 🙏

Killer content :)
Thanks, Vinny 🙏
is that Dm7 with the 5 on top a 'Kind of Blue' Voicing ?
I honestly think the sound of the chord is 50% the color tones and 50% the actual structure, maybe that's why it sounds awesome even though it has repeated notes in it. Nice vid btw. Cheers !
Agreed, Hernán. Thanks for watching!
How do you not have a million subscribers?
Hey Noah, I now feel free to repeat notes. Thank you, Noah! Fr. Will in VA
Yes, it no longer feels like a sin! Thanks Noah! 🙂
...but Noah, in the G7 chord, how do you have an F#? It wouldn't be dominant then
Hey so that's because this isn't really a G7-- it's a passing chord which happens in place of the G7. Sorry if that wasn't clear! You would never use this chord as a stand-alone G7 chord.
@@NoahKellman ohhh ok, gotcha
👊🏾
Bb13 b9 the right hand plays a G triad first inversion correct?
Exactly!
@@NoahKellman thanks Noah i love your lessons....take care.
Isn't that first progression(the Bb7 to Eb) an illustration of plagal cadence?
Oh man, my classical theory is rusty, but I think it’s a perfect cadence (V-I). Plagal would be IV-I, so Ab-Eb in this case
so for the 251, it's basically a chromatic "So What" progression.
Yeah exactly!
@@NoahKellman I love it!
Noah Kellman is an excellent pianist & teacher.but the pioneer in jazz piano instruction was. John Mehegan .John's instruction books written more than 50 years ago are still valid. It's a shame that his name seems to be forgotten
Loved It,,, awesome...t y s m.
Could you tell me how you can make the notes in green appear in your tutorial?
