    this is the best piano tutorial i’ve come across on yt so far, i’ve been playing piano for years and have seen a huge improvement in my improvisation for the past few hours just playing with the melodic cell concept you introduced. can’t wait to try the harmonic cells

    How do you come up with chord progressions? Like how do you know that Ebmaj7, Em11, Am11, and Abmaj7 are compatible with each other?(not sounding awkward I guess) I can do extensions and play chords, but when I am trying to improvise from scratch- in jazz especially- and I'm trying to come up with progressions, I often have no idea which chord to play next. I hope it makes sense, and it'd be awesome if you would provide an explanation.

  • @grantholland421
    @grantholland421 3 роки тому +2

    Noah,..these are great ideas. You are going beyond "improvising melody" to "improvising progressions". But your 'harmonic permutations' technique gives up something very dear also - the tension-release coherence that functional harmony gives you - which is substantial. But you could reclaim that by integrating some functional considerations within your harmonic permutations technique. Does your teaching get into things like that?

    • @NoahKellman
      @NoahKellman  3 роки тому +1

      Hey Grant, as a matter of fact it does. In the course itself I talk about this more- i.e. how to structure strong progressions from the start. You make a very good point and I'm glad you thought of this!

    Came across this video a year after it was made (video still awesome nonetheless); however, I have a question for you: do Harmonic Cells have to be fifths? The reason I ask is because you used two "fifth-spaced" chords to do your improv... I am just wondering if one could do this exercise with fourths or even thirds... just curious... (excuse my musical terminology if it is not correct🤦🏿)

    I just don't understand how he casually just "let us add a Eflat maj and A flat maj 7th chord". I need someone to explain to me why those arrangements sound so good...Is it because of the circle of fifths?

    • @NoahKellman
      @NoahKellman  3 роки тому +1

      Hey good question- I think of chords inside of a progression as either transition chords or landing chords. Transition chords can really be almost anything and lie between landing chords, but the landing chords tend to be chords that are innately resolved like Major or Minor chords (as opposed to a sus or dominant chord which wants to resolve). You want to fall on a landing chord either at the beginning or end of the progression. But, beyond that, the whole point is that you don’t have to have a crazy amount of theory here- you can break progressions down into these small two-chord cells and build up from there!

      French also please... almost 800 million people speak French in the world. It would also make it possible to focus on the piano. I can understand English but not instantly ... I have to take a break .... Too bad, because it becomes complicated to focus on the music when you have to constantly translate in your head..

    I have been in music for over 50 years as a musician, composer, singer, you name it I've done it. In all the years I have never heard anyone use the word "Reharm". In fact it sounds very negative. Like you harmed the harmony again and again. Like you don't know the structure of the chords and you are using the incorrect chord. The word is "Reharmonize" You would look intelligent if you used the correct terminology. I realize people are always trying to create new words but that one word harms music in many ways. Of course if you want to say it Ghetto like. You definitely used the word correctly.

    • @NoahKellman
      @NoahKellman  3 роки тому +12

      Hey Jesse, I understand where you’re coming from, but I’ve heard the word reharmonize shortened to reharm many times by many people and obviously I don’t mean anything bad by it- it’s literally just a shortening of the term reharmonize. In my mind it’s like saying they’re instead of they are. There’s no correct or incorrect, just a shorter version. That’s just my opinion though!
