  • “Autumn Leaves” Piano Tutorial
    • “Autumn Leaves” Piano ...
    In this video, Scott The Piano Guy Houston and his guest Bradley Sowash show you how to play “Autumn Leaves” on piano. First they focus on playing the jazz standard as a slow ballad then later in the song they show you how to jazz it up quite a bit. Bradley will even show you some identifiable chord changes used in “Autumn Leaves.”
    In this video Bradley also does a great job of explaining how the circle of fifths and kicks are utilized in this song.
    This song is fun to play because there is a great opportunity to fill up some great musical space with some “noodling” with your right hand. Bradley shows you how to stick to the notes in the scale to noodle around during the break in the melody.
    Bradley will explain the need to wear three hats to play this song well-Chord Guy, Fill Guy and Melody Guy.
    Scott Houston is the host of The Piano Guy television series on PBS and has taught hundreds of thousands of folks like yourself, how to have some fun on their piano or keyboard. He wants to help you too! Bradley Sowash has been a guest on the show on numerous occasions.

    Bradley's playing is excellent in this video. I'm amazed at the 'trash talk' that some indulge in when commenting on others' performance. If you feel competent enough to comment negatively, perhaps you will offer your own performance.

  • @dnvigerjr
    @dnvigerjr Před 10 lety +2

    I think the walking bass left hand sounded good. Yes his timing is a bit square and could have more swing, but that is something you are born with. He has obviously worked hard at becoming a good player. It would be tough getting Bill Evans on since he tragically has passed.

    Interesting basic hints. Perfectly performed by Eugen Cicero (also see his version of "Sunny", strongly recommended!) - Although a lot to learn if you're not Eugen Cicero! - I really like the "Secrets".

  • @LeavesLullaby
    @LeavesLullaby Před 12 lety +1

    The melody gives you some kind of basis. It is the melody which wil be recognized. That's the main tune. Almost all of time the player will begin and end with the melody, players will add some notes and change the rythm but the main melody will almost always be recognized. The part in between the beginning and ending can be full improvisation... The melody gives the player and listner something to hold on too.

  • @Superphilipp

    Think about it. When is the last time you've seen a truly talented, reputable teacher or performer get on CZcams and post criticisms of other musicians? None that I know of.
    The next person who wants to complain about this little lesson, here's a challenge. Please direct us to your website or videos of your performances and tutorials.

  • @nesschallis1909

    Truly great to hear this guy play - but what a shame that this solo was not broken down and explained in much more detail. This would have at least given us mere mortals who walk this earth a better chance of understanding on how this was constructed and so therefore achieved.

    • @pianoinaflash
      @pianoinaflash  Před 8 lety +1

      +Ness Challis Point well taken... We always battle the ticking clock of getting in as much as we can in our 30 minute episodes of the TV series. It's not like a lot of my "just for CZcams or my blog" vids where I have no time constraints. In the Piano Guy PBS series (which this came from) we obviously had a hard wall we came up against in every episode.

    • @gianlucapaul
      @gianlucapaul Před 8 lety

      +Ness Challis I'm guilty of not doing enough of this myself, but the best way to learn is to transcribe it. There are programs out there that help you slow recordings down at pitch to help out in fast passages. Maybe I should be transcribing right now. Well played my own sense of hypocrisy. Well played.

      Assuming you are playing it in the key Bradley is playing it in this video, you can pretty safely play from a Gmin scale through almost the whole tune. Those notes are G-A-Bb-C-D-Eb-F-G. Have fun!

    Sorry that I wasn't clear. Well, in the end we don't know if somebody knows what he is doing. Only if you ask the player you will know. If someone is playing this big ass solo line he can play around chordtones etc. or he can just play the notes that come up in his mind... or just hit random notes... we just don't know for sure without interviewing the person.

    Just curious since I do : )
