Diminished scales are symmetrical and the chords derived from them are as well. So, voicings can be transposed up or down in minor 3rds. Also, it's a 3 for 1 deal: any voicing for say a C dim7 chord also works for Eb-Gb-Adim7 chords as well!
@@reggaefan2700 you can call them whatever you want if it helps you think about them and employ them beneficially. the consensus is, though: "7th chord" is a category of chords - a sound category like "triad" or "interval". 9, 11 & 13 (whether altered or not) are considered extensions to chords that add color without redefining the sound completely.
Man as someone who plays a one note at a time type instrument, it really opened my eyes to whats going on in the rest of the group looking at scores and trying to learn a little keyboard. It all makes more sense now 😊
Amazing isn't cliche. . .This is why I find it hard to talk with other musicians. They seem to just have a need to find a way to denigrate something musically to show some special sophistication that THEY have but that most others don't. I only enjoy talking about music with non-musicians because they don't have that need to impress me with some special knowledge or understanding that only THEY have. If something sounds great, it's not cliche. . .It's GREAT!
Wow--I hope _I'm_ not like that! (Professionally, I'm a church pianist, but I also do other types of music for fun (and I'm also learning guitar) and hope to pursue these other genres more on a professional level when I retire from my data entry job, whenever that may be.)

@@MomLAUthere's a balance between improving your skill with complicated technique and implementing them at the right time and keeping it simple, it's all about the attitude tho if you're a humble musician I wouldn't worry but the people who are trying to be the "best musician" and just flex strait complex impressive music can take away from the groove by trying to be "the best" but the groove is half the music and it's best simple
Fabulous. I was aware of (most of) these voicings, but I can't pull them out instantly over just any changes. Now, a nice bounded enumeration of them along with a practical etude. In my daily practice routine now until I access all of them habitually. Thanks!
@reggaefan2700 It can be confusing, but in jazz harmony, it's common to notate chords as just 7ths. This shows all the tonal information you need to know the chord quality. The extensions you add from there are a matter of taste and don't usually change the function of the chord (ie: 9, #9, 11, 13 b13 etc). That's how I view it anyway!
I watch your shorts religiously. This is my first time catching a long form video. If this video is representative of the content that is in your courses, I may be purchasing content from you guys. This is a well put together video and even though it’s basic jazz chord structure, I still found myself learning things that I can use when playing!
C half diminished (Eb mi6 with 6th in bass) is an Ab 7 add 9 with 3rd in bass or Dalt with 7th in bass. Add F natural 1/2 step below Gb makes an Eb mi 6/9 with 6th in bass which is a 5 note voicing which can be played with all 5 fingers of one hand. Played chromatically descending alternates a 7th #11 and an Alt chord in circle of fourths or ascending in circle of fifths.
This was so useful! For as long as I’ve played jazz, diminished and half diminished chords have always been a challenge for me. I never had anyone show me how to voice those chords. Now I have something to practice :)
Yes, I've heard that a million times...and been desiring to do that...and nobody ever got to explain it until the great Adam Maness!!! THANK YOUUUUUUUU!!!! 🙂
@@reggaefan2700 the natural 9 can be added to any chord without changing its quality. If it's a sharp or flat 9 it does change the sound, so that's why those are usually explicitly written out. The guide tones (third and seventh) are the only notes that matter for determine the quality of a chord (besides accidentals like flat 5, sus4 etc)
13:50 because a diminished chord is symmetrical in four ways and there are (at least) 4 different keys where you can play the same diminished chord instead of a dominant chord, you can always play the root note of the dominant chord of the key where you are in, with the diminished chord. And you can do that in four keys so that’s why you can play 4 different voicings of the same diminished chord. Is that a good explanation?
Both of my Jazz piano and jazz theory courses took place at the height of the pandemic and lockdown so when we covered these chords I was never able to get the context that they're rootless lol the root pedal tone trick was all i needed to actually here these chords properly 😂

This is so useful and well taught Adam! I love the demonstration you did at the end to get a feel on how to use delicious cookie cutter chords! Thanks!!

