Love your teaching style Scott, thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone. I've had a few sax instructors and none have made understanding and learning as easy as you do. It's inspiring!
Yet again a great master class on music theory ,and may I add so helpful,so clear and comprehensible , all put in the correct context Scott .taking away the mystic off chords .that us novices can become so confused about .yes the theory is in all the books 📚,but you make it so much clearer.nice one ☝️
Thanks Paul! I've found that chords are so much easier to understand if you just make one change to get to the next one. So you build off of them. I don't know why most people don't teach it like that.
Yes it is good when someone thinks of us beginners - Its all clear except i was wondering what was meant at 15:14 when Scott says 'i would start with 4 sharps'? where does THAT come from :-o
Hey! Glad I could help. It's not nearly as difficult as it seems when it's broken down into simple steps. Now, being able to play them on command.... that takes some work :-)
In regards to understanding chord qualities I have found that what helped me get it was thinking of the intervals. A major interval is two whole steps. A minor is one and a half steps. I now understand what flatting the third or seventh means but it stumped me at first. I bought myself a keyboard to help figure it all out. I believe all horn players should have one on hand. Thanks for helping me figure this stuff out.
That's definitely the way guitars and keyboard players think of it. Because we can't see our fingers as sax players, we don't think in half and whole steps quite as easily.
@@ScottPaddock I remember my scout master checking out the knot I tied. He said that the knot was right but the way I tied it was unique. Having taught myself, there are a whole lot of things I do differently. When I play my flute I hardly think about what scale/key I'm in. I've played the flute a very long time. That's not to say I played it well for most of the time, as I was totally illiterate musically. I do have a good ear though. I always told myself that one day I'd hunker down and learn something. When I retired I figured it's now or never.
Scott - no matter how many times I read, think about, and listen, to stuff about chords, especially for us “single note at a time” instrument players, your explanation and walk through/build up of chords and their “language” stand out and really do the best job of making chord theory accessible and useful. It still might take me another few reviews, but I “get it” like I never have before and this will soooo inform my practice and scales, long tone, exercises.... keep finding myself THANKING YOU! Great insights and instruction as always... Mark Olson
NEVER seen chords so simply explained for single note instrument! Always got confused whenever a guitar or piano player explained chords. Thanks so much.
Oh thank god I’m trying out for a jazz band tomorrow and I’ve been trying so hard to find a chord introduction for sax improv, I’ve been playing Bari sax for 3 months now and before I was doing regular highschool jazz stuff without having to read chords.
I've had a lot of issues with improv, but love jazz so much. These videos have really given me some groundwork to build stuff up on. Thank you so much, you're a life saver man!!
I'm studying classical music as a saxophonist and I had the chance to learn some jazz before and it was just so overwhelming back then..I never had any real explanation before but this video is brilliant! Thank you for this. Is so clean and clear and easy to understand this way! Thank you!!
Hey Grim! Yeah, jazz and especially improv can be overwhelming if not broken down into small steps. If you want to dive deeper into it, check out my Sax School : www.scottpaddocksaxschool.com
This really summed up what I needed to know. I jumped to another advanced video but it was great that you referred back to this one before I progressed.
yo Scott, thanks so much, retired three years ago and started playing the flute, took lessons and purchased books and dvd's, your demo's and explanations have been the most helpful, keep up the good work
Hi Scott, Finally, someone slowed down and took the time to explain this in an easily understandable manner! Thanks for that, and I'm not kidding! Appreciate your videos, I just recently happened upon them and I'm excited to see more. You are a really great teacher, keep it coming !!
This is a fantastic explanation of the chords for the saxophone. I have been playing saxophone for 12 years and my teacher did not cover chords with me. This came as major flaw in my playing when it came with playing with other people. As once the chord sheet was given to me, I would only play the scale, but not the chords themselves. This video will really help me learn from a beginner perspective and use it when I do jam sessions with other professionals, rather than the solo man in the band that plays random notes in the scale.
Oh man, I'm so lucky to have found you! i was just about to give up on music alltogether because none of it made sense. Your videos make it all so clear and simple. Dude, seriously, you have a gift for teaching music.
Hi dear Scott, As a rookie saxophone player back in China, I've ever searched ANY saxophone lesson all over the internet, your channel on CZcams is THE best i've ever seen. Alway simple, always essential, always understandable and always nice to look at. Hey man, here's a very sincere suggestion. As you konw, that we do not have access to youtube here in China. While we have what, maybe tens of millions of teenagers in China who have potential interest of saxophone, why not you, Scott Paddock, to have and maintain a synchronise channel here in China, say, Bilibili, which is both enlisted in HK and the States. Many well known music players have already done that. That channel, I believe, will definitely promote your passion, your skill and your brand Scott Paddock Saxoschool itself, to all those young guys in China. Nothing more than a personal advice. Think about it, man. At least for me, I won't soo~~bother all the way around to transfer and download your lessons via HK to learn from you. My very best, from Beijing, China
