The Perfect Chord Formula? 

I love you guys. This channel has single handedly helped me progress in my piano playing so much. Never stop making videos please, your hard work never goes unnoticed. ❤

This is the some of the best teaching.

3 thumbs up...because 1 is from the extra hand I woke up with this morning! 🤣

Great lesson! You’re a great teacher!

This is to state that your Short chords training for all keys are really amazing

Thank you so much for using the electronic visual keyboard! Makes so much of a difference in learning! ❤

Keep doing the right job

thanks Adam Maness openstudio " the middle hand "

Every now and then I come to your channel to learn about jazz theory. I love being able to have this much information accessible and easy to comprehend! I have been using this kind of chord structure since I started producing music haha

I feel so embarrassed that I am not paying for this.

Now finally I've found where did A Bu found these gorgeous resolution in his ballade in E, which are one tone above the A7-Dmaj7 resolving Coltrane's Countdown. A Bu does B7-Emaj7 in the exact same way.

I am a proud,life long Blues devotee’. I began on guitar at the age of ten. At church, my fellow guitarist friend introduced me to his fathers copy of the the Library of Congress recordings. The raw rhythm and amazing syncopation expressed w/ primal modality has reached across six decades and constantly challenged and engaged my heart and soul. I believed that the inspired iterations of the jazz masters beyond the grasp of a simple Blues man. But the few times I have watched the video great podcast, I see that whole world opening to me! Thank you so much. I am hoping to find the means to budget full participation in this great program. Thank you

You are doing right the free PDF is very good for me because not everyone have money to pay for the pdf thus for me you are amazing

I can't believe how good this is. Thank you for this!!

beautiful love you bro please more

RSP. I'm here for it. Thanks for sharing!

This is so good! I’m about to subscribe to Open Studio. Adam and Peter offer so much useful material!

Thank you again Adam. You're videos help me when I'm stuck in a rut with piano and these videos give me something else to focus on.

Thanks for your teaching. I have seen many jazz piano music teachings, but your teaching is simpler and easier to understand. ❤

YES he’s back with some more golden nuggets for all of us! Love you Adam!

Brilliant!! This explained so many questions for me. I am a saxophone player that does a lot of arranging. I have always struggled with writing out piano parts so I tend to just put chord symbols. NOW, I think I can give the pianist real parts also. Thank you!!

Omfg this is exacty something I've been slowly realizing in my chart reading studies, and you have a video deep diving head first. Love this channel! And I'm a guitarist lol!

Beautiful

Thank you for this. Love it!

Great class, I learned alot, many thanks!

Excellent lesson. Thank you sir!

It’s a lovely sound.

You're definitely the MAN Adam! Easy to understand and great results.

Too good.

Extra thumbs up!

Is there any special treatment for inverted chords in this formula ? Or is it working only for the root position chords?

I need a piano 😢

Do you have an online course?

Hi ! Suppose we just have a melody, how do we find the root of this melody? and how do I know in the shell if my seventh is minor or major, same thing for the third! Thank you for understanding.

in what situation is the 6 part of the shell voicing? on major 7ths if the melody is the root?

Works on guitar too. With some adaption😏

You start out great...nice and slow, but then you're blasting through this like a college calculus teacher, going faster, and faster, fasterfasterasterastseraster!!!!! To the point where I almost have to slow down the playback to 50% speed to keep up.

Brilliant thumbnail btw…

THEORY ALERT! The 13th of g# minor should be e#, not f natural. DAMMIT! But even with this "glitch", it was a great lesson (as always!)

How does drop-x voicings relate to this?

What about half diminished? Is the b5 a shell note or a pretty note? Is the b5 mandatory?

I thought But not for me started on the II7

Could someone explain why the 3rd is more important than the 5th?

You down with RSP (Root, Shell, Pretty)? You know me.

Magic chords, cookie cutter chords, rootless, shell, root + shell + pretty... How am I gonna suppose to digest all this? xD

First time first

So basically the formula comes down to; screw fifths, unless they’re pretty
