Chords for 🎹 JAZZ/GOSPEL PIANO SOLOING 101 - Beginners tips for getting started playing solos

Hello, this is C Dub with PianoClubHouse.com and today I'm going to give you a very basic tutorial on
_ soloing techniques
You know kind of what you should think while you're soloing or how to get into soloing
so _ I think
One of the first thing I think about when I think okay.
I got a solo coming up is
_ I think about the chords that I'm playing and the scale that goes with the chord so if I
Start like I have a chord in C
I'm playing a C minor 9 okay _
[Cm] _ There's a [Cm] scale that goes with that chord and it's a C minor scale
[C] _ _ [Gm] _ Okay, [Cm] so if I'm playing that chord in the music then I know
That I can hit any note in the C minor scale and it'll fit with [Eb] that chord so You know _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Gm] _ Each note sounds like it fits with the chord.
If I were to play a note outside of the chord _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ See how you can tell the notes that stick out [E] because
You know they don't go with the [N] chord now saying that you can't play those notes
But when you do it, it's kind of like a quick thing you have to do
It's like moving up to a note or moving down to a note so so if I'm playing you know from C minor [Cm] 9
_ _ [Fm] _ To F minor 9 all right
[C] That actual that C minor [Ab] scale will have to go with this chord too, _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ okay, so
If I'm playing a groove
from here
To here, then I know all I really have to [Bbm] do in my solo
_ [Ebm] Play the C minor scale
[Gm] _ _ _
Because I'll show you [C] it's probably easier than telling you so I'll show you what I'm talking about all right got a [Ab] little groove here
_ [Eb] I'm gonna show you
_ That's a whole groove
Going _ [C] from the C minor 9
[Fm] _ _
_ To the F minor 9
That's a whole [Cm] groove _
_ _ All I'm gonna do is play notes in the C [Fm] minor scale _
[Cm] All right, you ready?
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [G] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
C [G] minor scale
[Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Gm] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
And it don't just have to be one note.
You know you can do two notes
_ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Eb] _ _ _ [F] _
[Eb] All right, see I added [Fm] a note that was outside of the scale right [G] there _ _
Right there, [C] but I did it quick
[Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
How about I end?
All _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Gm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ right, so I just did a whole solo off of two chords with one scale, okay, and the great thing about it is
There are other scales you can use so that's what makes your solo unique is
[Bb] _
_ _ Knowing the scales to use and _
_ Placing them in different spots
So that's very basic.
I mean that'll get you you practice that and at least you'll start it You'll start
_ [D] you know building your
_ Vocabulary of scales up so that when [Eb] you hit a chord you'll just know
Like you just know that a certain scale goes with a certain chord
_ [N] or certain
Two or three different scales may go with this chord
And you can just pick whichever one you feel at the moment at the moment
Or you can play a combination of all three of them or all four of them however many there are so
Once again, this is very basic for soloing techniques.
Hope you enjoyed this tutorial.
