Thank you Tony for the very instructive lesson and the amount of work you put into your channel. I especially appreciated that you supplied the sheet music as well. Makes it easier for people like me that are relatively inexperienced with open voicings.
Hi I'm a super elementary jazz learner and Always enjoy and learn a lot from your videos, much appreciate it❤ Have 2 questions: 15'10: your LH plays the passing chord after the Am7 before going to D7, how do you practice to derive it? Is it also a blues related technique? (I'm originally classical piano player) 16'20:RH improvisation solo reaching the Bflat - so so beautiful and I want to be able to play /freely come up like this.. is this an altered scale?? Any suggestions how I could familiarize myself with these run?😊❤ locking forward to your reply thank you so much in advance 🎉
@@emapooh2954 great questions. 1. The passing chord is Eb7. It can be described several ways. Yes it is a technique used in The Blues but also it is a reharmonization technique common in jazz standards. I will cover that in detail this weekend 2. Yes indeed that is the Altered Scale. Search 'altered scale tony winston' and hopefully my video on the subject will be suggested. To learn to use it, start with improvising II V I progressions using the altered scale on the V chord. 3. You've given me a great idea for a new video this weekend, thanks a lot.
I once said if I ever decide to try and learn Jazz again I wouldn’t do Autumn Leaves under any circumstances! Long story, but here I am! Only this time with a fantastic and inspiring teacher. As soon as I saw the playlist for this standard there was no way out of it. The tutorial on using the Bflat and Gblues scales to practice soloing over this is fantastic for me to get a feel for constructing a solo. I’m not ready for the advanced one on soloing, I’m still working through the Diminished and Altered scale lessons- they’re awesome! I think just those two lessons alone unlocked a fair bit of the mystery for me.
Hi Tony, It's excellent. Do you think you could transcribe the first solo? if it's too much "a p... in the a.." as you mention and what I can understand could you almost give the scales you use? What a pity you are not located in Paris (France) I would immediately take lessons with you. I wish you all the best
Very good Tony, thank you for sharing. Question regarding the "name". What is "open voicings" ? I consider to be the notes you choose to play the chords , as there are thousand ways of playing the same music. Am I right ?
You be right! 1001 ways... open voicing just means there is some space somewhere in the voicing. Most often the root is the bottom note and the chord is not a stack of thirds
Excellent and clear explanation! Don't worry about how your hands look from the aerial view of the camera -- it was really easy to see the keys you were pressing. Thank you!

What an awesome lesson, thank you for posting! Just started out with this tune, now I have more context and a goal. All the best!
Killer Tony!!! Love your open voicings…
