Every Solo Jazz Piano Technique You'll Ever Need - Part 1

Once you understand this chord structure, your piano playing will never be the same. It's used commonly in both Jazz and Neo Soul, but you'll really hear it used in an absolutely gorgeous way in modern Neo Soul-Inspired tracks that cross genres as well. A really important part of this sound is the dim(maj7) chord, i.e. a diminished triad with a major 7. The structure comes down to being built like a block chord, but with a major 7 instead of a 6. Use this over any melody or chord progression for a modern sound. Enjoy this jazz and Neo Soul piano tutorial with Noah Kellman.

This video highlights my major problem, what to fix “inside”. The three hand technique is a revelation. I know I’ve heard it being used and said “how do they do that??” Thanks!!

Man, where was this back when I was in high school! Definitely going to take advantage of this now! Thanks for posting!

I have a 12 year old daughter that plays piano & I am sure this video will help getting her interested in playing jazz piano.

Noah, it's so highly effective the way you demonstrate inner motion! I especially like that you break it down with a drill that can be done for those inner fingers. I'm still working on a compilation of my seven favorite NK tutorials. For sure this is one of them! 😊🙏🎼🎵😎🎹

Outstanding lesson. Great content taught clearly. I wish all teachers were like that. Your playing reminds me of Bill Evans meets Lyle Mays. Looking forward to the other videos in this series. Thanks.

It's hard but it provides a huge sense of accomplishment after the hard work. ❤

If you gained immortality, in any way, it would be a gift to all aspiring pianists. You may not be the greatest of all time, but you're definitely in the same room with them. Your lessons are appreciated.

Really cool video. Lots of food for my brain.

[NathanDugiTurner]

Outstanding lesson. Simple, , direct, effective, sounds great, and still leaves a lot open for experimentation and creativity. Will be "borrowing" this idea for my own students. :-) Thanks for all your amazing work!

[bekagigauri]

Another incredible lesson!
Thanks Noah !

Thanks for these tips. Very useful for someone of my level who is in the early stages of working on the toolbox.
