What I love about this technique is the second you hit those chords, they instantly sounded classic. Very cool.
Art by Atlas Thanks for the comment! and I'm glad you "get it". It is a classic sound. Love your art, subscribed to your channel!
+Kent Hewitt Many thanks!
Yes, it's absolutely wonderful. My fave technique.
I've had THAT sound firmly imprinted in my head since I was a little boy. I've never seen it so clearly explained ! Thanks a lot! This is one of the best videos I've ever seen!
Thanks so much...your wonderful comment keeps me going!!
This is a tutorial a little advanced player can understand, please keep going!
Wow, you have a very impressive collection of lessons. And not only that - each one of them is very well done. Kudos to you, sir!
+Multishape Thanks, I'm not sure if you are referring to my new feature categorizing my videos here:th-cam.com/channels/dmjw5sm9Kn83TB_rA_QBCw.htmlplaylists
Kent Hewitt Actually, I was just referring to your videos in general, but now that you mention it, those are some nice categories that surely make navigating easier.
Thanks for letting me know; for some reason I did not even think about clicking the 'playlists' section... :D
+Multishape Hey Multishape, you are the 1st person that has sent me a note about my new feature. I'm really happy to hear your reaction. It took quite a bit of work to organize this, so I'm very grateful to you for the response. THANKS!
You are amazing smooth player .Thank God for you and your videos.FANTASTIC
That's a great comment and much appreciated. Please keep watching and writing!
many thanks for this tutorial . do you have chord sheet for this??? this would it make easier for me. I am very interested in this tutorials you do!!! do you have a skript or a book to buy? lovely greetings sonja
...and i like it really very much listen to your sound on the piano! ( i hope you understand my english🤗)
Hi there's a sheet for locked hands for another Shearing tune, and another for drop 2 voicings for this song. Go to Free Downloads.
What I like here is you not only show how but why - whether it’s called non diatonic, secondary altered dominants or just what sounds best, there’s no denying the power of the diminished “shapes” whether open or closed voicing. Then, add to that your super Locrian scale and a whole new path “to the moon” and beyond becomes available!
Great comment. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the arrangements and exercises on your website. They really pick on one technique and help polish it. Love from India 😊
Thank you so much for a wonderful comment...it is very helpful for me.
Hi Ken, my sixteen year old daughter recommended you to me. You are just great. You've explained in a a very clear way what to do. Keep it going. We are both here in Ireland clued to your lessons.
+olwen carolan Very cool. She's about the age I really started getting interested in jazz piano. Get some vinyl, it's popular again. All the best!
Thank you so much for this. This is so unbelievably useful and helpful. Can't thank you enough!
I'm so glad to hear....thanks a lot!
Beautiful! Reminds me of alot of those "old movie matinee" feeling i used to experience watching old romantic movies with my Grandparents as a kid.
+jason johnson That's a great memory. The music in the old movies are an inspiration to me...Woody Allen often used that type of piano style in his movies. Go here for more: th-cam.com/play/PLFuMibnl_h5YhoyXP4QNF4a48BOWxT7VQ.html
Great day! Got around to playing Pokemon GO and now I'm stumbling across so many great channels. Found an amazing new theoretical physics channel, then a great small time Engineering channel, and now this very well written and shot piano tutoring channel. Great stuff!
弾いてみます！！🎵
This is an excellent tutorial!
Glad you think so!
Kentof your demos with improv are superb.
Thanks for this tutorial sir.
You are most welcome.
I love the way you make it become so simple to understand!
Thanks!
+Thành Phạm That's the kind of comment that is very helpful to me. Thanks!
I never thought that with my limited piano skill and knowledge that I could play or even understand whats going on in Jazz playing, until these videos. Love them and its easy enough to understand as well i find. Always loved to hear the lock hand and that drop 2 technique.
Maybe you could do a video with this technique on All Of Me. That would be interesting too to watch and try.
Really helpful tutorial and ties in with the information in your book. Love the sound and variation in technique.
