One day I swear it’s gonna be a video like “How to trick ANYONE into believing that you are a PIANO PRO” and it is gonna be a 11 hour long video on the basis of music theory.
do not listen to this.blues scales will help you for about two weeks. You need to actually put in the work and learn how to improvise legitimately,if you're in seventh grade this can be helpful but if you want to be a genuinely good piano player take lessons and learn from a professional.
I mean, he basically just explained minor-pentatonic and blues scales in about a minute. Imagine how much theory he could pack into 11 hours of short-form content like this.
Jazz Saxophonist here, the reason the right hand notes will sound good in any order is because they’re blues notes from a series of blue scales that are derived from major scales. It’s a lot of jazz theory but if you memorize all 12 major scales you can pull up a lot of other different sounds. They’ll all sound good no matter what order you play it, but remember to add some different rhythms to spice it up.
As long as you have rhythm, you truly can freehand it, just play it by ear and introduce some variation. Its not magic, just music theory, or more accurately jazz theory.
@@randorando12tbh, just learn tricks, and someday you will realise you can really play piano. I'm being honest. Ofc it's only improvising and composing. To play existing songs, you should learn the notes.
This is generally how music works, I remember when I went from learning other people’s songs on guitar to actually learning theory. Finding a key and playing the scale of that key I was amazed. Especially with pentatonics, it’s so hard to make it sound bad. Obviously there are levels to it, you don’t want it to sound like you’re just playing a scale but that you’re in a state of flow and all these unique combinations of the notes in that scale just appear. It’s not a conscious thought, it just pours out. And the moment that music you’re creating touches someone’s soul…you’ve done it. An unconscious action from you has produced and unconscious emotion within someone else.
Wow, I'm so glad I read this! This sounds like my journey w/the guitar. As a kid, I played trumpet and violin, so I knew how to basically read music. Then, I taught myself guitar, which didn't seem too hard after those other instruments. When I got good at playing 'other people's' music, I took a classical guitar class at school (CC), and learned a tiny bit of theory. Anyway, I just hit a wall. I didn't have anyone to play with and just got sick of playing someone else's stuff and basically stopped playing. One big part of it was that I didn't want to 'sound like someone else', when everyone gets their inspiration from someone else?! Idk... I still play once in awhile, and still get into it while I'm playing, but no progression - nothing new.
i’m not a pianist, but for anyone who doesn’t know, this works in many scenarios. With those four notes, he established a key, and he played a scale along with that key. notes in a scale will always sound good, and the 1st, 3rd, and 5th notes will just about always sound good to hang on.
for all the beginners here, it doesn't trick people into thinking you're better, it just simply make you better, it's called a scale and they are really useful for both improvising and writing edit : why is there like two people trying to type in morse code in the responses 💀💀💀 edit again : HELP I'VE ACCIDENTALLY SUMMONED THE ENTIRE MORSE CODE COMMUNITY
Yeah, might as well go online and just look up scales, and start messing with them. They will sound good together regardless. Ofc unless you have zero sense of rhythm or tempo😅
It usually works, but it does depend on how much musicality you have. I've done this a lot with people and most do fairly well, some excel, but some are 'music dyslexic' and just don't feel it at all. Btw, the guy doing the tutorial actually showed an unnecessarily more difficult way. If you jam on e-flat, instead of a, then you can you can simply just use all the black keys (and later add the blue note). I came up with that, because I actually didn't even play piano.
@@partisancord9643 yeah, but the black keys already are the pentatonic scale, aka the blues scale without the blue note, so you don't even have to look, which keys you need to hit while improvising. To then add the blue note (the 'a' key) is no problem. It's WAY easier than to memorize, which keys are allowed and which not. This way, there is both a physical as well as a visual difference between them.
He taught 100% of non jazz musicians, and 10% of (new) jazz musicians. Totalling about 50% of newer musicians. It's a very normal thing for a beginner to learn and that's where I started in jazz too
I learned this when I asked a friend how to play jazz, he basically told me what you did although slightly diffrent, my SO was impressed, then I actually had to learn keys
The reason why this works is because the melody is part of the pentatonic scale. The pentatonic scale notes don't clash with each other since no two neighboring notes are half a step apart.
Use your thumbs for the left hand notes and use your pinky 4 white keys to the left from your thumb each timeand rock between your pinky for a double time bass moment
This is crazy. My dad taught me this back in the 80s. That’s how I came to love songs like summer time, curella deville , etc ended up having fun making up my own tunes .
