- John Coltrane's beautiful tune 'Wise One ' from his Classic 'Crescent' album
provides the inspiration for this tutorial.
We take some of Pianist McCoy Tyner stunning harmonic ideas and use them to construct triad pairs which we then interpolate of a static minor chord evoking different sound emotions.

His tone is beyond compare. Only lived to 40 years old and created some of the greatest truly American music.
yes my friend
He had a guiding light for sure, always searching!
I stop by every now and then just to hear this performance of Wise One. Beautiful stuff!
Well that's interesting. This knuckle dragging rock guitarist, who can't read music or play over changes, has just had the biggest injection of beautiful harmony knowledge in literally decades. Stunning tutorial! Thanks.
Utterly beautiful. Coltrane is my favorite Sax player. Bird, Dolphy, Brecker, Getz, Shorter, so many greats.
❤
Please record and release this version on soprano...OMG...it inspired a whole new dimension to this song
Bullseye my brother. Also still having my original vinyl Crescent for 49 years and counting I never took this masterpiece apart like you have here. Thank you for the keys to this kingdom!
What a stunning piece...and you play it beautifully. Great lesson, thank you.
Incredibly beautiful and soulful playing - thanks for this - so inspiring and uplifting !
Thank you so much Nick ... - and it made me hear the Coltrane-Original again. SO long ago.... So beautiful. Thanks to your inspiration I get back to the masters again after years.
Man, i just love the music you play!
Sublime, my friend, sublime. Thank you so much for this.🙏
Just beautiful, this is music. 🙏
Astounding! OK, 'Wise One' goes on the hot list!! Thank you so much!!
If you are reading this Jazz Duets, thank you so much for this wonderful video, your channel is fantastic and your playing is sublime, please never stop making these mind expanding videos 🎵
As a guitarist of 47 yrs, I find it much easier seeing these relationships on the piano. Or simply while writing notation (or going over the intervals and chord notes in my head) of what I was playing on guitar.
Lovely! Wonderful material and I'm so glad you're offering all these different triad pair videos. Great for both me and my students! By the way, I love the i minor / vii dim triad pair over the Dom 7#9 chord too - so for the B7#9 that would be Adim and Bm. It's also really nice to play triad pairs more linearly as hexatonic scales as well, as the six note scales the pairs create you could say are in the "Goldilocks" zone - not too dense, not too thin - leaving out the perfect amount of notes to give an identity to the inherent sound, while having enough tones to offer the ear the richness it craves. Keep up the great work!
Man, you're the Man.
Great teaching...this has really helped my comprehension
I always look forward to these for my practicing on tenor
Beautiful
So soul enriching, true peace...
RIP McCoy what a pioneer he was
Si good...so nice...so beautyfull...so inspiration ...so openning my mind...so sorry for my bad english...i take my saxophone and play all the day !!!
beautiful. thanks
You have got a tremendous sax sound and the synth's one perfectly matches it.
mccoy went crazy w the modal vamps, espc w the quartal chords
I recall a highly illuminating conversation I had with McCoy Tyner one evening between sets. It seems that both of us were--and still are---very fond of the music of Paul Hindemith, one of my very favorite 20th-century composers, and he made extensive use of "quartal" and other similar chords in his composing, which simply grabbed me and would not let go!
Man now I gotta buy the omnibook. Coltrane was a fucking genius
Ты крутой чувак! Много работы сделал по изучению пентатоники Колтрейна и с нами поделился этой красотой! Респект тебе и большое спасибо!
wow this was truly inspirational i love Coltrane . thanks so much nice work i subbed!
Hou là là ! Thank YOU for playing : what a tone and a pitch ! I maybe should go back to maracas ? but no, your video is so relaxing, instructive and inspiring that I'd rather go on with my sax and try all I can find on a pedal of one chord too deepen my feeling of the different colors. The genius of John Coltrale deserves such a magistral approach. And your english is very clear so as your interpretation and your commentaries. Hear you soon ! greetings from France.
Thank you. A masterpiece video
Another great topic/lesson from a fantastic channel!
Mind blowing sir

So beautiful
After delving into the "Approach Notes Triads", this is like icing on the cake, or, one of the cakes.
The best channel ! Show!
Thank you for your videos.
...excellent, Professional work and at the top with a great information!
Thank You!
beautiful soprano tone and playing!
Coltrane Wise One ❤️
Many many thanks
Soooooo beautiful !!
Stupendous. Thank you.
Thank you for this!
Gracias x el aporte muy bueno!,la imagen parece una ruta argentina
Thank you excelent!!!
Excellent, thank you.
Grazie! Sempre interessante
Your sound is so bright, full of shades and powerful, a truly great inspiration, thank you... Wise One probably my favorite Trane tune
Very nice and useful, as always. Just one question though:
Wen using E- and B triads, as B is in the E-triad already... that would be like the previous example of E- and D triads, with a missing A, right?
I suppose so. And with an added B and a little more melancholy
great!!!!!!!
Sublime ✌🏻
Awesome sounds. awesome lesson, however, I keep getting an E Dorian vibe when I improvise over the E minor F# minor chords, yet the key is G, can anyone help?
I've read that John Coltrane wrote "Wise One" in memory of the late Eric Dolphy. I've also read Coltrane wrote and dedicated it to his first wife Naima. Does any one know for sure?
Well, Coltane wrote "Naima" for his first wife. I would hope this was dedicated to Dolphy, because he really deserves more recognition.
Move it football head. Just reminds me of hey Arnold which brings me back plus Arnold says "let's go and listen to thelonious monk" dont make shows like that nymore. GREAT VIDEO
Nick. I ordered two of your lessons one was Coltranes triads are they to be mailed or down loaded. Let me know. Your sound and lesson was very well done.
