Noah, you are more than an accomplished pianist --- you are a natural-born teacher.
Thanks so much! 🙏🙏
Master the fundamentals. Right now I’m going through I’ll Remember April and writing out 2 handed comping voicings in 12 keys. Everyday I practice 2-3 keys slowly and eventually start playing in time. Reharmonizaiton is still too advanced for many, and it’s much better to have total control of the most common voicings/progressions. Then you can get really creative once the control is there.
Beautiful!
This is genius, dont stop 👍👍
Thank u, I'm thinking out the box and making new muscle memory🙌🏾💯
Easy for you and musicians with absolute ears !
I envy you
Great stuff! Experts make it look too easy. Great teachers make it look possible. Thank you.
You’re welcome! Thanks for the comment
Hi Noah. This is EXACTLY what I have been doing lately, getting different shapes, also shifting the bass note down mainly, but up as well, whilst keeping the melody note CONSTANT (in reference to your other brilliant videos on this exercise which is my favourite, and I think is also key to freedom all over the keyboard, and more importantly, trying to figure out what scale the chord comes from. Thank you for this.
My pleasure. Thank you for this comment- really great to know it is helping!
Brilliant Noah! Thanks so much for sharing this concept. Can’t wait to apply this to my arrangements. Thanks for all that you do. 👏
Hey, my pleasure. Let me know how it goes, would love to hear the results!
Wow! Such a small mind shift makes all the difference. Shifting fewest notes (voice leading) between chords has never been easier. Instead of thinking in numbers, I just “see” the note pool and shift to the closest scale degree of the new chord. Easy peasy! Again, I’ll say “Brilliant!”. Think I need to take a closer look at your course offering LOL! 😎🙏
@@ScottMeloney hahah well feel free to let me know if you have any questions!
@@NoahKellman will do. I have a phone meet setup with Jack on Monday 😎
@@ScottMeloney sounds great!
thanks, noah..
It’s funny how I already do this without knowing!!! Idk 🤷🏽♂️ this had a name for it I just thought I was trying to be dope!!! Now I can be aware now I know it has a name!!!
Hi Noah!!!
finally a 10 minute lesson again like you used to do a while ago!!!! THANKS!!!!
because no one can beat you at this!!!!! I was worried because I understood that you were not in good health....

Thanks Paolo! Yes I am dealing with a shoulder injury that makes things difficult, but it is getting a lot better. Thank you for caring 🙏
Sometimes when I am using this approach I made mistakes and actually I end up liking the sound 😁 This is a dope approach than following a strict theory. Especially in song writing. Because mistakes might end up being happy accidents.
Den var bra!
Great stuff thanks for this! Wanted to know what app you're using for the visual midi feedback? Notes played and chord in staff / chord name. Thanks!
Hey, thanks! It's called Chordie App
Great video Noah! I'm wondering how one could use this voicing method for composing?
Hey! Well when you are composing depending on what instruments you are writing for, this technique could help you find really great voice leading for arranging. Might also be a fun way to discover which courts to move to in a progression.
Hi Noah. I'm a vision impaired piano player. Thanks for posting this awesome video. This video for me poses a couple of questions. First, are there certain scale combinations that work or does any scale shape fit with any scale shape? Dorian, then Lidian but could someone try Dorian and then another scale type? Also can this be done with modes within a scale such as c major where one would start on d and travel up the keyboard to the d an octave higher?
Hey Marshall, my pleasure! Really glad that you found the video helpful. I would say just generally speaking, this concept applies to any scale. A scale just being a specific collection of notes, the concept here is really just to practice shifting the notes in your cordfrom one scale to the other. Any scale, from any family of modes can work!
So I need to learn the scales finally? Argh! :D
You don’t need to practice running up and down the scales. Just learn to visualize the pattern each scale makes. Lay your hands on the keyboard, leave them in one place and practice shifting your fingers into different keys.
The addition of a base note will then define the mode within that scale.
Hi Noah, thanks for a great lesson. The code for piano de voyage has expired.
Thanks for letting me know! I'll check in to see if we can extend it. Cheers!
Code should work now!
😮😊😊
Aqui do RJ - Brasil acompanhando essas belas ideias, sou iniciante no teclado e espero um dia tocar no estilo gospel americano para aplicar nas nossas músicas da harpa cristã aqui na igreja da qual faço parte.
Getting dark me muckas. Polychords, I feel.
Easier to shift shapes on a guitar
Good content but damn these wrong enharmonic spellings drive me crazy every time...
I hear that working on solutions for the future!
Do you mean the software display as Noah plays? So how should the software decide which enharmonic spelling to employ? I mean, what “key” is he in here? Think shapes… think shapes… ☺️
@@NoahKellmanWhat software is that, Noah?
@@j.stribling2565 it’s called Chordie. Great app but it’s true that it’s not ideal with some of the spellings. That said I don’t have time to write everything out, but I actually do have a friend who is developing a pretty smart algorithm that I think will solve this issue in many cases.
@@NoahKellman Thanks for your kind reply.
Says let’s play without using theory but spends five minutes talking about ha ha just messing with you. I don’t NOAH thing about this haa!
Hahaha you caught me 😅
