    This is everything that I kinda suspected the pianist was doing, but having it confirmed in plain, straightforward teaching is mind-blowing. Great content.

    Adam, your instruction is so valuable. It just helps connects all the dots in a beautiful way. I was practicing All Of Me the other day and I was just feeling like the A sections felt off. A little corny or on the nose... and I couldn't figure out why. I just listened to your podcast about diatonic chords and the concept of using the Harmonic minor scale for going to minor places really just lined something up in my brain. It was sitting right in front of me and your concept of Phrygian Dominant just snapped it together like a pair of Lego bricks. Thank you so much for your being such a passionate and thorough teacher.
    Much Love,
    George from Wyoming

    This is exactly the video I needed! Everybody always says "just learn some standards" and "all you need are shell voicings" and while that's true, I'm in a position where shells just aren't that fun but trying to come up with more fun chords is still too slow and painful.
    These systems scratch just the itch for me between prettiness and ease of use so I can just focus on having fun getting some standards under my belt.

    this is excellent and very helpful - also convincing … coincidentally I were working on Lady Bird for Trio while watching; gave me some additional ideas and reinforced some of the voicings I came up with on my own - THX

  • @ezrac704
    @ezrac704 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A fourth voicing on the sharp 11 of a major 7 chord also sounds great. Not sure if that's a common voicing or not, but I love it

  • @georgefspicka5483
    @georgefspicka5483 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Oh Wow. I haven't played Lady Bird for eons, though there was a time I performed it often. I'll have to get it back into my fingers. Speaking of Eons, one of the things I did when I first started studying jazz, was to use John Mehegan's volumes to push my learning. Understanding voicings was easy, but then I discovered one could use them to construct systems that used more then just 3rds. My creative door was suddenly opened wide. Then about 20 years later there began the influence of "modern" music, atonal, serial, etc. The last time I checked, I was running head😄long with Voyager

  • @LilBurntCrust99
    @LilBurntCrust99 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    this is like all I need, ive watched the video on magic system and the 4 voicings everyone should know, also all scales and which chords to play what scales over, the lydian dominant podcast, the pentatonic licks/runs videos by piano stad. And the chord qualitu types video: Cush chords, (Modal interchange), Mu/Moo chords, and so on. Ive tried to learn all ofnthe upper extensions and alterations but its hard. In only know by heart up to 4/5 notes in a chord.

    Thanks Adam for this great lesson ! I got a question though : do you really always play the melody with your right hand 4th and 5th fingers ? That supposes lots of hand moves and leaps... I find it uneasy somtimes to adapt the fingering to the melody and the chord below... I might have a bad approach (due to my classical piano experience). Maybe the technique you demonstrate here requires a "chord based approach" more than à "melody approach" ? Thanks again for that very instructive video. Have a great musical day !

  • @bsorryrthatsit7055
    @bsorryrthatsit7055 ปีที่แล้ว

    On guitar, the whole steps or half steps in a chord crowd together too much to finger, i.e. like a ninth and a third side by side. So I guess I just flip one to the top voice...what am I doing?

    Why don't you ever use the fifth in the left hand?

    • @michaelchimenti4989
      @michaelchimenti4989 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think because the fifth doesn't contain much new information about the chord. With the root, 3rd and 7th you know exactly what kind of chord it is (by ear). The fifth just adds a note without telling the ear anything new.

    ADAM YOU need to put them in 5 different keys and have us learn them and give us a Pdf of 5 keys and play in all keys . I think that would help

    • @shanebywater6628

      no YOU need to put it in different keys yourself if you want to actually learn anything

    Hi Adam
    the hardest, longest task for jazz piano......two handed voicings for accompaniment I've been playing 40+ years, mostly solo, but a lot of trio and sessions, even a fluke gig at Mont Jazz 1991 and it's the weak link in my chain..paring down the voicings, no doubling, eliminate root. etc.. I know there's no easy way
    I've tried learning arrangements written out, for Stella i.e, and I know it helps and bleeds its way into your comping but ya have ta have it under your hands like, automatico ,without an formal arrangement. I listen to myself comp at sessions and listen to younger guys that have done the work, and dey shit? pristine!!, and I say "f###k I su###k. so sloppy.. so amateurish"
    I know there's no shomarkrt cut, but maybe a plan of action? A pared down Zen attitude toward 2 handed comping?
    A learning process? Levine's book is great, but it always looks and sounds like
    too much work for 3 lifetimes. I get into for a few days, and then am overwhelmed by the difficulty of the "next level" And it sits on my shelf gathering dust. 30 years later. ... HELP!! THANKS Mark Tarmann

    Rootless voicings are passed their prime, came in the 60’s with the likes of Bill Evans and co, it’s time to move on. Neo soul harmonies with cluster voicing, including root, is so much more modern. So C would be something like B,C,D,E and A. Leave rootless in the past.

    gOT IT adam very lucid. I got very confused over voicing, but actually given 1,7, ]l/h sweet note it s pretty easy given a few guidelines {}~ you can invent on the fly.r/h lh hAnother code cracked// What I like bout you is you are very honest give a context./ Many dont just leaving you to figure out when a riff or lick is usefull. This is impossible for a beginner/ so you end up being a lick parott!
