CECIL,I am working on these scales,it is helpful to me.Thank you for this video that you made

@gufra9835 Год назад

pleeeeease: NO paypal !!! Why no normal card paying? Sorry Cecil, me, as an old (70) guitarplayer, to say that! I´d long for your pdf!

@VPicksGuitarPicks 2 года назад

Wow! What a player! The dude does all that stuff and doesn't even look down at the fretboard. Amazing!

Excellent! Glad I found this. Great playing, man!

@classace78 2 года назад

Very creative and awesome! I really like the creative phrasing in these ii v's. I would have never thought about using a substitute major ii v phrase a major third apart in the following bar. That's awesome because it brings a colorful tension to the entire line. Nice! I'm getting this download. I also like that motivic phrasing development using the major second intervals from the minor pentatonic scales throughout the full ii v i. Excellent! Nice work Ceci! (And I'm a tenor sax player).

Born to be a jazz musician. How you play is much more just knowing the theory or the neck of the guitar. Great jazzer!!

@menlostevens1967 2 года назад

Way cool and helpful. I downloaded the book, getting started right away. Looking forward to more lessons. Awesome, thank you!

Hi Mr. Alexander excellent work and playing. I am blown away actually. Please ,please,please, (begging like James Brown lol) do some pdf packages on blues. Chords, chord substitutions, but especially licks and lines. I really like your technique and your approach. I especially like the slow blues jam video that you did with Mr. Fujita. Thanks so much.

Gives me an idea, what can be done with II V I. There must be a million phrases like this for this crucial chord sequence.

@Jamestele1 Год назад

I love your lessons, but I'm also blown away by how flowing and authentic your Jazz playing is . By authentic, I mean just that. Many players sound like they're doing an imitation of Benson, Martin, etc. You sound real.

@cademosley4886 Год назад

I've always heard about, on the V, using the minor scale a half step up to make an alt scale. But using the minor scale a half step down sounds wild. That'd be like b2, 2, 3, #4, 5, 6, maj7 over a V. Doesn't even have the dom7. Sounded good though. Funny to hear that it's cliche; it doesn't get advertised as much as other cliches.

@paulzilioli5458 2 года назад

Just purchased! Thank you Cecil for this invaluable content! Also excited to learn recently that you collaborate and teach with my great friend Mark Zaleski! Please do a similar “50 minor ii V i” package. I definitely would buy that as well!

@jazzlessonvideos 2 года назад

Thanks! We always love hearing what topics you’d like us to cover!

@Peppe73it 10 месяцев назад

The best way to practice it's slowly, is it?

@eternalstudent5754 Год назад

hi, really enjoyed your line explanations and tidbits. Do you have any video lessons with tabs showing your effortless fretboard navigation? Also, any more lick examples using a V7b5 construct, either in arpeggiated (bebop#3) or in tritone sub form. PS: Neat use of the 'whitfield' hickup (bebop#1)

@jazzlessonvideos Год назад

Tabs are included in all of Cecil's PDF Packages!

@boreed5734 Год назад

He's like a young George Benson, he plays a lot of lightning fast licks reminiscent of the early Benson days. I don't know if this guy is a prodigy or not but his skills is remarkable.

Big question. How does reading sheet music without tablature enhance your perception of music? Do you find it important to be able to read music in order to learn more quickly?

Hi Cecil, I really like your style and love listening to your playing. Will there bealso a II V I minor cadence package in the future ? Greetings from Germany, Wolfgang

@vaughndavis1920 2 года назад

Does the PDF package include an explanation of each phrase similar to what is done in the video?

@jazzlessonvideos 2 года назад

Every phrase is in all 12 keys, but only the video goes this in depth with analysis. Great to know this is something you’d like us to include in upcoming materials!

@AzSamad 2 года назад

@@jazzlessonvideos Yes I second what Vaughn mentioned. Having gotten the book first & then watching this video, I feel like I got more milleage from the book AFTER watching this video. Would be great if each phrase had a video breakdown like this to understand the substitution & concepts behind what Cecil is playing!

@msprofessr 2 года назад

Is this lesson applicable for a alto sax player?

@jazzlessonvideos 2 года назад

Yes! The tabs are included for guitar but all the sheet music is in treble clef and in all 12 keys. Any treble clef reading instrument will be able to read these phrases!
