‘If you can’t reach it you can roll it…I think I heard that in a circle somewhere.’ 😂😂😂
I've been some sort of keyboardist for so long, without ever really learning or practicing the basics. Well, now seems to be a great time to do it - better late than never I guess... it's fun, too!
The recurrent and almost hypnotic bass figure of "Tears of a Clown" has the accents falling on an ascending ladder of fourths
A Child is Born would be a great GPS that ties many other sessions together.
I was just listening to the koln concert before watching this video and realized that Keith Jarrett uses those plagal breaths a lot especially in his ostinatos but it never seems overused
Thanks so much for doing these sessions. I also really appreciate your and “Paul Schaffer’s reparte. ”
It must feel great to have the audience from around the world
Let’s. Do. The time. Warp. Again!
Hi Adam, one thing I noticed awhile back, was that if you started with a tone low on the piano and ascended by perfect 4ths, you'd eventual play the starting tone, only 5 octaves higher. So theoretically, one could play any note during an improvised solo, and have it relate to the parent tonality. This is especially interesting in Modern Chamber Music, where there are multiple intertwining voices, sorta like in a Bach 3-part invention. With ears hearing that are based on older harmonic traditions, motifs could and would sound rather dissonant, but with ears that understand how seemingly dissonant 4ths can be harmonically related, it takes on a different perspective.
Furthermore I recently noticed that when you travel up or down in successive 4ths as you describe, the black notes all come in a bunch and then all the white notes (or vice versa) with the interface being F to Bb and B to Gb: there's no mixing. Much the same happens with fifths, of which fourths are of course the inversion, and this is how key signatures work.
"Its too good..." Robert Glasper build a career on stuff like that :) Is the minor 11 chord with the 4 in the lead voice the sound of the 2020th maybe?
I call the major "here comes the sun cadence"
Good lesson!
Brooklyn 1942 now Woodstock love practicing going on 7 decades sax player but piano for years now as well
Miles Davis -So what. A great example of quartal jazz

Did anybody notice that a lot of the 4ths are actually 5ths? C to G etc.? A flat to E flat?
Its a 4 to 1 movement as opposed to 5 to 1 movement
C to G is both a 4th (if the C is above the G) and a 5th (if not).
Obviously it is the same for any 4th or 5th; They are inversions of each other
