Thank you,Jazz Brother Tom. 🌹⭐🌹
Love your way of presenting music and the attitude behind ❤️
Excellent , l understand , better after watching that showing .
Good vocal chops too! Appreciate your teaching. making progress from theory to what they sound like in real life.
Thanks one million times
This opened a door for me ❤
That's great to hear!
So glad the notation is included because I always thought C7 meant c major 7th
Well done. Something to use and practice Daily. The 4,3,2,1 walk down at the end of the lesson reminds me of an old song that I can't figure out. It is going to drive me mad until I do. Thanks for the lesson Tom.
Many songs use this progression, but this one comes to mind, may it be the one you are thinking of "Loving You" czcams.com/video/9I3UTG1dSTc/video.html
Amazing. That was the song. LOL That is all I thought about was a high pitched voice singing. You Nailed It. Now I can sleep tonight. Thanks.
@@billhasty5197 it was a stab in the dark, but we guessed it!!!
Great teacher always
Hi Tom. For some reason I hadn’t been picking up your wonderful youtube lessons! So good to hear all about 7ths!!! I’ve been changing jobs and handling all sorts of health stuff for me and my wonderful Boxer dog Henry. However, i have managed to get my Kawai electric piano set up in my new ‘sandpit’ so I can go and just switch out of law and PLAY in my musical sandpit !!!!! Next step is getting onto your website to accept with thanks all the cheat sheets you’ve prepared to help me learn and have fun!!!!! Thank you! What you and your colleagues are doing at the London School of Contemporary Piano is fabulous!!!!!!!!! Darcey
Please pass along my greetings to Henry.
A very inspiring and valuable lesson. Thankyou!
Thank you for helping !
to dissolve the ambiguity I used those chords unconsciously.
Thank you Tom. Clear and clean explanation of the 7Th. Chords. As always a positive and inspiring class. By the way, love the new cool blue shades 😉☺️ Happy you enjoyed Billy Joel concert with your family! We were blessed to see, many years ago, Billy Joel and Elton John together. Such a great memory!
Yes! I saw Billy and Elton together in Australia at Sydney Cricket Ground 1999. A piece of history!!! What a tour that was.
I would like you to show how you do that run up the keys so effortlessly
3 Main Pillars: Learn your chords (can't run without knowing them first) 2. Learn patterns and grooves. 3. Put them into an improvisation. All of the videos on this channel can be categorized into one of these three pilars. (except a few advanced ones that cover the 4th Pillar)
Bluesy and Schmoozy. Great description. I'm glad you talked inversions.
I have been concentrating on triads for a while since I was lacking basic triad mastery, but now I'm doing cadences and even Bach is using 7ths. He used mostly V7 in various inversions, but also ii7, vii°7 but also IVMaj7.
I often think of my days as Bluesy or Schmozy. And hopefully not too diminished....
@@contemporaryschoolofpiano 😂 I can relate
Very nice and special lesson! You rock!
Brilliant teacher. Makes everthing so simple
Amazing Tom! You make it look so easy!! I wish I had your talent!
Very interesting and useful video, thanks Tom
Excellent explanation of the three types of 7th chords. This is not the just one time listening. I am going back time and time again until I get it easily.
Very impressive
Such an enjoyable video Thank you Tom!
Glad you enjoyed it
Enlightening and inspiring....Thank you so much, Christopher.
I likely won’t forget the impact of my CZcams visit today. Thanks to this channel. Specifically. I was brought back to a day-now many years ago-when the desire to play an instrument that has been in my home since childhood was born. I did something, it sounded pretty good, and I said to myself then, “When I learn how to do that (what I had just done), with understanding, I’m going to be pretty good at this thing!”
There have been all kinds of obstacles since, but my passion for want to learn piano has not waned. I actually made progress on that beginning tune not long ago, developed it a bit, but used it as a sort of confirmation (an indicator) to keep going. I have, and today it can be heard in this video. Wow. A special thanks to the Lady in Green (in another video of this channel); it was her playing that first caught my eye.
Many thanks, I'm glad the videos have been helpful!!
Really loving this lesson, great teaching. I'll check out the handout
great video, thank you! i like the way you teach music. thanks to your videos i am constantly progressing. very inspiring😁
Schmoozy, bluesy, optimistically melancholy. This is a super helpful description of 7ths! Great tutorial. 🙂
Great lesson! It really helped me to hear the examples in the songs from the Beatles and Alicia Keys. Thank you Tom
I love your totally random playing. Totally I can tell that is a master playing!
Excellent thanks.
Okay. So the dominant seventh is not raised a semi tone in an augemented seventh chord unlike in the diminshed seventh?
so why do we use the word dominant at all
