I absolutely love the way this was structured - it went from "Oh, I can do that..." to "Oh, I can probably do that..." to "I better go practice that..." Brilliantly done.
I've learned more about theory - in a way that I can actually use it - from watching your videos for the last year or so, than I have in the last 20 years. At least.
I second that. These videos make it all click.
I hope to be able to see that one day
Totally true for me aswell
Exactly the same for me. I am French, my english is ok enough to follow OpenStudioJazz lessons, I just learn more in a few months so far than 15 years before
That's horrible 😢😂🎉
I love how you’ve broken down what sounds immensely complicated into bite sized pieces to make it understandable and something I can go off and explore. Thanks!🙏
A! Thank you.....I only have 9 Months of Piano from 50 years...I was in HS!! Yet watching you and Bob bring some Confidence! And Listening is JAZZ....playing as a Team! Keep on! Adam
I love how Adams sheer joy and love of music comes through and how thoroughly inspiring teh lessons are as a aresult
This lesson immediately places one into wanting to go back and review my own songs to see where the harmonies would have been greatly improved! 🎯♥️🎉🔥🤯💯👑
Absolutely love Adam's delivery of theory in this Guided Practice session.
This is the best video I have ever seen for "accompanying a singer", and it wasn't even meant for that purpose. Fabulous. I think Adam should do a video for Accompanying a singer. I don't think he has done one before.
Incredible video! This broke down a wall for me. Been stuck for a while doing the same stuff. Thank you!!
Yeah that was great! Thanks for being so generous with your time and energy 🙏
7 minutes in, and I already love this!! From Spain, btw.
Adam, you are a master and these videos are gems. Thanks a lot for this its incredibly insightful
YOU are an excellent TEACHER!! Thanks for all of your help.
This is so Great, please Never stop!
Ouuuh ! I love that Lesson simple, Brilliant and great sounding...
Wonderful! Thank you, Adam. You presented this material so clearly. Very grateful for your help!
This is amazing! I’m gonna come back to this as soon as I can but I just wanted to say how great this is that your offering these live lessons
all I can say is thank you! You are by far the best tutors around here, loved the format of this live course!
That was a wonderful video, Adam. As others have already said, that took my understanding several big steps forward. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the session, Adam! And, Drum Genius is too cool!
Wonderful harmony lesson Adam ! Thanks for sharing !
Everything in a nutshell! Beautifully explained, delivered, demonstrated ... so we can do it ourselves! THANKS!
Thanks Adam! Mind blowing
Really wonderful lesson! It’s helping to pull it all together. Thank you!
Adam, great session - thank you so much!
Man I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm soaking in the content
Not usually one to comment on you tube but really amazing lesson. Learnt so much listening to you and Peter for the past couple of years and this managed to solidify so much of it into 40 mins. Thanks.
Suuuweeeett! Thank you Adam. Love what you guys are doing!
Fantastic lesson
excellent concept for a deep dive lesson. Thanks a million
Great lesson , thankyou so much 🙂
Fantastic goldmine here, thank you! Indeed, the "moo" voicing is typically referred to in CCM and gospel circles as just a "drop 2" though I've learned from your lessons on drop x chords there's much more to the story in jazz. In any case, I can't wait to put some of this to use in church tomorrow!
Great video man. I’m a guitarist studying theory and it’s fun and informative playing with you
I love this- I wish I had a better sense of the voicings used. Sometimes voicings are broken down like in the pretty shell chord voicing video.
Love this! Learning so much!
It sound crazy ✨Thank you SO much 💚
Adammmmmmm!!!!! So good man! Thank you as always!!!
Two words, Gold Mine🙏
Brilliant lesson Adam. Top man!
Hello from Gastonia North Carolina😊
Super great !! Thanx a lot for this one❤😄✌️💪
Awesome lesson
Great lesson
Just beautiful. The last n7 exemple with Eb "muu chord" break the bank 🤘 38:18
Loving this lesson
I wnjoyed this and learned something.
You're awesome.. and we all fall in love with you sir.. thank you so much
Adam.....hahaha.....love it bro!!! You can tell you love what you do.
I simply love 😘 the vibe. 👍
So inspiring!
After the moo chord I was a little stuck in ambiguous tonality trying to follow along, maybe just my tastes need catching up. But then the modal interchange part solidified the vibe and WOW...just WOW thank you for this lesson!
❤ I love this Thanks!!!
Very cool! Thank you!!!
You're genuinely such an inspiring teacher!
