This is helpful. I learned my chord qqualities by practicing through modal arpeggios of major and melodic minor, but never the same root with all stacked next to eachother. I can see how that would help a lot.

For some reason, describing chord voicings on piano as “grips” locked in a concept that had always been a bit more abstract in my head for mapping my way around piano. Stacking right hand (or also left hand) “grips” over a bass note simplifies how to conceptualize chord voicings and slash chords for me. Thanks Nathan!

This is a great video, Nathan! Thank you very much for all of the insight. I will definitely be using the cycle lick that you demonstrated. For ii V Is in in major keys, here's a couple voicings you may like ii - (LH) 1 b7 | (RH) b3 5 9 | V - 1 3 | b7 9 13 | I - 1 7 3 5 9. (In these progressions, feel free to alter the 9 or 13 on the V chord as you please.) The second one is richer to my ear, and it goes - ii (LH) | 1 b3 | b7 9 5 | V - 1 b7 3 13 9 | I - 1 3 | 7 9 5. For minor ii Vs, simply take these structures and adjust the quality alterations accordingly. Additionally, here's my favorite major 9 voicing - (LH) 1 5 - (RH) 9 3 5 7. You can also substitute the RH 5 for a #11. I hope you enjoy these sounds! There are amazing colors that you can access when utilizing the range of the LH

I totally agree with Parkerpolen's voicings! The 1-7-3-5-(-9-13) voicing is KING! That's the basic starting point for all functional jazz keyboard courses at colleges and universitites for non-keyboardists wanting to learn good practical basic jazz voicings.

Yeah, that was a lot of condensed stuff in a short time. I’ve started taking piano seriously for exactly the reasons he talks about. I knew about the chords (OK grips!) on the third, but not the others. What was it, the flat 5, and the flat 7? I’m going to have to review all that in slow time. Incidentally, I wouldn’t call those voicings, they are chord extensions.

Nathan. You've hit it out of the park with this tutorial! I often wondered when and why I might use a keyboard to understand chord progressions. I, long ago, had noticed that progressions follow the cycle of fourths but you filled in blanks that explains why I need to practice (chord qualities) before getting to the keys. I like that you stressed on practicing them until they become instinctual. I just might buy your course! Smashing job, Mr. CEO! 😊

It's worth pointing out that the basic root movement in western music is a descending 5th - hence the V I cadence - e.g. G down to C. Secondary dominants are thought of as V of V. When "uneducated" jazz players came across this, they had what classical players called a "degenerate" view, which was really just a lateral view, of the same thing, without the weight of a couple of hundred years of classical music culture, and saw this as an ascending 4th movement. The ubiquitous 2 5 1 (ii V I) movement in jazz is really 2 descending 5ths. Ultimately it doesn't matter - jazz players see ascending 4ths, classical players see descending 5ths. Same same.

Why do you write the cycle of fourths anti-clockwise? Clockwise seems more natural to me. Just wondering. Enjoyed the video.
@braedenmorris3160
Жыл бұрын
In music theory, there is the circle of fifths but also the circle of fourths. The circle of fourths is more favored upon jazz musicians while the circle of fifths is more favored upon classical and standard musicians playing apart from jazz. The circle that Nathan posted is technically the circle of fourths and the circle of fifths. If you go note by note on that circle counterclockwise it is the circle of fourths because each note is a fourth apart. If you go clockwise though, it is known as the circle of fifths because then the notes are a fifth apart. Once again, jazz musicians prefer the circle of fourths as the chords and progressions which come along with it are more common in jazz.

I loved the video and actually learnt from it... though i have a question. I've always been referring to the circle of fifths rather than fourths. Apart from the argument that from your experience it's just more used usually, is there any other reason? Like, why do you recommend those scale patterns with fourths rather than with fifths? There must be a convicing reason out there

Play them daily for as long As you need after you learn them. I usually replay tunes I learn for a week until I get them in my long term memory. Also this information will snowball look for patterns in tunes- for example turnarounds being similar or going to the four chord in the bridge.