+John Davidson Thanks, John, I appreciate your comments. I also appreciate that you got my book. All the best!
Dear Ken, I like to thank you for your beautiful work. Please keep going!
Thanks for the encouragement!
Ooh i will try this!
Hope you like it!
Thank you for a good video, now that I'm retired, I'm trying to improve my piano skills a little bit to sound "jazzier"! I was always aware of George Shearing and his talents even 50 years ago, but my knowledge took a quantum leap when George was in town (Denver) and came to the radio station I worked at for an interview! (around 1973) So suddenly it was Don Mueller chatting with George Shearing for 17 minutes! (it's on youtube) I decided to impressed George with the fact that "The Shearing Sound" became a familiar phrase, even a music library we used at the station had one of their commercial music beds named as "The Shearing Sound". He was impressed -- so impressed that he sued the record company $100,000 for copyright infringement!! But I've since come to realize that this guy was a musical genius, he could play all sorts of styles!
Don, I'm glad to realize that. Shearing is one of my piano heroes...he's in my top 5 list. He was knighted in UK, but didn't even show up on the Downbeat Hall of Fame. It's a mystery to me .Please subscribe.
@@KentHewittpiano88 My interview with George is at th-cam.com/video/cpVECCN3_7A/w-d-xo.html He was a very affable person, I saw his show that night. "Sorry I'm late, but it was my turn to drive..." I was very impressed with his range -- he not only did jazz, but did classical, ragtime, stride, honky tonk, and the more I found out about him, the more impressed I was!
Great byrds eye view lesson.
Fantastic demonstration thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Beautiful! I get really fascinated with how music can be brillant! Thanks for all those really valuable informations!
+Thassio Paulo Tanks so much for watching and for talking the time to write to me with such a nice comment. That keeps me going!
I just need to sit at your elbow for he rest of my life!@ These are WONDERFUL tutorials!!!
Thanks for the great compliment!....you're very welcome to sit by my elbow anytime you're willing to come to CT. USA
So THIS is what I loved about George Shearing. I'm so-as the Brits would say and as fits perfectly here-GOBSMACKED that I couldn't figure out what Shearing was *doing* that made his playing so attractive to my (guitarist's) ear. And of course I heard it in Nat King Cole's playing and a couple of others' as well, but I had no idea there was a name for it-"Locked Hands."
It really is such an incredibly beautiful use of the piano and what I have secretly always wanted to be able to sound like on the piano. Alas, starting basically in my fifties, (now that YouChewed is here to assist), assures that I will never be able to play it anywhere near your prodigiously talented level.
But I can damn well try!
Since it now has a name, I can now research all there is to be found out about the "locked hands' technique, and the best place to find out no doubt will be your website!
Thanks...enjoy learning this technique. Milt Buckner was George Shearing's and Nat King Cole's inspiration. But they took it to another level and everyone after that (Bill Evans, Ahmad Jamal, Oscar Peterson, etc.) th-cam.com/video/5wR_9T-fx94/w-d-xo.html
George Shearing created a whole new jazz quintet sound by having the guitar and vibes double the melody line in octaves and the piano played the melody and chord in the right hand and the melody doubled an octave lower in the left hand. Genius!
Thanks so much! Your teaching technique is so easy to understand. It's simple but sounds so magnificent!
Thanks you so much for telling me!
I'd love to see a drop 2 video on Fly Me to the Moon, it sounds amazing!!
+Jo G Many big Thanks!! I'll put that on my list because it's a great suggestion!
Bravo.
Many thanks!
Sheesh, nice work
Appreciate it!
Good tutorial
Thank you! Cheers!
Great stuff, learning a lot and looking forward to more!
+Louis orabona I'm starting playlists so you can pick out particular categories that you're interested in. Coming soon! Thanks!
Beatiful sound
Glad you dig my sound, brother!
thanks so much!!
You're welcome!
