LOL Casio could have spared two keys for your both;)
Noah what is that super thin keyboard that you are playing in this video???
@@SalmanSuhail Hey Salman, that's called a Piano de Voyage! You can check it out at shop.pianodevoyage.com , and also be sure to use code NOAHKPIANO for a discount if you decide to grab one! I also did a full video review if you search for it.
Man you guys play beautifully together!! I wish the rest of the world could work together in Harmony like this🙏
Thanks, Kyle. That's a beautiful thought, appreciate it.
The kind of level you guys are to be able to connect with each other , without preplanning the improv jam at the end is amazing . Music is indeed the rubbing of souls who have dedicated their time and mind to be in the realm of possibility.

He does it again! Wow, what an amazing episode Noah. You’re turning into the modern Marian McPartland!
came here from the short, idk how i missed this one in my sub feed but i know this is gonna be great stuff.
did he sneak in a little 'some day my prince will come' 5:00 ?
26:00 - 'what's your approach then to finding voicings you like and applying them to your playing' THIS SECTION THOUGH.
28:09 - ah, and of course that would lead directly into the content from the aforementioned short that brought me here :)
32:10 - this technique is so cool, and I love how he demonstrates some practical application for using it 33:13 - and he even brings it in while you two are playing together, 51:00 very cool stuff.
marvelous
56:17- such a cool chat about aging and self acceptance at the end too!!
Thanks for the breakdown, Michael! Really glad you enjoyed it.
I missed it too - glad the shirt brought me here
thank you and I love the reference Mr Hancock and the Hanon part three
When he pulls out like someone in love he plays it in A! What a madman. Absolutely love his playing
@@macwellbeef yeah he’s incredible!!
Always look forward to these,thanks Noah,wishing you a Happy,and Healthy New Year!
Thanks, Ed, right back at you!
Great interview! Thanks for what you do.
My pleasure, thanks for the kind words!
WOW this was an amazing watch, I'd love to see more videos like this! (Beautiful duet I'll be thinking about that for a while)
Such a great video, I like all the music philosophies and ideas discussed. Useful to see how to apply Hannon exercises to Jazz technique too. Keep up the great work Noah.
PS: Before UA-cam, I used to always love listening to Marian McPartland Jazz Piano Series too! So glad to hear you are also inspired by her catalogue of radio interviews! And still dip into them from time to time, as great reference material!
4:16 The next level!
Wowwwwww👏👏👏👏👏 BEAUTIFULLLLLL !!! I took a lot of notes 🔥🔥🔥
I love seeing TRUE artists get asked about their technique. After the host complimented Pauls water fall technique, and said he had better work on it for fear of playing crappy, Paul replied with a very modest "me too!" Paul wasn't styling out or anything, he was just diving into his bag of tricks. So much of being a *good* artist is relying on feel, and thus when it's time to do analysis, it can be kind of hard.
Amazing insights as always ! I would really love it if you can have Sullivan fortner or Emmet cohen 🤲🏾✨🤲🏾
Or both!
@NoahKellman I hope you are considering inviting gospel pianists as well. It will be cool to have them on a few episodes
This is fantastic Noah
The Cornish Family putting on for Houston
You guys KILL playing together. For someone who doesn’t play Jazz, can u explain the unspoken rules of jamming.
Thanks! In this case, it was somewhat unspoken that someone would take the melody and someone would be more of an accompanist. We rotate between these roles depending on who is playing the melody and who is soloing!
beautiful playing from both; pauls work with LC really was hard not to notice
Thank you 🙏
Todavía lo no vi pero ya puse like porque se que va a estar bueno! jaaa gracias Noah
Gracias Nacho! Ojalá que cuando lo veas, te gusta! Y lo siento mi español está un poco “rusty”
I almost picked up one of those casios at guitar center about a year and a half ago. Fine instruments. They rival (beat IMO) the guitar center store brand.
Have seen Thumpasaurus live thrice now, and always make a point to post up right in front of Paul. He’s a huge influence in my playing style. this whole video was excellent
Very interesting
What is the smaller keys that you play? They look very portable and sound good.
Which keyboards are those? Both!
Hey Noah, I have a question. What do you think of the Casios 7000? How is it compared to 6000?
And one more question if you dont mind.. How is the piano sounds in 6000 compared to Keyscape?
Hey Tom, they're both really great experiences to play. I will say that there are a couple piano sounds in the 7000 that I wish the 6000 had, so given the option between the two I would choose the 7000. In terms of comparison to Keyscape, it's interesting to compare. Keyscape sounds really great, but my one complain about Keyscape is I don't totally love how it reacts to my playing, like I feel the slightest delay in reactivity. The sounds in the Casios are highly-reactive (as they should be imo!). But the nice thing is, it's always possible to use a sample library regardless.
@@NoahKellman I understand, it isn’t as responsive to your touch as the Casio is. Is it the old school piano sounds “80’s pop” or something that was the one you liked from 7000? I feel like the Casios are way ahead of the other brands like Korg, Yamaha, Roland etc. with design, price and slimness.
Scientific rendition
Is he Phil Cornish brother?
"You can see the keyboard and know what notes are going to fit."
What's the name of the first tune played? Thanks!
Also want to know. Sounded a bit like my funny valentine, but the theme is not fully there
Did you happen to see the most beautiful girl in the world? All the things you are/mesh!
It sounds like a combination of standards, but the main one that he settles into is one I know, but its name escapes me.
Con Alma by Dizzy Gillespie
I'm hearing 1. The Most Beautiful Girl In The World 2. Con Alma 3. All The Things You Are. 🤔
you're not the brother of Phil are you?
I am!
Great content, but, uh, let's maybe never describe a voicing as "delicious".
