I will be honest I am learning to play the piano at the age of 60. I am retired now and have the time to put to it. I have always enjoyed music but never had the time or funds to work on it the way I wanted. I used to play the electric bass badly when I was 20 but raising a family and the expense of that kept me from continuing. I hope to follow you as mush as I can and your relaxed calm style is very appealing to me. Good luck with the series and I hope to send you other posts as time goes by. Rick M.
Good luck it's never too late!!
if you have any questions regarding music theory that you'd like to ask a person instead of searching for answers in a video, I am an available resource. I'd be happy to answer any questions that you may have. good luck to you
Same situation Rick (61) but using a Motif xf to compose, very new to keyboard and find it very enjoyable training to use both hands at the same time. Never too late to learn and it is a good way to keep that brain alive :D

this made me happy. Amazing
Damn the Prince of England is teaching me piano.
gahloot haha nailed it.
Hzhahahahahahskd
gahloot Wow fucking rude to assume that all Brits are "Princes or Kings". You disgust me.
Besides, he's actually the 1st duke of Windsor.
Actually, I assumed all Brits that are not Princes, or Kings were all gay! Thanks for verifying.
gahloot Are you coming on to me?
Watching this while taking a shit...
What a peaceful shit
indeed
Same here brother
me too lol wtf
Feel ya
You're the only youtuber I know where the clickbait title isn't actually a clickbait title.
Arr thank you Bhuyakasha. I tend to go extreme with my titles, but only when I believe they will deliver and live up to the name. I really appreciate you saying that :)
DOVYDAS is also, you should look him up. He's great!
Almost all TH-cam piano tutorials are indecipherable.
Jazz Tutorial the chords and sequences you share are so beautiful I cried. Such evocative arrangements. Thank you for sharing.
I didn’t see any chord progression formulas. Bit confused why say progressions in the title when it’s “lush chords in great sequence”. Did I miss a progression formula?
Thank you so much. These are lush and clean and beautiful. And I can do them (with a lot of effort!) I’m fairly new to all this, bit are these truly “progressions”? If they are would you please pretty please write the formulas for us so we heathens can apply it to any key?
lofi hiphop samplers alert!
Hey I was the 69th comment........... Nice

Flappymlg360 That’s why I’m here
Exactly
PLEASE do more of these. I feel this is the best way to learn new progressions! You are super. Thank you for this. I appreciate this.
+Nicodemo Lalli Absolutely Nicodemo - I love doing this and I have some more piano based vids coming soon
YEEEESSSSSSS you the man!
9:30
Probably the best thing my ears had in months.
This is why music attracted so many people. The difference between each choice of a chord is so subtle and yet it gives you completely different color and feels.
I bet his hands smell like lavender
😂
Prob smells like pussy lmao
youre not wrong ya know
LMFAOHXTG💀💀
Better than puppy...
That piano tone is so beautiful, rich, harmonic, but not harsh...
CodeStation I know, I need to invest in a darker and more resonating piano
the final progression is mind blowing....
definitely the best endless progression so far...
thank you for sharing
A BIG thumbs up for you Mr Bradley, thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge of jazz harmonic chord progressions, you have given me plenty of ammunition of playing time to enhance my melodic and harmonic jazz chord, modal and riffing structures to get my pinkies into!
Cheers, Peter.
Great stuff! i will be having a ball applying this to guitar.An awesome way to move away from the obvious guitar oriented progressions that can easily become repetitive and quite boring. Thank you!
This was so amazing, thanks Julian! Been wanting to learn how to combine chords in this fashion for such a long time.
Love it! As i get older, i realize i cannot just force myself to do things that i am not meant to do. Work that means nothing to my soul.. i will not do it. Instead, i must hear this jazz tutorial, listen music and practice my piano. Thanks a million, Julian!
Unbelievably helpful. It was nice to show someone demonstrating some really interesting and super jazzy chord progressions and ideas for expansion. So many demos that keep you in the ii V I or I IV V blocks
Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful chord Progression. Started playing them on both guitar and piano...what a sound :)
My pleasure Lukas! Thank you for your kind comment :)
I love to see how other composers think. Your approach is wonderful and opens our ears to new possibilities.
+LadyYumYumShow Thank you so much LYYS! I really appreciate your kind words!
yumyum my bum amirite chums, fuck you. seriously. you're terrible at jazz.
These chords sound so beautiful ... I'm learning piano again after 30 years without playing and I'm happy about it. I've seen so many Jazz videos in the recent months and it's just these beautiful Jazz chords that inspired me to try it again. Thanks a lot for sharing this.
Many thanks, I liked many of the three progressions, and I must emphasize their honesty, when teaching and showing the music
As a guitarist this gave me lots of cool stuff to work on. Those slide chords involve a bit of finger gymnastics, but they sound killer when arpeggiated. Thanks for the brain exercise, cheers.
I watched this whole video and I don't even play piano 😅 beautiful playing . you're very skilled
Arr thank you Matt! I'm so pleased to hear that!
No problem at all. Gives me great inspiration for my music. check out my stuff if you like. search: MaLuca :D
Your ‘glide progression’ is magic. I love it.
wow! some really nice tricks here. It did blow my mind in the sense that you can change the chord types with very subtle changes.Much appreciated!
Julian, it's Great! Even though I'm focusing on underscore/hybrid orchestral type of musical composition - it's so wonderful that there are so enjoyable tutorials on jazz/pop harmony ideas in contrast. Great and relaxing voice you've got, video editing skills and firstly, educational influence in here! Cheers! And thank you :)
this tutorial really 'struck a chord' with me. boom.
Nice! Thanks so much Eric, really pleased this one 'resonated' with you :)
Tish.