@@ScottPaddock Hey man, what a quick reply here. It seems pretty pretty wired that Bilibili don't have an English version anymore. I've no idea why. As far as I'm concerned, any your student from China or at least who can read Chinese can easily transfer your video from CZcams to Bilibili. Pretty frankly, the first time I've seen a clip, hey man, a clip, of your lesson is from someone who downloaded, tranferred and uploaded that from CZcams, maybe. And that's the very reason I'm committed to go all the way round and learn directly from and write to you finally. Any official, authorized, qualified and up-to-date distribution of your lesson will definitely super-exceed those scattered clips where "subscribe via CZcams" are bannered in videos in Bilibili. Again my best, and I'm sincerely looking forward to having you officially on Bilibili or any platforms in China with authorization.
Hi Scott, thanks for this video and the "how to improvise". I'm a sax player and I've been struggling with chords, learning them through the eyes of a piano or guitar player. This and the improv video with your clear, easy to understand explanation really helped and I expect a leap in my playing. Thanks again
Hello Scott, I'm one of your followers here on CZcams. Can you make a video on how to incorporate these chord structures in to playing solely by ear without any lead sheets? BTW, I think you are a very good teacher, you are easy to follow and the lessons are straight forward. Another video that I would like to see is how to practice major and minor scales rhythmically so as not to sound monotonous. Thank you for the good works.
Brilliant explanation thank you 🙏 I’m increasingly returning to your channel for explaining the stuff I don’t understand that my teacher is trying to teach me. You’ve certainly got talent.
Hi Scott, again very helpful video. Now I'm expecting the next one focusing on how to play these chords respecting the beat of the song. I mean when you read a sheet, you don't have time to think which notes must be played. Simplest way is to play the root, but not enough rich...hopefully you will give us good advices. Cheers!
Hey Patrick, this is definitely a reference video for a future video about soloing over chord changes. I'll do it probably within the next month or so. Thanks for the support!
Great video scott, was going through this with my teacher yesterday and now have a great reference point to fall back on. Simple and easy to remember, thanks.
Thanks Paul! Yeah, I tried to break it down into really simple steps so you could see how each chord was built. Next up is an improv over chords video.
Thanks for making this video Scott, it gives me little idea of what chords all about. But I still don't know the application (i mean how to apply it to improvisation, playing a solo or accompanying a song)
Hey Isaac, that is by far the most confusing part of improvisation! Check out my Sax School. I have an entire course dedicated to improvisation where I teach you how to solo, read chords, use chords & scales in your solos and much more! All step by step and super easy to follow. www.scottpaddocksaxschool.com
Hey Scott, thank you for the video! May you also do a video on the other chords you mentioned? The extensions and altered chords and how to practice those as well? Thanks for your help!!
Thanks! Most teachers don't teach it like this. But I find that if you show how you change one note in a chord it becomes another chord it makes it way easier to see how you get from Major to Dominant to Minor to Diminished. This concept doesn't work as well with kids because of their abilities with logic, but with adults they pick it up really quick.
Thanks for the great tutorial. As per your request for content suggestions: I'm just beginning with music theory and getting into what 2-5-1 and 1-5-4 means. I know their basic construction, but a tutorial on how musicians compose or select among the variety of chords for their songs and how they are related to basic building blocks (e.g. 1-5-4) might be helpful. Basically when you read music and see the variety of chord symbols shown on the measures, how are chords actually selected and sequenced ? What's a typical process ? Do they typically just sound something out on a keyboard and say "Hey those two sound good next to each other." ? Or maybe it's more like baking, where you always start with basics like flour, butter, sugar, etc. (e.g. C major) and go from there ?
Kind of like baking. There are a lot of very common progressions that use one or two special chords to make them stand out. Check out my tutorials on the blues progression and 251s. That should get you started.
Hi Scott, Another great video ! you're a great saxophonist and a great teacher. I like the way that you teach. When you will have a little time, can you make a video about split tones techniques ? Thanks for your great job ! Saxdan
hi i am very glad to learn from you r.i am improving my play on sax tenor.i would be very happy if one day you could teach how to play take 5 on sax tenor with the chords thank you scott .have a nice day
Hey Marday! Thanks!! Take 5 is a great tune. If you listen to the Paul Desmond solo on the original he is using the C blues scale for 100% of the solo. That would be your F blues scale on tenor. The solo section is just the 1-7 and 5-7. So for tenor it is F-7 (F Ab C Eb) to C-7 (C Eb G Bb) so your F blues scale (F Ab Bb B C Eb F) covers every note in both chords except for the G. Hope that helps!