Great technic and thanks for sharing the secrets! It helps me a lot. And I like the "Drop Two" more, it sound richer.
Very classy sound ...I think. Thanks!
Thanks a lot
Most welcome
Thank you kindly, very informative, love the idea of using inversions to keep the melody line on the highest note. I use the technique sometimes on the guitar but never thought of using on the piano. I'm now off to practice, practice practice....
This is a great technique to learn and rather challenging to get it right.
Very helpful and clear. You must be spending an incredible amount of time recording these videos. A BIG thank you for this; I really appreciate all the work that you put into your fantastic tutorials.
Fortunately... I have the time. It actually takes more time than you'd think, because I have to do multiple takes before I get something that I like. That's because I'm very critical of what I do... and I make a lot of mistakes...sorry.... confession time!
That makes you even more likable. Yes, I can imagine that these recordings take a lot of time, even for someone as professional and experienced as you are. And I think that your subscribers appreciate every minute that you are putting into this. My deep respect, Kent.
Good to hear, enjoy and learn. thank you!
Thanks for the comment!
Awesome technique! Im working on Fly me to the moon! is just amazing!
Thanks for your videos!
I'm glad you enjoyed it and your comment is very helpful to me!
REALLY REALLY NICE!! GOOD!! Maybe many informations very quickly, but no problem to who really wants learn
+Lucas Victor I appreciate your comment and I hope you will benefit from my videos...some are slower and others faster.
I loved this video! Kent you have improved my playing so much! Your tutorials are by far the best on youtube. Keep it up!!
Thanks so much for the compliment and support. Keep watching!
Don't ya just luv seeing skill in action! :) Thanks for making this vid and explaining the technique so well.
It doesn't seem skillful to me, because I spend the 1000's of hours practicing it, but forgot.
Loving all of your videos Kent, thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge! As an aspiring jazz pianist, these are incredibly helpful.
+Charles Weller I'm so glad to hear that. ....and many thanks for the really nice comment. These are the things that keep me going. Please subscribe and keep listening.
thanks for this video this gave me instant ideas to expand my piano playing. adding more tools to my box. again thanks.
+ARCODEMUSIC I learned a lot listening to Ahmad Jamal (and George Shearing). Ahmad has all the tools. Thanks for the comment!
+Kent Hewitt I've also heard this being done in Bill Evans playing. I'll definitely check out Ahmad Jamal.
+ARCODEMUSIC Try to listen to his early stuff...a good album is But Not For Me (Live At The Pershing). It has the definitive version of Poinciana.
Your content is invaluable! Thank you for an a excellent resource.
I'm glad you like what I do...that means a lot to me!
merci beaucoup
Thank you too!
Beautiful demonstration - many thanks :)
+D r Jezz You are welcome. Thanks for the comment!
thank you so much. this is a great technique.
Thanks for the comment and support...appreciated!
Bravo!
Humble thanks!
Thank you !!!
You're a great teacher !!!!
Appreciated!
Grande conhecimento compartilhado aqui!!
Very good and clear enough, Cheers!!
Cheers to you and thanks so much for the affirmation!
Thanks so much for really taking the time and breaking it all down for us! I am talking about all of your videos I've watched so far.
This is definitely top notch level and very inspiring! It helps a lot being really aware of what you play, how and why (as opposed to just learning from sheet music - and professional sounding piano arrangements are hard to find outside classical music). Thanks again for your time and effort!
+Christian Schonberger Thanks so much, I really value your thoughtful comment. Making these videos is not easy, so when someone like yourself expresses appreciation, then it becomes very gratifying, and this is the kind of feedback I need to keep me going. Please subscribe and keep listening!
+Kent Hewitt Well I have to thank you! Of course I already subscribed and will follow your great lessons and learn. Thanks again!
i prefer the spread vocings technique but this is great to learn too!
Spread voicings are more important, as a basis, this is just another technique that
is good to know.
excellent video. thanks for sharing.
+Evan Wardrop It is my pleasure. I'm glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for this! I loved it! I improved my skills in piano!
