Once you understand this chord structure, your piano playing will never be the same. It's used commonly in both Jazz and Neo Soul, but you'll really hear it used in an absolutely gorgeous way in modern Neo Soul-Inspired tracks that cross genres as well. A really important part of this sound is the dim(maj7) chord, i.e. a diminished triad with a major 7. The structure comes down to being built like a block chord, but with a major 7 instead of a 6. Use this over any melody or chord progression for a modern sound. Enjoy this jazz and Neo Soul piano tutorial with Noah Kellman.

You do the best job on KZread on chord voicing. This and your neo soul series for example. Thank you, this is my favorite part of playing piano. They are also great for composing, as I like to play around using them for my amateur film score composing.
Merci ! Très bien fait !🥸
Now I realize why I like so much Lyle Mays playing. He used to apply this kind of open cords a lot (R.I.P)
Amazing lesson
Appreciate you, Noah
I like that chord that is built up in fifths, LH and RH set apart by a second: C,G,D,E,B,F#. It's a cousin of the m11 chord of similar structure: C,G,D,Eb,Bb,F. Very good lesson, BTW!
Perfect!
Thank you 🙏🏻 Wonderful class
Great lesson! Thank you!👏🏼👏🏼
Some beautiful sounding voicings!
Fantastic stuff!! All for free. Thanks Noah
Thank you a lot! 🙏🏽
Great video!
Sweet piano lesson
excellent thx Noah :)
Brilliant, thx . Finally a simple and crystal clear explanation here 😊
Having just starting really improvising piano I’m happy to know I was getting these solo voicings down before I saw your vid and it makes me even happier to have to ability to learn more I find learning jazz piano to be so calming and these videos add to that so thank you 🙏

thanks a lot!
This is a PERFECT, MUSIC THEORY and MUSIC PRODUCTION video! Your demonstration of the chords quickly provided a memorable method of remembering the structure of chords period and allows the composer the flexibility of discovering other chord structures without ANY previous knowledge of them! As a music theory educator myself, thanks for creating a great video worthy of being shared without having to reinvent the wheel! I heard of many of the chords before, but now looking to use a specific chord type won’t be as necessary as knowing how to find the most pleasing chord within any given scenario! Thanks again and congratulations! 🎉😎⛽️🌋💎🧨☀️🏆🎯✈️

Thank you sir. I have heard about these concepts but it's alot easier seeing you at the keyboard using C Maj
Hella informative as Always
I don't play piano but understand a tiny bit about music theory and thankfully you used the C Maj scale and for the first time it was really easy to follow and understand what someone meant by saying thi g like "the 9th" and so on. Thanks for the video

Thought I'd add, there is one other voicing that is really easy to remember and move around. Try 1-7-1-3-5. LH 1-7. RH 1-3-5. Drop the 7 to a b7 and the 3 to b3 and you now have a min7. Very simple to remember as well.

Nice yeah I dig the little cluster between 1 and 7
That was a very professional chord!
I like"The First Noel" around 10:50 :) thx this vid is just what I'm needing rt now!
The #11 (F#) is from the C Lydian scale. In jazz when you see a Major7 chord it often implies the C Lydian scale
Great video! Can you please make one this this for all chord types?
Noah, your vids are always informative. Thanks for posting! How did you go about getting all two-handed rootless voicings "under your fingers" so they were second nature? Did you do any particular drills or did you just plunk down each isolated chord voicing and memorize it? Because, as you know, smooth comping relies on the relation of one voicing to every other voicing. So, sometimes I'll have a nice voicing for one chord and then have to think a bit of how to move to the next chord smoothly and effortlessly. For some reason, it takes me longer to see something like a B9#11 than, say, a G9#11. I know that for many musicians, some keys are harder than others. Did you ever have any particular difficulty voicing in different keys?
The beginning is hilarious 😆, and the content was great 👍🏾
Hi Kellman, I’ve found that in your playlist of “music production” there is an unrelated video about a car, probably by mistake. I hope you check it out. Anyway, thank you for making good lessons!
Thank you for the informative video, Noah! I If I were to voice the guide tones in the left hand (ie. a 65 - 42 bass pattern) what extensions would you voice in the right hand?
When you play a Cmaj7#5 what scale would you use for the right hand?
Thanks for explaining this - I always wondered why things were spelled different ways - like b5 versus #11...so, I know there is "quartal" and "quintal" harmony...I get that. Even though fourths can be thought of as just inversions as the same notes in fifths ...so, why can't I find any info on sextile harmony, which are of course just thirds in different inversions? If there is some better term I should search under please let me know - I really like the mysterious ambiguous quality of sixths.
This is important to comprehension.
Is your piano tuned to pythagorean tuning? It sounds beatiful!
to what standard is your piano tuned?
A really good treatment, I still have the question of how to organise and muscle memory these complex chords into my instant 'bag'? Any help would be appreciated.

Hey Steve- yes search Noah Kellman master a voicing in all keys or voicing mastery I think you should find some useful videos
Would be nice to get these beautiful voicings on a pdf
Thank you so much… v interesting… sorry to ask a dumb question… what about the melody? If we have to use a finger for the melody, what should we do to include the chord voicing? It’s kinda tough to use all 5 fingers on the RH so something simplified would be great but how pls? Thx so much again😊

The Problem i always have is, that these kind of Tutorials always use heavy modified samples of Piano. When you try it yourself on your real piano, it sound way less coll, unless you sit in an empty cathedral^^
Now... Transpose 🥲
some voicings here are dependent on larger hands.

That’s okay- you can just “roll” it, or jump your hand a bit. I do that too!
I think that you're missing the point because the video doesn't explain how to create a consistent voicing along a whole predictions I think overall you're running like a headless chicken
