Really nice breakdown, I have struggled with the conventional notation 4x3, your 3x4 makes way more sense. Great improv breaks with straight up material. Thank You!
Thanks, Donald! Thinking about the systems broken up into bars of 4 does make this tune much more intuitive, if you ask me! :) You might also want to check out this shorter lesson on Solar for additional materials on the tune! www.jazzguitarlessons.net/blog/solar
Amazing lesson! It was really helpful to see how you work on smaller things within the form (the key area, the dominant chords) rather than tackle everything within the tune at once. I definitely need to start working that way.
Breaking things down into manageable portions is definitely the best approach you can take when it comes to the huge challenge that is jazz. Keep at it! :) Thanks for the feedback, and glad you liked the lesson. I might also recommend the lesson on rhythm changes (www.jazzguitarlessons.net/blog/introduction-to-rhythm-changes-for-jazz-guitar) for a similar thing.
Thanks Hermann! Very glad I hit the mark for you. :) If you enjoyed this one, you might also wanna check this out, with some similar format and instruction: www.jazzguitarlessons.net/blog/introduction-to-rhythm-changes-for-jazz-guitar
Hi guys, i wanna say at the beginning this is my opinion. When i was try to get the concepts behind improvisation in jazz guitar i watched so many of this youtubers pretending to give you the right informations about it. They are all the same and they won't at the end and you will waste a lot of time. Go studying somewhere else, you ll do much better imho. Cheers to everyone.
Fenomenal lesson! Love it! It's like a reverse engineering where you show all the secrets behind the scene of this great piece 🙂🎸 I wish you could do the similar lesson for Question and Answer of Pat Metheny...is it possible?
Hey, thanks so much! :) If you're curious, you can check out this blogpost explaining how I get the sound that I do! www.jazzguitarlessons.net/blog/how-do-i-get-the-jazz-sound
Jazz Guitar Lessons I tried the link from the RU-vid lesson. It went to a 404 page which had an active sidebar. I scrolled down to solar but that link also did not work. I didn’t try from the website, I’ll wait and try the lesson link again later, I really like this take...! 😎
I appreciatethe lesson. BUT! Don't say we are going to start playing now and then keep talking for 2 more minutes. More talk is only talk and it is annoying . Stop saying what you are going to say and JUST SAY IT. Don't turn your camera on until your thoughts are organized.
