Tony you should check out "untitled 5" by kendrick lamar. the song is inspired by nardis and gives it a mordern fusion sound, I think you might enjoy it.

[@marchammond9199]

Thank you Tony. This is a fascinating song and one that is also more difficult to understand harmonically. I heard elsewhere that the Neapolitan Minor Scale, as well as Phyrgian Dominant and Double Harmonic Scales explain much of the harmonic structure. I noticed that when you are crafting your right hand lines, your left hand chords seem to follow. Your take on this piece sounds great.

I never noticed the "Jewish sound." Thank you!

[@Chipshotz]

Thanks Tony. I've learned much from your videos and at this point I believe some through osmosis ;-)

And let's not forget:
There's no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye

“Not such a good example” in what respect not good?

[@TonyWinston]

The change from minor to major is very brief. The song is great ,it's just not a great example of the power of switching from minor to major. Some good examples are Beethoven's Moonlight sonata 1st movement and Penny Lane by Beatles

[@thadiusventricle6752]

Sure but there’s so much musical texture and contrast going on with this song (e.g., subtle mood shift from crashing chords to lyrical melodic motifs, middle eastern phrase, the uncharacteristic resolution to the I chord in the first system in bridge, traditional ii,V in the second system in the bridge, Fmaj 7 as opposed to a B7 as a 5 chord and yes the Maj-Min shift). Agreed that it’s not one of the most prominent compositional feature of the song. What do you think about when the maj/min is played simultaneously (e.g., Dahood)? I love that too.

@@thadiusventricle6752 Love Daahoud, and the major-minor thing that is similar to Nardis. Nardis being more unique due to the things you mentioned. Man, I could listen to Clifford Brown all day!

[@thadiusventricle6752]

I played Daahoud every day for 4 years.
Couldn’t let it go.
Think you can give us some of that?
BTW your pianistic technique really makes the music sing. Billy Taylor once told me about a meeting he was called to by Mary Lou Williams. It was a Saturday morning. He got there, it was a Mt. Rushmore of jazz pianists (Bud, Monk, etc) She praised their creativity but chided them on lack of pianistic development. BT said it didn’t apply to him as he studied classical extensively😊. Clifford’s classical technique really sang.
