Jazz Piano Fundamentals
Did you ever intentionally sit down to learn Jazz theory from the beginning?
If I were to meet with a new piano student, our first 10-20 lessons would be dedicated to Jazz theory.
Things like interval counting...
How to build 7th chords...
How to add chord extensions (b9 #9 #11 b13 and so on)...
Which scales to play over each chord type...
How to know what key a Jazz song is in...
The 2-5-1 progression (and all its variations)...
'Swing time' vs. 'straight time' - and when to play in each...
Slash chords - knowing how to play 'Gm7 / C' for example...
And the list goes on.
This doesn't happen by accident
Learning the fundamentals of Jazz theory doesn't happen by accident...
It's something you have to learn step-by-step, preferably all in one go.
The fundamentals are actually where most of the work takes place - and once you've built your foundation, it's relatively easy to add new techniques on top.
If you want to succeed at Jazz piano, there's no way around the fundamentals.
Without them, you can never feel truly confident in your playing.
Everything you need in one place
I've now filmed a step-by-step video course that teaches you ALL the fundamentals of Jazz theory in one place:
It's called 'Jazz Piano Fundamentals'. This course gives you the exact lesssons I would normally teach to a new student in the first 1-2 years.
The 'Jazz Fundamentals' course walks you through the most important part of learning Jazz piano - the fundamentals - and shows you exactly what to practice.
"What will I learn?"
-
How to count intervals quickly and accurately (4ths, 5ths, tritones, etc).
-
The 6 types of Jazz chord (and how to build them from any note).
-
Chord extensions explained (everything you need to know). Learn to add 9ths, 11ths, 13ths, b9ths, #11ths, b13ths - and every other chord extension under the sun.
-
How to number chords correctly (not everyone does this): When to use '6' versus when to use '13'. When to use '4' versus when to use '11'.
-
The top 5 Jazz scales you need to know (most of Jazz is made up of these 5 scales).
-
The chord / scale relationship - and how to know which scale to play over any chord.
-
Slash Chords explained - everything you need to know to play and voice slash chords.
-
The 2-5-1 chord progression (and all of its variations).
-
Other common chord progressions in Jazz.
-
Harmonic analysis of Jazz songs. Learn how to analyse a Jazz song just by looking at chord symbols and the sheet music. Identify any song's 'home key' and spot the modulations.
-
'Swimg Time' and 'Straight Time' explained (essential). Learn how to hear the difference between these two completely different rhythms that Jazz uses.
-
Practice Exercises with each lesson - I give you one homework assignment after each lesson, designed to ingrain what you learned.
