  • In this 4k jazz ukulele tutorial you'll learn how to play a I - VI - II - V jazz chord progression. Uke Like The Pros membership bit.ly/2HSQp8J
    Shout out to Christopher Davis-Shannon for the inspiration for this lesson, / untitledtopher
    or at IG @banjoleletinman.
    The I - VI - II - V - I chord progression is one of the most popular progressions in Jazz.
    We are in the key of C so the I chord is C, the VI chord is A, the II chord is D, and the V chord is G.
    Normally the vi and the ii chords are minor but in this lesson we are going to make all the chords (except the C) dominant chords or 7th chords.
    This gives it a little bounce and keeps the sound jumping.
    I added a special ending that brings it all together.
    After playing the I - VI - II - V progression 3 times you will end with a C, C diminished 7, G/B, and C.
    The rhythm for this lesson will alternate between D DU D DU to DUMU(T)UDU. The D is downstroke, the U is upstroke, M is mute, and (T) is tie. There is a tie between beats “2” and the “+ of 2” in the second pattern.
    To get the mute I will be using a right hand palm mute.

    I like the camera angle, perfectly conceals what you're doing with you fingers

    • @Ukelikethepros
      @Ukelikethepros  Před 5 lety +5

      You mean the chord hand? Do the chord diagrams I show help? The camera angle is always changing, it either shows the right hand well or the left hand well.

      The chord diagrams do help :) this is why you gotta practice the essentials like chords and finger positioning instead of trying to only rely on looking at the player’s fingers 🤣

    Can you play along with the appropriate fingerings for the same chords on the baritone? and if so how would you play the G/B chord on the baritone. I was trying to play along but with a Baritone but the slash chord has me all sorts of confused :( .

    How to play three octaves of C scale in ukulele?

    • @Ukelikethepros
      @Ukelikethepros  Před 5 lety +1

      It’s not possible unless the last few bites of the second octave are harmonics. But you can get 2 1/2 octaves if have a tenor neck

    This progression sounds cool, but how can it be used to extend what I already play?

    • @Ukelikethepros
      @Ukelikethepros  Před 5 lety +1

      This is an excellent question. I'm not sure what you play already but this can be great for an introduction to a song, actually many jazz and Hawaiian songs use this as an introduction or even an outro. Make sure to understand what key I do this in so then you can transpose it to whatever key your playing in.

    question: Why/ how does it go from A minor to A7?

    • @waterflame3454
      @waterflame3454 Před 3 lety

      For me, this is a chord progression that lives from dominant chords. I will explain it in a reversed way: The G7 leads perfectly to C, because it's the dominant chord. The D7 is the secondary dominant chord of G, so it leads to G. A7 is the secondary dominant chord of D, therefore it leads to D. And the C is just our home-chord. Even though A7 and D7 are not in the key of C Major, it's okay because they lead to each other. This a perfect case in which you are "allowed" to leave the key of C Major.

    • @waterflame3454
      @waterflame3454 Před 3 lety +1

      And a little music theory hint: This D7 chord shape has no D-tone in it, so it's more like a F# diminished triad. ;)

    • @ukaszbudzynski9113
      @ukaszbudzynski9113 Před 2 lety +2

      @@waterflame3454 That's what I don't understand. Isn't the D7 (a, d, f#, c)? Here we've got (a, c, f#, a). Is the lack of d for the sound or easiness of fingering? When I play the "true" D7 it doesn't sound nice for me, but does with the D (a, d, f#, a) ;) But why do we call it the D7 then and why use it instead of D? Is it because of the explanation in your first reply?
