This simple but effective exercise will give you a progressive approach to tackle any set of changes, from a basic ii V I all the way up to modal tunes and Coltrane Changes! Let's discuss...
By assigning a fixed number of chord tones per bar we can take advantage of the final note using it as a chromatic springboard into the new bar. Mastering this technique is the key to jazz vocabulary and applying the ideas you hear from your favourite players. Good luck!

I have watched alot of jazz guitar videos on youtube and this approach is the most revolutionary. Thanks a heap!

Great lesson, you’re a good teacher.

@CharlesHarrisonMusicTuition Год назад

Thanks Rolf, I'm delighted to hear that you found this one useful. Cheers for the kind words

Where do those typical jazz tones come from? Is it from an amp or pedal or just the choice of chords and notes? Even the tempo lets you know you are listening to a Jazz based progression or piece of playing.

@CharlesHarrisonMusicTuition 9 месяцев назад

It's really just the amp settings and how you play the instrument. I basically sound the same with any rig as long as it can do 'cleanish' we can play jazz!

Great exercise, Charles. Pretty frustrating hahaha

@CharlesHarrisonMusicTuition 2 года назад

Surprisingly tough I've found!! What are you working on at the moment? Cheers Bjorn

@@CharlesHarrisonMusicTuition So I was searching for modern fusion phrasing videos and landed on your channel. I've typically been self-taught and so looking for different ways to approach improvisation. Love your content man, super helpful! Great explanations for me to adopt the process so I can add more pain to my life haha

@CharlesHarrisonMusicTuition 2 года назад

Delighted to hear that! Regarding phrasing all there is to do is learn to control our articulation and technique, and listen to loads of players who play the way we'd like to. You might find the odd helpful tip here on my channel and others, but get listening!!! Thanks again

Hi Bjorn, just letting you know you can sign up for an upcoming free two week course which I'll be launching around the end of May. It'll be focused on all the things which I believe to be important but are often overlooked in super flashy guitar magazines and websites. I hope you're well and that I'll see you over there, cheers! forms.gle/DSMfVs2JEA5V3Rhg8

I have watched a few videos on this now , but everything is being played in isolation … I can’t help but imagine this just sounds like noise over a chord/chord progression… any good examples of this being used in a musical context ?

@CharlesHarrisonMusicTuition 10 месяцев назад

Hi Neil, you are right in your observation and that critical ear will help you immensely to get the most out of exercises like this. You won't find playing examples of these are they aren't really 'vocabulary' in and of themselves but simply a stepping stone towards creating vocabulary. Check out my recent video regarding creating your own Bebop scales. There are a few overlaps with this concept but in a completely different context. To play like your favourite players you'll need to work on exercises that develop your ear and fingers towards certain elements of the target style (like the approach notes we're practicing here) and couple that with active listening, a critical ear and writing your own ideas to start to move in the right direction. Thanks so much for your comment 🙏
