Appreciate the video but it seems kind of lazy to just show up and be like "let's just do Q&A" and then squeeze questions out of the audience. Expected some sort of presentation 🤷♂️
I got a lot out of this Barry Harris video: ruclips.net/video/R-d4PmAXsms/видео.html 16:42 Is he talking about the "Dominant 7th" scale? Another video talks about Barry's "6th Diminished" approach. I wonder if either one of those is what Mark's remembering.
Yeah, too bad the free information given to you isn't better quality. Too bad you can still hear it and still gain valuable information from a genius music educator. Oh well, maybe they'll get it right next time.
Man, the sound sucks. Considering the expense of his book, he could have paid attention to our ears and his keyboard. Plus, he's just plugged in his book and wants us to buy it.
What i would have loved to asked him would have been.... why the hell he did ignore Mr. Oscar Peterson so obviously in his great jazzpiano book. No matter what kind of all the stylistic benchmarks he is talking about in this book (especially Stride, Walking Tenth and Block Cords or locked hands) he never ever mentioned Mr. peterson. Shame on Mr. Levine..:-))
Mike Anon Your are right, saying that oscar was not the great innovator in jazz by means of coming up with something completly new every week.....but....his legacy concernig the fact that he opens up the jazz idiom to a vast majority of the until then more or less arrogant and ignorant white people listening narcistictly to european concert music can´t be valuated high enough. He was known to be the great eclecticist of jazz piano, having it all together what happend before him , that´s common knowledge. But for me, the way he digested all that jazz stuff in combination with the way a real virtuoso works on music to give it the utmost possible perfection in clearity, touch , timing and so forth is unsurpassed. One also has to keep in mind, that peterson´s intension behind his mindblowing and fearsome technical skills was also to tumble down the walls of racism and ignorancy in the musical landscape out there where black musicians got less respect and less money for their work compared to white fellows. One citation of him is...well if the only way to be recognized and respected is to to faer them all pianistically to death that´s the way i´ll go.... Coming back to Mark Levine and his "Jazz Piano Book wich by the way is great, i worked and still work with it.....but it seems to hurt me personally how deliberately Mr. Levine avoids to mention Mr. Petersons merits for jazz as a widely respected form of art. Anyway i adore Mr. Levine´s work and his way of teaching jazz especially be means of taking the fear from people, to be not good or perfect enough to play. kind regards from hamburg Matthias

I think he’s talking about diminished six
alguien que lo traduzca a español no entiendo
Why such a valuable thing is recorded so poorly? Gem in the mud
Would a college audio course would give someone credit for cleaning it up?

Be nice if we could hear what he's saying...

Turn up the volume and listen on a system that has bass frequencies.