That's great! Please subscribe!

gracias amigo
***** My pleasure. How do you say?
cool!
Thank you!
Please make a video covering "Fly me to the moon" in your own style. It'd sound so perfect
Thanks for the request...I have 2 versions of that song so far, using 2 different techniques.
Alright, I'll look into it immediately. Thank you for your answer! :D
The whole technique in a nutshell between 1:52 - 2:11 always loved that sound but it never clicked with me what exactly was going on. Great explanation!
Thanks for the affirmation. Barry Harris talks about this in his diminished 6th scale video. As your ears become more trained to the intricacies in chords, you begin to hear that most of this sound is 6th chords and diminished chord approaches which are really a form of V-I progressions and inversions of same.
would you ever do a full tutorial on this? i would die for it. i have fell in love with the locked hands technique but i cant seem to make the chords out because some are dimenished and its really hard for me to make them. i just want to learn the loop you did at the beginning of the video. thanks a lot. keep up the awesome work.
It's on my list...thanks!
Kent Hewitt awesome!! super pumped! so glad you're doing stuff like this. it really helps us out you know?
rylothh 基督教 I like to mix single notes and chords in.. I just mix it .. some movements are harder at first.. so consider doing almost all the chord s and the rest may be easier.. may help.
Great , thank you . I had been pratcung the C scale with this style , also in drop two. I've never heard clarified how to play a whole song . Especially what to do when the chord changes. Like when you are on d minor , you use D minor and c# diminished . I've been trying Polka Dots and Moonbeams in F , which has a scalar melody too . This is going to improv my playling a lot , Kent, thanks .
Doug, that's the idea. Please watch my video on translating this technique from Barry Harris" seminars. th-cam.com/video/AF67azWnMvw/w-d-xo.html Also this one: th-cam.com/video/E3BnZ1ZtsMs/w-d-xo.html

Sir Duke....inspiration to you, my friend!
Thank u soooo much
you are great!
+Villy Kase Great of you to say so...thanks!
my father was a famous jazz musician in my country and Europe and I love music and my father was playing a piano very well and when I see the way you play ,I see only high class. So even a blind man can say great :) ,because :)) he can hear the beauty of the piano performed by a professional
+Villy Kase Thank you very much, sir. Where are you from?
Very nice kent! You are really harmonizing the melody. Seems like you do it with your left hand as well and at times playing the root. Really nice.
+Jose Colon I put the root in there because you're hearing it as a solo piano interpretation and that helps to ground it harmonically. If you are playing with a bass player, playing the root would not be so necessary (perhaps). Thanks!
ahhhh..understood. Thank you!
The explanation is a bit too advanced for me, is there a video (or videos) of yours that prepare me to come to this level? Thanks!

@@KentHewittpiano88 Thanks for replying! I've been taking lessons for around 6 years, so far I can play pieces by reading the sheet and memorizing the music but would love to understand what my fingers are doing the way you explain it...
Who thought of and decided that it would be alternating 6th and Diminished chords throughout a song? I would think it would be the exact chords in a song. I can understand that the 6th and diminished gives it a unique sound. Isn't bebop the same style?
Milt Buckner is credited for developing this concept. It has been used by composers and big band arrangers for many years.as a way to harmonize a melody line with full sounding chords. The melody is brought out by having it played in octaves. Milt wrote for big bands and used this technique to write for the horn and reed sections. It's also a classic piano sound that all the greats have adapted. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milt_Buckner
Great stuff. I understand that from a diatonic standpoint you build these chords as basically alternating 6th voicings and diminished chords. My question is when harmonizing a melody do you use the scale (or its overall key) of the chord that would be occurring during that point in the melody OR do u harmonize based on the overall key of the song.
I'm inclined to think the former based on this: Fly Me To - seems to be coming from a C Major but
The Moon - is coming from an F set of these locked hands style chords.
Am I making any sense and if so/not, are u able to answer my question?
