Learn how to improvise on piano with just two notes and two chords: D minor and A7, with the pillar notes D and A, from your first whole note to enclosures, trills and triplets. Beginner to intermediate, with Jason Zac. Pick two chords, D minor and A7, and keep them pumping in the left hand. Then take just two notes, D and A, and let them be the pillars your melody always comes back to. That is the whole idea: land on a pillar, and everything you play around it sounds like it belongs. We build it one level at a time. Level 0 is the pillar notes in whole notes, half notes and off the beat. Then one note below (the leading tone), one down and one up, trills (including a more Indian trill), repeated cells and swing triplets, runs that connect the two pillars, and finally enclosures. Near the end there is a taste of a blues minor colour over the same two chords, and a way to practise it so you can compose your own little pieces. Play along with the chapters below, pause the video, and try each level before moving on. The same plan works in any minor key once you move the two pillars. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons 🎹 Simple but Effective Piano Improvisation Using Chord Tones as Pillars ➡️ https://youtu.be/xEqm46HKrBw 🎼 Compose & Improvise Better Melodies Using Scale & Chord Tones (Piano) ➡️ https://youtu.be/h2K0ZqkZViw 🎵 5 Things You Didn't Know About the Harmonic Minor Scale (Piano Theory) ➡️ https://youtu.be/i7dU99lBWAk ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com ============================= 00:00 - The two-chord performance 01:06 - The left hand: D minor and A7 03:09 - Level 0: the pillar notes D and A 05:03 - Level 1: one below 07:14 - Level 2: one down, one up 08:09 - Level 3: trills 09:31 - Level 4: repeat it, then triplets 10:28 - Level 5: connect the pillars 12:30 - Level 6: enclosures 13:14 - More notes, and a blues minor colour 14:52 - Putting it all together 16:20 - How to practise this ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Lessons ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #PianoImprovisation
The hexatonic scale is the six-note scale between the pentatonic and the seven-note scales you already know — catchy like a pentatonic, with the flavour of a full scale. Piano lesson with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music. Three ways to make six notes: take a seven-note scale and leave one note out (G major without F♯), add one note to a pentatonic (the minor and major blues scales), or put two triads together that share no note (G major + A minor — the "Sunday scale", a name made popular by pianist Peter Martin). Then play the pairs, in G: G + A minor, A♭ + B♭ minor, G + A (Lydian, no 7), G + F (Mixolydian, no 6), G + F minor and G + A♭ (Phrygian dominant colours), G + E♭ minor (the augmented scale), G + D♭ (a tritone apart — the Petrushka scale), and the minor-home pairs: G minor with A minor, F minor, A♭, F♯ minor and B. Last, the three families: triad pairs, symmetrical scales (whole tone, augmented, Petrushka) and culture scales (the blues scales, and six-note ragas like Marwa, Puriya and Sriranjani). The flavour is in the missing note. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 📹 Everything for Life Bundle ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ▶️ Related lessons & playlists Piano Workout: 2 Chords, All Inversions & Modal Hexatonic Scales ➡️ https://youtu.be/qakASBgKQ9U Piano Improvisation: 3 Ways to Use the Pentatonic Scale ➡️ https://youtu.be/p2JYPEZ7nLU How to Write a Melody on Piano Using the Pentatonic Scales ➡️ https://youtu.be/hE3I3I6bIpk Blues Scale Piano Workout: Major & Minor Blues Scales ➡️ https://youtu.be/p46g4HXjtj0 Whole Tone Scale Exercise ➡️ https://youtu.be/ljflwFHZSQM Subset Scales on Piano: Carnatic Raga Colours From Pentatonics ➡️ https://youtu.be/-ExjS5-fKog Piano Scales (playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9qErCYaKIjOhKDf2j8Q0uH Creative Scale Practice (playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT-p0MXCH5MeTmklqTeygKP2 🎓 https://nathanielschool.com 📚 Free tutorials library — search "scales" ➡️ https://free-music-lessons.nathanielschool.com ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 - Intro 01:08 - Why six notes 06:48 - Three ways to make six 09:58 - The Sunday scale (G + A minor) 11:04 - A♭ + B♭ minor 12:17 - Lydian, Mixolydian and Spanish pairs 15:24 - Augmented and Petrushka pairs 16:58 - Minor-home pairs 19:16 - The three families 19:40 - Symmetrical scales 21:56 - Culture scales 23:08 - Wrap-up 💰 PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 💬 WhatsApp ➡️ +91 77604 56847 ✉️ music@nathanielschool.com #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #HexatonicScale
