LESSON SUMMARY
In this piano lesson, you are going to learn easiest approach to improvise a jazz piano solo over any jazz standard. When it comes to improvising a solo over jazz standard, it can be very confusing to understand which scales you can use to improvise over certain chords. Oftentimes there are multiple scales that you can use with one chord. Furthermore, many jazz standards like All The Things You Are have many chords. Therefore, you could hypothetically use hundreds of scales to improvise over one tune. If this sounds overwhelming to you, then I have good news for you! You can solo over most jazz standard using one or two “parent” scales. When you reframe jazz chords as expressions of one parent scale, soloing will become tremendously easier for you. In this piano lesson, you will learn:
- The Chord Progression for All The Things You Are
- The Dominant 7 Identifier
- Diatonic Chords for 4 Keys
- Jazz Chord Progression Analysis
- How to Connect Your Jazz Lines

Maybe I am a bird of little brain! but you lost me at 5 minutes in. How can there be time to work all that math out on the fly when trying to improvise? Would it not be easier to just do it by ear? I can't believe all that is going on in the jazz players head when finding a melodic line over all the key changes going on in your average standard jazz tune. Even Bill Evans said the hardest thing was finding a good melodic line not finding good substitute hamonies. If you're going to just play major scales how do you get to play anything better than a few arpeggios?
Jonny, thank you. That is incredible, how jazzy a natural major scale sounds under right circumstances!
Jonny, I don't understand the magic here. The key signature is Bb, Eb, Ab,Db which clearly shows it is an Ab scale (and makes evident Eb7 is a dominant 7th role here). Then the natural sign releases all four of them, in Dm7 and G7 chords so it is clear again only looking at the signs it is a simple C scale (where of course G7 is the dominant seventh) . Why we need to find a dominant sevenths?? Why we don't simply look at the key signatures? It seems a reversed process to me.
But what about Giant Steps? Not to mention, what do you do when it's a Dixieland song and every chord is a Dom7?
Bass player, just discovered this it seems to have changed my world, wish someone would have told me this years ago 😂
Uhhhh or you could look at the key signature of the song.
You are the best music teacher in the world. thank you very much
Dude, thank you for putting all these treasures online... as a beginning jazz pianist, I can just say: THANK YOU!
Man! Thats awesome! I was always suspecting that there is some trick to find the scales. That's really a neat approach! Thank you so much for sharing!
Excellent summary of what can be a daunting topic in Jazz for beginners- Succinctly summarised the 6-2-5-1 progressions as well. Really helpful.
