Ron your ubiquitous online presence is so very much appreciated - not enough folks of your generation have embraced the new method of global communication - this is the key to the future harmonization of our planet. It's tricky because us musicians love the particulars of regional music "Detroit sound - Philly sound...etc." but I think we have to face the fact that this is the past and the push towards globalization is what can save us on every level - we are all one and you are doing your part! Thanks for the inspiration!
@frank you said it man, the more teachers we have out here the better, and the only way we will get more "regional sounds" is if we have enough guidance
Man his feel is out of this world....amazing artist
Thank you for such kind words...
He has been my favorite double bass player since Victor Bailey (Rip) turned me onto him while taking lessons. Just incredible!!
Getting a wealth of information from Ron Carter is a gift from the Eternal, thank you!
SO GREAT, Maestro! 🙌🏽
Advice from the greats are worth it's weight in gold what a fantastic Bass player love all these time gone by players
The bass is the closest thing I know of that performs the function of a drum and a stringed instrument simultaneously.
We are blessed to have such a great person among us. Just listen to the quintet of Miles where Ron had so much impact. And on top of that he is simply a very nice man.
Thank you for such kind words.
@@RonCarterBassist Gee Sir, I feel so honored that you wrote back.
Thank you very much!
And don’t forget - you are so loved by so many people, I’m just one of them.
Great to see the notes you play in real time!
At an age where most people are already old and thinking of a retirement in Miami you keep the young spirit and the will to teach your instrument, which is part of your life. Of all the wise things that you can teach I find that the most inspiring. Thank you, Mr. Carter
I could never be more grateful for having been able to take this course. I feel privileged. It has made me see the instrument in a different way. And of course, watching you play is always fascinating. Thank you so much Mr. Carter!!!!
I'm honored to hear it helped you so much, Mr. Pacheco... Thank you for your kind words!
Beautifully, brilliantly, and patiently explained. I could sit and listen to RC all day.
Thank you Maestro! You have been a lifetime of inspiration.
Thank you for your kind words... I'm glad to have inspired you.
The course is $129 USD for 4.5 hrs of Carter wisdom. Insanely good value!
Ron Carter you don't how much influence on me!! Ray Brown, Scott Lafaro, Paul Chambers also had a great influence on me.
I am a beginner upright bassist!! What advice you have for me? I play electric bass.
The same advice I give everyone, Mr. Richardson: practice diligently, and listen carefully. I recommend you practice 1-2 hours every day, if you are looking to pursue this beyond a casual hobby. Practice with a purpose. Know what you are working on and focus on that. Get a solid grasp on your chords so you can understand how your notes will fit in with the notes of others. Listen to the music you want to play and study it with this in mind. I go into more detail in my books, which you can find on my website (www.roncarterjazz.com). I wish you the very best of luck on your journey as a musician, Mr. Richardson :) Take care.
@@RonCarterBassist Mr. Carter do you recommend at Hard Shell Bass Case or a Soft Case when traveling in the city or national or international and etc. I hope you come here to Chicago for a gig to watch you play live. Thank you for the advice!! I am in my 50's getting back to playing bass again.
I want to play beyond the hobby, I want have a career as a working professional Bassist.
He is a treasure...
I enjoyed tracking down my friend Christain McBride whenever he's in Switzerland listening to his music with other great musicians like B. Mehldau, J.Redmen etc, but now I understand the nuances that he would play around the B.Blade, I can finally hear and feel the fillers in the chords. Thanks Mr. Carter!!!
First 54 seconds and dudes spitting facts
I am a pianist, and this is GOLD!
That is so beautiful.
This is generous of you. Thanks.
Thank you Maestro!
Thanks for sharing all this wisdom Maestro Carter!
I saw the documentary about you and it appears you are as excellent a human being as you are bass player, maybe even better, and that's saying something! Thank you for being who you are, Ron!
Truly loved listening to Mr. Carter break this down, and to believe I came here thinking about a Q-Tip sample.
I'm glad you enjoyed :)
Thank you Sensei!!
Grandissimo Ron!👏
Notice how the sound of the metronome disappears when he plays? Sense of time is incredible.
What a tone.. wow
Thank you for sharing this beautiful lesson. This is ESSENTIAL knowledge.
You're very welcome :) I'm glad you enjoyed.
Brilliance!☀
Mr Carter just want to let you know I haven't stopped practicing since I last commented on that Brady watt video i saw you in, and everything been clicking different and I'm opening new understandings and sounds on my bass that I never thought I'd hear it's starting to become one with me.. thank you Sir for the Inspiration and changing my mind..🙏🏾🔆
This is what I wanted to be lectured, Ron san ! Thank you very much.
Ohhh man. I needed this…Love Ron Carter
I'm glad it helped ;)
I’m honored and amazed that you bothered to respond to me. I showed your reply to my wife tonight and we were deeply moved. Keep on truckin Ron Carter!!!
Thank you Ron, you’re a valuable source. I love your work and your teaching style. As a horn player, I find your videos have helped me understand what is going on with the bass.
I'm very glad to hear that, Mr. Mitton :) Thank you.
Really great when such a legend reacts to comments!
It's my pleasure :)
I needed this. I've been sloppy.
Deus abençoe sua vida sua família o Sr merece todo meu respeito
Te amo ron 💎
Great
HI Ron, 27 y/o from Seattle here. I am entranced by your performances on Ptah the El Daoud. I've been listening to it every day for a few months now. Any thoughts on your work during that album's recording, or was it just another day for you? Your melodies are mesmerizing.
Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Reyes. I don't remember many specifics about my playing on that album, however I can say that working with Mrs. Coltrane was a pleasure. She really put a lot of trust in the band to make the music happen and understand what direction she needed the songs to go.
That bass has got some miles on it
Was Ron Carter's 'secret' that he always found the right note, or that he always played perfectly in tune? Or was it both? Or was it the sound he got out of the bass? Or was it the bass he used? Or was it everything I mentioned? I'm transcribing his bass part for a big band arr. I'm writing of "Down Here on the Ground" with Wes Montgomery, and I can't believe how perfect it is. Was he playing Sebesky's arrangement, or was he playing what he thought was right? He seems to change the bass notes on Wes' solo to fit the solo, rather than play the changes that were played on the head. I don't know if they worked it out before, or if they were reading each others' minds. Whatever it was, it's a work of genius.
7:42 I hear the contrast.
Beautiful! By the way, what's that long piece of wood on the headstock?
It’s an extension to let me play lower notes- it goes down to low C. I was one of the first guys to do this. I’ve been using that extension since 1969.
❤❤❤
Thanks Ron... I have finally found a bassist like you..
Thanks for your lesson..
I love your sound. The crispiness is nice...
Just curious. Wich strings do you use? And often do you change them?
I use LaBella Professional JazzStrings set #7710T... I change them as soon as I feel them getting worn out, which can be fairly often during the touring season.
@@RonCarterBassist thanks for reply 🙂🙂
wow...
🤘🏽👽🎶
❤
Thank You for this lesson an your music and collaborations I've been discovering since I started studying music as a kid into my early 20s.
I see blavk strings on your bass, Right?
I use Hybrid Spirocores light tension but sometimes I feel them rude ro play although my upright is set for jazz playing.
Would you recommend a kind of strings not too heavy to play?
I use LaBella Professional JazzStrings set #7710T
@@RonCarterBassist Thank You, Master.
Hello everybody c’est quoi ce logiciel ??? RON you are great
What’s the job of bass?
Be the boss. Understand what it means musically, understand that you have control over everything that happens in the band, and take that responsibility seriously.
Is this a 1/2 bass ?
A 3/4 bass :)