Learn how to play blues piano with just two notes in your right hand — shell voicings, the Charleston rhythm and both blues scales over a 12-bar blues in E, with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music. 🎹 A dominant seventh chord has four notes, and you only need two of them. Keep the third and the flat seventh — the two notes that make it a dominant — and throw the root and the fifth away. Your left hand covers the root anyway, and as Jason puts it, the fifth "isn't adding that much unique harmonic flavour" in the right hand, so give it to the left and it widens the whole thing out. That pair is a shell voicing, and it is what blues and jazz pianists have always actually played. We start on C7 — E and B flat — and then take it to E for the rest of the lesson. E7 is D and G sharp. A7 is C sharp and G. B7 is D sharp and A. Every one of those is a tritone, and here is the part nobody tells you: a tritone is its own inversion. Turn a perfect fourth upside down and you get a fifth; turn a major third upside down and you get a minor sixth; turn a tritone upside down and you get another tritone. That is why 3–♭7 and ♭7–3 are the same shape, and why your hand barely moves all the way round a blues. Then the rhythm. The Charleston is two hits, swung, and there is a displaced version that starts late and lands on the three. Combine them — Jason's own preference is the displaced one first, then the normal one, which is everywhere in rock and roll. Left hand keeps a steady root and fifth underneath. And the gap the Charleston leaves is not empty space: it is where your solo goes. For the solo, two scales, and both are simpler than they sound. The major blues is just the major pentatonic with a flat third added. The minor blues is the minor pentatonic with the blue note. Then three licks: E B D E, the longer B D B B flat A G that fits over B7, A7 and E7 without changing a note, and the A–B flat–B turnaround — the four, the tritone and the five — that sends you round again. Finish with what Jason calls "some masala": slide the whole tritone voicing down chromatically. Do that from B7 and you land on E7, then A7 — because the three chords of an E blues sit on three touching pairs of keys. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 📹 Everything for Life Bundle ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ▶️ RELATED LESSONS One Left Hand Pattern.

Learn blues piano with Jason Zac — one left hand pattern, and both blues scales on top of it, in the key of B♭. The left hand runs a shuffle engine: root with its 5th, then root with its 6th — 1 5 1 6 — struck together, staccato, wrist bouncing like a trampoline. Add the ♭7 and it becomes 5 6 ♭7 6. That engine never stops while the right hand plays the B♭ major blues (1 2 ♭3 3 5 6) and the B♭ minor blues (1 ♭3 4 ♭5 5 ♭7), one octave and then two, in eighth notes and then triplets. Three notes live in both scales — B♭, D♭ and F. That's the door you improvise through. ▶️ Full lesson ➡️ https://youtu.be/p46g4HXjtj0 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 📹 Everything for Life Bundle ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com 🎛️ Free practice tools ➡️ https://apps.nathanielschool.com 🎓 https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All 1000+ lessons ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com 💛 https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 https://instagram.com/jasonzac 💬 +91 77604 56847 · music@nathanielschool.com #PianoLessons #PianoTutorial #MusicTheory #BluesPiano
Learn the blues scale on piano with Jason Zac of Nathaniel School of Music — major and minor blues plus a 12 bar two-hand workout in Bb. Learn the blues scale on piano the practical way — a two-hand workout built entirely around the major blues and minor blues. Both are hexatonic (six-note) scales, and we form them step by step in the key of Bb. We start from the major and natural minor, strip the tritone to get the pentatonic, then add the blue note to make it bluesy. For the major blues you add the flat 3 to the major third; for the minor blues you add the tritone (E) from the root. We cover fingering, why Bb suits blues and horn players, and how to blend both scales for improvisation. The left hand learns the bouncy 1-5-1-6 shuffle engine, its flat-7 variation and how to run it over the 12 bar blues in a loose, staccato swing. We break down wrist and forearm technique so the left hand plays on autopilot. The right hand runs the scales one and two octaves, up and down, in swing and full triplet feels — with accents on the 2 and 4. Great for pianists who know major and minor scales and want to actually sound bluesy for jamming, composing or backing singers. Try it slowly with a shuffle backing track, then tell us in the comments if you'd like more blues lessons.

