    LESSON NOTES:
    Intervals are everything in music. As musicians, or composers, we need to measure out intervals all day long.
    A chord voicing is a stack of intervals. A scale is a set of intervals. And how quickly you can find your way to the notes depends on how quickly you can count intervals.

      +fxdlriderny Arr comment of the day. I love to hearing this - I've been thinking a lot about the big picture lately, trying to boil things down to the few things that really matter, and this is one of the few things.

    This seems to be the natural way to learn intervals as I've been doing this without realizing it and quite a lot of comments state something similar. It still helps to be conscious of it, speeds up the learning process, so thanks for this video! Quality stuff, subbing for sure.

    About 2 weeks ago I was watching the video Jaco Pastorius modern electric bass. In the interview he spoke of doing most of his learning away from his instrument in his brain.....I was inspired but not really sure how to begin..... You video is just what i needed to help put a focus to those first steps of visualization. Thanks a bunch!

  • @johnsafox2
    @johnsafox2 Před 8 lety

    This is a really good exercise. I've been doing something similar to try and get the patterns and sounds of each modal scale into my musical reflex. One thing that has really helped is visualizing the fretboard or the keyboard in my mind so I can see the shape of the interval. It's easier for me to hear a fifth in my mind if I imagine playing C and G on the piano. It's kind of helped me map out the instrument and avoid searching for the right note. Really a great lesson. It's always nice to find something I'm excited to practice.

    Julian, thank you for this. I feel like in an evening I realized I've been playing with intervals all along, but hadn't 'connected' the intervals I was playing between each hand. It's already changed the way I play and improvise. Thank you

    • @jazztutorial
      @jazztutorial  Před 8 lety

      +malfunkt Wow, I'm so pleased to hear this Malfunkt! I was the same way - people kept asking me if I think in 'notes' or 'numbers' - but the answer is 'intervals'. That's all I think in.
      I'm so pleased you've made this connection, and I really appreciate the comment!
