In this series of videos I cover Jazz Piano Improvisation techniques. I'll explain, from start to finish, how you can learn to improvise over a jazz song and sound professional.
This Jazz Piano Tutorial is about dissonant intervals. I classify all the possible intervals into 3 categories: Perfect Consonance, Imperfect Consonance and Dissonant and then go on to explain how to use dissonant intervals in your improvisation to build tension and then how to resolve that tension.
Using dissonant intervals is a great improvisational technique when building tension.
Consonance or Dissonance is where the 'Perfect' comes from in the intervals of Perfect Unison, Fourth, Fifth and Octave.
The Dissonant Intervals are:
Minor 2nd
Major 2nd
Minor 7th
Major 7th
Tritone
Flat 9th

I’ve never played piano and I don’t know anything about this stuff but I watched the whole video attentively and enjoyed all of the lingo lol

[@BinaryIdioms]

Great video

[@lukebaker3884]

Wouldn't the minor 6th be more dissonant than a minor 7th?

[@hifijohn]

its called an octave because its the 8th note in the scale. oct=8

[@iambatdan]

Surely this was a slip of the tongue. He meant to say "consonant" not "octave", right?

[@silverkip2992]

He meant perfect. (Lmao replying 7 years later)

[@hypnovia]

Does anyone else think b9 is the most dissonant interval - even more than the m2?