Mark Olson Do watch that video!! I just did, and it helps...dovetails this video perfectly.
I agree. Thanks, Scott !
No one has explained this so simple, thanks!!
Nothing new for me to say that others haven't already said. A clear explanation and a way for me to start practicing. Thank you!
NEVER seen chords so simply explained for single note instrument! Always got confused whenever a guitar or piano player explained chords. Thanks so much.
You are a very good teacher. The first person that I know that can teach to single note player’s
Thanks, yeah, it's a whole different way of looking at it!
You are the most valued Sensei on the www. 🙏🇳🇵❤️
Oh thank god I’m trying out for a jazz band tomorrow and I’ve been trying so hard to find a chord introduction for sax improv, I’ve been playing Bari sax for 3 months now and before I was doing regular highschool jazz stuff without having to read chords.
Thank you for the lesson Mr.Paddock, you explain this topic with much sense and clarity ❤️
Finally, I get it! Thank you Scott. You teach with such clarity.
Thanks Alice!
Man, thank you so much for this. Just getting back into my alto after YEARS of not playing.
I really enjoyed your break down of chords. I now understand how to read a chord chart for sax.
Thanks.
You are the best teacher online...i learned a ton from you Sir.Scott...thank you...keep it up Sir.
Thank you!
I've had a lot of issues with improv, but love jazz so much. These videos have really given me some groundwork to build stuff up on. Thank you so much, you're a life saver man!!

