- What's the best scale to use with each chord, and how do chords and scales correlate to each other? It's actually easier than you think! In this tutorial, we talk about the fundamentals- this is basically a chord-scale correlation dictionary that you can refer back to in the future if you ever run into a tricky spot. As you add extensions to your voicings, you can adjust the scale you use- we'll talk about why.

Thank you, Juan! I hope it's alright, I just went ahead and pinned your comment because I think it's so helpful for others!
Wow. Thanks.
Wow.. God bless you, you have impacted, please how do I get in touch with you. I am a saxophonist. I need to understand the scale and chord relationship and how to easily apply them, without having to think about it.
Doing the lord's work 🙏🙏
Thanks a bunch, bro. I will work on all you said
this channel is so important like .. you are appreciated
Thanks so much 🙏
Agree..
Man i love those lessons. Straight on point without unnecessary talking. Thanks for doing this man! I am a drummer by the way, this is how good your channel is.
Thanks appreciate the comment! Always great to hear that you're finding the videos helpful.
Concur - a hundred percent.
Noah and Open Studio are the two best jazz resources I've found
I came here for the masterclass on chord and scale relationships, but I stayed for the masterclass on sweater and shirt relationships!
J/K, awesome video!!
Hahaha not sure if this is one of my better or worse examples of that??
@@NoahKellman It's peak!
9:19 another way for me to remember the altered scale is that it's simply the major scale with all notes flattened except the tonic.
=> C Db Eb Fb Gb Ab Bb C
and I guess that's probably why it's called the "altered" scale
That's really helpful. Thank you!
It's funny how sometimes the most obvious thing is so underexplored. Great video!
Thanks appreciate the comment! Haha I know what you mean
His teaching technique is legendary!!
Thanks Vince!
Noah hits it out of the park again. Such clarity on such an already complex topic.
Success!! This lesson has encompassed years of study and goes beyond the Major Scale. A naturally flowing wonderful lesson. Well done, Noah!!
Just came across your channel and I really love your lessons. I studied Jazz piano in college with a classical background, and this is the one thing I had the most trouble with. I’m really trying to get these concepts down now, and your videos are such a big help! Immediately subscribed :)
As a trombonist and percussionist all of this is new and very much needed!!!
I think this is the best piano tutorial channel so far.
The explanation is very easy to understand and it helps a lot when writing jazz songs.
Really thankful
I’m a studying guitarist and this lesson is perfect for my playing ( priceless actually) Thank you Noah for the wellspring of knowledge 💯👍🎸
This blew my mind. I didn’t realize there were variations on the scales and modes that correspond with the chord types. Thanks so much for making this!
Thank god for this! Been looking for this for about 20 years.
Absolute greatness! You open up the treasure-chest and show us how the gems work! And I thank you, sir, for so doing!
Always enjoyed improvising, but I never really did it mindfully, so sometimes it'd sound great other times not so much. The videos on this channel have definitely helped a huge amount with sharpening my awareness/skills, and giving me lots of new music vocabulary to work with.
Can't begin to describe how useful this is going to be for me. Thank you for posting this, I'll be back every 5mins to double check what I can use over what!!
Hahah sounds great Alex glad it helps!!
They way your channel is truly teaching me 🙏🏾✨. I am learning and beginning to see the piano as limitless in terms of soloing, accompanying, comping and understanding harmony along with different Neo-Jazz and Modern jazz techniques, tricks and the theory💪🏾You are definitely my favorite piano TH-camr and trust me that’s a pretty strong list😉💯
Thanks really appreciate that! Glad you're getting a lot out of the content.
Immediately subscribed. Great content, extremely useful for a jazz student like me trying to understand harmony. I dig the presentation, and the clean presentation too; this is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Noah!

Hey Johnny, you're welcome!
Thank you for this channel, is very rich in contents and you are a good teacher, turns easier learn jazz piano.
I learned scales, modes and some sick chords this is a great video thanks
Thanks for the class Noah, the more I watch and study your material the more I realize jazz is all about knowing what goes with what. Jazz Is a complex world but not difficult one if you know how to "hack the piano" and doing everything very simple and effective. I will continue studying all of this!! and also with week 3-4, it starts to get complicated haha
You're welcome, Alejandro! Yeah man, you're absolutely right. The more you learn those connections, the easier and more clear everything becomes. Keep up the great work!
Really insightful video, thank you!

This is exactly the sort of thing that I've been looking for, well, except I don't really do jazz haha, but surprisingly a lot of this translates pretty well
mixolian #4 is a scale from one style of brasilian music, baião

Thank you for saying that 🙏 greetings from overseas!
I’m currently in a harmony class in berklee and we’re starting to get into this stuff, this video is great!!
Hey Adam, so glad to hear it's helpful!
Hey, Adam, how's it going? Class of '86 here... Man, do I feel old, just saying that! At least, music is eternally fresh and young!
Thanks for this bro. This is awesomely good 👍
Hey, you're welcome! Glad you got some good info from it.
Thanks man
Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thanks!
Wonderful...
Amazing
Also for the minMaj7 chord you can use harmonic minor if you're really looking for some dark tones, not really a jazz thing, but for other styles it's great
8:29 I love the Lydian Dominant scale... it has this weird, ethereal quality... hard to put into words.
Thanks ❤️
Easier way to wrap your head around Locrian #2 scale for half diminished chords: go up minor third and play that melodic minor scale. So a 2-5-1 in minor keys looks like: melodic minor of minor 3rd up for 2 half dim, melodic minor of half-step up for 5 alt, melodic minor of root for 1 m6/9
Great study and tip video.
Thanks, Jason. Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing stuff
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks 😊
Peace and much respect Noah!!
Hey, thanks and right back at you!
Thank you
I learned about Locrian #2! Cool sound -- however I'm kind of shocked to not see any harmonic minor, double harmonic or blues here. Probably my three most used sounds as a soloist!! Don't overlook these beginner soloists -- ESPECIALLY the blues, which is completely crucial.
Locrian #2 doesn't make any sense. Call it b3 melodic minor 13:05
Sounds good
i appreciated this video a lot. great job.
Thanks glad you enjoyed it!
@@NoahKellman definitely my man. subbed. i'm here for the long haul. here's to massive 2022 success for you brother.
@@FromTheHipp Thanks so much appreciate it!!
Awesomeee
You've done the Jazz lord's work
you're an excellent teacher and a terrific jazz player. I just wish you'd have a notated copy of the short riffs you play before you start teaching or when you present a chord then you make an awesome riff. What I see are notes on top of each other like a massive chord.
Thank you Edgar much appreciated 🙏 yes my time is just so limited these days, but I would like to add notation in the future
This my friends , is value , REAL VALUE
Great intro lesson. 💯
Thanks, Casto 🙏
I love this 🎹❤🔥
Thanks Marc, glad you like it!
