Ybyb Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Designed for medium-advanced players, this analysis of Chick's recent solo playing includes discussions of modal assignment, cycled harmonies, modal anthems, ten drummers, and much more. Free for thee. http://youtu.be/OmNI8HuPhDM There are NO 2-5-1's at any point during the performance) Free. Blessings and keep swinging!

marino Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Very interesting, useful and well done - and the price is right. Only thing, I wouldn't have called it a "Chick Corea Master Class", as one is leaded to believe that it's Chick in person. Anyway, it's masterfully done and enjoyable. Thank you!

David Loving Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Re: "master Class" . Master Class usually always means the named artist is holding court. Regulars to Dave Frank's excellent courses know that he is just breaking the tricks and licks down to an understandable level. Frank is exceptional. "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown."

Joe Muscara Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Dave, these videos and this one in particular are great. Funny, too. Might I ask why you use Ybyb instead of Dave Frank or Dave Frank Jazz as your username on here? I just had a thought of something that might be cool. I'd love to know where Chick might have gotten some of these techniques from. That could be a class in itself. Where did things like "Ten Drummers" or Cycled Harmonies come from? Did someone do this technique before Chick? What earlier ideas did Chick take and advance to what he does now and how? Etc. Not only would that be interesting history, but it could give us some more fundamental approaches to what he's doing that we could study and hopefully bring ourselves to more of a level where we could start touching on what he's doing.

Ybyb Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Chick would have to answer these questions I think.. DF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzwee Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hey Dave, wonderful Master Class! Really enjoyed it. Now are these terms you use "Modal Interchange" etc. commonly used or are they your own inventions? Just wondering for communications purposes.

Ybyb Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 The terms I made up for this one are "modal anthem", "harmonic moniker", and the Hasidic Dominant scale (that's a laffer:) Nice to see you here JW.. DF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzmammal Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Great vid, Dave. I've really enjoyed your vids since I found them a couple of years ago. Good stuff.

Moon Zero Two Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I watched this and really enjoyed it! A nice holiday present! Chick is one of the greats. I am going to try to incorporate some of these concepts. Thanks Dave - keep up the good work and keep these videos coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudyS Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Frank, thank you very much for the master classes! They are outstanding. I have a question though. You are speaking about "notes on the website", but I can't seem to find them. Rudy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEB Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 As much as Chick crossed over into electronic jazz and became a pioneering electronic keyboardist I don't recall him ever playing a Hammond.
