All your videos are so darned useful. But this is like when, as a kid, you finally crack the ability to read sentances rather than groups of words. Ahsante sana!
Great lesson Adam using rhythmic elements to milk a progression for everything it's worth. A concept in creativity and freedom that musicians struggle with.
Amazing and so incredibly helpful! What's most impressive is that it seems like you shot this in one take. Just sat down in front of the camera and started recording. What took you 40 min to record took me probably 6 or 7 hours of stopping and restarting to get through. Cant wait until you upload one that goes through what the left hand is doing when youre "putting butter on your eggs" XD. This video has made practicing even more fun.
this is incredible and ive requested more on the shorts video for the chord connectors, it has evolved my playing enormously because it was very plain before, so thank you very much!
I swear every time I have a thought about something I want to work on you come out with a video on it IMMEDIATELY after. I'm gonna need you to stop reading my mind Adam, or actually keep doing it
superb instruction and full of great ideas . I think there was a hit by Maria Muldaur ( spelling escapes me , sorry ) or another girl singer n the 70-80's where these things were applied to great effect. My vague recollection is that you are spot on and totally correct ...this occurs in ALL styles and it is so well established in one style or another over the centuries, that parts of it are more or less what happens in Preludium In C by Bach I reckon. ( would you agree or not ? ) . Adam I love all your lessons and although I am well and truly past it and now too ill for much live playing and also getting a bit geriatric, I still enjoy just listening and applying what I still can from all the vast amount of info you and your witty colleague are giving us on this website. Greetings and many, many thanks from an Australian ex pat living in Huddersfield , West Yorkshire . Molto bravissimo, muchos gratias... or simply one big gigantic thank you mate.
I thought this was going to be about the harmonic connections between the chords. It’s easy to imagine a chord progression just being C F Am G and then adding those connecting chords in between adds a lot of variety and interest. This is still great but I thought that was worth pointing out too.
I have been listening to you for a while and has been blessed. I was just talking to my son about you staying on the one chord so so long in one of your videos! Then this live video popped up. ❤. Only wish you used some software to highlight the notes you are playing. 😊
@@OpenStudioJazz Thank you for prompt reply. I asked you as I have some problem to play chords and melody with one hand only, sometime it creates tension on my right hand. Maybe should I practice for a while to be familiar ? However it is a real pleasure to study and play together with you.
Too funny but very good I use a very similar progression (one alt chord) for warmup in each key I'm playing music for in a weekend to refmailiarize my fingers and muscles to the feel of the key.
The answer is YES! The most powerful sus chords are the ones that have simultaneously a I and IV over V. That being said, if you are into using poly triads, which I am, then you’re going to have two C notes in there. To reiterate: you should have these notes in there (from the bottom): G (bass) then (in both hands) GACFGCEG. This poly chord should spread over two octaves. I play every sus chord like that. Remember, you t requires a bit more technique to play like that as you need to hit the bass and hit these eight notes on top. Hope that helps.
A.M GPS - Adam, you'd better get a TradeMark on that terminology or something really quick and write a couple of music theory books using this terminology. Trust me on this one..
My brain is not clicking on how that's a G7 sus4 chord. I can't see how it's not a G7 sus2. Please someone explain! (I'm fairly new at learning so please don't troll me lol)
I will recommend some channels to understand music for real, by far these channels made the whole music theory a piece of cake for me These 2 links explain all the chords theory and the sus chords. th-cam.com/video/2SeN9W1CIrI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HJitQsDufYDTQiX8 th-cam.com/video/qu49nYaBfdM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=i7uFAxbHcjEbVZE- And the these channels for music theory www.youtube.com/@zombieguitar th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=ricky+comiskey www.youtube.com/@fretjamdotcom www.youtube.com/@WriteASong O hope this would help you through your music journey 😊 good luck 😊
@ferialsouhail I'm still confused. He has the notes G, F, A, and D labeled as a G7 sus 4. But if it were sus 4, wouldn't it be C and not A? A is the 2 in a G chord. Not the 4. Am I missing something here? Lol
My music theory knowledge runs pretty deep. I'm about 450 hours into learning the piano, but I have like 20 years of experience with other instruments. I do believe a G7 sus 4 would have the notes G, C, D, F. But his notation says G, A, D, F (but inverted to G, F, A, D) That is 100% a G7 sus 2 in my mind lol
I am referring to the second to last chord. I agree that the very last chord is labeled correctly as a G7 b9 sus 4. The one right before it is the one getting me. Lol I think maybe it's a typo

So hip! This is my trip! Brilliant! Can’t let this one slip!! Adam, thank you so much!!!
This is probably the most helpful video I’ve ever watched for piano. Thank you!
This is great for accompanying a singer or soloist.

You're an excellent teacher. Thank you for the passion and the excellent content.
Great stuff Adam!❤

Thanks much. I love practicing with my Rhythms on my Kawaii digital piano.
They work equally as well as the drum beats youve used..
Somehow chord connections come natural to me once you give me the chords .... :)
Me too. So much of it is instinct.
You can use the C pentatonic scale and F minor 6 pentatonic scale (E7#9, E/G,G7flat9 sus) over all the chords to solo. Pretty vibey.

Belgrade Maine, thank you I enjoyed this lesson. May I ask what keyboard you’re rocking? Microphone? Really great vocal tone.

Why is the 1st G7 a sus4 when there's no 4th in the voicing? Shouldn't it be labeled a sus2?
Hello from India
Adam excuse me are you using the sustain pedal during these exercises ?
Usually not. If so, it’s feathered very carefully.
@@OpenStudioJazz Thank you for prompt reply. I asked you as I have some problem to play chords and melody with one hand only, sometime it creates tension on my right hand. Maybe should I practice for a while to be familiar ?
However it is a real pleasure to study and play together with you.

I really wish that you guys had virtual keys
Where can I download the PDF??
So im jazzing by rocking and rolling?

The G7(sus4) confuses me. Shouldn't there be a C in there somewhere?
The answer is YES! The most powerful sus chords are the ones that have simultaneously a I and IV over V. That being said, if you are into using poly triads, which I am, then you’re going to have two C notes in there. To reiterate: you should have these notes in there (from the bottom): G (bass) then (in both hands) GACFGCEG. This poly chord should spread over two octaves. I play every sus chord like that.
