AVOID AVOIDING THE AVOID NOTES
AVOID NOTES? What're those? Well, don’t be afraid, because these apparently ‘forbidden’ notes are not dangerous at all - on the contrary.
In this NewJazz Lesson we’ll walk through some of the most commonly declared AVOID NOTES - and one by one I’ll show you how they are all COLORFUL, THRILLING and UNAVOIDABLE. Avoid notes give contrast and characteristics to jazz music.
We’ll also play ‘forbidden’ JAZZ CHORD PROGRESSIONS. And by the very end of this lesson I’ll show you a fascinating thrilling SUPER JAZZ CHORD that contains lots of avoid notes. This Jazz lesson will be an exciting and fun musical journey for sure…

But you showed me, that it is also possibel in a II-V-I Prog. Its realy helpfull to make some more thoughts about this term. And it is also very helpfull to have the possible Scales Graphical shown like in this Vid. thx Oliver! Whe need the Avoid-Notes to realise all the Colors of temperatet Music. I think always, the Rhytmical Positioning of Notes are very importend. I learnd so mutch things espacialy in a Practical sence from you! ANd by the Way it is also a good Ear-Training!

    Thank you for this. It is both explaining a type of logic and at the same time freeing the thought of continuous repetition. This gives structure and at the same time permission to expand beyond the norm. This is Jazz for me. To experience the complexity and appreciate the virtuosity coming from a kind, compassionate, rational, voice and the very meaning full hand gestures completely captured me. Thank you for sharing this. I'm so glad to have found you and look forward to exploring more of your insights.

    I believe there's a mistake in the formula of family 6. It shouldn't say W-H-W-H-W-H-W-H (as in whole-half-whole-half-etc.), but instead W-W-W-W-W-W-W (only wholes), otherwise it is identical to the diminished or family 5 on the chart, which alternates between whole and half steps.

He said he was so used to playing complex clusters of dissonant chords and odd scales, that they no longer sound dissonant after a while and just more interesting and cool. At 69 years old now, I understand what he meant.

      Hi :) That's a really good question. I'm not thinking so much about scales in this video, I think 'hand grips' - but if we should analyse this as musical scales (and that is also fun) we have a span form Bb Major scale over Mixolydian to Dorian - a mixture of those 3 - a mixture of minor and Major ;) Cheers from Oliver
