    You know, I have been watching youtube videos about music for the last ten years...a lot of them are good teachers actually but for some reason my development didn't seem to manifest. It is only this year when i first watched Adam and Peter (i think in May) that got me hooked on watching...and listening (number 1 rule!) ...and it really helped me tons and changed the way i viewed about music and playing...got rid of my bad habits in playing...not yet there though but working on it. I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you Adam and Peter...you are my heroes...and i mean that with the greatest amount of sincerity!! May you guys and everyone in Open Studio have a very happy new year!!!

      ​@@andrewcrocker-harris4830I strongly disagree. I find their videos double the length with a quarter of the content of the better ones out there, mostly because they do these needless long practices of exercises, along with extremely corny jokes and preachy advice. Far more useful content is packed into the videos of Jeremy Siskind, Noah Kellman, Isaac Raz, Shan (JazzSkills), Tony Winston, and Greg Spiro (pianoweekly), to name a few, and without the constant infomercial-style hype you get here.

    I am an open studio member and have been playing piano for 2.5 years now. As I was watching this video last night it was the first time I feel like I was watching one of these videos and I was actually understanding what was going on on the music theory side of things and how the chords were organized. As a percussionist with preconceived fears of learning theory between the courses, your youtube videos, and the podcast I have been converted!!!

  • @maestro2033
    @maestro2033 9 місяців тому

    After playing the piano all these years this is fun and it is stretching my ear and coordination to the max at a slow speed because even though I know my major, minor, augmented, and diminished triads, this is the first time I’m using them differently and in combination together over different chords and putting together different shapes. Sounds Beautiful keep up the good work.

    It feels like 'how to choose' triad pairs is starting to make sense.

    Thanks for sharing 🙏

  • @BrianMegilligan
    @BrianMegilligan 4 роки тому +4

    Adam, the content you provide is so great. Thank you! If I had a complaint is that there's so little time between each guided practice session to integrate what I learn from the previous ones into all the keys! (I never really make it, just the more common ones, honestly). But seriously. Thank you for putting this together. I have learned so much from this and I have been playing for 40 years and hold a masters in music theory! :)

  • @skimanization
    @skimanization 3 роки тому +2

    Hey man this is great lesson, you know I'm a saxophonist who's always trying to play jazz piano, I can play a little bit of basic blues chords accompaniment but I always struggled to play something interesting in my right hand when I try to solo, I just had no idea how to manoeuvre around the keyboard except scale but now after watching this video I find myself being liberated steadily. I'll keep on practising and later join your school 'cause you are great teacher who is patient and your way of teaching is super. Thanks.

  • @rongibbs390
    @rongibbs390 Рік тому

    Thanks, Adam. I’m fascinated by triad pairs, but struggling to incorporate them into my solos. This is the best lesson on actually applying them in practice. A blues is a really useful application. I really like that you went systematically from how to practice through to how to make it musical and creative. As a saxophonist, I’ll definitely be working on this on both piano and sax.

    I noticed a relationship with the "Triad Pairs" and the diminished scale depending on how you articulate the movement (it's got that dimished sound and feel).

  • @ewoid64
    @ewoid64 9 місяців тому

    I'm coming at this with only a basic understanding of these ideas, so please excuse the basic question. Is the idea to use triads that are "diatonic," (if that's the right word in this context) to the scale implied by the chord? And would that be any of those triads? And are they always a step apart? And how do you choose which pair to use? Any help here would be appreciated.

    looking at the C7Alt Dom. the 6 notes of the 2 chords, Gb and Ab are all in the Db maj scale..Only, note F, is skipped (which is a blessing because it would clash with the 3rd of C7 bottom, E Nat. So, why not simply use the scale a half step above the chord name, (avoiding its 3rd degree)? IE. G7Alt, play Ab Maj scale (no C), Bb7Alt, play B Maj scale (no D#), Eb7Alt, use E Maj (no G#) scale, etc.. No ?
    But I suppose doing it chordally, the way you show, avoids having to always think what the eliminated scale note IS.
    I like how you play and what you do, allot, and your positive happy approach..

    Open Studio is the best! Unfortunately: In order to learn I need to fully understand. But I can't understand matters unexplained or contradictory. Why isn't it A5# or at least C# on the B7? It's F7alt. (B7#11, the IV of F# melodic minor ) there, right? Did I miss something? It ought to be B Lydian Dominant (mixo#11) resolving into Bb7, I reckon...

    • @MarkInLA
      @MarkInLA Рік тому

      Simply because those 2 chords carry all the alterations of a C7: Ab=b6 or aug 5, C=root, Eb= +9, then, Gb=b5 or sharp 11, Bb=7th, Db=flat 9...Other than questions of chromatic stuff in between, these are all the 'outside' changes/alterations of a 3 note (C,E,Bb) C7 chord, on the bottom.. (But do see my post above)...
