Our Favorite Reharm Hacks - Peter Martin and Adam Maness | You'll Hear It S2E28 

I could listen to peter reharm all day long. So beautiful.

Been watching the new (Spring 2020) episodes and came back to this older one - didn't recognize Adam at first! All these episodes are so, so helpful - thanks to both of you!

You guys are send from Jazz heaven for us mortals to open our ears. I like Open Studio soo much

Love this channel. Peter and Adam are very knowledgable and make a great team. Thanks

Oooooh my goodness what's this. I love this so much. Heyyy guys be blessed and bless us with more of these. I discovered this page not too long ago but hey am so much in love with what u are doing. Thanks!

That first hack is pure gold! Thank you!

That outro jam was great

Hey, thanks for a great channel and exciting content. This is a gem for anyone looking to advance his improvisation skills!

Thanks guys!!! You said just enough to save this guitar player from having to stare at your hands for a really long time to figure out what the heck you're playing. My ears helped fill in the missing info too :). Great lesson. Reharming can do no harm...at least yours don't!!

Wow super underrated channel, well done guys

Love it, love it, love it.....Thank You!

Love your podcasts and brilliant banter 🤣 big love from the uk!

really loved this one, the overhead camera helps a lot too

I love to play in the 'Big Boy Pool'...I needed a life raft for some of it though...Great stuff!

We love this stuff, keep it up. Brilliant

such a great lesson, you guys are beasts

You are awesome guys! Keep up the good work!

Really love the 3rd reharm hack, thanks for sharing!!!

thanks guys!

Thanks,guys. I use these trix/hacks in songwriting.

yeeees more of this!

This it great stuff guys.

This is the podcast that’s been missing from my rotation.

13:41 killerbassline. Youll hear/see it 😂

Excellent and refreshing. I shall return...

Best duo

This channel should have 20M subscribers. really!!

Oooh, that 2 voice counterpoint reharm is fun. It'd be hard to do it live but its really fun for composition.

That's a VERY creative "hack" that you've shown for "Autumn Leaves" because it's so outside the overly familiar progression.

8:56 thanks I know this sound and loved it, but never consciously figured out what makes it tick. This whole episode and podcast is filled with that sort of thing, so I don't know why I mentioned it in the comments of a half decade old video. Mainly, so I'd have a reference timestamp saved in the comments, to come back to this later🤣

Instant subscribe!

Nice conversation!

The reharm at 9:00 is something Barry Harris uses. The “e” as the root for the Fm chord is part of the diminished chord built into Fm chord (Fm6 diminished scale). The em to A7 is the tritone’s minor (A7 being the tritone of Eb7)

you're are the best I love them!!!!!!!!!!!

Great video! Y’all have Any tips on IMPROVISED reharm WITH a band. Like maybe some reharm ideas to throw in on the fly that can color the sound without being too jarring... This is assuming the other musicians won’t know what coming, but the reharm idea will still sound interesting. Thanks 🤙

great, loved this!

That's mindblowing! I don't know if I'll be able to sleep now with Autumn Leaves rehashed! :) I love the G13,#9 no root chord you played in the beginning - what was that? You went through the first part very quickly! it would help with a brief transcript: Every hack, the reharm chords and the way of thinking - you could even turn it into a course and sell it - like the free spirited way of thinking! I miss the slower break down for the beginning - encore!

idk why that gin and tonic line creased me up 😂

Nice!

I didnt know they were from saint louis😇 HELLO FROM FLORISSANT, MO

Such sweet chords at 5:37!

that bassline hand glitch at 13:43😂😂

Outro was cute

This is A W E S O M E

What kind of stereo bar is that on the mics?

Beautiful son!

Really cool stuff!

8:25 note to self

Thanx, Gentlemen.

I have a weird one: why does a III minmaj7 b 5 (1, b5, M7, m3) sound really good as a substitute for the ending tonic chord? I know there's a point where theory becomes a bit redundant but still curious.... I think it's something similar to that diminished idea at the start

Also, the c in autumn leaves is still a 3rd on the half-diminished chorD iImyb5 the moment you keep this third for instance the Eb on Cm7b5 it still will sound good because of the interval connection and the Minor Mediant. I think this is the Modal approach in this way you could easily rewrite also the theme but keep the functions in the intervals I like for instance It Could Happen to you and play each 4 chords in Either Eb G or Bmajr relativeness...when chord changes is linked to the theme something really interesting occurs, then keeping the original tones...of course the bass player should have those changes also and you guys are talking about playing with all the Darlings in the Closet..being as friendly to your bass player...I love to let them go with me on certain moments....My favorite piano player in Holland is Joost Zwart..he has his compositions being black of all the slash chords, of course, he is also perfectly able to play the Standards with His Explosive Harmony, I have taken this technique directly from Bachs approach...of keeping the numbers...(functions of intervals)

What is that tune played behind the intro at the 0:09 mark?! What a great finger exercise piece!! Great video!!

Your Gbmaj7 superimplied(imposed), over the Bbmaj7, this is the bVi, and is called Shadow harmony, this works because we keep the "Shape" intact, if we even conserve the interval; we could do this on any of the 12 keys but the melodie shifts than while we keep the interval in the chosen Chord...this is a new way of reharmonisation that uses the concept of modality and is actually used mostly if one is able tyo freely improvise without a bass player to have to adjust to... in This we we could write It could happen to You in three different keys the fisrt four bars in Ebmaj the next four in Gm,aj7 the next four in Bmaj, so the meldoe shifts just a major third while modulating but bykeeping the inteval, we can justify it and it works great look normally D7 bar 4 goes and resolves to Ebmaj7, Now it maigically enough resolves to a Gmaj so a normal ordinairy d7 Gmaj V-I progression sounds in thos context rather magical!!!! Check this technique out! I invented this two years ago out of Giant steps analysis + baroque fanatism

0:08

This channel is proof of the fact that piano IS the superior instrument.

It would be nice to see the notation onscreen

What is the intro?

6:09

9:00

Nerds!

Great, I'm bored with the usual changes 😎

what is that freakin intro song??? omg!

Sorry but you talk about things for solo piano... The real challenge is reharm with a bassist you don't know in a jam session for example... Yours from France...

Jesus Christ @7:44 was delicious

13:12 bald headed guy loses interest? Lol

Lost weight and the mustache !

I am going to disagree with Peter's point about surprising listeners with an unexpected reharm .. particularly with the example given here that turns light into darkness, to the extent that it takes the tune and the mood to a different place that actual song is written to evoke .. The thing about standards is not just that they are familiar melodically and harmonically, but that they come with lyrics and lots of memories i.e. a built-in overall sentiment .. Unusual reharms that are theoretically correct but interfere with the anticipation and emotional response of the listener may be interesting and exciting to Berklee grads, but, to put it crudely, are unnecessary musical mast%$#@tion on the part of the artist, and irritating and frustrating for listeners ..

They talk the language of pharasis....like high priest... Don't focus....pls...don't focus on their hand... You will understand nothing...nor their language... Best is to master the scales and be the master of this clowns.
