I could weep with gratitude. I've been trying to teach myself this stuff since the beginning of the year, but wondered why I never saw much if any left handed action. I thought I was figuring much of it out, but was never sure. I intend to watch this video over and over and over again. It is the single most helpful piano video I've seen on RUclips. A thousand thanks to you, sir.
Arr thank you Bob! What a great comment. That is exactly what I hoped this video would do - cover all the bases in one organized place, without you having to try to piece it all together through separate videos. I'm so glad this video helps, and I hope it makes all my other videos fit in place too. Thank you Bob!
I feel the same. The is the most comprehensive 20 minutes of any piano lesson I've watched on RUclips. You start most of them with an open heart and end up getting confused. This is the first time ever I got the principle being taught in totality. Well done sir.
Hey Julian, I used to be a professional (classical) musician most of my life. I’ve been to a professional music school, got private lessons, studied music science at a university here in Germany,.. I changed my profession to Management couple of years ago but my heart will forever beat for music, so I continued playing on my own :) Playing jazz always seemed hard to me as a classical player so listening to your video and your calm and patient way of explaining helped me a lot. This video seems like the beginning of a new era to me. I will start applying your Tipps and technic. I’m happy I’ve found your video and that you didn’t start explaining everything about music from ground zero so people that have general knowledge like me can go further. Thanks a lot and much love from musician to musician ☺️👋🏼❤️ Hita
I just stumbled upon this. I was playing (from classical to modern etc) when I was a child (around 8) but couldn't read music. But the passion has never left me. So, when I get time I'm going to attempt this 🙈
@@theriac. you will get there!! Just never give up :)) And indeed, repetition is key. I used to play 5-8 h (sometimes more) every single day since my childhood until I became an adult 😇
I never thought a teacher could make perfect sense of jazz chords, and scales, but there I go playing true jazz sounds for the first time ever. Thank you so much! I am a subscriber for sure. looking forward to the next lessons.
I've been playing the piano now for 9 years and I've always struggled to understand most of what you covered in this video. Yet in just 20 minutes you've managed to help me understand the principles of jazz almost completely! I love jazz and blues so much and now I feel I can finally start making progress towards learning how to play it properly. I can't thank you enough for this.
A year later, and me too! I instantly knew all of these things he talked about but I’d never been properly taught so my brain just couldn’t conceptualize them. Such a good video.
18:36 This is for all the kids who resolved their aesthetic & cultural dissonance. You can appreciate the genius of Chopin, Bill Evans and RZA, all at the same damn time. Soul harmony. A highly significant teaching moment :)
As a metalhead at heart open to all kinds of music, this was fascinating and so clearly explained. That minor 2-5-1 with the C minor-major 7 @14:50 in context actually made my jaw drop. So hauntingly beautiful. I know very little about music theory but this makes me want to learn.
So you learn the 2-5-1 the most easy and is a rudiments and you have a lot more progression, you get that but what happened with the others is so much to learn this is just to make you feel better, like you learn a lot of you really want to learn believe me you will need years to learn not just 20 minutes!
6:47 Just posting this timestamp so I can come back and appreciate the jazziness of those chords being played one after another. I don't know how to play jazz but when I hear those jazz harmonies I get so excited. If it takes 10-20 years to learn jazz so be it, but I'm ready to learn.
@@chunk2887 Jazz has many things you have to keep in mind like chord extensions and modal theory, but playing good jazz doesn’t take 10-20 years if you practice not only learning it, but applying it. I didn’t understand crap until I just played and messed around with it and it sounded good. I hope to understand modal theory next.
The chords he played as examples of "jazz sound" were altered somewhat. A 2nd degree was thrown in on almost all of them. The G7 was an altered chord on the second example. (instead of a d he played a d#).
@@alejandrom.4680 If a 51 year old man can master it in 20 years, you 15 year old teen too can master it in 02 years. When it come to music the early age is a bless. Hope you will play great in future. :-)
Actually, if you actually cared to learn it. And spent about an hour a day on it. It'd be pretty possible to learn this in a year. Yes to MASTER it, it might take quite a bit of time. But this isn't impossible to understand and it just depends on how often you practice
This is the absolute best music theory instruction video I've seen on RUclips. Other videos I've researched on this stuff vary from confusing to - confusing *and* contradictory. You nailed it fellah. Well done and heartfelt thanks. Just subbed and looking forward to watching more of your stuff.
