A Jazz Piano Christmas 2025 – But not at the Kennedy Center

For more than three decades, “A Jazz Piano Christmas” at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. has been a quiet highlight of the holiday season for jazz and piano lovers. No fixed formulas, no “seasonal jazz” clichés — just strong pianistic voices working with familiar material. This year, the live concert is on pause. Here’s what changed, and where pianists can still turn for meaningful jazz piano Christmas listening and playing. Read more

Left hand Rythmic patterns
on: May 03, 2004, 04:47:45 PM
Hi everyone,

Could someone help me find some simple and various left hand rythmic patterns in different styles ?

I would like to try to:

1. play these patterns in all keys and through different
   chord progresssions (I-IV-V, II-V-I for example...),
2. practice some right hand exercices, scales, melodies,
   etc. over them.

By the way, what keys - out of the 12 - would you suggest to be the most important to master (because they are the most common OR because, by mastering them, we can be at ease with some others for similarity reasons OR etc. ) ?

Thanks really in advance !