Learn 5 left hand piano patterns across 5 keys using one harmonic concept — explore rock, blues, and folk grooves with Jason Zac. Ever wondered how one simple harmonic idea can sound like five completely different genres? In this lesson, Jason Zac walks you through five left hand piano patterns across five different keys — each one shifting the entire vibe of your music. We start with a power chord foundation and build outward using 6ths, 7ths, major and minor intervals. Because the third is left undefined, these voicings work in both major and minor contexts — giving you incredible harmonic flexibility for improvisation. You'll explore patterns in E, G#, Ab, F#, B, and A — moving through rock, blues, folk, and even experimental time signatures like 5/8 and 7/8. Each key gets its own rhythmic pattern with carefully placed accents and gaps that change the entire feel of your playing. A highlight of this lesson is Jason's tip on right hand improvisation: sing your melody first, then play it. This unlocks new rhythmic and melodic ideas that your fingers alone might never discover. We also touch on blues scales, Dorian mode, Mixolydian flavour, and how to mix the third for fresh harmonic colour. If you want structured, foundational piano training, check out our courses and apps at Nathaniel School of Music.

Learn piano accompaniment using arpeggios in straight, swing, and triplet time feels. Perfect for backing tracks and band playing. While solo arrangements focus on melody in the right hand with chords in the left, accompaniment puts rhythm and harmony in the right hand with bass notes in the left. This approach gives you more versatility for real-world playing situations. We'll work through straight time, swing feel, and triplet patterns using the same chord progressions in both Bb major (two flats) and D major (two sharps). You'll practice the 1-3-4-5 progression at normal speed and double speed, learning to create smooth voice leading with proper chord inversions. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Performance 00:43 - Introduction & Lesson Overview 🎹 01:04 - Why Learn Piano Accompaniment? 02:03 - Band Settings & Production Work 02:38 - Choir & Group Accompaniment 03:02 - Solo Piano vs Accompaniment Style 03:27 - Bottom-Up vs Top-Down Approach 05:02 - Understanding the 1-3-4-5 Chord Progression 06:04 - Straight Time Feel Explained 06:27 - Dividing Beats by Two: The ‘And’ Subdivisions 07:34 - Arpeggio Basics: High-Low-Middle-Low Pattern 08:02 - Adding Dynamics to Your Arpeggios 08:19 - Left Hand Root Notes & Octaves 08:36 - Left Hand Root Notes & Octaves 09:19 - Melodic Motion in the Treble 09:48 - Contrary Motion 10:36 - Melodic Arpeggios 11:08 - Straight vs Swing Time Comparison 13:27 - Left Hand Variations: Root-Fifth Patterns 14:05 - Swing Time Feel Explained 14:45 - Swing Feel - Normal & Double Speed (8th & 16th Note Swing) 18:12 - Triplet Time Feel Introduction 18:26 - Low-Middle-High Triplet Pattern 18:37 - High-Middle-Low Triplet Pattern 19:38 - Combining Different Time Feels in Songs 20:20 - Practice Tips and Next Steps 21:02 - Beat Division as Compositional Tool ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎵 Music Theory lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/PianoTheory 🎹 All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC 👂 Ear Training lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #PianoAccompaniment #PianoArpeggios #SwingFeel

