*every lofi producer liked this
legitimately THE best resource out there for learning jazz piano. like holy..... and everything this man puts together for his viewers FREE??? like this is QUALITY content. The format is perfect, the piano overlay at the top that highlights exactly what notes he's playing... just genius. Keep up the great work and keep teaching others how to better the world with music.
I’m so pleased I discovered your channel, Julian. Everything you do is so well put together. Such beautiful music. Thank you and keep it up!
Did anyone notice Usher "You remind me" melody reference?
Well spotted. I like to pepper in subtle musical quotes. That song's riff is a good demonstration of the pentatonic scale.
Damn I have to say this channel is very underrated. A lot has been done to make it look nice and very appealing.
I appreciate that Keshav. Thank you for your kind words.
If you have any musician friends who would also enjoy these videos, I'd really appreciate you sharing it.
I can't wait to post my next tutorial. Do you have any future requests?
P.S. The hardest part is coming up with clear titles that get the attention of jazz fans, opposed to general piano / music students.
@@jazztutorial I absolutely will share it. One thing I want to learn a lot is improvisation. What stuff are used, what should be considered when improvising over a chord progression. If I have the idea of what I can use and it what manner that would be really helpful.
@@jazztutorial yes that is true, jazz isn't very popular, but I'm really intrigued by it's complicated sounds and the smooth flow of improvised melodies
@@keshavleitan7800 Got it, more on improv. I can do that. Until now most of my material has been explaining music theorym but going forward I plan to talk more about composition (including improvised composition).
Great channel, will recommend it to my students.
Thank you so much Mike! I really appreciate you doing that. I'm glad you liked this one.
Love your videos
Thank you so much Kairifan, a ton of work goes into editing so that really means a lot. I'm so pleased these lessons help you.
Please do more compositional videos like this! There is nothing else on youtube that is so clear and understandable for this type of jazz music composing. I am thinking of getting your yearly subscription course. Does your piano course cover these topics of writing melodies and composition? Not just conventional walking baselines but the hype more modern baselines covered in this video? If so then I will be joining your membership today!
Nice!
Great lesson cool grooves and brilliant content thank you
This kind off stuff makes me going back to put my brain in music theory , my fingers on the piano and my heart into the groove . Man , thx !!!!!!!!!!!!
This is EXACTLY the kind of content I really want. So often I want to sit at my keyboard and just improvise/jam and I'm not sure exactly what to play. So many ideas here and the free download, awesome! Thanks a lot Julian.
Best explanation I've seen on yt!
I'm a guitarist dabbling with the keys and the is very helpful.
Thank you!
Thank you so much Tai. I'm so glad you liked this one. Did you see my previous 3-part series on writing Chord Progressions? This lesson was basically the bonus 'part 4' from that.
I have a question...
Why does he hit the Eb note while playing the rootless Gb7 chord (technically Gb9)? Its not a part of the chord. Does it serve a function?
Timestamp: 8:33
It’s the 13th of the chord making it a Gb13 chord. It doesn’t have a specific function, it just adds color
@@dylandiaz9243 ohhhh right thanks. But then shouldn't it be displayed as Gb13? I'm sorry I'm asking so many questions I'm pretty new to jazz.
@@dylandiaz9243 and also when he played the "Gb7" chord he omitted the fifth degree of the chord right? Was it because it didn't have a big impact on the sound of the chord or because he couldn't fit all the notes in?
@@keshavleitan7800 technically yes, but that would just be for specificity. In jazz you’ll often see a lead sheet label a chord as a G7 for example but you’ll actually hear a player use a G9 or a G13 unless specified otherwise with a b9 or #5 etc., allowing the player to use essentially any note of the diatonic scale as a way to add color, but it ultimately still functions the same 👍🏻
@@dylandiaz9243 ohhhh ok. Thanks a lot.😁👍
Useful information here. Gorgeous.
Thank you Andy! I appreciate your kind words.
Been waiting on video for that bass line Thanks Julian
Thank you Elsonn! I'm so pleased you liked the bass lines commentary. Do you have any requests for my upcoming videos?
Where can we find the beat ? Thanks for your videos soo helpful
crazy dope content, welcome back :)
Thank you so much ScarTee. It's nice to be back :)
Great lesson once again Julian. Well done. Thank you.
Thank you so much John! I'm really pleased you liked this one
King Dedede’s from the Kirby series theme is a great example of a melody in a minor pentatonic scale. :)
yet i don't understand it completely
i'm here crying because i know what i want to do with my life now lmao thank you so much
What would be the difference if i wanted to use Maj7 chords?
