Those progressions are beautiful bro. The second one reminds me of Glasper's playing
Thanks, Kabelo! Appreciate the comment. Do you have any questions about anything I can help with?
@@NoahKellman yeah I do. I often get people discouraging me from thinking modes when improvising instead telling me about arppegios and pentatonic scales and really emphasising the target notes, do you think that's a good way of approaching soloing, particularly in a Neo Soul / Jazz context?
The second example does have some Robert Glasper inspired by
@@Bashanvibe know what you mean!! RG is a big influence for sure.
@@NoahKellman What's your favorite RG album?
Your presentation is informative but humble. I like "I'm here to show you all I KNOW" - a subtle but huge difference from the "everything you need to know" promised by some of these other hyped-up know-it-alls. Acknowledging that the music we love is too much for any single mind to fully grasp and that we are all students. Good job Noah!
Thanks I appreciate the kind words. To be honest, I've probably said everything you need to know before (and I would imagine that most of those who do mean well) but I agree that it's important to be humble and respectful of this music. Like everyone, I have certain strengths and weaknesses and without a doubt, gaps in my knowledge, so I'm always open to learning more and excited for learning from others as well. I certainly do my best to let you all know when there's something I'm unsure of as well. Thanks for your comment and for watching my videos, I appreciate it.
"The Glasper Sessions" ... quality stuff!
thanks, Billy!!
Complete beginner here. I figured that, if I was going to have a hard time learning the piano, I might as well doing it while listening to something good. I like your sound (and the simple explanations).
Watched a thousand neo soul videos before I landed on this one.
And also, thanks for the added color keyboard on top. It makes it easier for newbies to follow.
Thanks 😃🙏 glad you enjoyed it!!
all of these chords can win a grammy.
These melodies paint such wonderful images in my thoughts. 🎹🎼🎶❤
Wish I have had these tutorials when I was younger. Grateful to have them now. Thanks Noah
🙏🙏😃
As a man in his now mid 50s and getting back into playing the piano, I am SO so very glad that this video was my introduction to your channel, Noah!! I mean, I guess I typed in "Neo Soul." I mean, Wow!! I'm so excited to practice and learn these progressions!!
Man I’m felling like I’m flying when I hear the beginning! That’s a blessing from God!
man its so funny that you are saying "this one is cool" etc and meanwhile im almost in tears at how beautiful ur voicings are hahaha. the last one sounds like the music in heaven. thanks for sharing brother
These are great man! I’d love to see a video on keeping track of your key signature in these progressions, and possibly how to transition between some varying key signature progressions. 🙏❤️
Hey Noah, thanks so much for this channel. You've helped me get out of my comfort zone and start learning new techniques and I can't thank you enough. Keep it up, don't know what I'd do without it
I just wanna say thank you and we need some more of those progs !
Hey, you’re very welcome! Will definitely make some more for you in the future :)
I come back to this video often.. thanks for everything you do man
@@dre7256 for sure, appreciate the comment and glad you’ve gotten a lot out of it
You're amazing because you actually describe the intervals ... I don't even play piano but I'm learning
As I am a self teached piano and musician learner, I never would have reach your point. Ummm, interesting perspective. I will take it into account from now on. Thanks for taking your time and put it ‘ion paper’. As always you open my mind to new musical ideas. Thank you again
You're welcome, Carlos. Thanks again for the comment.
I wish they had these when I was growing up. You have a great way of explaining everything.
Learning this is amazing

I feel really lucky to have stumbled across your channel. Love your work sir
Thanks so much, Jitamanyu. I appreciate your support and comment!
That first progression is beautiful facts
Hey Noah - I'm first! Was just doing your sus4 warmup exercise when this landed. Sounds wonderful.
Amazing!! Thanks Chris :) how’s the exercise going?
@@NoahKellman Love it, and getting there!. 13th sus4 has always been a favourite sound of mine. Great that you worked it into these latest Neo Soul progressions - got sidetracked and am learning the first two already haha.
