Thanks Jonny 🙏 appreciate you checking it out! My Dad is learning jazz piano so I actually suggested he check out your video as well. They make a good combo!
OMG common its not even fair, i see you lining up all those chords progressions meanwhile im stuck feeling like there are only 5 or 6 possible 😭😭 youre so great man keep it up please
Fabulous Noah,have been watching some of Your trio recordings. I think as an 86 year old student I can rightfully say,having met most of the greats here in Toronto, that You are "all World" You have become my#1 jazz pianist. Sure glad I took advantage of the "Amazing jazz improv exercise" from Your store. Incredible help in my learning curve,everyone should get it. Many thanks. Ray
I must say, you teach awesome. The way you put the concepts clearly, the information on the screen, etc For us (the ones who learn ultraprofessionally but not from the conservatory) your videos are a miracle. Thanks a lot, regards from Spain
Noah once again, you've come out with some wonderful content for those of us needing more of a challenge. I appreciate that you let us know that this is something that we can do. As with anything, this will take some. But at least I know that I can do this. I think that this will help with coordination and maybe even finger independence. Thanks for bringing me up another level
Nice passing tones! I'll be rewatching this several times to work out the harmonics you're tying these chords together with. I've been using tritone substitutions to spice up ii-V-I progressions for a while now. You demonstrate nicely how these tritone subs can resolve to b9 chords (ie 4:28 in the video). @AimeeNolte did a video a few months ago analyzing a McCoy Tyner solo where she called these "anticipatory" changes ("anticipatory pentatonics" for McCoy, of course). As an aside, Body and Soul is a nice contemplative tune to focus on while the NE United States is getting buried in snow.
Ooo, love this video. Also, during the Diatonic motion portion of the video, I threw in an A Maj 9 chord before the Ab chord. Voicing it with the tonic of the next chord on top brought some great color to the phrase.
Hi Noah! Yet another great great avdanced video lesson! Thanks a lot for your work, really appreciate it! I bought 3 or 4 of your manuals. They are great and I really get the sense that you are trying to teach to both academic and non-academic musician. I am an academic musician, I am studying classical composition, so, sometimes I need to have more inputs from the "non classical" world and your lessons and books are what I was looking for! Even if I slightly understand jazz harmony and composition, the combination of your video lessons and the exercises is perfect: I have a reference to follow in case I'm lost (as you know better than me, sometimes classical studies don't focus on your ears and impro skills) and I also have some really great tips from this kind of videos. Great great works, thanks a lot Noah, really hope to get the chance to listen to you playing live (Hope my english is understandable. I'm not an english speaker and I didn't even check what I just wrote. ) P.S.: your Spotify playlist are dope too! Found a lot of good stuffs there! See next video!
Hey Daniele, thanks for the kind words! I understood your English perfectly. So happy to hear you are finding the PDFs and lessons helpful! I can definitely see how you could have some really interesting applications of jazz material for your composition. Keep it up and thanks for the comment
super tempting to go across all of your uploads and create one long medley of your playing, with some lower-volume interlacings of the explanations maybe a bit washed out in reverb like thought. beautiful stuff
Do you have any suggestions for passing chords from tonic to chromatic mediants or chromatic mediants back to the tonic? See the first few bars of “Out of Nowhere” or “Bye Bye Blues” for examples of this use of chromatic mediants. Passing chords which don’t sound like a reharmonization in this context have stumped me.
Really nice! Thanks! If you're playing with a band or bass player, will these motions still work, if the other players stick to the written progression?
Great video. I really enjoy using voicings and substitutions from the half whole diminished scale. You can swap any of those dominant chords for another, this works especially well going to a major or dominant chord. Liked your sus movement to the V7b9. I have some questions about the dominant from the step below, are you normally playing altered voicings? Reminds me of Nardis and I usually play some sort of altered voicing but I'm wondering how you approach it.
Hey Luke, I think most commonly I do a dominant with a #11 from above, and sometimes an altered from the half step below, but I'm not at a piano atm so I'd have to sit down and experiment a bit more to give you a full answer. Hope that helps though for now!
I'm definitely going to watch this video more than once. These are some solid ideas. I'm wondering what you might do to spice up a song without that much movement as body and soul though. Like a modal piece for example
Hey everyone, I'm faaaaaar away from a well studied musician who knows any and everything about music theory (idek how to come up with a simple triad lmao) skipped the very basics and jumped into the jazz theory because my main focus is RnB, little side story. My real question is, just to understand it is let's say I'm in C major scale and I'm doing a I-IV chord movement. To spice it up I drop a quick 2-5 between Cmaj7 and Fmaj7, so I have Cmaj7 - Gmin7 - C7 - Fmaj7. Now, if I don't want to use the Gmin7 cuz it's boring to do a "regular" 2-5-1 for the spice, I can actually have a B9 or C#9 since the idea is to use a chord from half step below or above. Do I understand it right? Let me know please and Noah, thank you for the video. Super informative, the only reason that I don't completely understand it is because, I skipped studying music theory almost at all lol
Just one observation… At the beginning you mentioned that the chords were: “One, Five, One, Four” I think that may be very misleading for some beginner students. That is actually best described as 2-6-2-5 in the key of Db Or //two// //five of two// //two// //five// in the key of Db. Great work by the way!🙏👍
I’m am, what I would consider myself to be a pretty damn good composer, but when Noah Kellerman plays.. that’s when I realize.. I’m not 🤣 So fkn awesome man. 💪🏽🎶
Superb, u deserve much more views, i think u can do a cover of some most popular songs nowadays in your own jazzzy way to attract more viewers and promote the channel even more cuz u deserve much more viewsssss!!!!!!
i want someone to teach me piano for this level in person this video tutorials look fire but they just don't seem to get in my head although I am Cmajorist looking forward to expand vocub
Despite knowing my fair share about everything youve discussed in the vide i had a bit of a hard time following .... need to get better hehe .. so essentially, i can insert a passing chord by placing a half step below OR above tritone sub which must be a dominant or altered chord that works with our melody note (meaning the melody note should be a pleasant tension on said halfstep tritone sub) and then land on my target chord?
I would appreciate some notes lining out where in a melody or a bar you are referring to. It ia difficult (although ofc not impossible) to follow you here, if you are not familiar with the song
If I want pro-level chords, i would just use the Unison Audio MIDI Chord pack! It gives me pro-level chords and chord progressions I can use to instantly make my music pro-level! (and just to clarify, this is a joke from Tantacrul)
hahah I know... had to stop filming to figure it out so I figured hey, I'll just keep it, give our dog Lily a quick feature. Thanks though, got it back on pretty quick.

