Thank sooooooo much. This changed my life. I play by ear and learned Donna Lee 15 years ago, but never knew what exercises to do for increasing my vocabulary as far as bop. In the first 5 minutes of this tutorial you’ve changed my life as now I know the first 3 exercises I’ve needed for 15 years…. Bless you Sir!
Why am I just seeing ths excellent jazz video in 2024? You are an upper structure teazer. I caught that! Enjoyable video. I think I will just leave your entire playlist on so I dont miss so much!
it is a joy for me and I know that for anyone to find such an excellent teacher, thank you for the human contribution he makes and as a musician is magnificent, I wish him a very long life and in health doing what he loves the most.
It's getting to the point where there are a lot of good jazz piano piano tutorials on RUclips, but DAMN! This is as good as it gets IMHO. You are inspirational in your knowledge, skill, and willingness to share. Big, big thanks.
Can't always play a full size piano. I have a 72 key Casioa CTK 4200. Which emulates the feel of piano quite well.Also it seems to have the same distances on the keys. Exercises like this , can be done on a small key board...by college music students etc on a small keyboard. Love your channel. Thank you for the free resources. I am in the process of using various music editors to help me and others read music better. I recently copied a lick and it sounded very blah. Wasn't surprised. I do it much better on the piano. I know it's possible to emulate the sound but it would have be done with a combination stacato and emphasis arrows. rest etc. Have you any idea on how swing eighths and triplets can be duplicated on a digital interface.?
Yes, Tyler. My fingers sometimes press down more notes than what you can hear. This is due to my stretching technique. No way I could reach the 10th from Ab to C without this technique.
Woh! What a nice to see this lesson! I.ll try every day; I know b bop is not so dificout as it is painted by someone here. Thank you for poust and share us this wanderful thing. 🇧🇷
Simplemente maravilloso ¡¡ WONDERFUL... sire, Thanks for this, performance, you're a great Master jazz piano, tenga ud por seguro que hoy he aprendido mucho... Congratulations from México city...
I'm not a young man and I really want to learn to play Jazz. I have now started the cusus. The first exercises are tough, but I notice that I am making progress. I tried a lot through RUclips tutorials but it is never a complete education. Now I have found it, I am now certain that I will eventually learn it ... playing jazz tanks
Great Master,Thanks for this, and anothers performances, I learning with you, Thanks again,maestro ud es una persona completa como ser humano, gran pianista, creador e incluso improvisador en el piano... Y comparte ud lo que sabe... Congratulations god bless you, from México city
guitar tuning between the high g and b strings are such a pain- preventing very nice linear bebop lines line how piano's are played. if guitars are tuned in perfect 4ths then chords are a pain to play 😮
Snippets is the way I play. Also as a guitarist from age 12 ( my dad started me out on one string), playing melodies; I love to do songs like all of me and autumn. leaves. The base line follow the tune pretty strongly on autumn leaves. Anyways , snippets not running endless scales, a little chromatic here, a little harmonic minor.. just enough. Then over time the dexterity grows and maybe some want to play scale wise. I personally like snippets and only once in a while play whole scales.
Great teaching!! I am learning bits by bits of bebop, lounge music, voicings, etc, but when it comes to play a complete song for a singer, I mean improvising an intro, then comping for the singer, improvsie a bebop line as an interlude, comping again then ending .... I don't know how to apply. And I don't know if I switch to omitting the bass when a bass player is there when I am mostly practising 1-7 or 1-10 right now.
