In this episode, Brenden reveals 3 powerful left hand techniques that instantly transform your sound — whether you’re comping in a group or creating solo piano arrangements.

These tools are simple to apply but rich in musical payoff — especially if you’ve been stuck using the same voicings over and over.

🎹 What You’ll Learn:

  1. 3-Note Rootless Manipulation
    • Learn how to remove a finger from your rootless voicing to create leaner, funkier textures
    • Quickly swap in different extensions to add flavor — without relearning shapes
  2. Quartal Voicings Up the Scale
    • Use stacked 4ths to move through 2-5-1s with a modern sound
    • Perfect for modal comping and open, Herbie-style harmony
  3. Low Register Anchoring
    • How to use your LH in the bass register to add drama, spice, and harmonic weight
    • Especially effective in solo piano or small trio settings

🧠 Why These Tricks Matter:

They’ll help you:

  • Break out of static comping
  • Sound more expressive without sounding busier
  • Add instant jazz character to your playing
