I feel like blues is just, blues. Straight straightforward genre. Jazz on the other hand I think of more as a collage of incorporations of different music going on at once. Just think of all the instruments used in jazz. It has so much room for variety and progression, thus can easily incorporate blues while still being jazz altogether.

The main thing I find the difference between jazz and blues is the elements of the sounds; blues has more of a striking pose to it than jazz would, and jazz has more of a smooth flow instead of the striking pose blues give. That’s what I personally notice between most.

I love jazz! I picked up piano 2 years ago with the goal to be able to improvise in jazz. It’s quite hard but I see myself as a fast learner. I learned quite a lot of music theories by watching RU-vid. Now I can do some improvisations in C major G major and A minor. As well as comping pop songs in these keys… If you were to give a piece of advice to me, what would you say the next steps are, given my current ability and skills?

Agree on most things, but I DON'T understand how you can say blues is more straight 8, while jazz is more swingy. Slow blues is 6/8 which is triplet-based (Mannish Boy, The Sky is Cryin). Fast blues is shuffle (Before You Accuse Me, Sweet Home Chicago). Listen to the great blues recordings, there are only a few straight 8s.

As a new content creator, I was making decisions as to how to edit down a 40 minute video into 10 or 12 minutes. And one has to pick and choose the material that goes into a video. At that time I was not sure who my audience was going to be. And I eventually chose that I wanted intermediate to advanced pianists and not be limited to music fans. So if I had to redo this video for intermediate and advanced players it would certainly be done differently. But at the time I did it for the general public. I took into consideration that perhaps the general public didn't know as much about music theory. I tried to keep it as simple as possible. There is nothing more complicated to it. Really just editing down content that may be consumed by the general public. So that's why all the comments matter. Hopefully people read them and learn more. Because my viewers certainly bring business and musical intelligence to the conversation. Hope that helps you understand.

In my mind I always thought that the blues is all about the heart, you play what you feel. While Jazz is more about what is correct, it's analytical. Not saying both cant be the other way around, but you don't see Jazz musicians wailing their hearts as they sing, they lul you and tell you why they miss their lover so much

Music is like wine. How the brains interprets the senses is very personal. A fruity wine may taste very "bitter" to one and the other may detect citrus in the flavour. Based on our experiences and memorries, our brain interprets smells, sounds and images in different ways. Think of music tthe same way. What may sound soothing to one may sound "confusing" to another. There is no right or wrong. Our love of music is a personal thing, and that is the power of music. It moves people in different ways. 🧡🧡🧡

Come from a place of service. Not from a place of ego. If you come from a place of ego, then fear, doubt and competition will keep you away from the joy of performing. When you come from a place of service, you play from the heart and will experience more joy in your life. And in the moments you do experience grief, pain or loss, music will be there to comfort you and others around you.

Coming from a rock & metal perspective, blues was a lot easier to get into (metal has it's roots in rock, which has it's roots in blues, so it makes sense). Blues has that same melancholic feel that metal has, jazz is more upbeat and "happy-sounding", at least the songs I've heard. I don't think I mind the more complex or technical melodies, since metal music has those, too, but then again, I don't know... I doubt a jazz music fan could just pick up Slayer or Children of Bodom and just get it the first time they hear it. It takes time to ease into a new genre, starting off with more approachable bands first...

As a blues musician who’s played clubs in and out of LA and the SD area, I wanna say the snobbery from the jazz community is ridiculous. I adore jazz, my favorites are bill evans, Brubeck, Coltrane and so on. I find the musicianship in jazz to be AMAZING something me and my guitar couldn’t replicate as well without proper training. I see blues as the predecessor to jazz, but that doesn’t mean it’s worse (which is not what you’re saying I’m just pointing that out). Bb king, Steven ray, Elmore James, Ray Charles (though he loved jazz too), Albert king, Etc.. amazing musicians who have touch no one could replicate! Same goes for the jazz side in terms of musical brilliance as well. Just two sides of the same coin

This is my opinion on the matter. Jazz has so many genres, there is no one defining genre of jazz. Contrary to what so many people say, Jazz ≠ swing. Jazz is an umbrella term used to define Big Band, Swing, BigBandSwing, Bepop, Dixieland, Electro Swing, Bop, Pop, and even forms of rap to name a few. Jazz is also not exclusive to New Orleans, examples include: Kansas City Jazz, Mambo, Bossa Nova, European Free Jazz, etc. Effectively, there’s no reason to say that just because Blues is from Chicago and it depends on different instruments/keys, it’s a different genre. I’ve always looked at Blues as one of the many genres of jazz. TL;DR, Swing came from NYC, Dixieland came from New Orleans, Blues came from Chicago, and all of these are different kinds of jazz.

blues always feels like if rock music was jazz to me. also they tend to like flickering their keys (like between 2 keys) giving it that gliding pitch flickering sound (for pianos), whereas guitars can naturally glide between pitches. Blues also seem to like accidentals too much, giving it kind of a "lazy-to-stay-on-key" vibe. Just a casual listener of both though

There should be a way to describe the difference without an instrument. For instance, blues has few chords. Or the structural format. I can only listen to blues for 20 mins because it all starts to sound the same. Whereas in jazz one sound can take 20 mins. Can anyone expand on that. Thank you respectfully.

