A SUBSCRIBER'S BOOK ENDORSEMENT - "Mootrevo" just wanted to do a shout-out for your book; People, I’ve been using Kent’s book every day for over a year, and it’s a work of art. If you like Kent’s playing and the way he explains jazz and music harmony, and the songs he chooses as examples... then RUN, don’t walk to Kent’s website and get this book. He IS far too modest about this amazing jazz workbook he has created. It is simply the best I have ever used, and I’ve tried a lot of them. It has improved my playing and understanding of jazz theory tremendously. I can’t imagine any student of jazz piano and/or jazz harmonic theory not liking this book. It’s simply that good. It’s fun. It’s straight forward. And unlike so many other jazz books, it’s not boring!! M.🙂
Kent is up early and cranking out a new video back home in the woodshed. Awesome. Now back in the studio. Still working through the appendix-wow. So much there.
This is great - thank you! I love when you boil things down to simple principles: You’re either on the beat; or off the beat. You’re playing long or short. You’re supporting the melody or playing in the spaces. You’re book is fantastic too - thank you. I’m mostly a guitarist (occasionally piano dabbler) but I find I get a lot from your lessons anyhow.
This is out of my pay grade, for now. But I like listening to your videos just to pick up information to store away for later. I was surprised at the woodshed, and liked the ending video with that view from the Ranch. Merci beaucoup, and hope your in good health.
I’ve been playing since I was 4 and have really hardcore trouble learning by reading. I’m wired to learn by listening and watching sadly. But I can jam well I just don’t know what the heck I’m doing or any of the language to describe modulation or any of that. Chord progressions and the theory sometimes gets in the way for me… I just play and think about my day. I hardly think about what I’m playing…

Kent as always great video, you explain it so clearly. Thanks for taking the time to share the joy of learning music.
Thank you so much!
I lost your channel year ago and was super sad until I found you again. You’re my favorite online tutor hands down.
Thanks so much for telling me!

Thanks for the comment and for buying the Appendix!

Thanks so much...I love to hear from guitarists.

Some people have talent for learning by ear, and that's fine. If you can also learn intellectually and by reading ...that's also good.
😅😅😅 great teacher always
Thank you! 😃

Wynton Kelly was Amazing.
