    Have you ever wondered, how to better solo on jazz guitar? Have you searched the internet for Jazz Guitar Improvisation tips and exercises? You may have been noodling around your scales up and down, but does it sound any good? Does it sound like a good jazz guitar solo? If the answer is no, this jazz guitar improvisation lesson is for you!
    In this Jazz Guitar Improv Lesson I'll show you:
    How to target chord tones in a jazz solo.
    Creating tension and release with your jazz guitar lines.
    Jazz guitar licks and lines for Dorian mode, altered scale, diminished arpeggios and ionian scale.
    I'll show you detailed how to land on a chord tone and what "landing" means anyway. It's important for every kind of jazz guitar improvisation to land on chord tones. I'll show you Jazz Guitar Improvisation exercises and tips.
    Equaly important is the way we create tension to build up the altered chord and to resolve it into the major chord. We'll use the according scales, but emphasize on the important notes and
    thus outline the underlying chord. This is what a good jazz guitar improvisation is all about.
    You'll quickly understand the concept with my Jazz Guitar Improvisation For Beginners Lesson. I'll also guide you through the most common chord progression in Jazz Guitar Improvsation, namely the II V I cadence. If you can outline the chord tones you know how to jazz guitar improvise.
    The jazz guitar licks in dorian, altered and ionian will help you to understand these concepts.
    At the end we'll glue everything together and have two entire lines of a 2 5 1. It has all the ingredients for a great Jazz Guitar Improv tutorial.
    With my jazz guitar soloing techniques you'll be able to create your own exciting jazz lines and thus enjoy jazz guitar improvisation a lot more. Your listeners will like your new approach too!
    I've made a nice PDF with all the jazz guitar scales, arpeggios and lines showed in this jazz guitar improvisation for beginners lesson, which you can download from the above link.
    I also made Jazz Guitar Improvisation backing track (six actually, in different tempos and scales), so you can utilize all the new jazz guitar Improvisation exercises you've learned in this tutorial.

    Playing rock and roll, blues and classical for most of my life, learning jazz-and becoming fluent-remains the greatest musical challenge I’ve faced. I’ve studied altered scales, chord tone soloing and arpeggios for so long, and it’s still a challenge. This is one of THE clearest and best lessons on the whole deal. Awesome! I’d love to come play in Austria with you sometime! Greeeeeeetings from the USA.

      1: Learn the chords
      2: Learn the major scale
      3: Learn chord tones (arpeggios)
      4: Learn jazz lines (transcribe from the masters or learn them from videos) to get the typical jazz sound
      Don't forget to take it to practical use from day 1. Learn your chords over standards, scales the samw, etc. Always apply it to a song after a few days of practicing "dry".

      This is a vet important lesson and will work a lot on that stuff. It's what makes all the difference. But first we need to find the correct scale and chord. At the university, I was busy for a while just to figure out what scale is the right one and finding it quickly. Well systematically approach all this and with your patient attitude and diligent practice you'll be there soon!

    A video about a whole form solo could be a good idea, I mean, three chorus of soloing, how to do direction in the solo, where to do the climax, how to start, how to finish, etc not in chord/scale concept, but in a form concept. Learn to analyze a complete form of a solo. I hope that I´ve explained well.
    You really have a gift in order to explain whatever you wish. Congrats again.

    Como siempre, una lección espléndida. Voy a comprar y a recomendar el "full package" porque aunque no entiendo el inglés, en esta ocasión me parece que es fundamental aprender bien todos los ejemplos porque la improvisación con escalas es lo que realmente es el jazz!!, tocar solamente la melodía no es suficiente, eso no es el jazz. Muchas gracias Sandra por empezar a tratar en tus clases el tema de los solos.

    Hi Sandra; I really do love your channel and have found several of your downloads very useful. How should we handle the 3rd string, seventh fret D note (the fifth of G7B9) since it is note contained in the G Altered Scale? Is it just a passing note during solos? Skip it all together? Thank you, Joe

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Před 3 lety +1

      There's many scales, that can be used over altered Chords. The diminished scale features a diminished chord, which can be played over other altered Chords. The 5th is ok. If it clashes against a #5 keep on moving and don't set on it too long. It's perfectly fine over a 7b9 chord for example.

    Do you use this diminished arpeggio up to altered scale down approach regularly when soloing over an altered V chord? Should I really focus on learning this for use all the time or is it just one example of how to find the chord tones?

