Wow, I wish they had these videos and transcriptions when I was a kid trying desperately to learn how to play jazz but being so locked into the printed score as a classical music student. Thanks much for this.

@@JJTownley_Classical-Composer you’re just like me! I come from a classical background and have had to find my own ways to branch out. Perhaps for Jazz and Pop the printed score is NOT the heart of the matter. Go forth and shred my friend, I’m sure you have the ear to grab whatever harmony you hear 👂

A sign of good taste! A certain Strat of mine is getting a 78 pickup installed even at this moment…

I will show this to my daughter when she is ready to shred on the piano.

Thank you so much, as a left handed guitar player I always struggled to really transpose those scale runs on keyboard/piano, especially descending ones.

The addition of the thumb kind of upsets our normal guitar patterns, I’m so glad I could help! The revelation for me was that when I play guitar I use 124 and 134 finger patterns almost exclusively, so there had to be a piano equivalent. If you ever need any more clarification please ask I love talking about stuff like this!

​@@abetreblebass hello there again. I've been working on several scales, but one in particular has been giving me trouble. The Eb/D# minor scale has every black key involved and I've been trying to apply the technique logically, but failed so far? What are your thoughts on this? I'm working on a piece that would need such descending patterns in the scale of Eb minor. Once again I'm writing my solos/leads on guitar and try to apply them on to keys. Greetings

I forgot to mention that I had an. Accident a couple of years ago and my right hand pinky is not as flexible as it used to be, but I'm sure there's a way around that. It worked on guitar somehow

@@Metalltool so this is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. I’m actually gonna do a video on the black key scales soon but let me just explain to you in shorthand. In Eb minor there is a group of four notes starting on F and a set of three notes starting on B (Cflat). So the scale starts on the last note of the 3 group. No pinky in this one!

Since I have switched to a ROLI Seaboard as my primary instrument I quickly found it is hard to shred the same way as on guitar. I'm getting better just with time but tips like these are great for me.
