In this short jazz piano lesson, you will learn a great warm up exercise to use before each time you sit down to play or practice. In this exercise, you alternate between arppegiating a Major7#11 chord and minor11 chord, moving this pattern down in half-steps.

Love it.
Here is a question for you. Did you ever hear Tord Gustavsen trio. I love them a lot. I was wondering if you could make a comment on their style and voicing.
Yes, I have heard of them, but I will need to listen again before making any comments about their style!

I like warm-ups since my fingers tend to freeze up as I play. Its a minor nuisance, but a warmup always helps; especially these faster warm-ups. I find moving my fingers incoherently doesn’t really work for me. I need strict discipline for my fingers.
