Master Kent u been on a roll lately 💪🔥💪
Yes...I love rolls! Thanks!😊
Put together a trio plus female vocalist project last year. This video is super useful. I love the 1/2 step up idea as that is something I can apply immediately. Thanks for all the work you put into your videos. Super helpful. A video on different methods of “playing outside” would be awesome for guys like me that are maybe intermediate players.
Thanks for the comment. I'm glad to help out. Please check out my latest video about outside playing.
You da MAN Kent! Bye Bye Blackbird was the tune that inspired me to learn music performance when I was only 5. Mom took me to see my first live band then. A huge lady got up with her accordion and belted out the song to a large audience of ballroom dancers and they were instantly transformed into rhythmic motion. I was astonished! The POWER she had with them led me to where I am today at age 74, still playing it. That it was composed in 1928 doesn't matter...modern audiences still dig it! Your interpretation gave me new insights about what can be done without repeating anything, especially in the improv section. Your technique is masterful, but what I like most is your style of teaching which includes important concepts that apply to any performance! Kudos!!
Very cool, brother! You lived it...that's authentic knowledge. I'm glad to pass it on to others that will dig it, like you. Swing on!
Excellent topic - I'm surprised more online channels haven't addressed specifics of playing in a jazz piano trio including how to state the head, intro/outro, comping, fours, listening to each other etc. Love the content and quality of your channel!
Thanks so much for telling me...very helpful!
Great trio advice thank you!
You're so welcome!
Que tremendo maestro es mister Ken! Mis respetos desde Guatemala. Siempre fiel seguidor desde antes de la pandemia!
You make such a beautiful harmonies.
Thank you so much!
You always sound like you're having FUN, KH!! 👍🎵🎶🎹 I know that it's always fun for me to hear you!! ❣ XOXO - M
I try to have fun...even though a lot of prep and work goes into these videos. Rewarding when I hear from you, Marilyn!
Fantastic, so much variety in your playing. Very inspiring...think I will get your book.
Thanks Kent
Fantastic, thanks! Here's a video on the inside of my book:

Hello Kent, I purchased your Jazz Book. Looks like a lot of good material for me to work on. Thank you.
Is there any way I can purchase really good backing tracks to go along with the tunes in the book, or any tunes for that matter? I think this would greatly enhance the learning curve and boost the excitement of repetition. I often hear you guys using backing tracks...I would gladly pay them. Anyway, just an after thought. Thank You Kent.@@KentHewittpiano88
Great
Thanks!
Great tutorial! So valuable. Is there a video where you show how to do the chord-melody thing at 11:54?
By the way still enjoying the book. Up to pg. 75. I am getting better but I'm also mortal so trying to balance my expectations 😅
Thanks for telling me...very helpful to me!
