This is simply PHENOMENAL! Before this video, I started messing around with this scale, and the chords, then I realized the 7 flat 9 relationship with the diminished chord and said to myself this cannot be...and I watched this video and became convinced of the diminished and 7 flat 9 equivalent resolving to the key. Thanks for your brilliant explanation.
Always an incredible treat when we can get explanations of how to construct the wonderful lush harmonies we’ve heard so many times on recordings! Thank you so much!
The Fdim7 chord has: F, Ab, B D. If you borrow from C6 you add in C, E, G, A. If you borrow from Eb you also get Eb and Bb. As C6, Eb6, F#6 and A6 are all related then you could also borrow from F#6 and A6 which adds F# and C#. Therefore Fdim7 plus the above listed added notes is all 12 notes. So anything seems ok to borrow, in context.
Adam. Still working on the basics of the 6th diminished scale and chords. Noticed that I have to look at chords somewhat differently than how I learned. It’s starting to sink in more and more, thanks to great video instruction like this. Thanks
I've been waiting for this one. I worked through Oliver Prehn's (Newjazz) take on 2-5-1 and I'm becoming much freer and more fluid. I expect to be here for a while. Thanks Adam.
Thank you for showing this. What a great explanation. I started getting curious about this concept because I would tell my teacher how I was making sense of certain changes in my head and he would say, "Barry Harris would agree with you." This way of thinking of chords is mind blowing and simple at the same time.
Best exposition I've watched on the inter webs. Well done. At the very end I was wanting to see an extension of the exercises into an arrangement on a standard...an applied use case. Maybe you have done this? Cheers!
i am very crazy about those lesson i encourage you to keep sending those kinds of lesson because they are very useful to me my name is Fabian Cosster from the lovely island of curacao
Would love to see a video on this with the minor scale. I always thought the relationship between dominants and tonics is felt more with a minor sound. Great video !
In classical music that D diminished chord is called a vii dim 7 chord, so it would be a B dim 7 chord but still a sub for V7 or G7. Such a nice sound. Nice video.
Many thanks, Adam, for this instantly plausible explanation. I am an Oscar Peterson fan as long as I can remember, and this is what he does all the time. On top (or bottom 🙂), he often added grace notes with the left hand to link the chords and embellish the melody, but this is easy, once you have understood the principle. Great! By the way, what piano sound do you use? It is really convincing.
Unbelievable lesson! I attended a few Barry’s workshops here in Rome, Italy and I have to admit you are very clear, maybe even more than Barry himself, at least for me, beginner jazz pianist! Only one question, why borrowing from Eb 6 diminished scale when I can easily borrow then same notes from C parallel minor scale? Thanks ☺️
Awesome thank 😊 🙏 you! Great exercise. The 3 diminished scales truly are the base 3 DNA nucleotides of the piano ! I studied under the late great jazz guitarist Billy Bauer as a kid and am now 44 and been taking a deep dive into piano the last 2 years and i woudlnt be half the player without you guys so grateful. Only following this channel for about 4 months now and I truly appreciate all the hard work yall are putting in I plan to support $ by buying more if not all of the in depth courses asap! I feel terrible I haven't supported sooner but I'm neck deep in opening a new arm of my vacation getaway and music recording biz here in the Colorado. If there is a carrot on the end of the stick to my last ten years of grueling entrepreneuring it's to finally have the time to sit down and benefit from these classes and see how it opens that channel for the spark to become a flame as you so eloquently stated once! Just wanted to say thanks and I super appreciate the huge heart you Peter and the whole team put into this! I'm recommending it to all my friends in the biz keep on swingin!
Does anyone know if the pay site is a comprehensive program? I've paid for three different sites and was disappointed they were just a big archive of videos with no direction about how to follow them.
This expresses my philosophy of a newbie's piano practice: Piano Lessons I have ten fingers. The piano has…really… twelve notes plus octaves therefrom. I tell my fingers each day “land somewhere new.