I didn't used to know about the bell. I rang it so now I get all the videos. Also Untill about six months ago. I did not know about the arrow to the right which opens up the description link and further allows you to provide free material etc. Some important comments. This is an excellent way to learn to read music. The pros instantly get a feel for it. There are so many places that teach how to read music.. but the best way is to remember the notes and what octaves there in Eg. C4 is C in the middle of the piano and the middle of the Trebble and Base cleff. Your sheet music is cCollege course in itself. For those that having trouble with the base cleff. Without looking at the chord.. try to figure out the notes of the cleff.. My copy shows a D and F .. this is a root base and minor third in the major scale of D..But don't try to understand all that if your new. Just look at the top chord Dm7..That tells you that you have a D in the base.. that's a key touchtone note.. The D is located top and bottom 1 1/2 spaces top and bottom from the bottom cleff. Now look at the G7.. The way jazz musicians see a G7 or G dominant chord is the 1 and b7..in every key. So a G7 is rep quite often by G and F. Notice the flat 7 or minor 7 is a whole tone down from the root. You can know the flat seven in an instant. For G scale it's F f, for D it's C , For C it Bb, ect. You learn about rest , triplets ect. This piece is a gem, a gold mine.. I literally have hundreds of pices of different genres and maybe a hundred books..some were bought used..I plan to keep this is my clip board. I also have made a watch now section called bebop so I can refer this video often .There is much more to say about this.. I'm texting this.. spellcheck has corrected many correct things.. hope I caught all it's errors.
awesome teaching...can you do a lesson first on how to use the all the different jazz scales over all the different 2-5-1 progressions. and second how to play and fingering all the scales over all the different chords...thank you...
Hello there. We've put the exercises on our website. Just follow the link in the description. You need a password to log in, but the exercises are free.
Hi, this is a great vid! However I clicked on the lick mentioned at the beginning at the description, got forwarded to your site and the download-link didn't work. Are the exercises still available? This would be lovely. Any help highly appreciated. Thanks!
Hello, Dirk. Yes, they are available. I don't know what could have happened, but I tried now myself and it seems to be working fine. See this video what you're expected to see: popjazzonline.d.pr/xngUNe ps: Could the landing-page have been blocked by your browser somehow?
This is great, but i can't get over your left hand ring finger range, i thought i had a decent range but i can't do major 9ths with thumb and ring finger.
Thanks for your comment. I’m using the ringfinger as I can’t reach the 10th with my pinky. If I could, I would rather use the pinky + thumb. However: many of my students thinks they can never be able to reach the 10th, but with som practice, many of them makes it anyway. 👌🎹
It shows. I'm playing around with a free app called Maestro today.i it's a sheet music editor ..I've done Bouree in E minor on it. it is hard to swing on it though. Working on beautiful brown eyes as a beginning tutorial for timing and getting familiar with the bass cleff. I had never seen it, but as d is symmetrical about the third line in the base cleff; so is b about the third line b in the Trebble. As D is the gift in base so is b in the Trebble. Like your channel. Thanks for the comment.
If you played like this in India ( where I'm typing this from ) , they 'll worship you with flowers in a temple built for you !!!! Bravo, super playing , How can I be your student??
Thanks, Harsha! A temple sounds great. Meditate and eat tikka masala all day long :) I've got more and more students in my jazz piano step-by-step course now. Check it out on my website if that's something you could be interested in. And, if you enjoy Lounge Jazz Piano: We'll have another course coming out February/March.

Thanks, finally helpful tips
Excellent. Thanks!
Excellent lesson! Very Cool style! 👍❤️
GREAT ! thank you. I am a jazz vocalist, but finding this very helpful for understanding the basic bebop format to scat on.
I learned that exercise at 5:00 from Sam Saxe in Hollywood in 1954 - that's a good one.
Incredible teaching and musicianship. Thanks for an amazing lesson!
🐝You're welcome!
Thankyou..you're great....it is a privlege

I saw how you did that Ab/C major 10th at 2:55 by pressing the B silently before the chord. That's genius! Definitely going to practice that.
Yes, Tyler. My fingers sometimes press down more notes than what you can hear. This is due to my stretching technique. No way I could reach the 10th from Ab to C without this technique.
The best jazz master on youtube thank you for amazing way to play and teach
This is absolutely wonderful stuff. You're awesome.
You are such amazing jazz pianist Sir 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Haha.. that was just a Cigar for the smoke-effect..
