Summary: We have developed a system of musical expression, a religion of rhythm if you will, with terms for every formal musical construct that has come along in the last 1500 years—and crystallized these terms into a grand musical theory of everything. Concepts like minor and major, chords and intervals all stand as examples of this church of harmony. Yet, jazz is one form of music that still remains aloof. Very popular among jazz players, improvisation is a great tool to test one’s knowledge of their instrument; rather than assigning value to the traditional forms, jazz musicians tap into the passions of the soul.

In these free jazz piano lessons on video, expert pianist Ryan Larson shows us not only how to improve our freestyle skills, but also how to read and write music on paper—since you are only able to improvise with as much as you know. Lessons include how to play 2-5 chords, how to do chord progressions in the key of E major, how to use sharps, flats and intervals, how to play bass lines, how to change chord voicings, and how to compose for jazz piano.
