How We Play Out

Can someone cut together all of Adam's "AAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL your jazz needs". They get me everytime

OMG these Peter's takes starting at around 40min are on a different level!

This is essential and profound to what jazz is to me. As a semipro bassist I'd have needed just all this condensed info 35 years ago ;)

This intro!!! Y’all… 🙏 🔥 😮

This is an awesome lesson! I'm currently trying to improve on my playing out techniques, and you both gave me so much valuable studying material that I can use while obviously sitting at the keyboard, and even when I'm away from the board training my ear and brain. Thankyou so much!

Really great to hear more advanced topics from you two and getting into each others' heads about what you're hearing, playing and thinking. Loving the long format. Now i want to try and play along with this whole thing!

You both sound so good in this. Great job guys.

I could listen to this for 24 hours straight!! LOVE YALL! Amazing talent, you 2 are such a gift to jazz improv. Rhythm is so important to melody, for sure!! Great discussions you 2 have. Thank you!!

I just finished this episode, but it will never be finished. I’m gonna have to watch it in small chunks while playing/practicing over sooooo many months Because soooo much valuable information. Dense…with info. Therefore, gotta stretch it out like saltwater taffy, freeze it, then smash it into tiny bits in order to digest it. Thank you and woooooow… 😮

Just got up to the rhythm part of the video--YEAH! Hopefully my voicemail on rhythmic study and misconception lands right with you two. The more we explicitly talk about rhythm, the more we challenge "big harma" and jazz pedagogy. Rhythm, pulse, and the language of the drum. As Peter once said "you can't decouple the melodic from the rhythmic." That said, putting a magnifying glass onto the rhythmic component makes everything more precise and GROOVING. As I mentioned in my voicemail, too many folks sleep on Charlie Parker's RHYHTMIC genius because his melodic concept was so complex. You don't need odd time signatures to sound rhythmically complex--that's also in the speak pipe ;) P.S. Damn, Peter talking about Strand Books is like insider baseball for us New Yorkers... man I miss that sacred place!

I'm used to playing stuff slow when i practice. but outside playing sounds cool only when u play fast and rhythmically strong. that makes it harder to practice and chromatic transposing is still hard for me. maybe i‘m not alone here. a pdf with some licks would be great. as always: great job and thanks 🙏🙏

peter is like a grand master and adam is so loveable

For the full hour!

17:40 that exercise sounds like it'll be very fruitful. I'll try it out, thank you!

wow Adam & Peter - so inspired & inspiring!

OMG! This is a super class, level after level you guys are awesome! I have a lot to study and practice!!! Excelente!!! Amigos!!!

You guys are the absolute best

Yea I think the long form is the way to go. Love this.

I'm a subscriber and watch many posts of yours. This one is particularly exquisite ! Absolutely fascinating.

As always great stuff. I like the very down to earth approach to this rather radical subject of music. When I started out, these topics seemed like something for the few chosen ones;o) Its nice to hear you talk about, and demonstrate this in a manner so that any mortal person can understand;o) I have spend my teaching life trying to make the hard stuff simple (and the simple stuff hard;o) Thanks from Denmark.