As a classical pianist, this is the best explanation of jazz I’ve ever heard, the other videos I’ve seen haven’t made much sense even though I know a good deal about theory
Man, never took any music classes and I barely know a few little things about how harmony works, but this video you made is a piece of gold. I wish every teacher in the world, no matter what’s the subject, could be as good as you. Great job, congratulations, and thank you because I suddenly understood a lot of things I was already doing in my playing style, which will make everything easier 😊
Clarity and ‘ can do’ in 20 minutes . Quite extraordinary teaching talent . A huge thank you . It is like seeing all the books I’ve struggled through myopically but with glasses on now ! Thank you , thank you , big and bold 😊👍
This was about the clearest, most well thought out explanation of jazz theory that I've ever heard. I actually understood everything you said. haha Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!
20 years ago as a classical singing student and lifetime bad but joyful pianist, I wanted to learn jazz piano. But I was hanging with serious heads and always felt to intimidated, especially with my crappy ear. Sitting here with my family on Christmas eve, all with covid positive so we had to cancel seeing anyone, and my wife said how much she wishes I'd finally learn some jazz piano. So glad I found this video to get me started. Simple and clear, just enough info without going too slow or repetitive, just incredible work. Very grateful and excited to be starting my jazz journey with you
I'm a blues guy with classical training. I love that you broke down the impossible so succinctly. I can feel them but this will go along way when I get stuck. Thank you!
Thank you so much. I've played "by ear" or rather "self taught" over the years but always thought jazz would be almost impossible for me to learn. By watching this video a light is coming to my mind and started to believe and embrace a new level for me to play, jazz. Thank you, Mr. Julian Bradley.
Earlier this year I started watching this video but got lost quickly. After picking up some music theory, I was surprised that this time, I can get through the entire video and understand quite a lot of it. Thank you for your tutorial!
This tutorial is so insightful and so helpful. This is not easy stuff to learn but Julian you have a gift of teaching. I actually understood it the way you laid it all out and tied it all together. Thank you!
One of the very best educational videos on this topic out there for beginners. Bloody brilliant. You explained. You contextualised. You showed where the boundaries are and demonstrated each principal perfectly. Thank you so much. I'm at my piano now replaying this video to follow along.
I have been a professional keyboardist for over 20 years, though it was mostly classical and progressive metal. (Yes, I know, they definitely go together) Getting into jazz recently, it is... Overwhelming. This video has explained SO much in 20 minutes, now it is the process of starting to put it into actual practice. If you ever teach people remotely, I would definitely sign up!

I’m self taught and been playing for many years. I’ve played mostly blues or rock in that time. I’ve always loved jazz as well and struggled to understand the chord structure for many years. You did an amazing job clearing up so much in your video. You are an amazing teacher and I thank you so much for this lesson!
20 mins full of information. step by step. thanks a lot!!!! im a classical pianist, and im slowly shifting to jazz but im so confused of the chords and how to do voicings, also the jazz scales .. thanks
Excellent lesson. I began playing classical piano at age 5. I'm 56 now and have forgotten much. These kinds of lessons are perfect for me. Great refresher.
Thank you so much for the amazing explanation. I'm a classical pianist and I want to explore Jazz for a change. I didn't know how to start learning because the chords look so complicated haha. Thanks to you, I understand more now!
Excellent lesson. I began playing classical piano at age 5. I'm 56 now and have forgotten much. These kinds of lessons are perfect for me. Great refresher.
Since I don't read music, the visuals here, from above the keyboard, with their names and SOUNDS are essential to my way of learning. I play everything by ear. Thanks!
As amazingly informative as this video is, i have to say my favourite part was how he just ended it without warning. No "thanks for watching", no "remember to like and subscribe", just an abrupt ending out of nowhere. Absolute chad move.
