THAT is the very best twenty minutes of vocational jazz piano instruction I’ve ever seen. So incredibly simple and so perfectly explained. Quartels have always been fleeting, passing moves for me. This tutorial gives me something to latch onto, to put me into the throws of something broader, ultimately giving birth to both new voice and new rhythm! A watershed moment here and I thank you!!!!
The other 12 minutes must have been practicing at the keyboard 😂
Well I had to watch it several times and stop it occasionally to make notes. This is now part of my regular practice routines! ❤️
Bravo, maestro...!!!
This is what I consider brilliant educational instruction. He’s always gonna make me work, but with loads of energy, inspiration, and value. That’s Peter Martin. Thanks, brother!
Wow! Now I hear it and understand it! When he said he wasn’t really playing “out” but it sounds like it while sticking to the minor pentatonic I was like 🤯🤯
I think I just broke a tooth
The best feeling
As long as your ears are ok.
LoL!
Good idea 👍
I’m gonna work on that,it sounds good !!
Thanks 😊
Captain Crunch Quartals for raw Gums.
At last - Some detailed left-hand "McCoy Tyner" voicings! I've been practicing, last three days, Peter Martin's 60 second short on Pentatonics (Open Studio) and had started cracking the left hand movements by repeated viewings; but now here it is, all precisely laid out. Everything in this video works with the Eb (or C-) Pent scale, making this the perfect foundation for study in all keys. Thank you Peter!
as a guitarist ive been trying to wrap my head around the logic of this sound for a while, thank you!! best jazz channel ever!!
Same exact experience as you (as a guitar player). I could hear it but had no idea what was happening. This was awesome.
Man, I know the feeling, this kind of stuff is like magic from another realm as a guitar player. We have an advantage that we can bend, trill and slur to taste but the voicing and substitution aspect is a challenge.
But the nice thing is that these chords come so easy to the guitar as tuning of at least the bottom 4 strings are fourths (or well, if you use a standard tuning that is). The regular quartal voicings can be done with just one finger on those strings. When using the D-string as the starting point it's either 2 fingers (incorporating the B-string) or just three (using the E-string). The crunchy derivatives are not difficult either.
Great production value! Shoutout to whatever intern is animating the transcription hahaha
THIS IS THE SOUND IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR FOR YEARS AND IT IS SO SIMPLE THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS TO THE LIGHT GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL
I feel like I reached the promised Land!!!!! I have been searching for someone to explain Quartal Harmony to me for years - and more so, how it works. Thank you so much!! I am an Open Studio member and have been doing your courses. Now I have what to work on. Thanks a gazillion!
Peter. I could talk for days about how great this is. Love the Crunch o meter! Thank you!
Wow this video makes me feel so light and hopeful. I have been breaking my head for years trying to understand that “sound”, that modern jazz piano hip sound. Now after watching this, so many things have come to my comprehension. Can’t thank Peter and open studios enough for this content!
I never thought I'd be able to understand the basics of this jazz style. Thanks for that! Happy holidays from Marbella, Spain.
Man, you are so masterful at this. A great player and wonderful teacher. So grateful for you. 🙏🏻
Wow, these are GREAT! I think I usually play them by accident; really helpful to have some structure for practicing more intentionally.
Gonna send you the cleaning bill, Peter... my mind was blown by this lesson! A simple explanation of next-level material! Bravo!
🎹
Masterful teaching. As a horn player I’ve only ever recognized that sound. Now I understand it.
Works great on guitar too; very cool. Thanks.
It works great on any harmonic instrument.
Hip insider stuff !! Thanks a lot !! All the “crunchy” 4ths appear to act as the original 4ths dominant. So functional and cool. A whole world of possibilities opens !! Great inspiring playing there..!!