@@chriswright2553 hahaha awesome. Hey, why not? Let me know how it goes
I love these chord progressions. I'm working on the first one. I really need to practice.😊 great vid here!
3rd progression is my favorite!
5:53 i believe that was supposed to be Emin11 not Eb -- cheers noah!
you are literally the best at making these videos, nobody else makes progressions i enjoy like you do
My guy 💪🏾, the help to my Neo-Jazz growth, I appreciate these vids and your ability to teach 🙏🏾✨. I definitely enjoy the content you give. 💯
#Everyday1%better
Thanks Prince really appreciate the comment! So glad to hear it’s helpful. 💯 every day a little better
Hey Noah, I think that you are THE BEST piano channel on youtube!
You know so much more than other piano teachers on youtube and you teach very well!
I have a question: I'm aware that you've done a how to play like Oscar Peterson which by the way was REALLY in-depth and amazing to watch! But I was wondering if you could do a video explaining Oscar Peterson's c jam blues night train solo.
I have managed to figure out that there is a sequence of 12 bar blues then 4 bar break then 12 bar blues and so on but I would really appreciate a breakdown of his techniques!
Thanks
Hey Leon, thanks so much for the kind words and support! I will definitely keep that in mind for a future video :) I love the idea.
So much great information!... Thanks!
Hey, you're welcome!!
So beautiful, No2 is amazing
Thanks!!
No2 is the first one I chose to learn
This is great!
Very Robert Glasperish. I'm trying to memorize these progressions. I was wondering, how do I know which scale I should use to improvise on this?
Awesome, Adrian! Try this: th-cam.com/video/CsoB2o8PHfI/w-d-xo.html
Thanks, much appreciated :)
As usual Noah, your video is on point.
Thanks, Herve! Glad you enjoyed it :) got any questions about anything?
@@NoahKellman Not at the moment, as soon as I do, I'll surely bring it forward.
Real hip stuff, sounds great. Thanks for putting this together and explaining comprehensively
These sound like Robert Glasper Progressions so beautiful
I love love love that 2nd progression...ok I love all of them after that lol just pure 🔥
love these, thank you
Wow I really love these progressions they are the best I've heard so far
Just what I’m looking for….thank you!!
This is so educative sir
Thanks for the comment glad you’re finding it useful!
I Can hear Robert glasper in that progression , really nice ,
these progressions are so awesome!
Thanks for your generosity
thank you
Amazing work. God bless you.
yes I should really start incorporation these voicing more they are so flexible.
Yeah absolutely! What have you been trying to far to work on them?
@@NoahKellman Moving these voicing around in intervals like thirds. Trying to incorporate them into songs I know. And trying different inversions. For example for that min 11 voicing, inverting the maj add4 triad that is build on the BVII to get a nice effect.
A-Maz-Ing progressions! So heavenly it seems irreverent for me to learn them. But I'm going to! I'll probably pass out playing them. Thank you Mr Kellerman
You're quite welcome, Windsor. Glad you enjoyed it. And not at all-- I'm sure you can get these under your fingers.
Beautiful. The dynamics used herein and overall rhythmic pulse are also important factors here.
Absolutely fabulous Noah...I want to cancel my schedule and work on your material all day! Thanks!!
muchas gracias, saludos de Argentina!
keep it up boss man your videos help so much
Thanks for the comment. I'll keep them coming for sure!
Thanks so much mate. This is amazing!
Thank you very much! God bless!
