going to https://learnjazzpiano.com brings up a wordpress page that you can't do anything with.

same here...what's going on?
my 2c:

1. get a gig.  if not possible, find a way to play regularly with other people in a rehearsal situation.

2. record yourself playing.  listen to is, and work out where it needs improving.  post yourself on youtube.
hmmmmmm....


maybe somebody hacked something?
practice the 7 systems. play the same tune entirley in each system , then one bar each, then morph from one to another when it's appropriate. also develop a set of "designer voicings" for every possible melody note in the soprano voice.
i'm having the same problem.  it is learnjazzpiano.com without the www. it doesnt matter if i type in the www.learnjazzpiano.com url - it resets to the address without the www.

what's going on?
i think jazz+ is referring to mark levine´s 7 voicing systems, taught in "the jazz piano book" and used in a very clear way on the aebersold cd "the magic of miles" (a transcription is available).

stacks of thirds
stacks of fourths
stacks of fifths ("kenny barron" voicings)
"so what" chords (and inversions of them)
left-hand voicings with octave+fifth or octave+third in right hand
upper structure triads (often combined with left-hand voicings)
drop 2 block chords
some sob hacked ljp. luckily the word press page took precedence over the page they put on my site. have no idea how it happened, but i'll figure it out. luckily they didn't hack the forum, but somehow they deleted my index.mvc page. have to ask the server guys if they know something.
If I'm not back in 24 hours, call the president.

and tonite im gonna see jerry lee lewis so i will have broken nail or two by tomorrow nite.
oy...it looks like fatal error owns you.  google learnjazzpiano.com and you'll see.  fortunately, the site is still accessible from google's sublinks.
what are the 7 systems?
stuff like this shows you why you should never make your passwords on forums the same as your email passwords.

hm
i'm trying to track down what happened. i know there were some files placed on the site, php files, with known security risks.  there was a possible problem with how uploads are dealt with, not sure, but it's been dealt with.  hopefully this won't happen again!