As a musician with other-than-jazz origins, I've never used the bVI bVII quite like this before! I usually devolve back into either the cliché Picardy thing or just a VI-VII-i in the parallel minor key.
(Please excuse any potentially odd semantics or improperly labeled chords, I'm still learning and not trying to show off haha)
Thanks!
Thank you!
Great stuff!!!
Quite informative and interesting
Hi) nice to see you🎉😊
Wonderful lesson! Would be great to have a lesson on how to play those in between notes/melodies off the chords !
Just perfect lesson !... I learn so much from this channel 🤯
Could you possibly make a lesson about rythmic ? 😊
Brilliant!
Great stuff
I could listen to this vamp all dam day! 💙
Very good
Great class! Thank you, Adam!
More and more Open Studio clips have been showing up in my yT feed which is good. Earlier yesterday I went to the website for the first time and posted some questions in a note on the website, like at 7 pm. Saturday. Then I woke up at 2 am Sunday and this class was in my feed completely relevant to what I asked 7 hours ago. (The AI mass surveillance state did something useful for once in its wretched life. Scary world but appreciated in this instance.)
Which “Style” did you choose in “Drum-genius”?
Thank you Adam, that was brilliantly put together again.
All the best Ray

@@emeka121Thank you 😊
this is gold
brillant!!!
Does that cardigan work with that tee-shirt? The message seems to challenge all you're saying.
Marvelous instruction and exercises! So many inspirational ideas!
As I listen through again it occurs to me that someone could improvise over these exercises with another instrument, like a sax or a muted trumpet. Not to mention putting improvised bass parts to go with every one of these variations. Loving it! 😊
I love it.
Hey Adam, can you please do a GPS on how to make the "basic" stuff sound good, like what you do at the beginning 11:30 -> 12:30? It's just the starting point and sounds amazing but as a beginner I'm already lost lol.
I definitely missed this class in OSP.
incredible
Incredible, simply IN CRE DI BLE
Not to seem ungrateful but I’d gladly pay for transcriptions of these live GPS sessions. Not that I can’t go through them and pick out these moves by ear with help from the overhead cam, but I just feel like there’s so many little tasty passing notes that I’d love to learn it all 😮💨
awesome again again
so, do the Moo Two Drop 2, got it! Love this short clip but can't seem to find the 480-minute version with all the other keys, may have to work it out on my own :D - and thanks for the opening piano yoga!
Txs! Now I have at least 1 year of practice in front of me!
Dig it!
Beautiful, thank you , please one question,what are those other chords and melody you added on the one chord ?
yes!
Smooth🎉🎉🎉
This lesson is so rich!! How would you call (degrees function) that Eb sus you tried at the end?
I got an ad as soon as you said listen to your surroundings. I would call the chord at 29:10 a Bb11 rather than Bb7(sus4).
The second bar looks live a III- VI-II-V-I. If I move the bass to chord tones, I get a lot of colours.
Nice! Figuring out how to solo in that way… so every dominant is a key change. It s weird that you walk the circle of fifths but for scales used on those chords it does not follow the same way on the circle.
Now I get why the circle of fiths is so important!
May the tritone subs be ever in your favor
I’m assuming you can also do this going from the Fmaj7 back to the C right?
0:59 all that is is a ii V I in F Major to get to the IV chord in C Major. The original groove you're implying is simply a "1 - 4" chord progression in C Major.
Wow, I was practicing chromatic scales just yesterday. Why do you use 1-2-1-2-3 fingering? I was taught to do it this way (as a classical piano student), but have read 1-2-1-2 allows you to go faster. What are your thoughts on this?
All this is great but what interest me is all those little fills and transitions Adam does between the chords, where do i learn that ?
Practice and facility with your instrument. Pulsing, trills, slips, scalar melodies, arps, etc.
Damn, your fingers are dancing.. how do one learn how to play this smoothly?... 😍
Maybe in minor shift to relative major chords, Cmin7 -> Ebj7 , II step would be Fmin7 or F(2)/ A. ? haha ?!
this is what Internet was invented for... fantastic session.
This is all about major I - IV. But what about minor I IV ? I am not a music theory specialist, but for example Cm7 , the II would be a Dmin7b5 chord, where to put now the logic in movements etc. ? Just give me a hint. I am a guitarist, have little knowledge about "correct" piano voicing.
I don't understand why do you use the Ab maj7 ? How is that a modal interchange ? 🤔
Really useful! Gonna go off on ”How great is our God” now
😢🔥
