Beautiful warm jazz chords. Just getting started in Jazz as a 54 year old.
Perfect class. RUclips is the best social media ever due to videos like this
You are a great teacher who is so generous to share your knowledge and makes complex concepts easy to understand!
Cool! You have the most relaxed, and engaging teaching style!Totaly enjoyed this vid. .🙌🏽😎😎
Get so excited with your videos cause I know there'll be hours of joy ahead for me as I experiment with it all.
❤Love the chord Progressions
Thanks Tom for this video!! The way of making such warm two-chord progressions opens up a lot of possibilities, that until now I just couldn't "put together" or realize how to listen to them as melodic. Even doing them as an exercise will be a pleasure!!!
Jazz pianists are going to hate this ! 😂 you are amazing !
Hehe.. What makes you say that?
@@contemporaryschoolofpiano
You make it so easy to understand jazz chords. Good on you.
@@elgoogernutkind of you to say! Actually, I think a lot of jazz musicians find it hard to explain what it is they are doing because it becomes so ingrained. So what we seek to do at the sch
ool is combine musical expertise with specialist education to break down complex ideas and make them more accessible. Thanks for watching.
all of your tutorials is simple and very great information
Great Jazz lesson.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for this masterful lesson. With you, everything becomes clear and so pleasant
Thank you for this helpful and insightful video, Donald! I appreciate the included exercises!
Many thanks for your kind words, I'm glad it's helpful!
Tom, from my point of view, you would have to be the best jazz teacher far and wide, because even I have now understood how to learn it. Thank you very much from Bavaria ❤
Thank you Rosalie for your very kind words. Greetings from London, I've been to Munich and the surrounding areas a few times. Lovely place.
Beautiful lesson. Excellent teaching. Suscribed. 😊
@@sabueso32 welcome to the channel 😀
You are simply The Best!!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
This is excellent Tom - thank you so much - you're speaking from a place that's both instructive and fun - I feel I might even retain it now! Thanks a lot.
by far the best Teacher on RUclips ! such an virtuoso
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 👏 THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR!!!!! I am a retired electronic engineer - and a VERY GOOD JAZZ VOCALIST- fulfilling a " life-long DREAM ": TO LEARN TO PLAY PIANO and to " comp" myself at some gigs at some " high class" venues here in South Florida and in Rio de Janeiro 😂😂😂😂😂
So THANK YOU SO MUCH Sir TOMASITO 🙏 😊
One of the best jazz tutorials I've watched❤
Dear Pasan. I'm glad you've found this helpful. My tutorial on 2-5-1 jazz chords is a good follow up. You might benefit from our 30 Day Jazz Musician program. www.contemporaryschoolofpiano.com
Thank you,Tom.🌹🌹⭐🌹🌹
You are so welcome
I have only just discovered you and the London contemporary piano school! Absolutely awesome. I’m hooked and as soon as I’ve finished singing in elgar’s dream of Gerontious/ Kingdom / Apostles with the Halle this weekend and next - i am getting in touch to find our how i can study at your school - especially on-line. !!!
PS. Is that a fellow Aussie twang???
Outstanding, Tom!
Thankyou Frank
What a scratch, Tom! It's such a joy and fun. Thank you indeed. Looking forward for more scratches. Thanks, again.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Andrey!
Glad I discovered you..thank you for your simple solutions for Jazz chords and making a way for discovering my own progressions. Thank you so much !!!!
Thanks Tom! I'm having fun with this and what I've accomplished from watching your videos.
I'm glad you are getting so much from these videos!
Your lessons are so niche and musically freeing! Such empathetic curation of content that no other resource touches on! I was lost in the Realbook due to those fat complicated chords for that exact reason. Thank you for your efforts. I would love to see a breakdown for contemporary jazz such as Esbjorn Svensson and how minimal and Nordic approach to jazz sounds the way it does!
Thanks for another excellent tutorial!
this is a great great lesson behind those jazz secret, the treasure from the jazz legend is being explored. thanks very much for the sharing 👍👏
You are such a Great teacher. 😊😊😊🎹🎹🎹🎹🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👌👌👌👌👌
Thank you! 😃
It can't be this simple! Thanks for sharing!
