    I absolutely love the way this was structured - it went from "Oh, I can do that..." to "Oh, I can probably do that..." to "I better go practice that..." Brilliantly done.

    I've learned more about theory - in a way that I can actually use it - from watching your videos for the last year or so, than I have in the last 20 years. At least.

    This is the best video I have ever seen for "accompanying a singer", and it wasn't even meant for that purpose. Fabulous. I think Adam should do a video for Accompanying a singer. I don't think he has done one before.

  • @jakeperl5857
    @jakeperl5857 10 месяцев назад +1

    Fantastic goldmine here, thank you! Indeed, the "moo" voicing is typically referred to in CCM and gospel circles as just a "drop 2" though I've learned from your lessons on drop x chords there's much more to the story in jazz. In any case, I can't wait to put some of this to use in church tomorrow!

    @DoubleBassX2 9 месяцев назад

    You're genuinely such an inspiring teacher!
    As a musician with other-than-jazz origins, I've never used the bVI bVII quite like this before! I usually devolve back into either the cliché Picardy thing or just a VI-VII-i in the parallel minor key.
    (Please excuse any potentially odd semantics or improperly labeled chords, I'm still learning and not trying to show off haha)

  • @pgtips4240
    @pgtips4240 3 дня назад

    I am seriously considering subbing to your courses I really like your friendly natural approach to teaching it keeps the mind interested and focused.
    I have seen this approach of developing secondary dominants and more with tritones etc but where I always stumble is often the melody note can sound off and I really then struggle to move forward. I think sometimes I make things harder for myself too because I forget to make my experiments rhythmic and it will not sound like music without some kind or timing.

  • @michaelamorello3348
    @michaelamorello3348 9 месяцев назад

    After the moo chord I was a little stuck in ambiguous tonality trying to follow along, maybe just my tastes need catching up. But then the modal interchange part solidified the vibe and WOW...just WOW thank you for this lesson!

    Hey Adam, can you please do a GPS on how to make the "basic" stuff sound good, like what you do at the beginning 11:30 -> 12:30? It's just the starting point and sounds amazing but as a beginner I'm already lost lol.

    Marvelous instruction and exercises! So many inspirational ideas!
    As I listen through again it occurs to me that someone could improvise over these exercises with another instrument, like a sax or a muted trumpet. Not to mention putting improvised bass parts to go with every one of these variations. Loving it! 😊

    More and more Open Studio clips have been showing up in my yT feed which is good. Earlier yesterday I went to the website for the first time and posted some questions in a note on the website, like at 7 pm. Saturday. Then I woke up at 2 am Sunday and this class was in my feed completely relevant to what I asked 7 hours ago. (The AI mass surveillance state did something useful for once in its wretched life. Scary world but appreciated in this instance.)

    Nice! Figuring out how to solo in that way… so every dominant is a key change. It s weird that you walk the circle of fifths but for scales used on those chords it does not follow the same way on the circle.

    0:59 all that is is a ii V I in F Major to get to the IV chord in C Major. The original groove you're implying is simply a "1 - 4" chord progression in C Major.

    Wow, I was practicing chromatic scales just yesterday. Why do you use 1-2-1-2-3 fingering? I was taught to do it this way (as a classical piano student), but have read 1-2-1-2 allows you to go faster. What are your thoughts on this?

    This is all about major I - IV. But what about minor I IV ? I am not a music theory specialist, but for example Cm7 , the II would be a Dmin7b5 chord, where to put now the logic in movements etc. ? Just give me a hint. I am a guitarist, have little knowledge about "correct" piano voicing.
