Thanks so much for all this videos, I studied classic piano and always wanted know how to be able of accompany songs without sound like a dummy, Great job and thank you again
I studied Monk Religiously...Agreed...His Chord voicing were more or less, based on open 5ths and open 7ths in the left hand and he would then play crushed notes, flatted 5ths and some time both alterations in the right hand. Flat and Sharp Extension...That is the basics...but there is a whole lot more to it than that
Hello，I‘'ve read your lesson and also read Mark Levine's . I'm confused about the ImM7 in melodic minor scale, Mark Levine said the chords in melodic minor scale are all the same, so CmMaj7's Monk Voicing should also be [D-Eb-G], which is different in your lesson.
These are included in mark levines jazz piano book...Was wondering if a tune is just in one key center, couldn't you reharminize it first so you can use more "monk" voicings on it?
+Jamie Woolaway Yeah, definitely. Once you start getting into reharmonisation you can more or less do whatever you want and insert new monk voicings from other keys.
Just had posted on the Tracking Angle site my article on the recordings of Monk.
This sounds really fun!

This lesson does NOT cover Thelonious Monk chord voicings very well.

Juston Freeman maybe not
He should have used a Monk tune like "Round Midnight" since that illustrates Monk better than just showing his sort of voicings as this video does.
Just learned a lot!
You left out the sharp 4 or flat 5 which is prominent in "Round Midnight" and which would be used in "How Hight the Moon".
Thank you very much.
+fundorinlive No worries.
Sensacional!!!
love itt!!
You taught me something!!!!!
Interesting stuff!

Hi there, just wondering where in the levine book is this covered? thanks.
Hi, in P147, Mark Levine
Many thanks! Quite a hard book to navigate I found.
Brilliant
very interesting!!!
Interesting.
Those voicings are more like Bill Evans than Monk.
É só eu que tô vendo isso e ñ to entendendo nada pq é inglês kkkkkkk.
Absolutely terrible! Monk is rolling in his grave!
Monk harmonizing is much more complex than this. 🤔
Brrrroooo. Slow down will ya.
Horrible vid
