Should you use shell voicings, rootless voicings, spread voicings, quartal voicings, or upper structures?
In this episode, I break down the purpose behind each of these voicing types and explain one of the biggest mindset shifts that separates students from professional jazz pianists.
Great jazz pianists don’t ask: “Which voicing is best?”
They ask: How Do Jazz Pianists Know Which Voicings To Use?”What sound am I trying to create?”
You’ll discover when and why to use shell voicings for clarity, rootless voicings for ensemble playing, spread voicings for solo piano, quartal voicings for a modern sound, and upper structures for tension and color.
Because every voicing has a job—and once you understand that job, choosing the right voicing becomes much easier.
