[Cyberclops142]

Lol at end



[AGLkiller]

1:11 State of Grace (Liquid Tension Experiment) !

[nisornt]

I really wish he would make an online piano/keyboard course.

[Niekpastest]

@nisornt

Which he has.

[wackosmacko1234]

this is brilliant, it never even occured to me that sus chords could sound that good when they're used like that!

[EleventhDecibel]

@wackosmacko1234

He uses sus chords all over the place on all his DT albums. He's a sus master.

[wackosmacko1234]

@EleventhDecibel yeah i figured that as soon as he started playing them, all hail the sus (and general keyboard playing) master!

[Annulable]

I want that mug.

[PianoHero1994]

Rudess is like the cooler version of Beethoven

[mrbouncelol]

here's another example... *lightspeed arpeggios and runs*

Love this guy

[djjavi1]

in 1:32 Whats the technique he's using? plz respond!...thx

[PianoHero1994]

@djjavi1 It just looks like really fast arpeggios

[RobBrooksMusic]

@PianoHero1994 @djjavi1 I was thinking the same thing, he uses that same technique all over this video, it looks like a fast arpeggio yes but it is a sus chord as he describes, looks like 1-4-5-8 played real fast in his right hand then an octave higher and back down etc

[RobBrooksMusic]

@RobBrooksMusic I don't know if this is right but I've been playing around with it, what sounds like to me is that he uses a 1-4-5-8 chord shape, but then also a 5-1-2-5 shape (same pattern for C major sus) so he is using both sus2 and sus4. It's really too fast for me to tell clearly, but you asked so I tried

[RobBrooksMusic]

@RobBrooksMusic Sorry for posting yet again but I just figured it out... look at 9:27 he does it slow enough to see... he is playing A-D-E then turn the thumb over, then A-D-E-A, so it's just like a classical arpeggio 1-3-5 turn thumb 1-3-5- turn.. etc then play the root with your pinky at the top, but he is using 1-4-5 instead of 1-3-5

[tangcw00]

champion !

[AceBergdorf]

does he know, he's my hero? i look up to him. More than beethoven and stuff. seriously.

[jaytonbye]

Can anyone give me some tips for the fingerings while doing this exercise? Sometimes the fingering is awkward when progressing to certain chords (for example Dm to Bb with the left hand) Thanks.

[jaytonbye]

I'm learning so much from this video, thank you!

[josefzachariassen]

i bought this movie. it was amazing. i learned allot of new tips and exercises. but now i am looking for another movie anyone got any good piano movies in their minds ?

[marshallman83]

@josefzachariassen Try Walter Bishop Jr's Theory of Fourths.

[josefzachariassen]

@marshallman83 thanks allot man :)

[ironwolg]

i love sus chords

[jaqetall]

somebody knows if this part is a song or something 0:47 to 1:05, thanks

[QuarkS0up]

Stillness from Secrets of the Muse or Masada from the Rudess/Morgenstein project.

[kimalainensieni]

and is there c7sus for example?

[manKipke]

It´s just a "basic" Csus(2) or Csus(4) Chord where you add the seventh:

Csus(2) = C D G Bb

Csus(4) = C F G Bb

[ninjabunny999]

Csus(4)= C F G

Csus2= C D G

C7= C E G Bb

Btw, Csus by default is Csus4

[persini]

1:20 :-)

[DrBlowThingsUp]

i prefer sus2 chords to sus4. they sound spacier :)

[iwant2piece]

could you tell me the difference please? I understand music, but I'm more familiar with a different kind of notation system.

[themichaelc]

sus2 is when you play the second note of the scale instead of the third, and fourth is you play the 4th instead. So Csus2 is C, D, G. Csus4 is C, F, G.

[scaryfishdude]

You know what's really awesome is the C7 sus2 sus4 arpeggio.

[themichaelc]

...isn't that just a myxolydian mode without the 6th?

[scaryfishdude]

I don't think so. It's C, D, F, G, B.

[themichaelc]

Isn't C7 C E G Bb though?

[musicfromhell]

Yeah. C7 would indicate that the 7 is flatted. If you played a B instead of a Bb, it would be notated as CM7 (Major 7).

[DrBlowThingsUp]

suspension is where you swap the 3rd of a chord for a fourth or a second. sus4 is with the fourth and sus2 is with the second, for example CDG is a Csus2 and CFG is a sus4 :)

[tomacoexperiment]

it depends on the harmonic function of the suspended interval, sometimes the sus2 is just an add9 in a tonic chord, but if you use it as a suspended 2nd and solve it in the fundamental it will not sound so great...

sorry for my english

[nolie94]

you are truly a wizard jordan.

[BlackDollarBills]

derek sherinian LOVES sus chords and altered bass. Listen to any planet x song, and it will be full of this stuff :)
