    Peter demonstrates how to play outside of a chord while in a different chord... but still be in that chord... It sounds like magic...
    transcription: gum.co/ellPO (by Lukas Pfeil)
    ===================================================
    What's going on, everybody? Peter Martin here, for Two Minute Jazz Piano. I wanna talk to you today about playing outside.
    So, (jazz piano) normally when we talk about playing outside, we just mean shifting harmonically from what the actual chord we're
    on for a little bit of time when we're not supposed to be changing the chord. But we use that other harmonic area to build our melodic ideas off of.
    If we look at D Minor, (jazz piano) we're just, you know, we're
    kinda sitting there, right? (jazz piano)
    It's kinda obvious at a certain point, I'm leaving D Minor. Now, you know, Dorian, it's all white keys so you can tell when I'm
    doing it visually, too, 'cause I'm going up to non-white keys, but the sorta obvious place that we go is a half step up, which works nice (jazz piano) so we can kinda shift up there at any time.
    But I want you to think about some other areas to go outside, as well. (jazz piano) And these are, they can really be almost anywhere. We're thinking more in terms of triadic pattern. So D Minor but I'm going up to (jazz piano). E, E Triad.
    And then E flat, major triad.
    And even D triad, even though we're going to D Minor.
    Then I'm going to B triad.
    And you hear I'm doing, as opposed to a straight triad, (jazz piano) 'cause it gets a little bit basic, I'm adding in that fourth kind
    of as a melodic passing note.
    (jazz piano) right? (jazz piano)
    You know, you do that if you like the sound. (jazz piano)
    And then, you know, in terms of your comping, you probably notice sometimes I'm really sticking straight with what I'm doing melodically with my comping. (jazz piano)
    But these voicings are actually, those are a fourth, but, you can also play things that move in the same direction with the pattern that you're doing when you're playing outside.
    (jazz piano) that are not actually the chords for what you're playing.
    What I did there was (jazz piano), that kinda matches but
    then I went (jazz piano).
    I'm still doing the major, (jazz piano) moving chromatically but I'm
    taking that fourth voicing and moving it chromatically, as well.
    (jazz piano)
    And the whole thing, remember playing outside, you're shifting, you're going somewhere else and then you're coming back. You can't play on the chord and then leave the chord and stay away because then you're outside forever.
    You gotta bring it back home at some point. Happy practicing.

    Peter that’s literally mind blowing. For a long period of time I was trying to understand how to shred over these pentatonic scales and sound more professional and now it’s done! Cause many different modern jazz pianists such as McCoy Tyner, Kenny Kirkland and many others use it a lot. So thank you!

    Thank you. When I hear 'outside' & get away with playing a few bars of it, I always think it's a fluke. You have explained why it works. It's good for confidence to know that there's some theory behind it & we trust our ears.
    Now there's even more stuff to practice. Your videos help a lot of players. Thanks again.

    Hi Peter
    I really love your playing and instruction. Wow!
    Could you do some outside examples (like in this video) but keep the comping extremely simple? For example, stick to just one chord or inversions of it. It would really help me in getting the sound in my mind’s ear.

    Hello Peter and (Adam) I love your show Peter I’ve learned so much from you you have turned my playing around so much I want to travel to Open Studio ( I’m in California unfortunetly) your show is the best thing onYou Tube period.I hope you read this I know you Are very busy! You have inspirer me out of my skull I’ve replayed your videos hundrede of times- I have a question: on the playing outside you have inspirer me to create something on my ovn: going up to the Ab min. 11- I play a Bb 13 and go down chromatically: Bb13 A13,Ab13,G13 etc. and on the right hand I play F,EC,G( 5,b5,9and 13 for the Bb- then for theA13 the same going down: so I hit the 5 the b5 , 9 and 13 of every chord- you have inspirered me to do this because your teaching is so awesome! I. Want to order some materials ( my daughters going to for my birthday!) I hope you Antwerpen me back- I know your’re busy- thanks for your show it’s amazing,! William Le Us the loneliest musician in the world,

    Really any scale that contains D including melodicminor scales that include D also there is no reason to limit yourself to pentatonic shapes. Like try superimposing D-7, F7+11,D7+11,Bbmaj7+5,Abmaj7+5,Dalt7,D-7 all over a D pedal. Play it inside with chords.

    I like that he ended with “You gotta bring it back home at some point,” because I agree with him! When guys just zoom into the stratosphere and there’s no harmonic context any more, it feels too much like that old quote (from Stravinsky?) about “playing tennis without a net.” It kinda feels pointless. Even some of MIles Davis’ music with his second great quintet (Wayne, Herbie, Tony, Ron) felt that way to me. On one level, some amazing playing was going on, but when it’s just “rhythm-no changes”, then I kind of lose interest after a while. I actually liked his 70s electric stuff better, because a lot of times there was a very basic thing going on-like a one-chord vamp-so that no matter how far out the playing got, you knew where “home” was. I dunno, anybody feel me on this?