(Jam session VS Gig session) The blues expresses fatigue, pain, the march of time is reversed, getting up is difficult, the note falls on time, while jazz is westernized, optimistic.. In addition : Nothink explained by guitar, explore 60' blues, Fat Domino by exemple...

The blues is not the twelve-bar frame. There can be blues in frames of 4, 6, 7, 8, or many bars as they are. It can even have time signature changes or simply dont have time signature or frame. I think what you are talking about is the most frequent way of playing electric blues of second half of XX century, which even that itself is not conditioned to all those conventions.

Sounds like your dad was a cool guy. I have known great players that could play jazz, but made successful careers in the blues genre. And many blues musicians who are incredibly talented who love jazz, and will jam with jazzers, but are not interested in the jazz scene. It's a personal choice. A very good friend -bass player- does both very well and lives in both worlds and is deeply satisfied by both types of gigs and audiences. However his blues audiences are way more fun.

@Jazzmentl
@Jazzmentl 2 года назад
@@Ignasimp I thought so, so here's what I think based on my experience. The reason why most musicians hate singers is because most singers, not all, have little to no knowledge of the intricacies of jazz harmony, rhythm, soloing, and they generally do not understand musician etiquette. Couple this with the fact that singers are generally fronting the band. So not only are they calling all the shots, and the tunes, to the audience it seems like they're the star and many musicians resent this fact. Now of course I'm speaking in generalities. I've worked with a few singers over the years who seem to know their stuff but the vast majority show up unprepared and unwilling to learn and understand what most seasoned musicians go through when honing their craft over many years. Singers tend to rely on Raw talent, talent is only a small fraction of the equation when you're talking about real musicians. When many people say that I'm very talented, they often think that it's natural ability, when in actual fact it's many many years of study, practice and generally hard work. The fact that most singers are not willing to go through this process creates a divide between those that are serious about their craft and those that are just dabbling. The exceptions to this rule are rare musician singers such as Diana Krall and Nina Simone. I personally have spent many hours over the years creating charts for singers, coaching them on pitch and style etc. I do not mind doing this if the singer is open to it. And when that happens it makes it a much more enjoyable experience. Does that answer your question?
@Ignasimp
@Ignasimp 2 года назад
@@Jazzmentl yes, thank you. As a singer I find many barriers. I'm always discouraged to study jazz as a singer. And many jazz singers I've heard not only are terrible in the musical sense they have zero voice development. Every time I tried to find someone that teaches me how to learn about jazz harmony they always try to make me read classical songs. It's like singing is always directed to classical. I love some classical music. But I am mostly a contemporary singer (though I'm developing an old school type of singing.) They always tell me with natural talent I wouldn't go anywere and that jazz harmonies are too difficult for me. Which I find riddiculous. I already I'm able to imrpovise in gospel, blues and arabic styles, learning on my own, whithout having that much theoretical training. It took me 10 years to find an actually great singing teacher. Now I'm trying to find a great theory teacher. I guess I'll have to study an istrument so I can actually learn the theory, and then apply it to the voice.

Blues is 2 pegs down and Jazz is more than 4 pegs down.

I see literally none of the notes you played on the sheet music... so what was the point of showing it..?

You are correct. They are just chord symbols. I'm improvising over chord symbols. It's the chord changes that matter when explaining the difference between jazz and blues. If you want a "blues" tutorial, maybe this one will work for you? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wFWAbyPd85w.html

personally, i cant take blues for more than a few minutes, as it sounds really cheezy and limited. very static, no dynamic harmonics. jazz is just so much better than blues, blues is just barebones jazz, a pixelated image of jazz. personal opinion

I like more blues, jazz is too edgy for me as music.

I get that. Have you listened to some Ray Charles? If you like blues, you would likely find some jazz you'd enjoy.

Okay. 450 videos produced, hundreds of thousands of views, thousands of comments and you are the first to suggest I talk too much. 🤷‍♂️ Can't please everyone 😁

@@Jazzmentl Master, the next videos are very good, congratulation! In this first video you talk about jazz vs blues, like in a pub. But a saw other videos and there you are very effective: I can make notice, I understand everything, etc. Thanks, I learned a lot from you. Hugs from Hungary, Barna.
