In this video, I will walk you through 12 different ways to voice the 2-5-1 progression in the key of C. We're going to start simple and easy, using triads, and then work our way up to more advanced voicings using concepts such as quartal harmony, polychords, tensions, cluster voicings, rootless chords and more. We won't be doing any substitutions, though - that's going to be a different video!
Although this video doesn't delve into the theory, here are some other videos from my channel that will help you explore some of the concepts here in more depth.

MangoldProject: I'd really love to see a video from you explaining the ideas that go into the "noodling" right hand. At 5:45 and 8:05 for example. You clearly have a lot of go-to patterns, rhythms and scales that you know are going to sound great. And a lot of talent and practice, but I want to practice the Right Stuff! I'm going to transcribe those examples, but I know it's about concepts, not just notes, and I'm sure a video from you explaining those concepts would be amazing. Thank you.

I have come across all the concepts covered in the video, and it’s really nice to see everything covered in one video to validate everything my thinking of how to play jazz voicing. For example for ploy-chords and counterpoint I did not read it anywhere but more like experimenting such concepts on my own, and really good to know it’s actually a valid way to play in such styles for Jazz. Great video and thank you so much!

Can you please do a tutorial on how to do jazz runs over chords like the ones you did at 14:22?! That would be amazing! I have been wondering how to play melodies or runs like that. If you would be able to specify the choice of notes or patterns you use to construct those runs as well as the kind of swing timing that you might apply with it, I would be so grateful! Not that I am not grateful already, your videos are such a big help!

@chrisdavis2161 4 года назад

I'm a jazz pianist.... Runs you can either copy from other people... Or you can construct them yourself using scales, modes, and simply playing around with what sounds good... When you take a 251 progression the very first thing you want to do is play around with the chord tones... When that gets boring, move on to playing with the scales... The Major scale of the 1 in 251 (use the pentatonic scale, blues scale, etc. Then move into modes based on the 2 and 5. Then use scales outside the diatonic as long as you can resolve to the 251 progression within your phrase. You have to feel it and have jam sessions with yourself.... Eventually you'll be able to hear things you want to play... It takes time and practice

Also i did on the Ist step: LH (in Fmajor) A D G(as you showed) and DG C# -(with a solution possibility to B) and C-F B- going to A maybe, I wish this commend is helpful, maybe this is too outsight? please let me know!

To avoid confusion, I guess the rootless voicing gets its name from a chord that is being played inversely and it's not just a new concept, Yes?

@ipudisciple 5 лет назад

The rootless voicing gets its name from the fact that it's a voicing without a root, meaning it's missing the tonic note from the chord. So CM7 (rootless) might be voiced as E,G,B. The idea is that someone else is playing the root (typically a bass). An inversion is something like E,G,C for C major. So it has the tonic, but not in the bass. Inversions are very much not a new concept. Bach and Mozart used them all the time. Rootless voicings with someone else playing the root are also old - many or most orchestral orchestrations work that way for the higher parts. Rootless voicings where no-one else is playing the root require a more educated listener (why isn't that E,G,B just E minor?) so might be newer, but doubtless someone will dig up some classical examples.
