Waoww expensive stuff for free. Thankyouu so much

That was incredibly helpful to me. Thank you Jeremy. Excellent tutorial as ever.

Another amazing video by Jeremy! ❤

What a fool I have been starting arpeggios on the root!! Thanks for the smart method J.

‘Like the bannister analogy!! Beautiful facile touch .. Inspiring to hear ..!,

Great , awesome and useful . Thanks a million

Thanx, Jeremy 🌹🌹🌹

Wow! I think you just gave me a whole year’s worth of study! 👍

Very useful even for instrumentalist other than piano. Thanks Jeremy 😊❤

pro jazz player.

The best tutorial ever! Thanks so much Jeremy for sharing your awesome jazz tutorial. I love it! Dan of 8 Black Keys.

Thank you. So informative as to the mechanics of where to use arpeggios. Do you have a video on how to practice all the kinds of arpeggios you mentioned?

Jeremy, your videos are highly addictive! Arpeggios are not a new concept for a classical pianist, but this video just made my day! Many things I have been wondering about jazz arpeggios are explained here! P.S. Is this content covered in your book? Possibly in the Solo Jazz Piano book? I am just curious how much of your YT content has covered what’s in your books. A SUGGESTION: Would you possibly create a “Q & A Thread YT video” or something similar where your readers can ask questions regarding your books? It’s hard to do that under random videos. Thank you.

Amazing! I was obsessed with these jazz arpeggios two years ago, and could hardly find anything on them. Rest assured I'll be watching this at 0.25 speed till I work out some of what you were doing in the opening! Thanks!

Thanks for the awesome lesson! I have been writing the things down for myself and thought that it could be useful to others. Please let me know if you don't appreciate summary comments like this - I will not hesitate to delete. (If you appreciate, I might post more in the future as I usually take notes.) my notes pt1: -normal arpeggios and even arpeggios of 7th chords "don't sound like jazz" -don't start on the chord root cause it's least colorful note worldwide -avoid "stack of thirds" arpeggio examples shown: over maj chord: - 3-b7-2 (4ths starting on 3 of a maj chord... can also invert) - 3-6-7(-9) - 7-2(-3)-5 [alernate views: 7th_chord of 2 scale degrees above (inverted)... or arpeggio of 5ths maj triad with #4 added optionaly] over minor chord: ru-vid.comUgkxfuy-p2JqtBpygqHdgqKxB6wT5xxyJwTM - 9-3-5-7 [exampe Fmin] - going up in 4ths, starting on chords 4th [f.e. Bb-Eb-Ab] descending: ru-vid.comUgkx7QiqUDAAV1gbOyPAyB6FjXnJ2qd6VN3f - b3-2-b7-5... optional: finally ending it at 1 and using left hand for that

Great Lesson Jeremy! I had to study your wonderful books so I put RU-vid on standby, but I see you followed my advice to put the mic closer to your mouth. The audio is improving, but the piano is still a little bit loud and causing distortion on some passages. So a mic stand would let you put it closer to your face and the cardioid pattern will lower the piano volume relative to your voice. If you put it on the piano, the piano will always win because of the relative distance and the inverse square law, just as for lighting. Anyway you are doing a great job!

Fantastic stuff - thank you Jeremy! I am wondering what your recommendation would be for practising this style - obviously, put in as many arpeggios into one tune as possible ;-) but about the speed, would it make more sense to slow the whole tune down (while I'm playing slower arpeggios and wanting to practise hitting the right notes), or just play in a more rubato style and take my time at the arpeggio-moments? The urge to speed up for the 'effect' is strong, but I feel like practising slower and getting the accuracy would be more important at the start. Any thoughts? Thanks again.

17:30 one of my favorite ways to use the two handed technique is to arpeggiate a major triad with a flattened 2nd. Great upper structure that Jeremy uses throughout this video. Ex arpeggio over C7#9: Eb E G Bb (LH plays the Eb, RH plays the other three). Brilliant video and playing as usual!

The first part sounded like Art Tatum on amphetamines, or after just learning he won the lottery.

Mr. Sisking only shows off his great technique and how fast he can play. Not even slowing down the video is it possible to know in detail which notes he plays in the arpeggios (and don't tell me they are written in that book that you never stops advertising, because I have got the book and the notes aren't written there either). I sincerely believe that you lack humility, Mr. Siskind. Who can learn something in this way? Or, is it that perhaps your classes are for virtuosos??
