Easy Jazz Piano Exercise To Master Quartal Voicings. Works for All Levels. #jazzpiano

Here's the Best Exercise To Master Quartal (Modal) Jazz Piano Chords. We use the Dorian scale (mode). This is a jazz piano lesson for beginners to intermediate piano players. This is a 3-step exercise you can practice every day:
Step 1. Chromatic Parallel Voicings
Step 2. Combining 2 Quartal Voicings
Step3. Combining 3 Quartal Voicings

In this video we also show how to build quartal voicings at the piano, using 5-note voicings (2 Left Hand + 3 Right Hand). You can use these voicings in modal tune (modal or quartal harmony) or jazz standards if you want a more modern sound. McCoy Tyner is a great example of how these chords are used.

Thank you for explaining this! Didn’t understand this many moons ago. Back at piano now and this is making it much more fun.

[Bruce.-Wayne]

Modal is was such a master of that mode

Your videos on jazz are simply the best. I know it's not a competition, but, as a pop and rock pianist, I watch jazz lesson videos as inspiration to become more dedicated to expanding my Knowledge and technique. MDecks ALWAYS sounds hipper...seriously.
The presentation and explanation quality is like taking a ride in a Bentley. Cheers, thanks a lot.

[ehdmc]

As always. Informative, interesting, well-made.
What else do we intermediate-to-advanced musicians want. This kinda quality video

I’m viewing this on my iPad and for the life of me I can’t find the link to download the PDF for this lesson. I’m signed into YouTube. I’m signed into your page. I clicked the Word membership on your page and this lesson is nowhere to be found can you please help me thank you very much, Robert.

Hello mDecks staff, great lesson as always. Could you please tell us the chords used in the intro ? I hear and see Cm7, C#m7, Cm7, then I am lost. That would be very informative as an example of this lesson.

[danle]

Very good explaining and thank you. One question I have about Q chords is that you have to build a melody around it, right?
Just take a popular song and try to use Q chords, I have not been successful at it.
Or is that possible, and can you do one, like The Xmas Song, for example, to see how we can do it. Thank you so much.

Can you use these quartals in a choir ?

[TheTandooridude]

[linsushin]

Hi, Can I still get the pdf of this video?

[eyesoulyou]

Possible to find the backing track anywhere ?

[abdelazizallouche]

Hi teacher. Aren't those So what chords?

[dannuttle]

I struggle to understand the key point behind this. At first, you play chords that are diatonic within C Dorian, I think. So that means the fourths are not always perfect fourths, and that is what leads to the trtione Eb-A. Then the exercises show chords that have perfect fourths, plus the major third on top, whether they fit C Dorian or not. Is that the lesson/point/conclusion? If so, won't the A-flat in some chords clash with the A if you are improvising in C Dorian?