Dude. Screw the triads. You're making me wanna drop guitar and learn how to play soprano.
As cool as guitar solos are, nothing beats the sax in terms of melody
I love them both guitar and sax. That’s Coltrane’s spirituality! Transfer it over to your instrument! A beautiful jazz box hollow body sound is also killin!
Same
Yes triad pairs on guitar really suck
That’s exActly what I did lol, didn’t drop it but bought a tenor and soprano and clarinet on eBay and just been learning em. Very rewarding and changed your perspective on melody and soloing
Long tall dex or trane ? The Goat which one ? Then Wayne or Joe Henderson ?
Wow!
there was only one .one of my favorite tunes is transition
Thanks! Which model sax and mouthpiece do you use here?
Do you have any of your own CDs? If you do I would like to buy them.
I was wondering why you never gave any seminars at IAJE or JEN or have you?
who is on soprano and piano on this video?
Huah! Bravo!
サンキュー😆💕✨
Hey Arrrrrrrr-nooooold!
🎉
with those two minors/majors a whole step apart this would qualify as e-dorian sound as a base, right? just wondering where this would be applicable generally speaking
Pretty much. It's a dorian sound with a "missing" note. If you play Em and F#m, for example, you would be playing E Dorian without the 7th. Depending on which triad pair you use, there would be a different note missing, so you get a different "flavour".
Better to think less about modes and more about the triads though. Running an E Dorian scale won't yield the same sound as triad pairs, even skipping the b7 won't do that, and I don't mean just because scales and triads are different sonically but because a pair of triads imply movement, which I find a scale just can't do. Scales are... I don't want to say "too much information", but played dryly they tend to muddle the sonic landscape. Whereas triads are a stable sound unto themselves and alternating between them creates a specific sound, an A/B/A alternating pattern that creates the movement which scalar thinking rarely evokes
@@TypingHazard So true - and also one of the triads tends to be "inside" (ie. the Em providing R, b3, 5) while the other provides the more "outside" colour tones (ie the F#m provides the 9, 11, 13). So moving between them in interesting ways takes advantage of these differences as highlights or tension/resolution movements. Playing a scale without the differences or highlights can be the sonic equivalent of putting everything in a blender and just ending up with one flavour. Still nutritious, but can be a bit boring! That said, using the triad pairs to create a six note scale is still valid, and especially when using unusual combinations can create really interesting hexatonic scales. It's all about how musical you are from one moment to the next.
@@steveberry7264 I agree. Validity is an interesting subject though, isn't it - so many things are technically valid, but how often are they also musical? Reductive argument incoming - a one note improvisation is valid, but how sublimely played that single note would need to be! Likewise for any scale or triad, or of course triad pair... Still I find in 20+ years of playing that triads lend themselves to cohesive, strong sounds and tend to open the avenues of creativity when paired with other concepts (voice leading, surrounding tones, triad pairs etc) in ways that scales tend not to do - or rather, typical chord-scale theory doesn't do. Treating a chord progression as being under one scalar umbrella is about as square as it gets, for my ears anyway
Typing Hazard - Yes - Your commentary is valid 😉- and musical! I wholeheartedly agree - and suspect that we "resonate" with triads partly because we are tuned to the harmonic series - it occurs in nature all around us, and in my mind influences our responses to harmony of all types - the triad pairs can strike a balance that satisfies the need for security on one hand and adventure on the other - so long of course, as you rightly point out - that it is musical in its expression - which to me can be translated as "it is played (as if) by nature" - But natural beauty comes in all sorts of shapes, so in the end, a tuned musician can make anything sound right.
😀🌱💙🌼
Your vocabulary about tones ‘resolving back,’ for instance, always conveys with spot on accuracy what we are listen to.
Quite a skill to use words to explain what the music is doing.
Just saying.
Car traveling por la rioja..?
no. La Rioja is desert. This is south cordoba
@@JazzDuets Never been there, got relatives in San Juan and Mendoza... you are a blessing with the "insights" I am not a formal musician but I enjoy playing guitar a lot.. thanks a million Sir.
Is this really Coltrane
Por favor,in Spanish
❤
Your videos are a delight to the ear, keep it up!
I’ve been practicing the two minor triad pairs for a month now, it reignited my practice sessions, thanks so much, love your channel!
One of my favourite saxophonists
One of the great innovators.
I keep repeating the intro, Trane was truly a god but you managed to breathe a new life into this beautyful melody, thank you sir.
I appreciate this lesson. Also... found it interesting the way you broke down some of McCoy Tyners chords over the drones etc. I purchased this. I’d REALLY enjoy a course on his voicings, technique. And a similar course on Bill Evans. The triad stuff was useful with guitar triads and a static Drone root. Thank you.
My favourite things..
Can you make a complete backing track for this music? It would be so amazing to actually try some solos on it... with the correct structure.
One of my favorite Coltrane albums too!
like a comet that passed through our atmosphere! what a breath of life. love Trane
This is absolutely captivating, haunting and beautiful. I’m so excited to have found your channel ❤
A truly haunting melody
Thanks Nick
Try to play this on flute.....
can't play B4b though
Beleza bro, como esas sierras
show.
me encanta tu metodologia tu pedagogia, es pura magia, y el sonido de tu sax no tan brillante como usamos todos ahora es el verdadero sonido del sax, gracias por tanto y tan bien explicado.....gracias
Well done, sir.
beautiful
Wise ones
This channel is pure gold my friend. I really thank you for it.
