These may be some of the reasons why you were drawn to study jazz piano. For other aspiring students, their journey began when they were arrested by a particular jazz pianist’s sound—Red Garland, Bud Powell, Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Thelonious Monk, Keith Jarrett…the list goes on. While these players are all unique, they each developed a highly-refined jazz piano skillset that enabled them to express themselves freely. But how does one develop such a powerful command of essential jazz piano skills? Not without a plan, that’s for sure. This lesson will help you build a balanced practice routine that focuses on the simultaneous development of 5 key pillars of jazz piano proficiency including technique, harmony, scales, lead sheets and improv. ► Diatonic 7th Chords course: pianowithjonny.com/courses/diatonic-7th-chords-exercises ► Chord Shells Exercises: pianowithjonny.com/courses/chord-shell-guide-tone-exercises ► Play Lead Sheets with 7th Chords: pianowithjonny.com/courses/play-piano-lead-sheets-with-7th-chords ► Play Lead Sheets with Chord Shells: pianowithjonny.com/courses/play-piano-lead-sheets-with-shells-guide-tones ► Fly Me to the Moon course: pianowithjonny.com/courses/fly-me-to-the-moon-1 ► Autumn Leaves course: pianowithjonny.com/courses/autumn-leaves-jazz-swing-1 ► How to Improvise with the Lydian Mode: pianowithjonny.com/courses/how-to-improvise-a-solo-with-the-lydian-mode-1 ► How to Improvise with the Mixolydian Mode: pianowithjonny.com/courses/how-to-improvise-a-solo-with-the-mixolydian-mode-1 ► How to Improvise with the Dorian Mode: pianowithjonny.com/courses/how-to-improvise-a-solo-with-the-dorian-mode-1 ► How to Improvise with the Aeolian Mode: pianowithjonny.com/courses/how-to-improvise-a-solo-with-the-aeolian-mode-1 Chapters: 00:00 - Intro 00:43 - 5 Pillars 01:04 - 1.
