Bro, I’ve been watching piano tutorials videos for 10+ years and this is one of the best/ most needed tutorials I’ve seen on UA-cam in a long while. And you just started on UA-cam?? Awesome work bro. Very inspiring.
I agree. This is a keeper vid because it explains what I've been doing most of my life as a pianist. I never these things had names or methods. Well done.
This is a really deep lesson. I've been playing for 30 years and I'm almost struggling to keep up with your language without hitting the replay button. Good stuff and different way to think about stuff.
THIS VIDEO IS SO GOOD- YOU WASTED ZERO TIME GETTING STARTED AND IM SO HAPPY FOR IT- AND THE INFO IS WELL THOUGHT OUT AND ELEGANTLY EXPLAINED- yea i smashed that subscribe button instantly
Wow!! The left hand in jazz piano has been a bit of a mystery to me, finally a video that gives a thorough and understandable introduction! Also knowing the techniques are coming from bud powell, Monk etc. gives it a lot more credibility than someone just Throwing voicings at you, great work!! You are well deserved of my first yt comment in ten years haha
buddy, Ive been watching A LOT of videos on jazz piano, and this one, I can tell you my bro, it's making my mind expanse in a exponential way, THANK YOU for this invaluable information, I feel really thankfull piano sauce🙏 .
That's the knowledge I was looking for 20years ago when starting piano! Made a bit of my own stuff then, but your video is a good check-list for the things I did good or wrong..! Thank you ! ( Subscribed ;) )
I'm a classical trained pianist and i like jazz ! i've already studied major and minor all 12 keys 2-5-1's, then 12 major scales and their 7 modes,12 melodic minor scales and their 7 modes,12 harmonic minor scales and their 7 modes ! also 12 whole tone scales,12 blues scales and augmented scales and diminished whole-half/half-whole scales ! I'm using 2-5-1's rootless voicings , root LH/ voicing RH ,then voicing LH/ improvise with my RH ! I've been studying for a whole year ,a lot of work !
Hey Richard, that's awesome, sounds like you're working super hard! Parts of this video are a bit more advanced, I don't expect people to be ready for everything in it, but I wanted to give an overview of what's out there, and hopefully get people excited for all the different things you can do with left hand chords and jazz in general :)
Excellent video. Hope you are inspired to do more. The video is packed with great information and there are plenty of skilled musicians out there hungry for consolidated and massive high-end content. I will save this video as a favorite video and will utilize it for referencing. Please continue to make similar videos and then time stamp or split them into smaller videos if you feel compelled. If you continue to make videos such as this one, I believe you will acquire an advanced following. Thank you !!!
This is answered Prayer For Me... thank you for sharing your knowledge... unlike other UA-cam teachers they don't share the knowledge that they have. thank you very much God bless you
If a teacher knows anad uses the word "gnarly" in their teaching, I am all ears! ❤ But seriously, this is hands down the best music theory video, right after Jacob Collier's teachings. Keep it up!
Wow, this is such a no-nonsense tutorial full of information. And it's way out of my pay grade. I'm working on triads and my ear for now. I know my limitations, and I know that I made no progress when I tried to think I could play jazz when I couldn't play nursery rhymes. I'll be back, but I have to find my sheep.
Can't you people understand? I have too many youtube subscriptions as it is. But do you listen? No! You talented, brilliant teachers insist on making videos that dovetail perfectly with my progress, giving me ideas on just what kind of techniques I need to weave into my playing. Well then, subscribed. But expect to be cursed when I'm scrolling through my mile-long list of subscriptions!
So incredibly useful and informative. One small correction for your cheatsheet PDF: the last bar of line 1, Bud Powell shells for Co7, should have as its upper voice not an A♭, but an A♮ (and, of course, the ♮ doesn't need to be written in, since we're already in the key of C).
An Amazing place to get so many beautiful Jazz chords without a doubt. A wonderful video packed with so many chords ! Most pianists show these in the key of C. How about showing the BUD Powell Shells, 3 note shells & Tritone Shells in the key of E flat with some popular jazz standards ( E flat key is also used widely in many jazz standards right) if possible. Thanks
Dogs bollocks mate! Love your straight forward style so much useful information packed into a few minutes of content. Thank you for this video gem. Love it. Cheers!!
Wow I just wanted some left hand voicing and oh my did I get way more that that. I guess it’s time to get away from my rooted chords now lol. Amazing video thank you so much, you are sensational
Thank you very much for this great video. The monk shells are awesome! My 2 cents : at 7:35, A is not the 7th of the Bb diminished chord, it is the G. For dominant voicings you write 7th and it is the true role of the note but here A should be named the natural 7th or major 7th. So the voicing for the diminished can be viewed as the standard root position R b3 b5 bb7 but with the bb7 raised a whole step. Also I find the 7b9 substitutions easier to grasp when you realize the chord C7b9 is just C + E dim7 and since E dim7 = Db dim7 = G dim7 = Bb dim7.
Hey man, glad you enjoyed the vid :) Ah yes, mistake at 7:35, whoops. I think of 7ths a little differently to that, and I think my way is easier for students but good to hear another take. I love your 7b9 substitution take! Yes that's a very easy way to see it indeed, I will keep that one in mind. Thanks for your two cents!
Thank you much for all this content and thank you for the notes in pdf! I think, in the pdf file, 3rd row, the Co7 needs a Eb instead of E as a third (the R+3+7 chord)
Glad you're enjoying my videos! If you'd like to be taught by me directly I do teach online lessons, go to my website - pianosauce.com - to book a free consultation. As for doing videos on those two tunes, I haven't thought about doing step by step wakthrough's yet though I may give it a try at some point in the future :)

Thanks man! I've been looking for stuff like this for a long time, so it's nice to see I'm not alone and there's demand for it
I agree. This is a keeper vid because it explains what I've been doing most of my life as a pianist. I never these things had names or methods. Well done.
Even that was an understatement!!!!!! my mind is BLOWN!!! lol
For those with ears this is all they need. Thank you.
This is a really deep lesson. I've been playing for 30 years and I'm almost struggling to keep up with your language without hitting the replay button. Good stuff and different way to think about stuff.
Even if I know most of these, having this reference is amazing, a good refresher and good place to base ideas off
The best tutorial about Jazz piano I've seen so far.
THIS VIDEO IS SO GOOD- YOU WASTED ZERO TIME GETTING STARTED AND IM SO HAPPY FOR IT- AND THE INFO IS WELL THOUGHT OUT AND ELEGANTLY EXPLAINED- yea i smashed that subscribe button instantly

This is also great for beginning jazz guitar players
Thank you much for all this content and thank you for the notes in pdf!
I think, in the pdf file, 3rd row, the Co7 needs a Eb instead of E as a third (the R+3+7 chord)