+Edward McKenna Good question, and you're right, it is the former. The melody of the song is diatonic (fits a c scale or a natural minor scale except for a couple of notes, one being the G# which alters the V chord of Am tonality so that the V is dominant and the G# is the "leading tone".) However the diminished chords work well as approach chords to whatever chord you are moving to because the melody note is a "passing tone" rather than a chord tone. So the passing chord or approach chord (is this case diminished) then has a particular relationship to the scale of the chord it is approaching. Otherwise you could play all the passing chords voiced exclusively with chord tones of the c major scale and the effect would not be anywhere near as interesting. Do you understand?
+Kent Hewitt soooooooo basically straight up chord scale stuff. If it's a minor chord u play min7 on the chord tones and diminished in between. If it's major (or dominant) chord tones get sixth voicing and non chord tones get diminished chords.
Lastly, approach new chords with the diminished of the anticipated chord as opposed to the previous chord.
Am I correct? I just need to understand the system.
+Edward McKenna The diminished chord should have an approach (chromatic) relationship to the chord it's approaching ie. Gbo moves to Gm6. It can also approach from above like Abo - Gm7. There's other varieties that work differently.
Thanks for that video.
Is this basically an application of what Barry Harris called the "Maj6thDiminished" scale or system? It sure enough sounds like it.
I see a LOT of presentations and "explanations" of that subject, but IF so, THIS HERE would be the first APPLICATION I ever found. Thanks and YES, I would love to see more on it.
I play pedal steel guitar, on a "Jazz"-tuning and this alternation between M6th/m7th and diminished chords is very easy to access for me!... J-D.
And my 11 year old son who just worked thru your video an hour ago, would like to take you up on your offer to go further into this, Mr. Hewitt. Thanks!... J-D.
Yes, I made more videos on the Barry Harris concept and explain the diminished 6th scale in detail here:
th-cam.com/play/PLFuMibnl_h5bUYKZ6wbYImc5buA4ENw-B.html
Hey Kent, this looks a lot like the Barry Harris method, what are some of the differences?
cool thanks!!!
+Jamie Higdon Your welcome and glad you liked it!
Thanks for the detailed explanation of inserting diminished chords on non chord tones. I'm self taught from books, and the only previous exposition I read on alternating diminished with chord tones kept to one scale, the major be bop scale, for example presented by Marc Levine. So I was stuck with the C major / A minor Be Bop scale and the Ab note for the whole tune. I see you used a different diminished chord from the first for the next non chord tone, the fourth note in the melody. Now it makes sense to my ear. But I think the different diminished chords define different scales. Maybe not for Locked hands, but what about for an improvisation over that diminished chord?
+David Swaddell The diminished chord is approaching the next chord so the theory has to apply whether ascending or descending in the melodic line. Improvisation is different in that I prefer to simplify the chords so that the ideas will flow better. Thanks for the comment!
Kent do a few more examples from the standards and apply those rules, a bit slower please as sometimes things get lost in the explanation, but in other words, you are doing a great job with your video work here. Thanks again. Peter
Super ! :)
Super wishes!
OK thanks is thé book explain thé vidéo?because im french and it s difficult to listen to me .
good days
+Drak Tigre You can see language option at bottom on youtube. You can change language as you wish. See this video for explanation: th-cam.com/video/-1LIRkCfFwMY/w-d-xo.htmlou can go to my website and get a free download of the locked hands technique Lullaby of Birdland. This particular topics is not in my book. You can view all the topics on the table of contents listed under My Book category. www.kenthewitt.com/
So you're not using your pinky finger for the melody note all the time. What technique do i practice to incorporate other fingers for melody note
Practice your scales and major scale in particular. Watch my videos on fingering. I hope they will help.

