      @chasezwartz8796 4 года назад +5

      María Zambrano yeah I think that playing advanced jazz guitar is probably the closest thing outside of fingerstyle arrangements to playing piano because you're simultaneously playing the chord, walking bassline and extraneous melody lines within the scale as well as rhythmic percussive elements sometimes. You could "learn" basic piano with "just a couple of shapes" as well but your playing would lack nuance or any interesting complexity

      @@chasezwartz8796 i am very late to your comment, but i just wanted to express my appreciation towards this comment because its so true how advanced piano playing can be, ESPECIALLY when it comes to jazz because there is just so much that you need to know and absolutely think about while playing. Like yes, it could be easy to learn piano and you can have a good understanding of how chords work and stuff, but once you play arrangements that just have you playing bass lines, melody lines, AND v percussive rhythms, its just an entirely different level of musician knowledge and ability. its insane! but that is why i love piano so much.

Tyler mentions chords all the time but is ambiguous about what he acc does so hearing this is like the coolest thing ever to me.

    Most of the people complaining about the interviewer just don't like the fact that he talked about music theory, I get why people would dislike it, but I think he did a great job, most interviewers wouldn't have asked those questions. One of the best interviews I've seen recently, they talked about Alex's music, his influences, his songwriting, collaborations, how it all started. The only thing that was not totally right was about the cmaj7 lol, in the mainstream it's still not that common but it's been used a lot in bedroom pop and other genres, but i understand what he meant .
