3 Things to Do with Guidetone Lines 

No matter what Instrument you play, best Jazz education channel on RU-vid

though i am a guitarist, thsio is the best educational jazz chanel on thsi palttform!

Yes. Barcelona. Thank you. Such a great distinctioin. "Hearing ahead" versus "reacting" to the chord that I am on seems the crux of the matter. I know that I really *know* a tune, when I can "hear ahead" and therefore relax into the natural (mysterious) unfolding of a melodic phrase coming through me. Nice incremental approach to incorpating and elaborating guide tones.

When I first switched fr classical to jazz 6 mos ago and saw "guidetones,' I was like 'what is this - skeletal remains of chords?' Getting it, very useful - yes they 'guide' ... These are my"go to" videos in the early a.m. before I start my own practicing. Great for inspiration, and getting the music part of my brain waked up. What's helpful? The incremental approach - very simple to complex (well, for us learners it's complex, you're at a whole 'nother stratosphere). Enjoy yr sabbatical semester! Well-deserved!

Barcelona Rocks and so does this lesson! Thank you Jeremy!

Thanks so much! I learn more applicable, useful elements from you and your videos. Your books are well written and easy to apply as well. So grateful!

Great lesson! thank you 👍

Barcelona Boogie Ballad Boppers. Excellent and informative 🌹⭐🌹

Barcelona indeed! Thank you for the excellent lesson.

Excellent lesson!

Hello JS !! The best class on Guid tone I've seen to date. I have a lot of good jazz books, but your book has come to occupy first place in my studies. My intention was to follow your book by doing a study, first superficial, and then go back and delve into it, taking more care of each topic, and going deeper into each one. But, in the first few pages, I realized that I wouldn't be able to do this, I gave up. Each topic is approached in an absolutely intelligent and creative way, which makes us feel bad about leaving it behind -- even committing to come back, as I said before. Today, right after seeing this class, I had the renewed joy of having already bought the book. Then I thought like this: Does the JS book have this particularity? That of making you happy as you continue your studies or watch the video lessons. I thank GOD for having been able to buy JS's book and ask for many blessings in the life of this great musician and teacher.

enjoy Barcelona, Jeremy! such great stuff here

Thank you, Jeremy. Barcelona, ENJOY! Interesting and immediately useful. 🌹🌹🌹🌹😎

So many great ideas here - many thanks, Jeremy. Have fun in Barcelona!

Very helpful. I'm waiting for your books to arrive...thank you so much!

This is just what I was looking for. Sound quality isn't the greatest but it's a tutorial, not a concert :) Thanks

Been following your videos since around the 3k follower mark, very happy that you're getting the attention that your content deserves! I really want to dig into this guide tone line concept. For a tune like Lady Bird, would you strictly stick to 3rds and 7ths and accept an occasional small leap or would you rather deviate to other chord tones to keep a stepwise motion going?

Hi Jeremy still always interesting I work on volume 2 are you intend to write a third volume best regards

Whoa Jeremy! You keep dropping gems like this … and … and I’m gonna be auditioning for the Ed Sullivan Show. Wait … that’s so … last century

Do you know the book "Forward Motion" by Hal Galper? some of the ideas here are shared with that book.

Are you offering the Jazz course at Fullerton this fall? If so, when should I apply?

Hi Jeremy! What piano are you using?

0:15 I knew there was a string orchestra hiding in there somewhere...

Barcelona! Enjoy your honeymoon, knowing that here in Australia your students are working hard…. With improvs sounding a less of a dogs breakfast. (If I may say so myself🫤)