Hi I definitely got alot out of this but at 137 in to this sounds like the wrong chord can you tell us if that is correct ?
or what it should be
Many
Thanks
I kind of "fudged" it, which means I was thinking of the lower octave and at the last minute decided to play the melody note in the upper octave. So it wasn't clean...and rather than recording the whole song over again, I let it go, because I liked the way I played the rest of it. Now, you showed up and caught me. Will you forgive me? (just kidding!) Here's a free score with the melody written out for you :www.kenthewitt.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/flymetothemoondrop2.pdf
Hey Kent Thank You so much for responding and for the free score.You are very talented and a great inspiration to all of us.Again many many thanks to you and your efforts!!!!!
Thanks for your video demos. Can you explain how to use the pedal along with the locked hand Shearing chords. Do you pedal every chord played or ...?
Stube Ring Use the pedal sparingly and carefully with this technique so you get clarity from chord to chord. Only when the tonality is the same can you sustain. I like to use the pedal for a legato sound in jazz, but have to be careful using it too much w/ locked hands. Your ear will tell you what sounds good. Thanks for asking!
Do you have sheet music for this posted on your website? This is great and I'm practicing just need to figure out a couple of diminished chords towards the end of video. Thank you!
+singforgod100 I didn't have a score for this piece as it was played from memory. If I get some time, maybe I can write one out sometime. Thanks!
+Kent Hewitt Yes do that! I can't find anything good on the internet for free
I love that song can you put the score in your website?
Dude, you forgot to mention Red Garland as a master of locked hands.
+neuromantoo You're right Thanks for pointing that out. . Red Garland could be considered as one of the underrated piano giants just like maybe Hank Mobley on tenor. I think of Red's signature sound as the left hand block chord supporting the octaves with harmony in the right hand. He certainly was great and I should listen more to him...which you obviously do...thanks!
Solid!
Isn't this called Shearing voicing style? Thanks.
Yes, this is a style of playing that is associated with George Shearing.
I understand what you say, but mind does not comprehend as you say it. These are all new terms for me and it takes while for brain to kick in the meaning of what you're saying. Meaning, of words, comprehension is not as fast as sound yet. I am trying to learn.
Please watch my video on slowing down the video. Also please watch my Beginner Jazz Series and Easy Jazz Lesson ...they are in my playlists ...they might be helpful, because it's a lot slower.
th-cam.com/video/07Qlhd_-p0s/w-d-xo.html
Hi Very great commentGood help for meTank sHenri
great lesson! is the d flat dim chord into the d min chord really an A7 b9 b13?
+Carroll Valenzuela Thanks!.....yes, depending how the diminished chord is functioning, it is often the upper 3/4 of a dominant 7 b9 chord. Therefor A7b9 would function like a C# or Db diminished chord resolving to D minor. There's no b13...that would be augmented. The diminished chord often would substitute for the dominant chord but move chromatically in the bass. See my video on Here's That Rainy Day.
Very nice. I notice that, in your left hand, you play the black keys with your thumb. Normally, I only play a black key with the thumb when there are no other options. Is your choice strategic? (Does it make it easier for you?)
John, you know I just went to the piano and tried this and I didn't use just the thumb in the LH. It must have been what I preferred at the time or was most comfortable for me at the time. I always say... use fingering that works best for you. I can make suggestions... but it still is a personal thing. Check out my Donna Lee tutorial (#2) and the chart in which I wrote out all the fingerings. Thanks!

Would I be right in saying that Erroll Garner used this alot too?
Yes, I agree! Thanks!
Wonderul video! If you don't mind me asking, is it possible if you can give me a link to the sheet of music for Fly me to the Moon used in this video?
Thanks! I only have the score for the drop 2 version of this song. Try going to Lullaby Of Birdland for the score using locked hands. kenthewitt.com/free-music-downloads
Hi Kent , Thank you again ...Where can i go to down load this.?
+Edwin Keys Sorry, I don't have a score for that one. But there are other videos on my list with scores that demonstrate this technique notably Lullaby Of Birdland. Thanks!
Hello Kent, can you play the Fly me to the moon solo that you have in your free download sheets please?