Yup, it's great because they are the same voicings as the shell for the #9 chord (a lot of them), and since the #9 is in both that chord and the scale of the tonal center, it makes total sense as a sub. So logical while deriving something still inspired-sounding, creative and hip! Which I think are the cross streets jazz lives at
Like Db-G-C is a rootless Eb7(13) which is a sibling of C7b9, and even that C dominant sound gets along with Cmin/Ebmaj pentatonic, because Eb is a blue note to C.
Just had an ah ha experience. Thanks.
Absolute gold Peter. You never cease to amaze me. Working on the transcription now....(update 25 years later...still working on it...)
This was probably my favorite music lesson RUclips. Thank you haha Please live in Boston and let me study
Wonderful, Peter! I wanted to understand this stuff, this McCoy Tyner language, for a long time. You present it clearly and beautifully - you own it!
Thank you for this!
Great lesson as always. Also your production has gotten so good! I’m happy for your success
Well that is cool. The newly included non - diatonic notes (C# E F# G# B) spell a C#- pentatonic scale which, being up a semitone, account for the chord's 'crunch'.
Good observation!!
Good observation!
I think that may relate to why he made “crunchies” only on select positions (the 2, 4, 5 and 6 I think it was)
Accounting for the crunch isn't the problem. Accounting for why they should be played with C minor pentatonic IS.
They're also implying the c altered scale (except B which implies c harmonic minor scale)
Great Christmas present! Thank you!!
GRooVY / crunchy sound dude !!!
Great lesson...!
Thanks for this. Sounds a lot like the great McCoy Tyner!
Great One Peter!
This is definitely an "Oops All Berries!" Episode
Wow, thanks so much for that lesson, bravo!
Great instructional video ! Straight to the point ! It reminds me of Dave Grusin's soundtrack for the movie "The firm".
The crunch meter says guitarist approved!
So good! Thank you!
Very informative and clear!
I wish this wasn't above me! You're such an excellent teacher.
Absolutely amazing lesson. Just what I needed
This is the BEST short lesson I’ve seen. Will definitely get my fingers working on this.😁
noone ever talks about cool ways to move between these voicings thanks for this Peter !
Great insights and well presented concepts! Many thanks for the lesson!
Thank you so much for the lesson! Quartals have been a mystery to me until now, can’t wait to practice these crunchy quartals!
Thanks so much. I learn a lot in just one video! Keep up the good work. FF
Great great video! simple and straight to the point and that's a beautiful way to use those 4th's sonorities. So simple yet sounds excellent, even just this without playing or changing the positions and voicings of the quartal chords.
Thanks very much for sharing
Excellent! Very useful and very well explained. Thank you Cap'n Crunch!
thank you !
and happy hollidays !
So you can drop the bottom note a half step if it doesn’t land you on another note in the Dorian scale. Neat!
Thank you, I was wondering why that was what they where playing
Extremely good lesson! Sitting here with a big smile on my face. And what a great piano player you are!!!
This is absolutely amazing. Hope to apply to my bass playing!
ok, best jazz piano lesson I´ve ever seen:)
Wow you could feel the heat🔥🔥🔥
Your music is great! Nice improvization.
So useful,thank you.
Great teaching style, thank you! Could you reveal how you play an actual grand piano but have the keyboard on your video with the played notes highlighted?
Great stuff. Interested in the fourth voicings. Polkadots in play 👍
God answer prayers....thanks for your teachings ...great stuff.........
I can't stop thinking on GRP All Star Big Band Live In Japan (My Man's gone now), you should make a video on that version!
Peter great stuff , you’ve unlocked a long mystery for me ..many thanks
Wow instantly applicable, rare for something so hip to require such little practice to internalize, good stuff!
Amazingly usefull!!!! Thanks!
This is really great! I now more fully understand what I have been doing instinctively. This will help me apply it more knowledgeably. Thanks!
Love this video. Thank you!!
Love the contect you guys. keep it up, aweosme stuff
Such a great tutorial...