My friend you are a legend that makes more sense than most I’ve ever seen teach. You’re a natural teacher and a great knowledgeable person. Thanks 🙏🏻 God bless you from Australia 🇦🇺
Just watched this, thank you for providing this lesson to RUclips! This simplifies some things I never understood massively and it's taught really well, crazy that you got this all whittled down to 20mins 😃🙌
Wow, straight to it, no unnecessary chatter - brillliant. I’ve saved this so I can check it out again and again. Utterly succinct tutorial, many thanks.
😢😢😢 Good luck to those who are just starting Jazz then jam this video on RUclips. I wish I have discovered this channel 20 years ago I wouldn't have suffer to that extent. I still gain alot. You are a legend.
Wow, this is so helpful! I'm just at the point in my playing where I've been diving more into 7th chords, extensions, and modal scales over those chords; but in 20 minutes you explained it way better and more clearly than any of my music theory books! :)
As someone with a grad degree in classical percussion, with a later in life interest in jazz improv on steel pan, this has been a VERY useful video! I really wish we had been taught jazz theory!!!
Thank you. For years. I've been trying to understand what makes "jazz, jazz"! This has made me understand jazz way better. Thank you! I'm going to watch this video again when I have a piano in front of me. It's clicking, finally!
I have been a musician for many years. Although I have had no formal training, I play multiple instruments. I have VERY ELEMENTARY understanding of music theory. In just a few minutes of watching this video, I have gained more musical understanding than I have in YEARS. I navigated to his website where I watched another video on jazz voicing. Incredible! Some people have a talent for stripping down the most complex ideas and teaching them in an easy to understand manner. Mr. Bradley is one such person and is a teaching genius!
This video is gold. It finally unlocked so many things I'm trying to learn about music theory. So well done as well. Thank you!! Now I just have to translate it into guitar... it's a mess! But there is hope! :)
I've been trying to learn jazz guitar for a bit. I didn't really understand the chord constructions and now thanks to this video this makes it all so much easier.
It's easier to learn listening from this guy because he doesn't sound like those arrogant jazz musicians that don't wanna teach you. I learned so much from this guy and he makes jazz seem so simple now.
Nobody explained me the chord types as you did in this video. I understand them perfectly now. This 20 minutes is unbelievable. Thank you very much.
Ikr
Agreed!
Saves a lot of people a year of pianoclass. :-)
Al you have to do is learn this in all 12 keys.

Had to scroll too far to find this comment. For those interested, the original sample is from The Charmels - As Long As I've Got You
Why not? The original music is taken from a jazz record
What a great tutorial. This was a great review for me with a few new concepts as well. Thank you for taking the time to make it.
Great to see a new video Julian. You are such a great teacher!
I have been a musician for many years. Although I have had no formal training, I play multiple instruments. I have VERY ELEMENTARY understanding of music theory. In just a few minutes of watching this video, I have gained more musical understanding than I have in YEARS. I navigated to his website where I watched another video on jazz voicing. Incredible! Some people have a talent for stripping down the most complex ideas and teaching them in an easy to understand manner. Mr. Bradley is one such person and is a teaching genius!
This is the greatest comprehensive video i've ever seen. Simplified in a comprehensive way
Videos como estos deberían de subtitularlos en varios idiomas por que son un gran apoyo, ya sea en la música o en otros temas
This video is gold. It finally unlocked so many things I'm trying to learn about music theory. So well done as well. Thank you!! Now I just have to translate it into guitar... it's a mess! But there is hope! :)
Thank you. This is so clear music theory
I've been trying to learn jazz guitar for a bit. I didn't really understand the chord constructions and now thanks to this video this makes it all so much easier.
It's easier to learn listening from this guy because he doesn't sound like those arrogant jazz musicians that don't wanna teach you. I learned so much from this guy and he makes jazz seem so simple now.
That’s the type of tutorial I was always looking for
Que aula maravilhosa! Depois de anos enxergando o Jazz como "coisa de outro mundo", finalmente consegui entendê-lo!! 👏👏👏
Fantastic, high quality content! Well done, subscribed!
