    Actually Jeremy all sounds very sensible to me, start simple with one enclosure resolving on the chord change and fill in the other beats as you master it. Great idea!

    Once you discover enclosures, it seems like a veil has been lifted, eh? The rhythmic aspect of placement can be a tough nut to crack, once one knows of enclosures, but ever onwards! If I may blather on, I bought the Charlie Parker omnibook maybe 40 years ago (from Jamey), and I noticed that he (Bird) played chromatic notes near chord tones, but I never (until the past 2-3 pandemic years and youtube vids), knew what was going on, even though I also transcribed plenty solos (a prof at Livingston College back in the day liked to say "solas", which I think is "hipper"). I never got the great clue, which is sort of actually delaying resolution, and this sort of delaying behavior can apply to other aspects of life, ya dig? Great video, and thanks for sharing!

    Love the interlocking enclosures idea, best thing about it is that you only need to practice the technique once and it works in all keys. I think this will be my new 'safety net' if I'm finding myself lost in the changes :) Thanks for the quality lesson!

    This sounds much jazzier and is much simpler to grasp than having to memorise a different mode for each chord.

      @@jsw0278 yeah sure. The thing is though if you know the 12 major scales, every mode is derived from those.

    -In the case of the chromatic enclosure & turn (see at 6:45'') I often prefer doing the trill (turn) with whole step above (c# d# c# b c). This may sound a bit "out" (it can be considered as G7alt->C) but I prefer the whole step trill. What's your opinion?

    • @JeremySiskind
      @JeremySiskind  Před rokem

      Nice - good insight! I’m all for it! It’s fun to practice the “turns” (or “trills” as you say) on both half steps and whole steps. You can get some really funny combinations sometimes, but I think they are cool ways to ornament the chord (and you’re right about the implied G7 for the one above the root)

      A lot of this is! There’s no single section on enclosures, but a lot of this stuff comes up in other places in the book, particularly in Jazz Piano Fundamentals, Book 2.