Understandable .. The Mysteries now Lie in Quartal's/4th's Spirit
Great stuff!! 👍🏼
💗🎶 Perfect Force in the Sea of Dorian! Great delivery on this info nice and upbeat, succinct
Great stuff!
Super useful and straight up legit. Thanks!
Nice stuff!!
Thank you, Brother of Grooves.🌹🌹🔥🌲🌹🌹
Good stuff ...thankx
So good!
Gahhhhh my head exploded in the best possible way YAYYYY I say to the YAYYYYE. Thank you Peter. By the way, I love when you say doppio, are you ever gonna do a segment about the whacky grand piano that has the pedals with the second grand piano underneath you play with your feet? Pleeeeeez? That would be dope yo.
Love it
Fantastic!
Thanks!
this is awesome
Wow! That’s a nice way to breakout of the limbo of P4 to add tension with the tritone using the Dorian scale
Merry Christmas 🤩🔥
Yikes! Love it!
5 crunchy quartals
1. 4:17 2nd, lowering root
Db G C
2. 5:25 4th, lowering root
Fb Bb Eb
3. 6:00 5th, lowering root
Gb C F
4. 6:28 6th, lowering root & 4th
Ab Db G
5. 7:22 Root, lowering root
Cb F, Bb (aka G7#9)
Naturally occurring mini crunchy quartals in Cm dorian
1. 2:51 3rd, Eb A D
2. 3:15 7th, Bb Eb A
My theory of how these alterations come to be is that they are highlighting Gb7 and its chord scale Gb mixolydian. It doesn't matter if you play C or Cb because C would imply Gb lydian scale
Thank you !!!.awsome !!!!
Very Cool video!
It makes me wanna go to the storage, take out that grand piano, bring it home and start doing scales again.
If it wasn’t because every time I see the piano it scares me so much I can’t even open the lid.
Oh well…
I did enjoy this video a lot
Thank you 🙏
That was great, Peter. Great lesson on the inside quartals. Meaty and crunchy. What I'd love to see next from you is the same lesson but for the eyes-rolling-back-in-the-head outside quartals, -the insane McCoy stuff. I knew there was a structure to the inside quartals, but is there a similar theoretical framework for the eye-rolling demonic possession outside quartals that you can make sense of?
New to music studies and curious to learn more at my own pace. Great to be here to learn from this content, and not build relationships or engage in dialogue.
Thank you Mc Coy Tyner!
Yes. To everything that is happening here, I say yes!
I’ll be transcribing this for the next month at least to get all the marrow out of it.
Get the transcription, it's fantastic. If you're not a Pro member, I bet they will send it to you if you ask nicely. They're good like that.
CRUNCHY!🔥
Man, that's so spicy! Luv it!
CRUNCHY baby!!!
It's interesting, and very useful to some pianists, I'm sure. It fits into straight ahead playing and maybe into some other styles, but it is not for every jazz pianist - there are so many styles!
just another color in the crayon box..
Crazy good!
Absolutely killing
Gràcies!
This is spectacular! I love these lessons, they are so helpful to discovering new ideas and theory with jazz. Didn't McCoy Tyner use this in Contemplation?
There’s almost a flavour of shifting around different Phrygian roots going on
Love this. 👏
I love this guy.
I think of these as rootless hendrix chords, or sharp 9 chords. But I like how you show the relation to the quartal diatonic voicings as alterations.
For the A D G variant, why do you move the D to C# instead of keeping it at D and just lowering A to G#?
Man, got that hack I've been hungry for. So simple and digestible, but output is sophisticated and elevating to my playing. Got it immediately thanks to clear concise teaching and a great break down. How do you do it? Working through the keys..
Best Lesson ever this was what i heard McCoy do
I don’t like the modal McCoy, Callderazo, Coltrane thing, but you really are amazing at teaching and playing it …
Awesoome Thank yu!
Is there a theoretical basis for the alterations?
Us trumpet players can have lots to of fun with this
