      imho handing a jazz score to a musician to get him to jazz is bad teaching. If you want to get the student to jazz you should make him listen to the thing before playing it. Of course when you're playing in an ensemble and in many other situations you will have to play jazz tunes without hearing them before but teaching tradition in jazz should always start by listening. If you just hand out the sheet music to the people, you're not teaching the jazz tradition but an overly simplified and soulless version of what anyone would actually play

    There's great irony with 1:43. Chopin, Beethoven, Schumann, all of the 'great pianists' were also great improvisers. Chopin's improvisations were mindblowingly complicated. This is a skill nearly completely lost to modern pianists. Even I (outside of jazz), don't have much interest in improvising an entire classical style work.

      Yup :)) it stems back even further (and even more impressively) into the baroque era, where it wasn’t uncommon for the best to improvise fugues which is ridiculously hard (most people these days can’t even write a fugue given all the time in the world)!

      I think you have to differenciate between a pianist/interpreter/performer and a composer. A pianist isn’t nessecarily a composer (and vice versa). Nowadays, compared to the times of Beethoven or Chopin, there is a much greater importance of the performance/interpretation of a piece as its own, complex art. Still, many pianists I know do compose or improvise, and to a certain extend you do learn basic theory for that in music school as well.

    Many years ago, I sponsored a week-long jazz mini-course at my school. (I played drums.) One of the students involved was a professional classical pianist, far and away the most accomplished musician of the bunch. She just could not improvise. A senior who was the project's musical director-now a three-time Grammy-nominated instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer-ended up writing charts for her solos, which she played beautifully. They sounded completely improvised, but could not have been less so.

      i find this so interesting how some beginners are essentially more 'skilled' at improvising than classically trained musicians just because they don't know how many 'rules' they are breaking by just playing whatever they want. they play what they feel like playing which is great. but both skills are really important.

      There's like seven different ways to write it, equally valid for performance purposes. G-∆7 is a pretty common one. The 9th is implied in a minor chord a lot of the time. Especially if the melody note is the 9th, that piece of info will be omitted because your voicing doesn't need to cover it during the head, and you might not want to voice it that way every time through.

      Jazz Pianist here.
      I believe human cannot focus on 4 things at a time, and can't even do 2. The reason we can play piano in the first place is not because we can think about multiple things in the same time, it's rather because we learnt to use muscle memory to off load our thoughts, therefore, we can treat multiple things as one thing, or even nothing.
      The main challenge for classical musician to play Jazz is that the muscle memory they relied on didn't train to recall different memory spontaneously.
      It's not true that we focus on multiple things at the same time. We learnt to play different component like chord shapes, Bass lines, melodic lines, scales, arpeggio as part of the muscle memory. So when we read chord charts they trigger our brain to recall the appropriate muscle memories for the chords. If without chord charts, we just go straight into the muscle memory without the triggering part. Both can combine a little conscious decision to make it more spontaneous.
      The more components we learn, the more option we get. The more option we get, the easier we can play them, because it'll feel like we have more safety net to fall into.
      Many Jazz musician often expressed " feels like playing anything would sound right".

You get a little handicap basically if you've already had experience, but the actual game is altered against your favor. For me, jazz as a classical musician is like rewiring your head with extra components and those components start off difficult to get the hang of, but eventually when it does work right, is great. I have to admit, sometimes it gets oddly addicting to mix some kind of jazz into compositions, even if it is for a tiny bit.

    Lifetime classical musician here...and i think ..no ...i am convinced tht JAZZ is magical!! i wish i had learned it as much as i had classical piano...and though i just dabble in it for myself...apart from those rare times over my decades having to be ''egged on" by JAZZ musician friends...once even actually begged by a composer jazz friend to just "DIVE RIGHT IN" as avantgarde pianist for his "one act jazz opera" with his HUGE jazz band...for his master's in jazz and composition recital...(manhattan) ...i am certainly NOT a jazz muscian...but i have dreamed of at least seriously learning "how to" ..even in my senior years now...CLASSICAL MUSIC is GREAT and enormous...but JAZZ is truly a gift for any musician and listeners to LIVE in ...BRAVO for this short BUT meaningful video. ! and BRAVO to ALL jazz musicians...you all deserve the warmest appreciation frm EVERY musician of ANY genre. my favorite jazz pianist happen to be oscar peterson,...but there are many others...who afre GIANTS of MUSIC...classical OR jazz...just GIANTS of music!!!

      @angelodesouzaa Sou Português, as novelas da Globo eram muito populares aqui, sobretudo desde 1975 até ao final dos anos 90, início dos anos 2000 ("Gabriela" e "Roque Santeiro" foram êxitos COLOSSAIS aqui). Entretanto, no início dos anos 90, eu cansei-me do formato e deixei de ver [assistir] novelas. Mas conheço todos esses grandes artistas da Globo desses tempos mais antigos.
      As últimas novelas que acompanhei com atenção desde o início ao final foram "Pantanal" (versão original (Bandeirantes?) e "Renascer". A novela mais recente que vi foram os últimos 2/3 (ou 3/4) de "Avenida Brasil" (a Adriana Esteves é grande!).

    • @jorymil
      @jorymil Місяць тому

      Both the same thing: Eb G (Bb maybe) D A. You usually see it as Eb∆#11, or maybe Ebmaj#11, or Ebmaj7#11, or Eb∆7#11... you start to get the idea. Jamey Aebersold's books are a great way to see all the different names for the _same_ _damn_ _thing_. But it's a rough guide, and is somewhat instrument-specific: the bass player might cover the root, and the pianist might omit the root and the 5th, might add a 13 (C) in there instead of the major 7, might omit the 3rd. All different sounds; the horn player could still play an Eb lydian scale over the whole thing, or might sort of noodle around the chord tones, or maybe just stick with and Eb major triad. Just different sounds depending on how the group reacts. And everyone's coming up with new ways to think about this stuff and practice it. Triad pairs, hinging, substitute scales, playing "out" (polyphony), blues licks, harmonic major scales, it's all fair game if it sounds good.

    When you play jazz you can’t do so from having a good memory copying, you have to be able to bring your mastery on the fly and play all sorts of different timings, dynamics incongruous congruous music whilst music to the ear. You have to be well down with all polyphonic to the point it’s like alien. I find jazz more challenging than classical and has given me more control in my classical playing.😊

    Rarely do people know that back in the day, classical pianist would actually do lots of improv during their concerts and were really good at it! I laughed too hard at the chords. TRUE. Your not a classical musician if you can play chords. This whole thing killed me and I can completely relate but this teaches us though that we should expand our horizons :)

    Bruh, I am DEAD 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 As a classically trained musician with a musical theatre degree, turned commercial and jazz musician, I feel your pain SO HARD! Don't get me wrong, I love singing it all but turning to the commercial and jazz world to attain my dream job has been more of a struggle than I realized...still struggling and learning, but it really has allowed for a wider appreciation for what goes into each style :)
    But also love how you referred to it as a "piece" as a classical musician but as a 'tune" or something similar as the jazz musician...I don't know if that was on purpose, but lets' be real, that's exactly the vernacular they use in real life!
    That said...Autumn Leaves is a JAM, and it's THE song that has taught me the most about jazz, and I continue to use it as a learning tool for progressions and scat improv! I remember when I asked for the Real Book for my birthday a few years ago, my parents ended up getting it for me, they saw inside and went "What the hell is this??" 😆 Heck, I still didn't know at the time if I'm honest!
