Thank you, Chris. Terrific lesson, particularly the ideas that incorporate arpeggios from the chord starting at the top and moving to the bottom. What is also really helpful is the musical notation as a play-along at the bottom of the screen. You got it all covered--the improv ideas, the musical notations, and your playing. So, one way or another, you're going to find your way to the skill...
Agreed it's important to listen to and sing along the chosen standard, furthermore I would add that another way to learn the harmonic movement is just to concentrate to the bass line and try to sing it, in this way you internalize the structure and the tonic of the chords. It can be an easier approach for beginners that are not confident with the piano or guitar comping.
Thanks Chris. In jazz, can one flesh-out chords also with the respective pentatonic scales for a given chord? ie. In addition to cycling the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th, could one also use the 2nd and 6th from the current scale?
Thanks for the video Chris! Do you have any recommendations for jazz improv tonguing? I have a bad habit of just tonguing every note or slurring every other note I play
I really want to learn jazz but i have a problem listening to jazz and I can’t really remember any of the Melodie’s or the names of the players. I listen to and perform a lot of Taylor swift type music but I want to do jazz for money here and there. Any advice yall??? Thanks for the upload sir
Sure! I don't know how long you've been playing or where you are in your development but I'll list these: Autumn Leaves Confirmation All The Things You Are Alone Together Blues Standard Changes and with "Bird Changes"
Hi! I hope these tips help you. It's important to have patience with this process because it does take time but it also works!
What if you have to sight read and improv off of the side read for a audition?
Approaching notes are how I cover up mistakes jamming lol. Your explanation was really helpful
That was really great. I'm a guitar player, but the fundamentals are the same. You've given me a whole boat load of stuff to work on!
