This is such an excellent way to build up these skills. I really like the gradual progressive approach, starting simple and removing constraints in stages.
thank you so much. I kind of gave up on jazz piano but i still play the piano every day, now you have given me a logical step by step progression to improving and i think i'll continue jazz again. Love ur vids cheers
Man I saw this video last night! @11:20 to be exact and I said to myself, “I’ll workout these ideas for about 30 minutes” b/c I had to be to work this morning at 6:30! I didn’t get to bed til 2:30!!! I just went from one song to the next going from parts I-VI 🤦🏾♂️ ‘Our Love is Here to Stay’ ‘Bye Bye Blackbird’ ‘Joy Spring’ & ‘Mercy, Mercy, Mercy’ (my blues substitute) I couldn’t believe this basic Etude could make me sound great w/out thinking too much! Thanks for the tutorial... I would like to take a lesson or 2 from you ✊🏾🎹😷
Reminds me of the way Carl Schroeder used to make us play/practice. 1 chorus of chord scales or arpeggios in straight 8th notes, 1 chorus whatever you want.
Hey Noah, I'm enjoying your videos. I was a little surprised by your choice to play Dorian over the F-7, which is VI- in this progression, yes? Or is that just for the sake of explaining this concept. If so, makes sense. I normally like to point out to my students how all of the chords fit into Ab, and how all of the chords function within the same key/scale. At any rate, thanks for the great vids and love the playing! (I'm buying your book).
Excellent approach, great structure, very pleasant and caring voice, one of the better tutorials out there. If I may also add a suggestion: the piano needs a little tuning (but I might be wrong, it just gives off distracting resonances). Thank you!
Hi Noah! Thank you for this great tutorial! I´d like to ask you: Shouldn´t be there instead of F minor dorian scale the F minor aeolian scale instead (dflat instead of d?) ? F is the VI-th in the progression and in the Ab scale and I am confused how to decide which scale to use? Or does it depends on the situation or on the melody of a song? Thank you very much, best regards!!! Cheers!
Hi Saw your question and it was not addressed. I’m not Noah. I think what he is teaching is for practice. We all need to know are scales and modes. But this isn’t improvising. Improvising is making melodies. And embellishing on that. That’s where learning jazz language you like comes in. Go to a jazz standard book Using this progression and fine players you love soloing over it. And pick lines you really love and ingrain them. First in the key you find them in. Then work out in all keys. Hope that helps?
You are playing a 6-2-5-1 progression in Ab major. For beginners why not use the natural minor scale( relative minor) for the F minor (6 chord )? Keep it all diatonic to start with?
Hey, there are two PDF's that are good for this: I would start with Amazing Improv Exercise: Blues Edition, then after that try Amazing Improv Exercise: Jazz Standard Edition
Liberty is freedom of expression, and vocabulary is like how you say something. So what he is trying to say is that every level of this video there are less limits (liberty) and more chances to communicate what you're trying to say through the piano (vocabulary).
Hey, Amazing Improv Exercise Blues or Standard edition! Or my Jazz Piano Secrets course also goes very in depth with this method over a modern progression as well

Thanks, glad you like it. Let me know if you have any requests or questions!
Yes but could you please tell me what chord progression do you use to keep going????please

amazing exercise! Though I have to say that when connecting the scales I'm having problems getting the proper and efficient fingering
Excellent Lesson!!! Thank you!!!
非常感谢,有这么好的课程,英文不是太好,除了术语比较熟悉,其他的只能听懂一半的意思,但方法基本懂了。赞👍🏻

Superb! You explained it very systematically. Thanks Noah..
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
Wow..... I'm excited and very interested in this excercise. Thank You for sharing. ❤️

Hey Adam, thanks for the suggestion. You're totally right haha-- I just hadn't had a chance to take care of it when I made this video!
Merci Noah ! Very clear and inspiring explanations !
Glad you enjoyed the video, Isa!
Noah Kellman thank you Noah, I have just bought bebop scale et diminished...it s a big work 😳😊
@@isabinet134 Wow that's great! Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to help.
Great Lesson Plan!
thank you! super clear
You teaching good bro!!! Thanks 🙏🏽
Nice
good course thank you
Hi Noah! Thank you for this great tutorial! I´d like to ask you: Shouldn´t be there instead of F minor dorian scale the F minor aeolian scale instead (dflat instead of d?) ? F is the VI-th in the progression and in the Ab scale and I am confused how to decide which scale to use? Or does it depends on the situation or on the melody of a song? Thank you very much, best regards!!! Cheers!
Is the pdf still there ? I cannot find it.
This is aaaaaweaome!!!!
Really good!!🙌🏻👏🏻
Hey Noah, how do you incorporate language/vocab into these exercises? Or do you use another method entirely?
Hi
Saw your question and it was not addressed. I’m not Noah. I think what he is teaching is for practice. We all need to know are scales and modes. But this isn’t improvising. Improvising is making melodies. And embellishing on that. That’s where learning jazz language you like comes in.

Then work out in all keys. Hope that helps?
Thanks. It helped a lot.
Hi!How can you choose the scale to play like you? How to judge which scale to use when playing a chord? (Church mode)
How about using the Ab diminished 6 scale over the F-7 Bb-7 Eb7 Ab Db and C dim 6 over the d-7 G7 C?
I used this technique in my class and had good results! BTW I like you channel!
You are playing a 6-2-5-1 progression in Ab major. For beginners why not use the natural minor scale( relative minor) for the F minor (6 chord )? Keep it all diatonic to start with?
Wow i found a new teacher
Is the pdf free to download? I can’t find it 😅
For the left hand, do you ever use R-3 instead of R-7 shells (for smooth for leading between R-3 / R-7) ?
Bass has the root, you can play 3-7 or 7-3 voicings :)
I don't undersand why the first Fm should be dorian. In the context, it's a VI, so it should be aeolian, isn't it?
Shouldn´t be there instead of F minor dorian scale the F minor aeolian scale instead? It would make much more sense. vi-ii-V-i anyway, thank you
Your channel is LIT
Which book from the store belongs to this exercise?
Yes but could you please tell me what chord progression do you use to keep going????please
omg......where have you been
Yes, me too, waiting whole my life for this lesson.. Now I finally understand how this thing works
What is the chord progression & the tonic in this exercise?
I believe he's using the first 8 bars of all the things you are.. great lesson, very useful exercise
I think it was Fm7 Bbm7 Eb7 Abmaj7 Dbmaj7 Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 (starting in Ab with a 6-2-5-1-4 then changing to C major with another 2-5-1).
@@ruiresende84 Exactly right!
wonderful ! anyway whick PDF in store you mentioned in this course ?
Hey, there are two PDF's that are good for this: I would start with Amazing Improv Exercise: Blues Edition, then after that try Amazing Improv Exercise: Jazz Standard Edition
@@NoahKellman thank you ! also which one has mapping of scale and chords ? thanks!
Can you explain what’s Liberty and Vocabulary?
Liberty is freedom of expression, and vocabulary is like how you say something. So what he is trying to say is that every level of this video there are less limits (liberty) and more chances to communicate what you're trying to say through the piano (vocabulary).
Which pdf for this exercise