Get out
boi
your first progression reminds me of walking in Chicago at night. the streetlights reflecting off the city, and the shimmering river that cuts through streets all around. Romantic, deep, a bit of grit, and the possibility left in the last few hours of the night. Strangely specific and lovely
Probably one of the best tutorials out there on a simple yet beautiful approach on jazz chord progressions. Thank you!
Someday I’ll write a worthy comment that expresses fully how much I love your channel, but for now: I just stumbled across you, this is my first video, and I’ve been playing with it and soaking in your easy-to-comprehend, yet deeply satisfying content for over an hour now. You’ve ignited my passion to better understand and compose jazz-inspired piano with which to play around, only now I’ve found a video I can learn from and resonate with. So thank you. This video is perfect.
Please 🙏🏽 don’t forget the message, he deserves! 🎉🙌🏽
amazing how thoroughly and easy you explain everything! Amazing video!
Arr thank you so much Lowgan! That really means a lot to me. And I'm just preparing some more chord progression videos like this one - really hope you enjoy them
I'm really blown away by these! Thanks for sharing Julian and never stop making these!
I absolutely love these chord progressions. Thanks for sharing these!
I'm here for the lofi jazz chords thanks for the lessons
that original song "falling in love for the first time" is amazing. bravo!
As somebody who has just started learning Jazz piano, I was so proud of myself to be able to identify the partial 2-5 progressions in the last chord progression!
So so so AWESOME! I love the progressions !! Thank you! 😃
I was really digging this video.... And then I realized it was uploaded on my BirthDaY!!! :DD Thansk for the instructions. Definiteli tutorial to remember..
David Zvonař happy birthday
Arr happy birthday David from me! So pleased you liked this one - April 28th is a great date!
this reminds me of Robert Glasper. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and music.
C#min 9 chord must be the most beautiful thing in music i ever heard, thank you for this lovely tutorial!
So happy I signed up for the Jazz lessons series. It's pretty incredible, but looking back on these videos I finally "get it." Wish you all the best!
That first progression is so nice! Amazing playing
Thank you Robert!

I really enjoyed that Julian; thanks so much. I gave up piano when I was 10 (60 years ago) and this has got me interested again!
All that time ago I used to love listening to my parent's old jazz 78s; one in particular; Joe Sullivan playing Gin Mill Blues. I couldn't work out what the left hand was doing and my teacher wouldn't (or couldn't) help me, nor could anyone else. I gave up out of frustration. I recently found a recording on here and managed to get the sheet music from the U.S. It's way beyond me now, but I reckon this is within my grasp. Excellent!
And I was concerned about my memory!
Ed Phillips go you !!!
Such mesmerizing chords. Thank you!
Very cool chord progressions Julian! Great composition starters!
Oh, those delicious minor 9ths and 11ths!!! Artists have their colours, and we have these - synaesthesia RULES!

Good point, well made.