Dear Adam: your playing, your explanations, the resources... you are the best!
I've been an Open Studio Pro member for almost 2 years now. It's life-changing.
everytime he said you probably already know this, I felt like I was trespassing
Thanks. This was the first time I understood the 6-diminish concept. Very clear explanation.
Me too.
This is simply PHENOMENAL!

I need one or two years to really understand this 20 min video. Life is like that.

Yeah I was wondering about F# and A scales cause we’d get potentially a major 7th on a dominant chord for both of those

Naturally one of my favorite pastimes is hearing from people who would agree with me.
I love Adam’s appropriate “wow” reactions to the extra tasty resolutions
Thanks Adam, this is gold.
Just terrific, Adam. You have a way of making these cool changes so easy and accessible.
Thank you so much for your excellent tutorial, Adam. Best wishes from Taiwan.
no one else hearing the beginning of "on the sunny side of the street"?
mate this is a solid lesson
Excellent info, and top notch production!
Mind opening, so clear and logic
Great Lesson! 4 Note voicing works great with the vibes!!!🥁👍🎹🥁
You play vibes too? Great to see another player not afraid to comp
This is so awesome, Adam. Thank you!
Whoa, amazing lesson.
Incredible lesson! Thanks for sharing in such a clear, accessible way 🙏🏻
Extremely powerful
This is a fantastic video! Thanks for sharing.😊
Thank you for organizing this explanation .. these things sound great !!
Love this! So cool, thank you!
Hope you earn money with that! It's so useful!!! Great job, the videos, the pdf´s!!!! Wow!
This is amazing!!!! 6th Diminished
Thank you so much... I got a better understanding with your video

Explanation @ 4:00 blew my mind again lol music is great

Great stuff Adam.. Just keep teaching, we'll keep learning... Thats a promise :D
Excellent excellent excellent!
Great video!
So by this logic, you could also borrow from A major and F# major right? Because they all share the same diminished chord.
Great video - thank you!
This is GOLD! Thank you 👏🏻
Wow This videos shows all what i need

Same same.
This is brilliant! Thank you!
I love the 6th diminished videos! Will there be a course on uses of the scale on the website?
If I can borrow notes from a scale a minor third apart, applying this logic, can I do the same from A and F# scales?
If you missed it, he mentioned this in a kind of funny aside at 14:41
@@cademosley4886 Yes, right! I missed it, it's clear... Thank You very much!
Thank you.
great great man!
Rock on!
Very nice c6 dim

Note to self: 4:50
Today I learned when you jazz up Three Blind Mice you get Three Blind Cats.
8:00 - I’m gonna go play “The First Noel” a la Barry Harris!
Dear Adam: Could you in theory also borrow from the Gb 6th-diminished and A 6th-diminished scale?
Does anyone know if the pay site is a comprehensive program? I've paid for three different sites and was disappointed they were just a big archive of videos with no direction about how to follow them.
It's the best I've ever used.
It can be used on Xm6 chord?
Where does this Eb6 comes from ?
👍
Check out Stijn Wauters channel with tips re Sonny Clark’s “Blue Minor”. Great stuff that makes you want to practice.
So… jazz is basically entirely based on 6 chords?
No.
Adam is hot someone had to say it
This expresses my philosophy of a newbie's piano practice:
Piano Lessons
I have ten fingers.
The piano has…really…
twelve notes plus octaves therefrom.
I tell my fingers
each day
“land somewhere new. Somewhere
you’ve never been. If it sounds good
then lead me forward. IF it does not.
We go again.
Ten fingers. Twelve notes and octaves.
Fingers: spread yourselves newly. Knuckle middle finger
rise a bit. Good.
Now…listen. OK?
send five left fingers to the lowest octave
teach them where they belong
repeat the patterns repeat the patterns
repeat repeat repeat
bring the fingers back up
then throw them like dice
at the keyboard let them fly
repeat the patterns again
repeat the patterns: over time
my fingers know things, acquire sense and pitch
before my ears know
before my brain knows
my fingers know.
And, strange as it may sound, always listen to your fingers.
Be Bop Three Blind Mice.....you heard it ? right ?
Très joli mais c'est du chinois !!!
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed this
Super helpful, thank you!!