Hello Noah. I’ve been following you for a long time, and I’ve bought several music packages from you. Always providing great and fresh ideas on music, jazz and neosoul. Thanks for sharing. One question/doubt from my humble point of view. On progression 5, of course I have steal it for my repertoire, the chord Ab F B E sounds spectacular, but youre naming it Abdim. For me its a kind of Fdim /Ab. What I’m doing at playing is adding after your chord the Ab F B D, with one finger movement, the real Abdim. Thanks for your feedbak. Carlos
Hey Carlos, thanks for the comment and the support! Good question. If you think about F and Ab diminished 7 chords, they actually share the same exact notes (F, Ab, B and D). I could see the argument for tons of specificity to actually call it Fdim(maj7) / Ab, for example, which would include the E in there! But for me, I feel the overall sound/tonality of the chord is Ab diminished because it shares so much with F anyway. So, maybe that's not a perfect theoretical answer, but that's how I think of it anyway! Perhaps a theoretician can weigh in here too if they see this conversation. For me though, calling it Abº7 makes sense, even though I'm playing an E instead of D. Does that all make sense?
Hello Carlos, when I was young, I was cofused with this kind of voicing (and the naming). But the I figured out simple rule. Dim chord = whole tone/ half tone scale. So E is an extension of the diminished chord. Play Ab dim7 in left hand, then add G dim7 in the right. Hope it helps. Brazilian guitar players use a lot of this (like Ab F B E, from the bottom). They call it Adim7 b13
I'd love for you to analyze something off Marc Cary's "Rhodes Ahead"
I discovered your site .So helpful and beautiful playing. Very useful to me ! Great work. Greetz from Holland
Great stuff man. I'm a newcomer to your channel (You did this over a year ago!) so you hooked me. Can't wait to try these.
10 seconds in... Hits subscribe 😂😂😂🎉. I already know I'm going to love this.
muy bueno hermano
Thank you Noah!!!! IT is a very important Information!!!!
I would love to hear Diz and Bird or Hawk-any of those guys and for sur Pres play on top of these sounds. I am sure they would sound great! I think Braxton Cook is really making some great music with this amalgamation.
Hermoso video y buen toque . Gracias Noah.
Beautiful video and nice touch.Thank you Noah.
You're very welcome, Victor. Thanks for the comment
I really appreciate this Noah! Thank you ✌🏿
Very cool progressions. Would sound cooler on Rhodes !

Hi, please teach “Big Sky” by Cooliger. Thanks so much for all of your video tutorials and thanks in advance for considering this sincere request. Greatly appreciated 🎶💞🎶
Hey Noah...I believe 5:55 is an Emin11 no? In any case...great stuff again man!
Ahhh yeah totally! I seem to always have a chord name wrong hahaha the editing process can be a lot to take on so I usually miss something
Thanks for pointing that out!
Love it man! Super helpful to be able to get a visual on this sound
Thanks for the comment glad to hear it’s helpful!
Great Voicings! Very Glasperish, Love them
Thanks, Leo! Glad you're enjoying them. Let me know how it goes if you try them out!
Amazing voicings!!
@@sydneysithole1622 Thanks, Sydney!!
Would you mind doing some Rhodes or electric piano tone video please？Thank you
Not a bad idea, thanks for the feedback!
In 5 the Ab diminished has a #5 - E - instead of the diminished 5th. Flat 13? Still sounds cool.
Loved it!
Beautiful
AMAZING THANK YOU!!
Amazing advice!
Thanks again, Noah!
You’re welcome, Beka!
Brilliant!
Dope
This video is an incredible tool, thank you so much. I’m a producer working in ableton live and mapping these chords to actual single pads on the push. I’m wondering if you or someone here can tell me the key signature of each example. The first two seemed to work well in C min, but not sure if that’s correct or what key the others are. Thanks so much for publishing this, I absolutely love this style of music with the rich chords. I’m a drummer by the way so please excuse the beginner questions.
Hey man great work here I learned the first progression and wanted to know if I could use it on one of my beats and actually use it for sync licensing(tv show etc)
Nice. Thanks for making this.
You're welcome. Let me know if you have any questions!
Another great video! Thanks!
You’re welcome! Thanks for the comment
Awesome.
Great performance, great Noah.💯
Thank you, Enzo 🙏 appreciate the comment
So nice tnx
No.2🔥🔥🔥
Dope indeed
Can you break down the progressions and voicings Robert Glasper uses in a next video?