Greetings from Jazznet Spandau !
Tasty food for thought ! Very nice …
Great tutorial, very well explained. Thanks!
Thank you so much Theo. Do you have any requests for my upcoming videos?
@@jazztutorial hi Julian, using a small motif (or several motifs) as a building block on creating a solo would be great! Anyhow, thank you for all your efforts in making these videos👍
But remember, don't play the butter notes.
Why did you add Dbmaj9 around 2:13?
FINALLY I UNDERSTAND 😭
Hot damn I love a good bass line
your tutorials are so good
Please, tutorial blues in F. Thank you 😊🙏
This is beautiful
Julian, this video was grounding breaking to a new level for me. It really opened up my eyes
and now I can open up my music. Thank you so much . Your a treasure to us all that love Jazz.
Very Good Video...
Very good video.Aldrick from Gabon (Africa)
Thank you Aldrick!
coincidentally, i was playing around with the c minor scale just prior to watching this and i couldn't figure out why Ab sounded like ass. i never knew it was something to be avoided.
You are such a great teacher that don’t make piano a mystery ! I am playing saxophone and then I can move to jazz piano ! Thank you soooooooooo much ! A very generous guy ! A big salute and respect !💪🏻💪🏻
yoooooooooooooo the best!!!!!! you share the goodies, so much of my jazz keys have coe from your teachings thank you!!!!
You're Videos are put together so well. Im so happy to have found your Chanel. keep up the good work.
can someone recommend me some songs that have those nice chords and melodies?
Hi Julian! Thank you for sharing this extra content with us from your recent series -- great stuff, as usual. I am wondering, where can I listen to your original music, or see content of you in a live session? Are you on any streaming platforms?
Another great one Julian, i enjoyed it very much. Thank you!
Thanks for this! I play Chapman Stick, not piano, but the concepts should still apply.
That's great Bbacher, definitely - the jazz theory can be applied to any instrument.
showing the 9 1 3 4, etc. on the high notes was super helpful, thanks!
Great stuff,I like these kind of chords.
I was actually looking for something like this around a week ago! It's a really nice tutorial. I appreciate your hard work
Just thanks but THANKS A LOOT :)
Just beautiful, such a great work

This video is so loved and good that it doesn't have a single dislike!
🙏💫👍
Excellent material thank you so much
Thank you so much Motta. It's my pleasrue, I'm really pleased you liked this one / this series.
There’s a reason this has no dislikes.
Thanks so much for your help. Just a quick question: how do you choose your voicings? Like when to play shell/ open etc etc
Hi Matt, I choose voicings based on what the melody note is. I like to play a chord voicing that already has the melody note as its top note.
So if there's a C major 7 chord, and the melody note is D (the 9th) - I'll choose a voicing that already has the 9th as its top note (like a rootless voicing, C / E G B D).
Or if there's a C major 7 chord, and the melody note is G (the 5th) - I'll choose a voicing that already has the 5th as its top note (like C / B D E G for example).
And so on. That way you know you're playing a chord voicing which sounds great as it is. There's no doubled notes, no clashes with the melody or anything.
As I play through as jazz standard, that's how I voice it. Look at the chord symbol, look at the melody note, choose a voicing.
I call this technique 'melody matching'. I cover it fully in my free 'Chord Voicing Guide' which you can download here:

works OK for me
@@grahamsmith9788 Just tried it again and it still not working... I add my first name, email address.. click Send Now.. nothing happens. Looking at F12 debugger - there is never a POST being sent along... something is broken.. tried in Firefox and Chrome. Anyone else verify it is broken?
@@pesto12601 sorry, can't really help you, I just posted my reply that it was working for me, in case Julian might think that it was 100% at his end. It clearly isn't, but I appreciate that doesn't entirely help you!
@@grahamsmith9788 No worries.. just strange because I checked 2 browsers and there is no POST data being sent to the server for the form. Oh well.... thx for the update!
@@pesto12601 I'm running an iMac with Safari
Good job
Thank you Davit!
Worked on this for probably two hours today. I don't get some of it in theory (how a Db7 works in a C-minor scale) but it sounds good. And it's a lot of fun. Thanks!
See Julian's video for tritone substitution, then you'll get a good understanding for that. Db7 is the the tritone sub for G7 (V7).
@@osti1711 >headslap< Of course! Thanks.
I'm a lo-fi producer who can't play any instrument including the piano. But I'm going to try this on piano roll.