Thanks!
I can't believe that you reply sir. Thanks you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Trombone player. Just discovered this vid. Thanks for the clarity on these. Super helpful.
Thank you so much! I have been struggling with chords and soloing for the past couple of years and you had such a great and clear explanation.
As a beginner trumpet player, this info was hard to find on CZcams. So thanks for sharing!
👍👍👍
Fantastic clear explanation of chords and terminology for someone who's never learned them before - makes perfect sense! Thank you!

Finally, someone slowed down and took the time to explain this in an easily understandable manner! Thanks for that, and I'm not kidding! Appreciate your videos, I just recently happened upon them and I'm excited to see more. You are a really great teacher, keep it coming !!

Scott Thank you for sharing your knowledge this make music learning much more understandable .
I'm going to do another video on chord progressions in the near future that hopefully will clear things up even more.

At last a really clear explanation of how chords are put together, thanks Scott I finally understand!
😁😁😁😁😁
Another excellent tutorial...straight to the point and easy to follow!
Thanks!
I’d love to see a follow up with other chord types.
Hey Kerry, I've got a whole course related to it in my Sax School! Check it out: www.scottpaddocksaxschool.com

Awesome! Yeah, us single note players look at chords very differently. I'll be doing some song specific improv videos in the near future.
dude this is really damn example how simple and good video can done without bullshit. i will follow your content thanks
Thanks Mert! Yeah, a lot of music tutorials go off on tangents and talk about a ton of unrelated stuff. I just tell you the info you clicked for 😁
Great,I love your Videos...This tutorial has shown me what I really need...Thanks

Very clearly explained. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
I had a lesson about this subject recently & i understood nothing but i'm now fully equipped & happy with this short clip.
Hey! Glad you liked it. I've found that breaking it down like this and only changing one note at a time makes the chords way easier to figure out!
Thank you so much & i would like to have your email so that i can send my questions & prepare to have some lessons from you.
Thanks mate,I have been playing sax for years and didn't have a clue about chords.it was just hit and mis now I get it.thanks again.
Nice 1,brother. Am really blessed by your teaching. Keep it up. God bless you
👍👍
Thanks for making this video Scott, it gives me little idea of what chords all about. But I still don't know the application (i mean how to apply it to improvisation, playing a solo or accompanying a song)

Thanks so much Scott I am a sax player myself this was extremely helpful, I really wish I found your channel sooner!
Thanks Byron! My tutorials are fairly new. I'm trying to do 2-3 a week.
Hey Scott, thank you for the video! May you also do a video on the other chords you mentioned? The extensions and altered chords and how to practice those as well? Thanks for your help!!
I did a video on altered chords. Check it out.
Wow that's great I now understand and will works on these in all scales
This is very clearly explained it's a great fundamental tutorial. Thanks Scott!
Thanks! Most teachers don't teach it like this. But I find that if you show how you change one note in a chord it becomes another chord it makes it way easier to see how you get from Major to Dominant to Minor to Diminished. This concept doesn't work as well with kids because of their abilities with logic, but with adults they pick it up really quick.
You're spot on, Scott! It is imprudent to assume you can teach a child music the same way you would teach an adult. It's a BIG mistake!
what a great video. so clear and well put. those stupid sevens have been confusing me for years!
Good lesson on chords, very helpful. It helps me understand chords better.
👍👍👍
Great video! Not too “wordy” and confusing, but definitely spelling everything out
Great and Easy Lessons Thanks
Thanks!
I need this Chords
You are so helpful mate
Good stuff Scott!! Clean cut lesson!!
Love your Teaching Style Your the Best on you tube
Thanks Robert!
Brilliant so clear and easy to grasp thanks so much for this.

thankyou big help!🙏
scott tht was awesome
Hi Scott, Another great video ! you're a great saxophonist and a great teacher.
I like the way that you teach. When you will have a little time, can you make a video
about split tones techniques ?
Thanks for your great job !
Saxdan
Thanks Daniel! Yeah, I'll put that on the list!
Is there sheet music to what you played in the begining? That was amazing
Thanks! That was just chord outlines to the jazz standard All The Things You Are.
Thx great explanation
Love it thank you ! :D I love your sound
thanks for the video.............. i have been having challenges about those stuff.... but yu made it simpler for me.. thanks a bunch
Glad you understand it now. I'm doing one on MODES tomorrow that will accompany this one.
Yeah ThankU!!!
hi i am very glad to learn from you r.i am improving my play on sax tenor.i would be very happy if one day you could teach how to play take 5 on sax tenor with the chords thank you scott .have a nice day
Hey Marday! Thanks!! Take 5 is a great tune. If you listen to the Paul Desmond solo on the original he is using the C blues scale for 100% of the solo. That would be your F blues scale on tenor. The solo section is just the 1-7 and 5-7. So for tenor it is F-7 (F Ab C Eb) to C-7 (C Eb G Bb) so your F blues scale (F Ab Bb B C Eb F) covers every note in both chords except for the G. Hope that helps!
great lesson Scott thanks so much
This is really good
Thanks!
thanks Scott, let me buy you coffee.
Brilliant.. so well explained ✅
Hi Scott, really helpful thanks, complicate topic but you have made it a lot clearer, thank you. Ges
