    Fantastic condensed lesson, just great! Love all the line examples with the theory, and your solo is great-modern but rooted in the great bebop language! Thanks so much for posting this!

    I've been sweating over Stella for 20 years now, by memorizing chord sequences. I have never made an improvisation on this tune that satisfies me (or anyone else!).
    Ms Stella's chords progress in counter-intuitive ways and it is always a great relief to me when the final 8-bar section, with its logical descending minor II Vs arrives. From your analysis, I can see what to practice. Thanks.

      Glad this lesson was helpful! Remember that there's a free PDF for this lesson on my website! Just find the thumbnail and click on it under "CZcams downloads." Happy practicing!

  • @pablojuancarballorodriguez1992

    EXCELLENT MAESTRO!!!!!! I would greatly like to see your soloing of There Will Never Be Another You.. same as this Stella, Thank you for assistance. Super help. Best rregards PROFESOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    great video. maybe you could extend it by making a tutorial about voice leading and how to approach a jazz standard to comp, specially here where the chord jumps are quite big

    • @NathanBortonMusic
      @NathanBortonMusic  Před 2 lety +2

      Sure! I could do a video just on comping. In this one I was just focusing more on soloing and really just playing the chords to keep track of where we were in the song. A comping video could be cool!

    I am currently studying Stella and your video is very helpful to open my horizon. So I have listened to your album and Waow ... I was looking for Wes/Keeny/Grant influenced modern guitarist and I think I have found it. Great tone and very tasteful music. Thank you for all of this. Is it possible to find it on vynil record ?

    • @NathanBortonMusic
      @NathanBortonMusic  Před 5 měsíci

      Amazing! Thanks for listening to the record! Unfortunately for vinyl right now, maybe on future releases. I do have physical copies for sale online though!

    Great video Nathan, but for the A flat 7 #11, isn't it less confusing to call it an A flat Lydian Dominant scale?

    • @NathanBortonMusic
      @NathanBortonMusic  Před 3 měsíci

      I think what ever way works best for you is the best :) For me, I like to say Eb melodic minor because that's exactly what I play!

  • @jiahongyang6321
    @jiahongyang6321 Před rokem

    the fmaj7 really confuses me because I don’t think Vmaj7 chord really make sense. Would you consider that as a modulation?

    Hey Nathan, nice breakdown. Here is a bit of honest, constructive criticism from a random viewer (me), with no disrespect intended: the low background music when you are talking makes it hard to follow what you are saying. I’m carefully trying absorb your ideas and imagine the sounds that you are describing, but there’s this other, unrelated thing happening in the background. It sort of scrambles my brain and makes the experience frustrating. But otherwise, great lesson!
