Agreed! They should also make a closing jam. The album is a fantastic idea, i really think they could take jazz piano to a new horizon with some funk, bee bop and soul mixture
When I studied Bach in college, they made us learn to play any three voices of the chorale and sing the fourth. Maybe the best single exercise I've encountered. This is like that.
Adam is becoming TOO powerful now. Going punch for punch with Peter is no joke - not like there’s many who can even do that in the first place 🔥🔥 beyond inspiring. You guys continue to read my mind and tackle all the jazz piano topics and questions I’ve always wondered about but didn’t know how to articulate. It’s eerie. Thank you for this unbelievably high quality info and insight you guys share with us on a regular basis.
As a guitar player, I love listening and learning from piano players and their mindset regarding harmony and melodies. Loved this video! Thank you. P.S: masterful and tasteful opening jam
Love these discussions. I think Evans has mentioned really being into the great arrangers, Herbie too. I think that helps with imagining voices creatively and independently. His rendition of Goodbye which takes some things from the original arrangement comes to mind. Herbie’s intro to Stella on Miles in Concert also is great example of the rootless idea. Those 6ths in the beginning, wow!
Albert Riemenschneider has a harmonized edition of Bach chorales for the piano. It is a good introduction to understanding chorale writing for pianists.
As a jazz aficionado and clergyman, I think I need to come on the pod and teach them about Fulton Sheen, the namesake of their nyc venue (which I lived a block away from for 6 years) 😂
Very good exercise! I recommend that every pianist learn them not on the piano, but on a keyboard with good Strings sound, in order to truly appreciate the movement of each voice.In this way I play vocalized pieces by Tchaikovsky for piano.
Just recently discovered the channel and I'm loving all the videos/podcast. Just wanted to say thanks for all you guys do! After music school, I ended up getting a more "normal job" (dentist). After graduating and finishing all my school, I realized how much I was missing the jazz hang. But jazz cats be cats and can be a little vibey these days. Nice to hear others talking about something I'm still passionate about. Listening to you guys makes it feel like I'm back in the community.
My granma used to own two buildings on Laclede. I lived in one of her apartments for a while after high school. The view outside your window reminds me of the area. I know you guys are near there. I think the neighborhood has changed. You guys are there!
Great lesson - Kevin Hays does a reharm of Stella called Twilight on his album The Dreamer (Doug Weiss & Bill Stewart) - they just destroy on this! There used to be a video of them doing Twilight at Smalls (or 55Bar) but sadly disappeared from utube. Hays was playin a Rhodes with some hvy distortion - magnificent organic playing and band just smokin...
I always love the instructional episodes. I generally get a nugget of something to work on. I'm glad I watched this one rather than caught audio only. The checked version of Peter is comically uncomfortable to watch! I totally know the feeling! Maybe it's an interesting practice for those of us whose brains move a little fast. Peter, don't sweat too hard bro! We love you.
Hey guys! So, im guessin' nobody mentions interrupting in connection with your playing together..... they better NOT! Groovin' as ever.... not sure about that piano sound, though! 😂
Hi Guys, at 10mins+- you say your playing an Em7-5 but the chord on the chart shows E G D A which is Em7(sus4)..... me finks! I think I hear your little finger play the upper Bb just before the chord. OK....Nuff said.... thanks for all the great stuff you share. Cheers
Love to hear you both playing. Can you please tell me, what gear you play in this video? Are the sounds software? Keyscape? Or are those Digital Pianos with internal sounds? I play softwarepiano, but still am not satisfied with timing behaviour of the whole system. Transporting MIDI- Data to the DAW is critical. It sounds like your systems work quite fast and precise.
Glad the original Stella Bdim.starting chord was mentioned, suddenly my mind went back to what Barry Harris was teaching us, recalling his workshops in Rome some years ago❤
@@ValirAmarilyep, because the ch precedes an s. a distinctive feature of dutch (as in, what they speak in the netherlands lol I’m not confusing it with deutsch) is that they *don’t* do this, even at the beginnings of words. So the first two sounds in “school” are a regular s and an ach-Laut. I imagine that this is how “sch-“ words were originally pronounced in German and English too, and only the Dutch preserved the original pronunciation.
Ah. You forgot the greatest hymn tradition…the English/Anglican tradition! “Brightest and Best”, “How Shall I Sing that Majesty”, “JERUSALEM” (hymn tune), etc. So many of these hymns are already rich in harmonic movement and would be a fun challenge to take in other directoons harmonically.
Please, is the chorus the Stella by sterling chord progression? Please, what are the bass substitutions or passing notes he is doing, please and thank you
One of my favorite parts of your shows is your opening jam. You guys should seriously consider making a duet album.
Agreed! They should also make a closing jam. The album is a fantastic idea, i really think they could take jazz piano to a new horizon with some funk, bee bop and soul mixture
I second this!
@@johnsaade3300Bee Bop. Live at the Hive!
Useless dead air.
@@stevemiller6321 Hey, don’t talk about yourself like that!

I just played hymns in church. Done.
@@musical_lolu4811😂😂😂
You guys are so ridiculously good at jamming together...

