In this series of videos I cover everything you need to know about Jazz Scales, including but not limited to:
- How scales are related to chords (the Chord-Scale System)
- Why you can use different scales over the same chord
- Commonly used jazz scales including: melodic minor modes, bebop scales, whole tone scale, diminished scale, pentatonic scale.

How is it possible to use different scales over the same chord, if a chord progression is in a particular key? I try to answer this question in this Jazz Piano Tutorial. I discuss the difference between playing in a key and playing from a key - a very important distinction. And I try explain why particular scales fit over particular chords.

In essence you can play any scale over a chord, if that scale has the root, third and seventh of the chord in it. So for example, you can use any scale with a C, E and B in it over a C Major 7 chord.
