Vaughn, I just think that this paticular (art - skill - or concept) of understanding how to "play in one place" (or the "sweet spot") is HUGELY important for all aspiring keyboard players to understand. Thanks for addressing this (along with everything else). You might be the only one that "I've" seen on YT so far to cover this very fly & professional musical concept! Thanks again and Good job!
I love this lesson on the different voicings on the left hand chords. I think it's very important and I will be practicing this technique over and over again. Thanks.....👍
I’m not an organist yet,just a keyboard player who wants to learn organ and have organ technique on keeping them chords full and connected without that sustain pedal and may I say this is the best video that would help me out
This is fantastic! I always wondered how organ players could just chill in one spot. It’s all the spot rootless voicing. Seems similar to how bill Evans did his left hand. Very helpful man thank you.
I've been really needing your channel for a very long time. This video specifically really opened up my mind to what I need to really incorporate my left hand when playing.
Hi Vaughan - Excellent lesson! I play tenor sax. I’m planning to apply your II-V-I voice leading principles on my horn. After that, I’m seriously considering purchase of the full set of courses. Thanks a lot. You’re a fabulously fluent player!
I love this. I am a multi-instrumentalist who dabbles on organ. I’ve been working on my LH rootless voicings for a while, but find it hard to come up with the right rootless voicing in my LH on the spot when playing a song. BTW; I’d say m7b5 (half-diminished) chords are pretty challenging to voice well in the left hand. Great Video!
Thanks for the lesson. I’ve been working on this exercise, but I’m go up the scale and keeping all of my notes within C and it’s octave. It’s enhanced my sound tremendously
Outstanding lesson! I play tenor sax & am hoping to master your chromatic II-V-I voicings on horn. Thanks a lot. I’m seriously considering buying into the whole set of lessons.
Not at all, all you have to do is understand how left hand voicings works and apply what I call the "Shell" technique when you play. This gives you the perfect LH voicings every time without fail.

I find it hard to play most chords in the natural keys. It's simply because my fingers are a little big. Lol! They tend to get stuck and hit accidental keys. Besides that, my problem is just wrapping my mind to having two hands play as one.
Jeremy Magee how’d you practice to get your left hand down and improve the instincts of your left hand? Other than this, did you just learn a bunch of songs?
Tell me why the hardest key to learn this progression in was C. After i mastered C the other keys were easy, even E natural was easier to learn than C😂

Awesome!
Yup, when I figure this out, I'm telling my church to find another drummer
You do this well bro. Very good explantions.1
You have the grooviest foot ive ever heard on organ.Like Groove Holmes if he was more into funk in his jazz.
Question - is it difficult for someone whose been playing with their right hand for years to begin to use their left hand for chord accompaniment?
