Jazz Quartal Harmony Formulas

Master Modern Jazz Piano Voicings — In All 12 Keys

Discover the two-handed quartal voicings—modern chord structures built on stacked fourths—that define the post-bebop jazz sound. These are the chords pianists use when comping behind soloists, creating rich, ambiguous harmonies that open up musical possibilities. This course guides you through how to formulate and master these voicings with both hands, so you can confidently apply them in your jazz playing.

What This Course Covers:

✅ Clear explanation of quartal voicings and their application.

✅ Step-by-step system covering Major, Minor, Dominant, Altered, Half-Diminished, and Diminished chords.

✅ 23 focused video lessons, each about 30 minutes.

✅ Structured workouts practicing all formulas in all 12 keys.

✅ Complete PDFs with chord formulas and exercises.

Who It’s For:

An advanced course for jazz pianists seeking mastery of modern quartal voicings. Ideal for players familiar with the sound who want to confidently build and internalize these voicing shapes.

How It Works:

This course shows you how to formulate quartal chord voicings using simple numeric formulas. For example, a major voicing might follow the pattern (3)-4-4-4-3. By understanding the structure this way, you’ll learn how to build voicings from scratch and apply them creatively—rather than just memorizing isolated shapes. Practice routines based on chromatic motion, whole tone scales, and diminished patterns will help you internalize the sound and feel of quartal harmony both physically and aurally.

What people are saying

I just want to say that you are a fantastic teacher. I've been playing, by sight and by ear, and improvising, for over 25 years, and I've been "stuck" not understanding the jazz language. You are helping me a lot. I like the logical, practical way you think about the jazz idiom. All that to say, thank you, and please don't stop teaching piano.

— David Bedsole

Fabulous once again. You should rename this Inside Jazz; it is MUCH MORE than just piano.Your videos and tutorials are a revelation to me, a classically trained musician. I know all the standard 'book' scales, chords, and even advanced chords, but fitting this chromaticism in has been difficult for me. But thanks to your wonderful demonstrations, this is finally becoming clear to me. And I can't thank you enough.