Opening jam always killing
Now, that's rapport and easy friendship. That just feels great.
This is the best Podcast format.
The best piano channel 👏👏👏 hugs from Colombia 🙌🇨🇴
Peter was playing so well and then he starts talking!😂
I'm from Europe. I follow you for some time. I l'm a Jazz Enthusiast. Your show is great! Pls just continue!!!
i honestly get so upset with the like count. i think these guys deserve so much more attention

Nice to know Paul Schaefer got another gig after Letterman.
Y’all crushed that intro. So many Bill Evanisms in there.
22:05 that voicing of F7 insane
Contrary and oblique motion makes me do a happy dance

I´m practising Beautiful Love a lot at the moment for my conservatory auditions in about a week, so this opening jam was super inspiring!
GALA, you got me on my knees, GALA
The u in Fux is like the oo in book. Greetings from Germany and thanks for all the great content.
I can't get over Peter saying "bottom" for bass 🤣
lol you didn’t have to go that hard off the bat but you did and that’s why we love you
This is probably my favourite ever episode. I would love to see a whole course teaching this concept on a bunch of tunes!
Clare Fischer books: Harmnoic Exercises for Piano and Alone Together/Just Me
Great Stella you guys!
What a blast. Gorgeous! Tasteful trading!!
I’m watching from South Africa. Lovely stuff gents
Killed the intro
That opening was 🔥🔥🔥
GALA 4-12 😎👍🏽🎹🌍💖

I have so much work to do! Thanks for the inspiration, time to practice!

Just delicious, simply delicious!

@@arthurroschbooksandmusic7700 Thank you so much!
Stellar musicianship...smh...well done!!
Killer playing ,

You guys sound great !❤
You guys are shredding! Imo, you guys are part of the jazz lineage.
"You start soundin' like Haydn" :D
I love the show - thank you for your awesome work Peter and Adam
Wow, gorgeous duo playing!!!!
Guys, the improv cold opens are gold! Keep ‘em coming!
you are better duo than batman and robin
great find!
Great intro jam on "Stella". Thanks for that!
you guys are great!...so great...I catch some of your individual stuff but there is somethings here in this joy of synergy thing guys...Namste!

Bach breaks your heart when he breaks the rules!❤
Thanks, guys 🙌🏼
"You know what our language is? Monneeeeeeeey!" this got me ahhaha
Totally unrelated but every time I see this thumbnail I think Pokémon STAB. Great vid guys! Commenting for the algorithm 🎉
That opening was amazing man
I love this
would love to go to the gayla 😪 but I'm exactly 5125 miles away from NY. Greetings from Santiago, Chile 🖖🎹🎶❤🔥
Loving it 🎉🎉🎉
I just learnt this place existed 😮 holy fk that was some fantastic analysis, thanks boys 🙏
You are so cute and entertaining. You are the first to do something like that. I think so. You are such a holy thing. Thank you very much.
This was a great episode. I got a lot out of it...
Video starts at 9:25
Awesome
Hey guys! So, im guessin' nobody mentions interrupting in connection with your playing together..... they better NOT! Groovin' as ever.... not sure about that piano sound, though! 😂
Great!!! ❤
And Victor Young was a serious classical composer.
Great episode guys! I feel inspired 😃
GALA (wish I could be there 4 GALA 4/12!)
Would love for you to come out to the West Coast for a live YHI. 😊

Great stuff!
By the way, the correct pronounciation of (johann) fux is "fooks" as in "books". Greetings from germany!
This was 👍🏽
“The Goodbye Look” at the start…
STELLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA by starlight
To the top you go!

Could someone please share the chord progression of the jamming and explain the bass movements please
This seems like the (lost) jazzy episode of Statler and Waldorf.
GALA 420
Jesus fucking christ please record an album of a compilation of your jams over the years, you guys with w tasty drummer would be fantastic
I must try this! Also, what is Peter playing at 24:30?? Soo nice
Can someone send the link to the Bach choral piano "Blue" book Peter mentioned
What the hell is that beautiful dual piano??
Two keyboards… just inside a desk (I’d assume)
Fux (usually spelled Fuchs today) rhymes with Books, but with the ch-sound in Bach (called ach-Laut)
in the case of 'fuchs' the 'ch' is actually a 'k' sound, same for fux

Where can I get a 2-sided musical table?
These guys are out of my pay grade, but I did buy a Bach Chorale book and am trying to learn to sightread using it. Have they tried Baroque Bebop?
Those Stella by starlight solos were so good
Hi guys, may I ask what Rhodes & piano instruments or plugins you're using for the opening jams? They sound very good.
Anyone knows which keyboard / VST Adam plays in this video ? The Rhodes sound is so nice !
So... How did Bill Evans practice harmony?
Is Peter wearing merch? Where can we get us some?
How can this be applied to improv?
day3: 0:30
day 1 of transcribing the intro jam for language: 0:05
Please, is the chorus the Stella by sterling chord progression? Please, what are the bass substitutions or passing notes he is doing, please and thank you
I was thinking, what the heck is Adam drunk, they I realized I was listening at 0.75 speed
For a moment i thought that was Luka Doncic shredding