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Před 5 lety

      Hi Mike, Diminished Arpeggios are one of the most used tools when it comes to altered chords. It's basically a 7b9 arpeggio. I will discuss that in a later lesson. So yes, it's very important and gets you away from noodling the altered scale up and down. The diminished arpeggio is the easiest way to create tension quickly, bc you can go from low to high and vc vetsa very fast. Staying too long on adjacent strings usually doesn't create good tension.

    I started to play the Clarinet in an austrian church while i was studying there, how to read music and keep timing, Mozart and Hayden were ok, the Rolling stones or Prince well, fun... but Jazz Oooh man, that was a ritual for me, quite atmosphere, aromatic coffee round and listning carefully for each tone played in the improvisation part played by Jazz Kings, Jazz has always been the only music i respect most but.... never understood it though i wished... till now :-)
    Now my guitar playing sound better :-)
    Thank you very much !

  • @millerviz
    @millerviz Před 4 lety

    Question about methodology? Do you have all this in your head as you solo (chord tones, strong and weak beats, altered tones, etc) or do you memorize a lot of constructed licks and use them as you play. I understand the concepts but find it overwhelming to think about having all of this in my head as I improvise.

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Před 4 lety

      It's a mix of both. There's a plethora of chord tones and scale patterns stored in my brain (but I keep forgetting what I did just 5 minutes ago, lol) and I mm bests and off beats. But I also have learned many many pre-constructed fees like the ones in the video. Once you know them and feel how to place them correctly rhythmically, it's easy to improvise with that material.
      Well, not exactly easy, you still need to practice it many times, lol.

    I am confused, you said that we should land chord tones on the beat (4:53)? But in your example, all the chord tone targeting actually lands on the 4and?

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Před 4 lety +1

      Yes, play chord tones more often on the beats. "Landing" means to have a tone ring longer than the others, or the end of a phrase. When you end a phrase, the last note is what stays in your ear, no matter when it's played. And in jazz we like to end our phrases on the off-beats (and), bc it has a pushy feeling to it. Ending on the beat sounds boring.
      So, try to make your long tones chord tones!

    Hi Sandra, Question: what are you thinking when you are soloing? There are so many options to consider: tone notes, arpegios, scales, leading tones, etc. Are those considerations already Incorporated into "licks" that you've previously memorized so that you can "improvise" your solo? Or are you thinking about the chords and related notes as you play. I ask because learning the many scales, arpegios, etc. seem overwhelming for an amateur player. Thanks for all!

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Před 5 lety +1

      I always think about food when playing 😊
      But seriously, it's a mixture. I've learned my scales and arps so well, that I don't have to think about them anymore. But jazzers learn tons of lines, where all this is incorporated already. Most jazzers never really play 100% improvisation. It's all just memorized lines plus some improv in between. The more experienced one is, the more those lines are being modified and improvised with.
      1. Learn a new arpeggio (just one, say a major 7th arp).
      2. Transcribe a line from your hero, as he plays over a major 7th chord.
      3. Try to create your own line with the arpeggio you've learned, plus some scale tones and maybe chromatic. Try to mimic the phrasing (rhythm) of the line you've transcribed.
      5. Practice both lines through the cycle of 4ths.

    @XwpisONOMA Před 2 lety

    I will never understand why do we have while playing to think (say) in D dorian or F (lydian) etc if the foundation is (in this case) the C major scale. As long as the notes are right within a chord why should it matter what "mode" we are in? Each scale has seven distinct chords but the notes are from the same fundamental scale. Now if we start using chords outside that scale then I can understand we have to think outside the box (of that original scale). Anyway, I hope some one could explain and justify the need for modes in Jazz. To me it is perhaps a naming convention more than a fundamental necessity. Please chime in, thanks!

    • @GuitarversumSandraSherman
      @GuitarversumSandraSherman  Před 2 lety

      But that's exactly what I explained in the video. Maybe you want to rewatch it 😉.
      A mode helps you to focus on the chord tones. If you play over a G7 chord in the key of C and think C all the time, you will eventually land on C, which is the Avoid Note (the worst sounding now) for a G7 chord.

      Es geht nach Cmaj7, nicht nach Cm7, wenn ich mich recht erinnere (hab das Video zuletzt beim schneiden vor paar Jahren gesehen) 😊.
      Und G phryg. Dom IST die 5. Stufe der C harm mim scale. Wie gesagt, die spielst du eher wenn es nach Moll auflöst. Aber wenn's dir gut gefällt kannst du sie auch spielen, wenn's nach major geht 😊.