:-)
I'd like to point out that the string samples in Reflekt's "Need To Feel Loved" were originally from a track called "Ghosts," composed by Thomas Newman for the Road to Perdition film soundtrack.
I'm a 66 year old Nooby of almost 4 months but I discovered your channel early on. You blew me away since it was way over my head, but I kept coming back. Your 3rd progression will probably become my favorite also. I had to rewind and listen to the description again, but then I answered both questions correctly.
You really have a neat way to teach. Relaxed. Merci beaucoup.
Thank you for planning and delivering this excellent video, which has inspired me to explore these wonderful sounds. Thanks also for the generous "downloads".
truly sweet progressions! the last one goes backwards through the circle of fifths.
Your first chord progression sounds very much like Tribe Called Quest's Electric Relaxation
I just listened to them for the first time a few months ago. Am rlly liking them.
@@lifeguard8887 they are amazing
A lot of different songs use the first one
Ahhh good call!
@@lifeguard8887 check the Rhime and find a way are my top 2 slappers
Delicious progressions!, i really like that jazzy sound
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
What's the chord progression in the intro where he's talking? Super nice dude
Hi Nightpacer! I just posted a breakdown of the intro music you requested - hope this helps, Julian:
th-cam.com/video/1aqw4kj6J9o/w-d-xo.html
+jazztutorial That's awesome man! Thanks so much for making a video on that :)
1-2-6
VII - i - VI
That progression hurts so good...
This is great! When you finished the first progression I thought you already showed all three 😂
Great tutorial, these chords are so moody but beautiful. I've always been amazed how certain sounds can strike up emotions.
Thank you! I haven't played in a while and I'm an ear-player. What you've shown here reminds me of the "Sudnow Method," but you've simplified it so well, here.
¡Muchísimas gracias!
+Manuel Mau Thank you Manuel!
Oddly, the first progression puts me in mind of the jazzy ambient drum and bass of the late 90s ... give 4 hero's 'Golden age of life' (which has a very similar progression) a listen...
thanks for the recommendation
I thought the exact same... Actually came here to get inspiration for some chords for drum'n'bass ^^
All of these remind me of an artist called Haywyre and his album called "of mellows and revelations".
check allan holdsworth Downside up in the album sixteen man of tain

I am just beginning to learn piano chord progressions, and I like the way you try to simplify it for someone like me, who is pretty much all thumbs on piano. Thank you.
Loved your chord progression!!Thank you!!Sweet as the teacher,,,
this gave me goose bumps
+Le'Onto P But did it blow your mind?
That too, thanks! :)
Man, this made me want to play piano
Arr I'm so pleased to hear this Luca - I'm just preparing some new chord progression videos like this one - I hope you enjoy these too
jazztutorial cool, looking forward to that. Right now I'm actually studying jazz guitar.
Great comment. I feel the same.
Great complexity! Useful information!
Easy and calm instructions - just love it!
I know this video is mostly for piano but it just sounds beautiful on guitar.
is it playable on the guitar? does it use the same chords with the piano?
+Lightclaw yes
+El Hombre Murcielago nice I'm gonaa try it
Absolutely - a chord progression is a chord progression - and can be played on any instrument that can play chords guitar, piano, vibraphone, harp ... you name it
Who else cracked up the way he said “it’ll be my absolute PLEASURE ”😂😂😂😂😂
Your tutorials are just a great gift. Thank you very much.
first video I'm watching from You and I'm totally blown away, wow! Somehow You combine the relaxed way of playing with a great educational piano lesson. Been playing almost every day for 10 years now, spending a lot of the time improvising and playing melodies/songs I've heard on the radio/TV/other. Keep the great job up man, I'm ready to sub!
the music playing during your introduction is lovely. any chance of a tutorial of that?
great vid btw.
i thought i was the only one who thought that lol xD
I want to find it out too. It sounds awesome
"Venice Beach in Winter"
cringe
This reminds me a bit of the Halo OST. It made me realise just how well the chords progress in the soundtracks.
Skyreon TP YES!
best OST ever. Still listen to it when I'm writing sad scenes for my book
I use Halo OSTs to write to as well! Cheers!
"Never forget", "Peril" and "One final effort" belong to my all-time favorite game/film OST's.
yessss
it's a divine progression.
i'm very happy to found this video. it will increase my skills in piano.
thanks man!
This was incredibly helpful! So thank you!
The second chord progression is that of "Ghosts" by Thomas Newman for the Road to Perdition soundtrack... Just a different key
Hi, thanks so much for sharing! What is the song you've used at the very beginning of your video? Thanks a lot!!!
Alessandro Bovero Leaving a comment.
Original and beautiful chord progressions Julian. The note labels and diagrams are an excellent tool for novices! :)
this is awesome stuff julian! good work; i'll definitely be incorporating these chords in musical endeavors.
Chords at beginning: Em7, Am, F....you're welcome :)
FUCK that first one is good.
So pleased you liked that one AB, I'm just preparing some more videos like this one (on chord progressions) - so I have some more just like the first one. Stay tuned :)
ughhh the feels bro. im loving it. thanks for this video!!!
Thank you so much for describing glide progressions! I've always wondered if there was a name to that sound. I freaking love it.
First progression sounds like a song from nujabes
flylo
projektriot89 or electric relaxation by tribe
projektriot89 รึุ
John Becerra or drive by troyboi and evil needle
It reminded me of JOLLY - Where Everything Is Perfect
what if you've never had lessons jullian can your course help us? thanks
Another wonderful tutorial Julian! Thank you!
I keep playing that jazz beat in my head,, man this is deep, beautiful
Remembers me so much of Civil Twilight - Letters From The Sky!!! *---*
I was thinking the same thing!!!!!!
The first chord progression you used here can be found in Kendrick Lamar's "These Walls."
greebat I knew I had heard in that album somewhere! Thanks!
erhh, sorry, that's incorrect
Kev what's the actual progression then?
no idea, but it does not sound the same. similar motion though.
greebat it does sound Kendrick-ish ☺
You’re brilliant, just lovely stuff. Nice teaching style and mannerism too. Thank you.
I love your method of instruction and those chord voicing. Thanks
What are the chords in the intro while you're talking??? Those are great too
Yes I want to know too! When I tried it on my piano I came close with G - Am - C - F, which sounds very similair. but might be missing something.
Play with left hand these notes: G-D A-E E-C F-C,
Right hand: B C E A
Hi Justin! Here's a breakdown to those intro chords you asked for:

