    The first time I was told to do something like this made for really cool sound. What we were told to do is take a simple song like Happy Birthday or Twinke-Twinke and on EVERY note of the melody (including repeated notes) drop the bass note a half-step and find a chord to fit. Yes, of course good voicing leading too. Suddenly you have a melody everyone knows, but with some very hip or strange harmony.

      Yeah that's a great exercise for getting better at reharms!

    You changed my musical life from head to toe
    Before that, I wrote music only in triads, but after watching some of your videos, I realized that chords can be expanded, and progressions can be made richer
    Thank you very much for doing lessons for everyone who wants to learn jazz harmony, bro

    Sounds awesome Simon! Had great fun messing with this one.
    For the first progression, I tried moving the Eb back up to the E so it leads back to the Fm, something like:
    Fm11 E7#5#9 Ebmaj7(#11) Em7b5(add 11)

    For 4:50, how did you figure out what notes to improvise around the top line? Is it based on what chord you're currently on? Did you use some kind of logic on what notes would sound good on the melody besides just playing the G?

    A bowl of blisteringly hot chicken curry with rice and a PP vid....awesome!!
    Sounds great, Simon. Something to play around with for hours. My lack of voicings knowledge will mean I'll struggle, but that just means I know instantly where I can improve my knowledge!
    Your new space looks fantastic, love the upright!
    Hope you are settling in well in Bristol. :)

  • @dre7256

    Can someone please explain what key signature this is in ? I’m new to music theory and I’m used to using key signatures but this seems like we can use whatever notes we want, how would we compose this ? Or add a key signature to this ? If we want people to sing over this or know the key signature what would it be ? Thanks !

  • @alamolalamol9426

    Hi Simon. I have watched a number of videos on reharm methods, even another one on going down chromatically. I also watched one which encourages you to think about how the melody or top note relates to the bass one. I am grateful to you and all you other piano teachers on this platform for sharing your skills and tips. Now after watching THIS one, I finally ‘get it’. The possibilities and permutations are endless. THANK YOU.

  • @GoaWay4Sanity
    @GoaWay4Sanity 3 года назад

    *...so is it safe to say you can essentially play any combination of (4/5) notes under the top note of the right hand and it will sound good with the (4) chromatic bass notes?*

  • @arosonomy
    @arosonomy 3 года назад +1

    I know it's just me, but the top note starts to DRONE and actually hurt when its played like this lol The song that comes to mind where this happens is "Needy" by Ariana Grande. High G gets hit every quarter note and really pulls attention away from the rest of the song with its repetition.

    If you do this how would u know the key/scale your in ?

  • @howumighthaveanimatedthat2159
    @howumighthaveanimatedthat2159 3 года назад

    Would it work if the top note moved chromaticly

    • @Piano_Pig
      @Piano_Pig  3 года назад +1

      It wouldn't have quite the same stability, but it could definitely work - you'd just have to be smarter with your voicing choices.
