  • In this lesson, you'll learn the two basic gypsy jazz comping technique - La Pompe movements that you MUST HAVE.
    They are the key to playing proper La Pompe. Without them, your La Pompe just won't sound good enough. Take my word for it. I've seen it again and again. There are some things that you can't run away from. Having the right movements is one of them.

    Watch this video to learn these motions and how they're used in two styles of La Pompe accompaniment:
    Modern - like many of today's most prominent players, especially in France, and
    Traditional - like Django Reinhardt and his accompanists (though, if you listen carefully you'll hear examples of modern la pompe even on his recordings).
    Learn just the strokes you need to use and the quality of sound you want to produce.
    Find out what I mean by short and shorter and jump, freeze and slap, feel great accompanying lead players in any situation!

    Yes, that's the secret. It opened my eyes - and ears. Most teach the first downstroke more or less on the four lower strings (E to g), then the second stroke on the four higher strings (D to e), using an identical stroke movement. But it is that "Arpeggio" movement on the first stroke, that makes the difference. Thanks.

      The two movements must sound different and be short and shorter!

    Hi Yaakov and fellow Yaakovians: I have just discovered that setting the metronome at a slower speed and counting so the click is on the 2 and the 4 is a good way of practising this. The click just happens on the short stroke.

    Thanks!! To summarize: "The first downstroke is short, the second downstroke is shorter" - Rack on first stroke. First down has quck jump up. Second downstroke is slap faster.and metalic. Play soft. Yaakov teaches the la pompe with only downstroke here. Second is a slap half muted

      I use a Carlos pickup with an external eq to connect to my amp or a condenser mic in halls. I don't love the sound of the bridge pickups such as the big-tone.

    What is the left hand doing to get a half mute?

    • @Gypsyandjazz
      @Gypsyandjazz  Před 3 lety +2

      Press the strings but not too strong. If you just touch the strings it's completely muted. If you press hard it's a clear sound. So somewhere in the middle

      @@Gypsyandjazz it is very easy to practice on full barre chords first as you can sound all of the strings (nothing needs to be fully muted). I did this just playing pop music (with no drummer) for 15 years before I started with la pompe and the skills transfer pretty quickly. Thanks for the very clear video and comparing to the drum kit was especially helpful for me.

    Ciao Y et al. I'm just now stumbling into Gypsy Jazz. Thanks for the excellent instruction!!! I've tried to relax into La Pompe, but at a certain speed, it just falls apart; something about the tension in my right hand. When I try to relex, the pick falls out of my hand. One thing that I discovered accidentally (everyone else probably already knows this) is that if you use the "rounded" part of your pick [Dunlap 2.0 in my case] instead of the "pointy" part, proper La Ponpe feels much more do-able. Also, I believe we all have our own limitations when it come to relfexes like those needed to play fast. Mine just seems to be very, very, limited.