This is definitely one of the best openers you’ve ever had. Never heard a reharm of body and soul like this one. Keep up with the amazing content!
Thanks, Max, really appreciate that man!
Agreed! Beautiful!
Indeed!
that opener had so much soul. blown away
Thanks Parker 🙏
Nice Noah! I like the diatonic motion idea. Also the dominant 7 chord a half step underneath is really cool as a passing chord.
Thanks Jonny 🙏 appreciate you checking it out! My Dad is learning jazz piano so I actually suggested he check out your video as well. They make a good combo!
Also, the opener is insane. Too beautiful. Modern day legend Noah
When you suddenly went from a Fmin7 to a C/E I jawdropped. I didn´t know that C could produce a melancholic effect in this context
such a super cool lesson! thank you so much Noah
Most most resourceful/knowledgeable instructor since the late Mark Levine.
Thank you Walter that means a lot 🙏
OMG common its not even fair, i see you lining up all those chords progressions meanwhile im stuck feeling like there are only 5 or 6 possible 😭😭 youre so great man keep it up please
When he says "SO easy" in my head I think "I'm completely lost"
Body and Soul was already sublime. Now Noah has made it more so. I know a nice trick or two for this one, but Noah makes my jaw drop. 👋

Thank you so much for this lesson. The explanations were clear and you really made this classy and pro!
Hey, you're welcome Karen!
First person I can actually learn from on TH-cam. Wow
I'd love to be able to apply these concepts to my guitar playing
Extremely useful lesson, and I appreciate that you refrained from hyperbole in the title. The content and your reputation speak for themselves.

This voicings sounds nice

Very true! Yeah wow... so much snow. Maybe that played a role in me thinking of using this tune. I'll have to check out Aimee's video!
mind blowing intro
Love ur videos so much but kinda have some difficulties following among 😅.
Will love it if u made a video like this in the key of cmaj.
Ooo, love this video. Also, during the Diatonic motion portion of the video, I threw in an A Maj 9 chord before the Ab chord. Voicing it with the tonic of the next chord on top brought some great color to the phrase.
Great lesson.
Just what I have been needing! Many thanks!
ooh nice! you "had me" at the 5th chord :)
Noah thank you so bro
Would love to hear that baby Grand in the background!
I agree with Max comment below - beautiful music to start this video Noah!

🙏 appreciate that. I like that idea too- Wonder if others would enjoy that. Definitely let me know if you ever decide to actually do it 🤣
@@NoahKellman so much easier to write it out than execute, right? :) but for sure if I do I'll let you know
thx for the clip. for better overview you should show which chords are the skeleton. thats bot so clear here.
nice job...simple technique explained logically and direct makes attempts at jazz achievable
Wow, this is some pretty good stuff. 😮
This substitution will be good in gospel as well. Really nice voicing
This is fantastic.. Tq.
Really great stuff!😎

Great content best teacher
Thank you for such great content! It means a lot to me.
Do you have a Video we can learn these nice voicings?
Great content! 👌🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
Triple thumbs

SWEET
Genius!
Thanks glad you enjoyed it!
@@NoahKellman You're welcome. Thank you too!
Hi Noah! It possible to have the chords of this exercises in pdf?
Whoa I’ve never caught these this early haha. Nice stuff man dig your channel
Thanks, appreciate that! Haha glad you caught it quick.
Wow this got me to subscribe 🤓😯
great thx
You're welcome!
What piano sound do you use?
If I want pro-level chords, i would just use the Unison Audio MIDI Chord pack! It gives me pro-level chords and chord progressions I can use to instantly make my music pro-level!
(and just to clarify, this is a joke from Tantacrul)
hahaha just looked up the chord pack so now I get it!!
Hello,could you put a subtitle in spanish for the explanation??thank you god bless you
Can someone please tell me what that software is that writes the notes and chords while he plays?
great tutorial, loved this one a lot and surely I'm gonna use these "tricks"
In the first example did you mean Bb sus4 instaed of F…?
What keyboard do you use? I’m going to be out of college soon and have the money to seriously upgrade my keyboard and I’m not sure how to look
0:59 you can see the keyboard (red). Looks like it’s a Nord Stage 3. Very high-end.
Lol that ending. Hope the power came back quickly.
hahah I know... had to stop filming to figure it out so I figured hey, I'll just keep it, give our dog Lily a quick feature. Thanks though, got it back on pretty quick.
Is there a melody to that?
Why the enharmonic third of the chord throughout?
I wanna see your dog 😍❤🤓
I clicked on the wrong video 😂 to advanced for me but I can dig it,