Hi Huckleberry Sauce! New video explaining the intro chords:
th-cam.com/video/1aqw4kj6J9o/w-d-xo.html
I like the chord progression at the start when your talking over it how do you play that?
pure ownage THIS
legofanas what
pure ownage, you.
The most informative and generous tutors on the internet, very glad I stumbled upon you :)
This is what I was looking for! Thank you so much for these videos!
What's the theory behind the A7 around 4:40 resolving to C#min? It sounds great but wouldn't you expect it to resolve to D?
I'm kinda upset that nobody has replied to this within the past 8 months. I watch a lot of videos like this to learn new concepts, and you learn just as much from the comments sometimes as you do from the video.
Well augmented chords are a sharp fifth. In the key of c#, a is the sharpened fifth so it adds tension. Just a theory, I don't actually know
My guess is that it's more of a voice leading / common tones thing than an actual resolution. Progressions like this in particular are called chromatic mediants. There's tons a videos that can explain that concept better than me
A7 contains the notes A, C#, E and G
C#min(7) contains C#, E, G# and F#
So in switching from A7 to C#min7 (or just C#min) we’re only changing 2 notes, and we’re just moving them each down a semitone. The chords being so close to each other is why they resolve nicely. This is true with most resolutions. We hear how close the A7 is to C#min and so we’re naturally pulled in that direction.
Aiden Moroney sorry if i'm late, but do you know why in the 2nd progression B flat Major7 is included despite being outside the c minor scale?
allright...if you could tell me what the chords in your introduction are...i would be happy :) as i can see, many people are asking that.
greets!
Hi Olebiege! I just posted a breakdown of the intro music you requested - I hope this helps:
th-cam.com/video/1aqw4kj6J9o/w-d-xo.html
You have an incredible ear and a great way of explaining it.
Outstanding lesson. Thanks for sharing
The first progression is the exact same as in Dadbod by Logic
Whaaaaaa...?
@@saikilaverave7122 yeah haha listen to it it sounds the exact same lol
@@TonyMacaroni69_ yo FOR REAL though! crazy I knew I recognized it and then read this comment, and you were *spot on*
@@TomRyan603 glad I'm not the only one who noticed haha
would be nice to know which are the modes of those chords, because clearly there are modulations. For example, in the first progression, Cm7 is the relative minor of Eb, B maj 7 is the lydian mode of Gb, Bbm7 is the Dorian of Ab, A maj 7 is the lydian of E and C#m9 is probably the relative minor of E, but maybe it could be the Dorian of B? a modulation to B, I don't know. It would be nice to get a nice context of the chords from those progression, because it would help to create variations, melodies and a richer harmony. Is far more enlightening to know the modes. Yeah, in those progressions someone may argue that it is not necessary to say the modes, because it's pretty easy to find, but I say that if it's easy to someone so that must also be easy to find those progressions in the first place.
About the second progression, I would like to suggest a little variation:
Fm7, Db maj 7 (lydian from Ab), Cm7, Gm9 (maybe dorian from F), Ab maj 7 (lydian from Eb, the return)
Using the Db maj 7 you avoid the repetition of the Ab maj 7, making the returning to C minor at Ab maj 7 even more strong and ethereal (?), the Gm9 is more beautiful (at least for me) because of the movement you do from C to G (fourth below) and the moviment from G to Ab (second minor), a down and up movement with nice intervals, and if Gm9 is a dorian of F, we will have two differences from Eb, the A and E, making a even more impactful modulation (for those who like it).
Not saying this progression is better, I just enjoy more strong moviments (it sounds pretty for me) and I think maybe someone will like it too.
anyway.. see ya~~
Thanks a lot for this! You're playing and thinking are really musical & awesome - this is probably the first TH-cam video that I've taken the pain to sign just to say "Thank you!.. very much. This is stuff I've been looking for from a long,long time" God bless (if I may)Enjoyed thoroughly and learnt! David.
That 1st progression is gold!