man you are a very good teacher because you teach which kind of chord to use by playing a jazz standard before i had a lot of problem which kind of chord to use the system who helped me a lot is you magic voicing system man god bless you forever long
I haven't read all the comments, but as far as I scrolled down I didn't see anyone commenting on your fingering the left hand voicings with your 5th and 2nd fingers. Perhaps that's because you want your thumb available for three-note voicings in your left hand. I've found it handy to have both 2 and 3-note LH quartal-based voicings in my tool kit. Love your videos, whether solo or with Peter Martin. Keep them coming.
Diminished chords are "Symmetrical"! They rotate nicely. Thanks for the pdf Adam, I'm going to inject it into my DNA. NOTE: I saw Mccoy Tyner twice and he didn't play any of these chords; He played ALL of them!
Adam, great content and beautifully and hilariously presented. One thing I love about your playing is your touch on these chords - very strongly, uniformly played. Adds to the strength and vibe of the chords!
@@reggaefan2700 Yes, but when writing chord names and symbols in a tune, if the extension (9th, 11th, 13th) isn't essential to the sound, we don't write it down. This way it can be read faster and the player can decide which extensions and alterations to play.
About the diminished chord and it's 3 other shapes: As seen in the video... you can create a new diminished chord using any note of the chord as bass. For example, a diminished chord starting on C. Form another starting on E flat. Form another starting on G flat, Form another starting on A.
Super useful!! I really got a dopamine hit when you put the miles davis easter as I heard that as soon as you played the voicing the first time but thought oh well maybe its just similar haha
The diminished voicings are technically a dominant 7 flat mine with a different bass note. Ex. The Bb dim was a C7 with a flat 9 with a Bb in the bass. C7b9/Bb
Sweet music to my ears...&...hands...thanks for the overview and your time and efforts to share....AND Adam....thanks for music without an agenda. (Because what a perversion of the beauty of music that would be😥). A beautiful explanation and introduction to the magnificence of sound. Thankyou 😉
I loved this lesson. Really appreciated. For me are advanced not cookie cutters at all 😅.Besides the beautiful sounding voicings mostly created in fourth etc, is there any reason why the minor ones are the only containing the root?
lucky me I wondered what it was for yrs. I know 6/9 chords but not in that open fourth order, never could guess by ear how it sounded so idk "Vegas in the 1960's" like. So thanks a lot! edit: also min 7 in open fourths is like old TV shows like hawaii five-o if I'm right
Haven't seen anyone address the diminished chord inversion question: you just move that voicing up a minor 3rd, since diminished chords are built on minor 3rds
@@OpenStudioJazz I thought about it and all the notes you used build the whole- half diminished scale, I didn't really understand that chord or that scale very well until this video. The way I'm thinking about it is using the major 9 in front of each inversion of the chord moving up in minor thirds.
13:46 They're just major chords with a root note a semitone higher? That's what made them easy to play for me. For example ... B/C D/Eb F/Gb Ab/A Obviously you can see the notes on both sides of the slash spell out diminished chords (from top to bottom) and are a minor 3rd apart. Even more interestingly if you take both of those it essentially spells out a Cdim7 superimposed on top of a Bdim7. Extending this further to include the one diminished chord not used in the above example you can see the slash chord you're playing can be found anywhere going horizontally if you extended this up the full chromatic scale... B/C/Db D/Eb/E F/Gb/G Ab/A/Bb That what you wanted to hear? BTW I'm not sure if this has any meaning but going diagonally in that grid produces a wholetone scale
Love this! I like to think of these diminished voicings as a 7th with b9 so for the Diminished 7 starting on Eb in the bass - I'm thinking of that as the b9 of with D7 on top (bottom up - b9 5 R 3 b7) so D7 with the b9 on the bottom if that makes sense, then transposed up in minor 3rds. Helps me to see the notes better! 🎹😀
I love these voicings. Thanks for sharing the PDF. I noticed though that the PDF has sharp 5's notited as flat 6's much of the time, and sharp 9's as minor 3rds. Thats pretty confusing, although it might make the reading easier.
My jazz teacher always had issues with "#5" in charts, that it should really be b13 most of the time. I agree that #9 should be notated #9. IMHO, they should be notated functionally. b6 and b3 as you mention are probably because of the software used, unfortunately.
As soon as I heard the Dominant7alt. I thought of Tyner's sound on Wise One (Crescent album) after min.3 approx. when the rubato cadenza ends and He starts that middle tempo, those chords building such a gradual tension... that's the sound... amazing!
To answer your questions... not sure about this but would you call those chords "modal" voicings? The other question I would probably say it was moving up by minor 3rds? Probably wrong on both but gave it a try haha.
Great video! I’ve been a classical / rock keyboardist most of my life and just recently getting into jazz. Beautifully explained and has helped me tremendously. Thank you!

With the diminished inversions he is always using the fourth of the second note from low to high. It is whole-half scale harmonization

Anyone else hear a high-pitched ringing behind most of this?
Amazing, thank you
tune at 0:19 is solar, but couldn't identify the one before
Great video!