Walking bass turns your left hand into a groove engine — this jazz piano lesson takes you from the basics to advanced lines. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music teaches walking bass technique while you play melody and chords with your right hand, exploring an original E minor hybrid composition that uses both Dorian and harmonic minor scales. You'll build hand independence, swing feel and chromatic passing tones that connect chord changes smoothly, learning bass lines that can be even catchier than the melody itself. The lesson covers A7, C9 and B7♯9 voicings, ascending and descending bass movement, and when to play with the pulse versus the chord hits without losing the groove. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Performance 00:18 - Introduction & Walking Bass Preview 🎹 00:40 - What Makes Bass Lines Catchy? 00:56 - E Minor Hybrid Scale Explained 02:12 - Jazz Chords Intro 02:43 - Right Hand Melody Pattern 04:56 - Swing Feel vs Straight Time 08:39 - Left Hand Root Notes Only 09:14 - Left Hand Root Notes Only 09:51 - Adding Pulse vs Hit Points 10:30 - Hand Independence Basics 11:19 - Adding Pulse vs Hit Points 12:35 - More than normal Swing 13:51 - First Walking Bass Pattern 14:58 - Chromatic Approach Notes ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎵 Music Theory lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/PianoTheory 🎹 All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC 👂 Ear Training lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #WalkingBass #JazzPiano #HandIndependence
This lesson helps beginners navigate difficult chord progressions and improve piano accompaniment skills using just major and minor thirds. Jason Zac from Nathaniel School of Music shows you how to use just major and minor 3rds in the right hand, floating the left-hand bass with single notes, to build almost every triad, seventh chord and even some complex jazz voicings. By pivoting the thirds against a moving bass, you can voice rich harmony with very little hand movement — making tricky progressions far more manageable. It's a beginner-friendly approach that instantly improves your accompaniment. 🏫 Courses, Workshops or Private lessons ➡️ https://forms.gle/fsbhFKSgJbZ5xZEr8 00:00 - Performance 00:47 - Introduction 03:30 - Build Major 3rd from D 04:29 - Building from D to F♯ 04:53 - Let’s Look at the Chord Tones 06:15 - Changing vibe of D Major 07:15 - Make the Chord Progression Longer 07:56 - Lets look at other Bass Notes 10:55 - Use it in Passing Context 11:38 - ⚠️ Playing Chord which are not part of the D Maj Scale 13:22 - Lets Study the Min 3rd 16:11 - Using the C♯ Scale 16:51 - Conclusion ============================= 📹 Our Video Courses (Everything for Life Bundle) ➡️ https://learn-music.nathanielschool.com/ 🎹 Piano Courses & Private Lessons ➡️ https://piano.nathanielschool.com ============================= ▶️ Related Lessons & Playlists 🎵 Music Theory lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/PianoTheory 🎹 All our lessons on Chord Inversions (Playlist) ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrNNL05e9FT9ygtrGwGFmfyvMyGWH52EC 👂 Ear Training lessons ➡️ https://geni.us/EarTraining ============================= 🎓 Learn Music with Nathaniel School of Music & Jason Zac ➡️ https://nathanielschool.com 📚 All our YouTube lessons (1000+) by skill level, topic & genre ➡️ https://learning-portal.nathanielschool.com ============================= 💰 Donate on PayPal ➡️ https://geni.us/DonatePayPal 📸 Instagram ➡️ https://instagram.com/jasonzac 📞 Call +91 98454 65411 · 💬 WhatsApp chat +91 77604 56847 📧 Customised & Private Classes ➡️ music@nathanielschool.com 🎧 Listen to Jason Zac Music ➡️ https://riffs.jasonzacmusic.com/ #ChordVoicings #PianoChords #PianoAccompaniment