Great fruit! Thanks Tom!
That was excellent. Thanks.
I can see myself revisiting this video several times in the coming weeks...
Yes, revisiting this is really useful to get the concepts familiar.
You are incredible-great teacher just what I needed
Many thanks Jimmy
Thanks a lot!!! 🌻
You're welcome 😊
Great teacher....thanks
What a brilliant lesson, Tom. THANKS!! 👍
Many thanks Paul
cool tutorial about jazzy sound！especially it is easy to understand or practice！thank you！
10.27 Thought you were about to start belting it out!
It was very tempting.....trust me :))
Marvelous
Most excellent! Thank you.
Many thanks Jesse
Thanks
This was a game changer for me wow 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
great session - best yet. Georgia is such a good example to choose too - a passport to the standards, too as there is so much in this piece. If you are bit musically dyslexic like me, and struggle when faced with blobs and bubbles hanging on a wall of suspended fishing lines, this is definitely the avenue, playing by shapes. Oddly it is helping my reading, too, as know what to look for in the blobs!
That's great to hear Jeremy! You can play Georgia at our next student concert!
Hi Tom, I’m a newcomer to the school. I think your videos are marvellous and I’m learning more each time. I also received an invitation recently to visit your studio in Baker Street which I will attend in the very near future. Look forward to meeting you. Regards David Holmes
We look forward to welcoming you to our school David. Best wishes, Tom
great video
Many thanks Roberto
💖💖💖
U Master
That's lovely to play and sounds great even as an exercise , thanks Tom. Could you offer an imbecile a little insight into why it is the minor root to a major IV rather than a minor iv? How does this apply to progressions etc? Apologies if that doesn't make sense
Dear Andrew. This is a very good question. Thanks so much for asking as I'm sure it's useful for other that may have thought of this. So-- think of Dm7-G7 as a chord 2 to 5 but not resolving on the 1 or resolving on the 1. OR as a minor 1 to major 4 which is a Dorian mode chord progression. This is the language of much jazz harmony..
@@contemporaryschoolofpiano Gratitude for your reply Tom. So is that like a modulation type thing with the 4 acting as a secondary dominant might for resolving for example?
@@andrewmartin1395 you could think of chord 5, in a 2-5-1 as functioning like a secondary dominant IF the music is moving around and changing keys a lot. Which is common in jazz harmony. Personally, I prefer to not think of it as modulation, I think of it more as passing chords and sequences that are using a universal pattern. Thinking of them as passing chords "decoration" takes away the heaviness of thinking that you are always changing keys. And the minute too much theory sneaks into the thinking, the ability to improvise comfortably on chords can be distracted.
@@contemporaryschoolofpiano thanks for taking the time to help Tom.
Please make more tutorial about jazz Bebop Piano....thanks
It's on the to-do list!
Sorry to ask but for me the dominant of C is G rather than F ? What did I miss here ??? Thanks
So just to clarify, this is not dominant to the tonic (Chord 5 to 1) exercise. Jazz harmony doesn't walk around moving between 5-1 which you would hear perhaps more often in Mozart or Haydn. One of the most common progressions in Jazz is 2-5-1 and these progressions in groups of two could be looked at as a 2-5 (without going to the 1). Another aspect of Jazz Harmony is we don't resolve to 1 very often, except perhaps at the end of the piece! That's what makes the harmony so rich. So you can finally enjoy playing piano, without having to play dominant to tonic all the time!
It’s ironic. The sound quality on this video is so poor
We delve into subjective territory here, but a few facts, this video was recorded using very high-end microphones on a stunning German grand piano - perhaps you're just used to the bright Yamaha-like keyboard sound - Blüthner pianos are much warmer. If you are listening for that aggressive bright sound (which is sadly overused these days on the piano) because one might think the piano "has" to sound like that - it would be easy to think that the sound isn't quite right. Art is always a matter of perspective. And even I might be guessing you here because it could be the vocal sound you have an issue with?
LOVE UR VIDS TOM❤ KEEP IT UP😊
